No, you read that right. The Sooners got their Crimson and Cream butts handed to them on a Maroon and White platter! OU came into Kyle Field touting the #1 ranked defense, but it was the Aggies' defense that wreaked havoc, and the Aggie offense seemed to do whatever it pleased with the Sooners. The Aggies quickly scored on their first possession and then forced and recovered a fumble on the Sooner's first possession. The Aggies had a 14-0 lead in no time. But before you could blink, Japhus Brown was returning an INT 33 yards at the end of the 1st quarter to put the Aggies up 21-0. The Aggies built a 31-0 lead before Danny Gorrer slipped on the turf, allowing Juaquin Iglesias to make an 80 yard TD reception and put the Sooners on the board. The Aggies added another touchdown before the end of the half to take a 38-7 lead. It seemed like the Coach gave the Sooners one helluva pep talk in the locker room, as they came out in the 3rd playing more like the Sooners we all know and...uhhh....never mind. Juaquin Iglesias returned the first kickoff of the 2nd half 94 yards for a touchdown. After stopping the Aggies on defense, Sam Bradford tossed a 62 yard touchdown pass to Malcolm Kelly to further cut into the massive Aggie lead. That would be the last time the Sooners scored in the game. Seeing their lead being hacked away, the Aggies made the adjustments and added a TD of their own at the end of the 3rd to stop the bleeding. In the 4th quarter, the Wrecking Crew was out in full force, pushing the Sooners backwards with 8 sacks (5 by Mark Dodge alone), several tackles for losses, an INT by Devin Gregg, and a safety by Mark Dodge. The Aggies scored yet another TD, after which Syzmanski missed the PAT. He redeemed himself later by making another field goal. With the blowout win, the Aggies are 3-0 (2-0 Big XII) and have handed losses to 3 straight ranked opponents. And for the 3rd straight time Texas A&M Quarterback Stephen McGee was chosen as the Big XII and NCAA Offensive Player of Week, going 19 of 40 for 429 yards and 4 TDs, rushing for 90 yards and 1 TD. Whispers are starting to be heard in College Station of another Aggie Heisman winner in Stephen McGee. It's a long season, so we'll just have to see. Next week should be a good one as the Aggies head to Georgia to play the Bulldogs.
