Aggies face old Big 12 Foe Oklahoma in Cotton
Texas A&M will be seeking its first 11-win season since 1998 and fourth in program history
when the Aggies take on old Big 12 foe Oklahoma in the 2013 AT&T Cotton Bowl on Jan. 4,
2013 at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Texas A&M (10-2 overall, 6-2 vs. the SEC) will be
seeking its most wins since the Big 12 Championship season in 1998 when the Aggies finished
with an 11-3 record.
• A familiar opponent, Texas A&M has faced Oklahoma every season since the formation of the Big 12 Conference in 1996. Oklahoma held an 11-5 advantage in Big 12 games from 1996-2011. The two teams have never
faced off in a bowl game.
• In the overall series, Oklahoma holds a 19-11 advantage. The two teams have split the past two games with

(4-8). Ten of the Aggies’ appearances in Dallas have come in the last 28 seasons (since 1986). A&M’s most
recent win in the Cotton Bowl was a 35-10 win over Notre Dame in the 1988 Classic.
• The 2013 Cotton Bowl will mark the Aggies’ fifth appearance in Cowboys Stadium since its debut in 2009.
The Aggies have played at least one game in the home of the Dallas Cowboys in every year of its existence.
A&M is still seeking its first victory in the palatial stadium.

“maroon Goons” paving the way
Paving the way for the Aggies’ record-setting offense is the biggest offensive front in school
history, which features a pair of tackles that have been projected to be NFL first-round draft picks
in the future. The starting five, self-titled the “Maroon Goons,” of senior Patrick Lewis (C), juniors
Luke Joeckel (OT) and Jake Matthews (OT) and sophomores Cedric Ogbuehi (OG) and Jarvis Harrison (OG) weigh in at 1,542 pounds or 308.4 per goon.
Joeckel and Matthews have been projected as first-round picks by several sources, and Joeckel won the Outland Trophy. Lewis was on the watch list for the Rimington Trophy (most outstanding center).

Moore excels with hand in dirt
Junior Damontre Moore has been
a stalwart for the Aggies in his first season
with his hand on the ground at defensive
end after spending his previous two seasons at outside linebacker. The consensus All-American leads the Aggies with 80
tackles, and he ranks in the top 10 nationally in both sacks and tackles for loss. The
last defensive lineman to lead the Aggies
in tackles was Sam Adams, who led the
way with 78 tackles in his All-America season in 1993. In fact, only two defensive linemen have led the Aggies
in tackles in the last 40 years: Adams and two-time All-American Ray
Childress.

ATTENDANCE: 32,016 • TV: FSN
COLLEGE STATION (AP) — Mike Gillislee ran for 83 yards and two touchdowns and No. 24 Florida shut
down Texas A&M's offense in the second half in a 20-17 win in the Aggies' first Southeastern Conference
game after moving from the Big 12.
Florida trailed 17-10 at halftime after a first half where Texas A&M's offense under new coach Kevin
Sumlin pretty much did what it wanted. Things changed in the second half as the Gators clamped down
and forced punts each of A&M's six possessions after the break.
Caleb Sturgis helped Florida cut A&M's lead to 17-13 with a 25-yard field goal early in the third
quarter.
Florida quarterback Jeff Driskel looked indecisive most of the day and was sacked eight times. But he
made a play when he had to, finding Omarius Hines on a 39-yard completion to propel a drive early in
the fourth quarter.
Gillislee finished it off, evading a couple of defenders and then tight-roping the sideline on a 12-yard
touchdown run to put Florida up 20-17. Gillislee had a 4 yard score in the first quarter.
Driskel also came up big late in the game with a 21-yard run to give the Gators a first down and allow
them to run out the clock.
Texas A&M freshman quarterback Johnny Manziel threw for 173 yards and ran for 60 more, but he
couldn't move A&M's offense after halftime.
Saturday was Texas A&M's opener after the Aggies and Louisiana Tech postponed last week's game
until Oct. 13 because of Hurricane Isaac.
