Texas A&M (5-3, 3-2 SEC) was in dire need of a victory after the bye week, previously dropping their last two SEC matchups in close losses to Alabama and Tennessee. Facing a beatable South Carolina team who were also coming off of consecutive losses, head coach Jimbo Fisher’s shaky future needed a jolt of energy, coming in the form of a blowout home victory.
Behind yet another impressive defensive effort led by star linebacker Edgerrin Cooper (7 tackles, one sack, one TFL) and safety Bryce Anderson (7 tackles, two sacks, 2.5 TFLS), the Aggies offense, still a painfully slow work in progress, did find the end zone three times in the first half, including an impressive second quarter explosion capped by by quarterback Max Johnson’s 45-yard strike to do-it-all wide receiver Ainias with to take a 21-7 lead into halftime.
After the game, every Aggie fan, media member, and general Texas A&M hater made their way to social media to either congratulate or continue to mock the Maroon & White in an always entertaining fashion.
