Tonight in College Station, three is the magic number.
Nebraska Vs. Texas A&M: Fierce Field Goal Battle Tips Toward Texas A&M
Texas A&M’s Ryan Bullock just nailed his third field goal of the night, giving the Aggies a three-point 9-6 lead. It’s the third scoring possession for both teams in the second half, the third red zone drive that has ended with a field goal try for the Aggies, and marks the third drive of 60+ yards for Texas A&M.
In case you were worried that this particular game was getting interesting for anyone but partisans, Big 12 fans, or defense diehards: it’s not. But it is close, and might yet go to overtime if Nebraska can get anything going on its last drive. Alex Henery, remember, is one of the nation’s finest field goal kickers, having made 65 in his career.
All Nebraska needs is a spark and some yardage. It remains to be seen whether a hobbled Nebraska offense, beset by penalty woes all night, can provide.