The Aggies' second half offensive woes ruined a great day for their defense. Jonathan Stewart finished
with 17 tackles and Damontre Moore had three sacks.
Manziel, who was the first freshman quarterback to start a opener for the Aggies since 1944, looked
great early.
A&M's first drive ended with a 27-yard field goal on their first drive.
The Gators soon took a 7-3 lead on a 4-yard touchdown run by Gillislee on their opening drive.
Manziel really heated up on the second drive, using his arm and his feet to move the Aggies down the
field. His 11-yard touchdown scamper put A&M back on top 10-7 early in the second quarter.
Then the defense went to work. The Aggies collected three sacks on Florida's next possession and
quickly forced a punt.
Texas A&M used a bit of trickery en route to their next score. They went with an end-around receiver
pass from Kenric McNeal to Mike Evans to gain 27 yards on second-down. Christine Michael finished off
the drive when he took the direct snap and bulled into the end zone for a 1-yard touchdown to extend
the lead to 17-7.
Texas A&M's fifth sack of the game forced Florida to attempt a 51-yard field goal in the second quarter.
Sturgis missed it, but A&M called a timeout, giving him another shot -- and he nailed the second one
to cut the lead to 17-10. It was the seventh field goal of 50 yards or more in his career to set a school
record.
Driskel was 13 of 16 for 162 yards and Jordan Reed had five receptions for 59 yards.
DALLAS (AP) -- Quarterback Johnny Manziel accounted for 418 total yards and six touchdowns in
three quarters, and Texas A&M overcame a sluggish start to beat SMU 48-3
Manziel threw for four touchdowns and a school-freshman-record 294 yards. He also had 13 carries
for 124 yards and a pair of a scoring runs.
Texas A&M (1-1) racked up 605 yards in offense and bounced back after losing its Southeastern
Conference opener last week to No. 18 Florida.
SMU (1-2) suffered its most lopsided home loss since 2002, when it dropped a 52-6 contest to
Oklahoma State.
Chase Hover kicked a 25-yard field goal in the third quarter for SMU's only points.
Freshman Mike Evans had 123 yards receiving and Uzoma Nwachukwu caught a pair of touchdown
passes for the Aggies, who are 11-0-1 against their former Southwest Conference rivals since 1984.
SMU's Zach Line rushed for 104 yards for his 17th career 100-yard game. That is second all-time in
school history behind NFL great Eric Dickerson.
Against Florida, Manziel became the Aggies' first freshman starting quarterback in an opener since
1944.
Texas A&M started slow Saturday after a shaky second half against the Gators. The Aggies punted
three times in the first quarter and failed on fourth-and-2 from the SMU 34.
Texas A&M's Taylor Bertolet missed a 23-yard field goal before Manziel and the offense put up 20
straight points to close out the first half.
Manziel found Ryan Swope for a 29-yard touchdown pass midway through second quarter.
The dual-threat quarterback then used his running ability two drives later when he scampered up the
middle for a 48-yard TD. On the extra point, SMU's Margus Hunt blocked his 16th career kick - which is
second all-time in NCAA history.
The 6-foot-8 Hunt set the NCAA record last weekend by blocking his ninth career field goal.
The Aggies stretched their lead to 20-0 when Manziel - who was 20 of 36 passing - scrambled to his
right and hooked up with Nwachukwu for a 26-yard touchdown pass with 1:03 left in the first half.
On Texas A&M's first drive of the second half, Manziel was about to be sacked before he broke free
from linebacker Taylor Reed. He scrambled to his left and lofted a pass to Kenric McNeal, who ran in for
a 42-yard touchdown.
Manziel added a 15-yard touchdown run and a 12-yard scoring pass to Nwachukwu in the third.
Jameill Showers replaced Manziel on the first drive of the fourth quarter.
Manziel broke the freshman passing record of Kevin Murray, who threw for 280 yards against Rice in
1983.

