SMU Vs. Texas A&M Score: Mustangs Score After Quarterback Change, But Aggies Answer Back

The SMU Mustangs changed quarterbacks after two series. Kyle Padron threw interceptions on both, which led to June Jones to put J.J. McDermott under center. That certainly lit a spark under the Mustangs as they marched down the field for 60 yards and a touchdown. But a later Aggies touchdown has them up, 20-7.

Running back Zach Line picked up 45 yards on the drive, including a 27-yard rush that set up his one-yard touchdown run. The 27-yard play had originally been one yard longer and been called a touchdown. However, a review of the play had him down at the one-yard line.

SMU attempted an onside kick, but it failed, leaving the Aggies at SMU's 31-yard line. Cyrus Gray picked a three-yard touchdown run, but the extra point was blocked. The Mustangs almost ran it back, but they ultimately fell short.
