No. 3 Texas A&M's Dominant Defense Overwhelms No. 19 Missouri's Freshman QB in 38-17 Victory

Texas A&M’s defense pressured Missouri’s freshman QB, while Aggies’ rushing and special teams plays secured their undefeated season and ended Mizzou’s playoff chances.

  • Yesterday, Texas A&M Aggies defeated Missouri Tigers 38-17 at Faurot Field, Columbia, Mo., ending Mizzou's College Football Playoff hopes.
  • Missouri entered the game missing key quarterbacks, forcing true freshman Matt Zollers to start; Zollers completed 7-of-22 for 77 yards and faced sacks and a strip sack late.
  • Key plays included Marcel Reed completing 20-of-29 passes for 221 yards and two touchdowns, with a fake punt and a 48-yard screen TD by KC Concepcion extending the lead.
  • The Aggies remained undefeated and will host South Carolina next Saturday, while Missouri hosts Mississippi State on Nov. 15, after the 38-17 victory.
  • The Tigers' ground success did not mask repeated stalls at midfield despite Jamal Roberts and Ahmad Hardy each rushing over 100 yards, while questions remain about Missouri passing game after the freshman start.