COLLEGE STATION (AP) — Johnny Manziel threw for three touchdowns and ran for two more by
halftime as Texas A&M built a big lead and coasted to a 70-14 win over South Carolina St.
Two of Manziel's touchdown passes went to Uzoma Nwachukwu. All four of Nwachukwu's receptions
this season have been for touchdowns.
The Aggies (2-1) were up 14-7 after the first quarter before Manziel scored on runs of 39 and 20 yards
to give A&M a commanding lead.
Ben Malena had two rushing touchdowns in the first half and Texas A&M led 49-7 at halftime.
Dustin Harris had a 96-yard punt return for a touchdown and finished with a school and Southeastern
Conference record 246 punt return yards for A&M.
Richard Cue threw for 189 yards and a touchdown for South Carolina St. (1-3) of the Football
Championship Subdivision.
Manziel was 15 of 20 for 174 yards passing and added 78 yards rushing on eight carries. Malena
finished with 88 yards on 11 carries. Malena put A&M up 7-0 with a 4-yard run in the first quarter.
Manziel found Nwachukwu later in the quarter on a 9-yard touchdown pass to make it 14-0 Texas
A&M.
The Bulldogs got within 14-7 when Jalen Simmons found a big hole and ran 17 yards for a touchdown.
That drive was helped when Steven Campbell was flagged 15 yards for roughing the passer on a blow to
the head of Cue.
Manziel's first rushing touchdown was a nifty one. He hurdled a defender near the line of scrimmage
and zigzagged through the South Carolina State defense for a 39-yard touchdown to extend the lead to
21-7.
He used his feet again on A&M's next possession, making it 28-7 on a 20-yard run that he capped with
a dive into the end zone less than four minutes later.
Manziel went back to the air for the next score, finding Kenric McNeal on a 30-yard touchdown pass to
leave A&M ahead 35-7.
Nwachukwu kept up his streak later in the second quarter when he caught a short pass from Manziel
and evaded a defender before bouncing outside and barreling into the end zone to complete the
37-yard score.
Malena wrapped up the Texas A&M's dominant first half with a 50-yard run.
Harris returned a third quarter punt 96 yards for a touchdown to extend A&M's lead to 56-7. It was
the second longest punt return in school history.
Michael played the second half and finished with 26 yards and had a 5-yard touchdown run early in
the fourth quarter.
Lennel Elmore scored on a 39-yard pass from Cue to make it 63-14 with about 12 minutes remaining.
COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) -- Johnny Manziel threw for a school-record 453 yards and three touchdowns and
ran for another score to lead Texas A&M over Arkansas 58-10 for the Aggies' first Southeastern Conference win.
Arkansas led 10-7 after one quarter before the Aggies scored 51 straight points to take the lead and cruise to
the win.
Manziel added 104 yards rushing to also break the school and SEC records for yards of total offense with 557.
Tyler Wilson threw for 373 yards and a touchdown, but he threw two interceptions as Arkansas was shut out
after the first quarter.
Steven Terrell had two interceptions and Tramain Jacobs returned a fumble for a touchdown for Texas A&M.
Ryan Swope had five receptions for 141 yards and a touchdown, recording his school-record 10th career
100-yard game. Thomas Johnson added 108 yards receiving and Mike Evans had 83 yards and a score as A&M
piled up 716 yards of total offense.
Manziel, a freshman, has accounted for 15 touchdowns in the Aggies' last three games.
Texas A&M's 58 points are the most it has scored against the Razorbacks in the 69-game history of the series.
Manziel, who finished 29 of 38, went 5 of 5 on the first drive, capped by a 4-yard touchdown pass to Mike Evans
to make it 7-0. Evans bent down to scoop the pass before it hit the ground for his first career touchdown.
The Aggie defense forced a punt, but Taylor Bertolet's 39-yard field goal attempt on the next possession was
wide right.
Wilson found Knile Davis on a short pass that he took 64 yards for a touchdown to tie the game about 7 minutes
before halftime.
A 26-yard field goal by Zach Hocker gave Arkansas a 10-7 lead near the end of the first quarter.
