Texas A&M (4-1, 2-0 SEC) defeated the Arkansas Razorbacks (3-2, 1-1 SEC) 21-17 in a game that featured an Aggie defense holding the Razorback’s running game to just 100 yards. At the same time, the pass rush harassed quarterback Taylen Green throughout the afternoon.
Offensively, Texas A&M’s run game struggled in the first half before junior running back Le’Veon Moss picked things up late, rushing for 90 of his 117 yards in the second half. Quarterback Marcel Reed, who started his third consecutive game this season, completed 11/22 for 163 yards and two touchdowns through the air while rushing for another score.
However, Reed’s accuracy issues downfield continued to be an issue, though his accuracy increased between the numbers, completing 71% of his passes for 384 yards and three touchdowns this season. How will the offensive game plan change next Saturday before facing Missouri? We shall see, but leaning on the offense’s strengths is key.
With the win, Texas A&M’s positioning in the newest AP Top 25 Poll was very confusing, as the Aggies looked to have dropped out of the rankings after an SEC victory. However, Texas A&M is tied with UNLV at No. 25, as the site is fixing the glitch.
