Aggies complete feat literally never in program history

Texas A&M accomplished the feat never seen before in program history, improved to 8-0 for the first time as a member SEC and winning at LSU’s Tiger Stadium for the first time since 1994. Third place Agis erased the halftime deficit and valid until a 49-25 win over no. 20 LSU to keep their own College Football Playoff hope lives on.

After trailing 18-14 at halftime, Texas A&M erupted for 35 straight points to silence the crowd and secure one of its most significant victories in recent memory. Texas A&M quarterback Marcell Reed led the way with 202 passing yards, two touchdowns, 108 rushing yards and two scores. Meanwhile, wide receiver KC Concepcion electrified the game with a 79-yard punt return touchdown in the third quarter.

“I keep saying this: It’s not about the past,” Aggies head coach Mike Elko he said. “We have to stop worrying about the past, thinking about the past, talking about the past. I’m excited about what this team is doing right now. “This team is doing some really special things.”

Texas A&M’s second-half dominance was fueled by poise and discipline. The defense forced four consecutive LSU punts and finished with seven sacks and 11 tackles for loss. The offensive line gave Reid time and space, and the Aggies scored touchdowns on their first three possessions after halftime to take control.

Texas A&M is making Aggies history every week

Texas A&M scored 40 or more points in four straight games for the first time in program history, tying an SEC record. Their 49 points were the most by any visiting team against a ranked LSU team at Tiger Stadium since Georgia scored 52 in 2008.

The win also continued the Aggies’ trend of adapting to every challenge this season. They’ve won close games at Notre Dame, battled through physical battles against Auburn and Arkansas, and now they’ve earned a win on one of college football’s toughest stages.

“There’s definitely a lot more to prove, Reid said. “And I feel like a lot of people in this country still don’t respect us as a team. So, no, we’re not trying to prove anybody wrong. We’re just going to prove ourselves right.”

The Aggies will now enter their bye week undefeated and in firm control of their SEC and College Football Playoff destiny.