The second quarter was all A&M, with Bertolet redeeming himself after his early miss with a 46-yard field goal
to tie it early in the quarter. His 26-yard field goal about 4 minutes later gave A&M a 13-10 lead.
Terrell's first interception came on the next drive by Arkansas. He fumbled at the end of the return, but it
bounced back into his hands to give A&M the ball at midfield. A 29-yard run by Ben Malena got the drive going,
and he finished it off with an 11-yard touchdown reception to push the lead to 20-10.
A tough drive by Arkansas where the team fumbled twice, but recovered both times, followed to force the
Razorbacks to punt.
The Aggies went deep on the next play, with Manziel using a pump fake and Swope a double move to get
behind the defense for an 80-yard touchdown reception.
Things weren't any better for the Razorbacks after halftime, and Wilson's first pass of the second half was
intercepted by Terrell. He returned it 30 yards and A&M extended the lead to 30-10 with a 21-yard field goal.
Christine Michael bulled into the end zone on a 10-yard run later in the third quarter to leave A&M up 37-10.
Damontre Moore forced a fumble by Davis, which Jacobs scooped up and returned 28 yards for a touchdown on
the Razorbacks' first play after Michael's touchdown.
Manziel capped his scoring for the day when he circled around and even went backward before zipping into the
end zone on a 6-yard run with about 10 minutes left to make it 51-10. Trey Williams added a 13-yard touchdown
run late in the fourth quarter.
Cobi Hamilton finished with 11 receptions for 162 yards for Arkansas, and Davis had 65 yards rushing.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 13 • INDEPENDENCE STADIUM • SHREVEPORT, LA.
OXFORD, Miss. (AP) -- Johnny Manziel threw for 191 yards and a touchdown and rushed for 129 yards
and another score, and Texas A&M rallied from a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to beat Mississippi
30-27.
Manziel suffered through a tough night until late in the fourth quarter, when he led two touchdown
drives. He rushed for a 29-yard touchdown on the first and then found Ryan Swope for a 20-yard TD pass
with 1:46 remaining for the go-ahead score.
Texas A&M won despite a season-high six turnovers, including four fumbles and two interceptions.
Ole Miss made a final drive but Texas A&M's Toney Hurd, Jr., intercepted a Bo Wallace pass and the
Aggies were able to run out the clock.
The Rebels lost their 16th straight conference game dating back to 2010. Jeff Scott rushed for 108
yards and a touchdown. Wallace completed 20 of 34 passes for 305 yards, one touchdown and two
interceptions. He also rushed for a touchdown.
Ole Miss had a 27-17 lead midway through the fourth quarter and Texas A&M pinned on its own
1-yard line with less than eight minutes remaining.
But Manziel connected on a 32-yard, third-down pass to Mike Evans to give the Aggies some breathing
room. Then in just two plays, Texas A&M drove the rest of the field for a stunning touchdown. Ben
Malena gashed the Rebels' defense for 36 yards before Manziel rushed for a 29-yard score - dancing past
several Ole Miss would-be tacklers - to make it 27-23.
On the ensuing drive, first-year Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze made a questionable decision to go for it
on fourth-and-1 in his own territory.
It turned out to be a disastrous call.
Scott was stuffed at the Ole Miss 39 and Texas A&M needed just four plays for Manziel to find Swope
for the game-winning score.
Manziel completed 17 of 26 passes. Mike Evans caught eight passes for 105 yards.
He looked much more mortal against the Rebels - at least for a while. There were a couple of huge
plays, like his 38-yard scramble in the third quarter to push the Aggies deep into Ole Miss territory. But
his risk-taking had a downside, too, like four plays later when he lost a fumble on the Ole Miss 21 to stop
an almost certain scoring drive.
Manziel made another crucial mistake early in the fourth quarter, deftly avoiding the Ole Miss rush
before making a bad pass over the middle that was intercepted by Cody Prewitt.
But the precocious quarterback wasn't fazed, and engineered the stunning comeback.
Texas A&M struck first on the opening drive after Malena burst through a huge hole and ran
untouched 59 yards for a touchdown and 7-0 lead.
But the Ole Miss defense tightened considerably after that hiccup, while the offense improved as the
first half progressed.
The Rebels took a 17-10 lead on a 14-yard run by Wallace - one play after he hit Randall Mackey on a
68-yard pass.
Then the Aggies fumbled on their own 35 - their third turnover of the half - and the Rebels had a
chance to create some separation on the scoreboard.
But Ole Miss couldn't take advantage. Wallace was hit as he threw and the ball fell right to Texas A&M
linebacker Steven Jenkins, who ran for the easy 37-yard touchdown that tied the game at 17 going into
halftime.
SHREVEPORT, La. (AP) -- Johnny Manziel accounted for six touchdowns, including two to fend off
a late rally, and No. 22 Texas A&M held on for a 59-57 win over 23rd-ranked Louisiana Tech to hand the
Bulldogs their first loss.
Louisiana Tech trailed by 27 points early before mounting a furious second half rally attempt capped
by a 13-yard touchdown reception by Ray Holley to cut the lead to two points with 38 seconds left. But
Colby Cameron's throw fell incomplete and the Aggies had the win.
Louisiana Tech had cut the lead to 2 earlier in the fourth quarter before Manziel answered with a
17-yard touchdown pass to Thomas Johnson to extend the lead to 53-44 with seven minutes left.
Texas A&M forced a punt and Manziel scored on a 72-yard run with about two minutes left and the
kick failed.
The scrappy Bulldogs wouldn't go away though, and Quinton Patton scored on a 62-yard reception
seconds later. They then recovered an onside kick which led to their last touchdown.
Manziel ran for 181 yards and three touchdowns and threw for 395 yards and three more scores.
These teams entered the game averaging more than 1,000 yards between them, and as Saturday night
crept into early Sunday morning, they outdid even those outlandish standards.
A&M finished with 678 yards of offense and Louisiana Tech had 615. Tech's output is even more
impressive considering the offense sputtered in the first quarter and had just 33 yards.
The Bulldogs, who entered the national rankings this week for the first time since 1999, saw their
nation-best 12-game regular-season winning streak snapped. It was their first regular-season loss since
Oct. 1, 2011 against Hawaii.
The Aggies led by 23 in the third quarter before the furious comeback attempt by Louisiana Tech.
The Bulldogs reeled off 21 straight points capped by an interception return for a touchdown to cut the
lead to 46-44 with 12 minutes left.
A 21-yard touchdown run by Kenneth Dixon, which he finished with a defender hanging off of him,
cut A&M's lead to 46-36 early in the fourth quarter. The first 2-point conversion attempt failed, but a
pass interference call gave the Bulldogs another shot and Cameron ran it in.
Shakeil Lucas intercepted a pass from Manziel seconds later and returned it 5 yards for a touchdown, but Cameron's 2-point conversion attempt was intercepted to leave A&M with a 46-44 lead.
Texas A&M controlled the game until halftime, but had trouble defending Patton in the second half
and were also hurt by penalty after penalty. They finished with 19 for 165.
Patton finished with 21 receptions for 233 yards and four scores.
He scored on a 2-yard touchdown reception with about nine minutes left in the third quarter to cut
Texas A&M's lead to 39-23. Manziel answered with a 2-yard run before Patton did it again, scoring on a
5-yard pass from Cameron to make it 36-30 later in the third quarter.
The teams played at Independence Stadium in Shreveport, La., which is about 70 miles from
Louisiana Tech's campus in Ruston, La. But the crowd of more than 40,000 was pretty evenly split
between A&M and Louisiana Tech fans.
Louisiana Tech entered the game averaging 53 points a game, which are the third most in the country. But early on the Bulldogs looked nothing like the team that had been doing that kind of damage.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 20 • KYLE FIELD • COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27 • JORDAN-HARE STADIUM • AUBURN, ALA.
COLLEGE STATION (AP) — Jeremy Hill rushed for a career-high 127 yards and a touchdown, and the
sixth-ranked Tigers rallied from an early deficit to beat No. 20 Texas A&M 24-19 at Kyle Field
Michael Ford also had a touchdown run and Zach Mettenberger threw a TD pass to Kadron Boone for
the Tigers, who scored 21 points off four Texas A&M turnovers.
A&M outplayed the Tigers for much of the first half and led 12-0, LSU's largest deficit since the
national championship game against Alabama in January. But the Aggies gave away two costly turnovers
just before halftime, and Boone's diving catch in the end zone with 11 seconds left put LSU up 14-12 at
the break. Hill finished off A&M with a 47-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.
Johnny Manziel, A&M's dual-threat redshirt freshman quarterback, completed 29 of 56 passes for
276 yards, but threw three interceptions and was sacked three times. He was the SEC's leading rusher
coming into the game and was held to 27 yards on 17 carries.
A&M started strong, though, moving the ball easily on its opening drive and taking a 6-0 lead on
Christine Michael's short touchdown run. LSU hadn't given up a first-quarter score in four games.
LSU went three-and-out on its initial series, and the defense looked a step slow again when A&M got
the ball back. Manziel got plenty of protection from the Aggies' offensive line and threaded a 21-yard
pass to Mike Evans for a first down at the LSU 34. Taylor Bertolet kicked a 32-yard field goal to put A&M
up 9-0.
LSU's defense generated better pressure on Manziel as the half wore on. The Tigers, meanwhile,
sputtered for most of the half against the same Aggies' defense that gave up 615 yards in last week's
59-57 win at Louisiana Tech.
The LSU offense got the kick-start it needed when freshman cornerback Jalen Collins intercepted
Manziel at the LSU 39. Ford gained 13 yards on a fourth-and-1, then raced 20 yards down the sideline
for the Tigers' first touchdown with 1:49 left before halftime.
Ben Malena fumbled at the A&M 41 with just over a minute left in the half. The Aggies looked as if
they might escape, but Boone made a diving, over-the-shoulder catch in the end zone with 11 seconds
remaining.
Mettenberger went 5-for-16 and the Tigers mustered only 147 yards in the first half. The Aggies
amassed 256 yards in the first half -- 45 more yards than LSU allowed against South Carolina last week.
LSU started a drive early in the fourth quarter with eight straight running plays, gaining at least five
yards on seven of them. Hill ran 18 yards up the middle to the A&M 9 before Jarvis Landry lost yardage
on a pass by Mettenberger toward the sideline, and Drew Alleman's 28-yard field goal put LSU up 17-12
with 8:35 remaining.
Trey Williams returned the ensuing kickoff 76 yards to the LSU 16. Linebacker Kevin Minter nearly
sacked Manziel on second down and Manziel's throw to Uzoma Nwachukwu fell incomplete on third
down. Bertolet shanked a 33-yard attempt and LSU regained possession with 7:28 left.
LSU junior cornerback Tharold Simon put it away when he intercepted Manziel's pass and returned it
to the A&M 46. Hill then burst up the middle and sprinted to the end zone, going over 100 yards for the
second straight week. He rushed for a career-high 124 yards against South Carolina last week.
Malena finished a quick A&M drive with a 5-yard touchdown run with 1:17 left. But Odell Beckham, Jr.
cleanly fielded the onside kick, and the Tigers held on.
AUBURN, Ala. (AP) -- Johnny Manziel ran for three touchdowns and passed for two more -- all in a
little more than a half -- and No. 22 Texas A&M beat struggling Auburn 63-21.
On eight possessions led by Manziel, Texas A&M scored seven touchdowns. The only non-scoring drive
run by Manziel ended with a missed 48-yard field goal by Taylor Bertolet on the final play of the first half.
Manziel was in the game for only one series in the third quarter before watching the remainder of the
rout from the sideline. He completed 16 of 23 passes for 230 yards and two touchdowns and had nine
carries for 90 yards and three scores.
The Aggies gained 671 total yards, the most ever allowed by Auburn, in their first game at Jordan-Hare
Stadium. Texas A&M led 42-7 at halftime and 49-7 after Manziel's final possession.
Manziel made an impressive recovery after three interceptions in a 24-19 loss to LSU last week.
Auburn coach Gene Chizik, looking for a spark for an offense that ranked among the bottom three in
the nation in total yards and points per game, tried three quarterbacks.
Jonathan Wallace, a freshman, provided much-needed hope for the Tigers by completing 6 of 9 passes
for 122 yards and two touchdowns. He threw 27-yard scoring passes to Emory Blake and C.J. Uzomah.
Wallace played behind starter Clint Moseley, who was pulled after only one series, and Kiehl Frazier,
who completed 6 of 11 passes for 89 yards.
Jameill Showers and Matt Joeckel played behind Manziel. Showers led a scoring drive, capped by Trey
Williams' 1-yard touchdown run, on his first possession.
Auburn's defense finally made a stop with Joeckel at quarterback, forcing Texas A&M's first punt. It
drew sarcastic cheers from the fans with 38 seconds remaining in the third quarter.
Williams had 19 carries for 109 yards and a touchdown. Christine Michael had nine carries for 75
yards, including a 34-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. Ben Malena had seven carries for 63
yards, including a 7-yard touchdown run.
Tre Mason ran for 80 yards with a touchdown for Auburn.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 3 • DAVIS WADE STADIUM • STARKVILLE, MISS.
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10 • BRYANT-DENNY STADIUM • TUSCALOOSA, ALA.
ATTENDANCE: 101,821 • TV: CBS
STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) -- Johnny Manziel threw for 311 yards and ran for 129 yards and two
touchdowns, leading No. 16 Texas A&M to a 38-13 victory over No. 17 Mississippi State.
Manziel, a redshirt freshman, completed 30 of 36 passes. He ran for a 37-yard touchdown in the
second quarter that helped the Aggies build a 31-0 lead by early in the second half.
The Southeastern Conference's leading rusher added an 8-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter.
Texas A&M has won all five of its road games this season. Christine Michael ran for 50 yards and two
touchdowns. Ryan Swope caught nine passes for 121 yards, and Mike Evans caught nine for 97 yards.
The Aggies' quick-tempo offense ran 97 plays and gained 693 total yards. Mississippi State had just 310
total yards.
Tyler Russell completed 19 of 30 passes for 212 yards, with one touchdown and one interception for
Mississippi State, which has lost two in a row.
Mississippi State's defense had been one of the best in the SEC this season -- especially in the secondary -- but was blitzed early and often by the Aggies' unpredictable offense.
Manziel completed mostly short passes in the first half, but hit on a few long ones. When the Bulldogs
dropped too far back into pass coverage, the speedy freshman gained yards with his feet -- like his long
scamper that pushed the Aggies' lead to 21-0 in the second quarter.
By halftime, Manziel had completed 18 of 22 passes for 164 yards, and the Aggies had a 24-0 lead.
If there was any doubt about the outcome, Texas A&M cleared that up with the first drive of the third
quarter, cruising 75 yards on nine plays and scoring on a 1-yard run by Michael to push the lead to 31-0.
Now a little more than halfway through his first season at Texas A&M, coach Kevin Sumlin's offense
is operating with impressive efficiency. Over the past six weeks, the Aggies have scored 58 points on
Arkansas, 59 on Louisiana Tech, 63 on Auburn and now 38 on the Bulldogs.
The Aggies' fast-paced offense had Mississippi State's defense on its heels all afternoon. They were
very balanced, gaining 361 yards on the ground and 332 through the air.
It was a crushing loss for the Bulldogs, who started the season 7-0 and had aspirations of competing
for the SEC Western Division title.
But the Bulldogs have absorbed lopsided losses to Alabama and Texas A&M in consecutive weeks, and
it doesn't get any easier with a road game against LSU next weekend.
Russell threw for just 29 yards in the first half. By the time he had some success it was too late. Russell
threw a 14-yard pass to Chad Bumphis in the third quarter and added a 4-yard touchdown run in the
fourth quarter.
LaDarius Perkins led the Bulldogs with 42 yards rushing, and Arceto Clark caught five passes for 64
yards
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) -- Johnny Manziel staked the 15th-ranked Aggies to a three-touchdown
lead in the first quarter, and Texas A&M held on to beat the Crimson Tide 29-24.
AJ McCarron nearly pulled off a second straight scintillating comeback. He threw one touchdown
pass and motored the ball downfield before Deshazor Everett stepped in front of his fourth-down pass
at the goal line with 1:36 left.
Manziel passed for 253 yards and rushed for 92, confounding the Tide defense with his ability to
keep plays alive as the Aggies scored the game's first 20 points.
Alabama kept coming back, but never caught up with the slippery, speedy Manziel and the Aggies.
The nation's top scoring defense forced a punt with less than a minute left, but A&M never had to
kick it away. The Tide were penalized for offisides, giving Texas A&M a first down and a chance to kneel
out the clock.
McCarron breathed life into Alabama with a 54-yard touchdown pass down the left sideline to
freshman Amari Cooper to make it 29-24 with 4:29 left.
A quick three-and-out by the Aggies put the ball in McCarron's hands again. He opened at the 40
with a 54-yarder to speedster Kenny Bell down to the 6. Two scrambles and anEddie Lacy run left one
final shot from the 2 against a Texas A&M defense often overshadowed by its potent offense.
He had some time on third down, rolling left but finding Lacy well covered and having to try running
it, a la Manziel, before Dustin Harrisstopped him at the 2.
McCarron had rescued the Tide's national title hopes with a 28-yard screen pass in the final minute
for a 21-17 win over LSU. The Aggies, nearly two-touchdown underdogs, didn't let him do it again.
Everett made the play on a pass toward the front corner of the end zone.
McCarron completed 21-of-34 passes for 309 yard but also was intercepted twice, ending his streak
without getting picked off at 291 passes.
Lacy had 16 carries for 92 yards for Alabama and added 35 yards on four catches. Cooper had six
catches for 136 yards a week after missing much the second half of the LSU game with an ankle injury,
and failing to make a reception.
Manziel completed 24-of-31 passes with two touchdowns and ran 18 times, including four sacks.
He kept finding Swope. They hooked up 11 times for 111 yards and a 10-yard touchdown where
Manziel bobbled the ball as defenders swarmed him, reversed field and spotted Swope alone in the back
of the end zone.
The Aggies' first-quarter touchdown drives, giving them a 20-0 lead, stunned the Bryant-Denny
Stadium crowd of 101,821. Christine Michael had a pair of 1-yard touchdown runs in the quarter, along
with Swope's TD catch.
Then Alabama flexed its own muscle to counter Manziel's speed, sticking with power runs to set up
2-yard touchdown runs by T.J. Yeldon and Lacy.
McCarron also converted a fourth-and-4 with a pass to Lacy to set up the first score. Alabama
marched back down the field after Mosley pushed Manziel out of bounds a yard shy on fourth-and-6.
The Tide ran out all but 19 seconds with a methodical drive right back into the game.
Jeremy Shelley kicked a 28-yard field goal with 4:49 in the third quarter to cut it to 20-17 and Taylor
Bertolet answered with a short one to start the fourth.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP)-- Johnny Football needed a little more than a half to pile up five touchdowns
in a record-setting day.
Johnny Manziel threw for 267 yards and three touchdowns, and ran for 100 yards and two more scores as
Texas A&M (No. 8 BCS, No. 9 AP) beat Sam Houston State 47-28 Saturday.
The win was the ninth of the year for the Aggies and gives first-year A&M coach Kevin Sumlin the winningest
debut season in school history. Sumlin had been tied with R.C. Slocum (8-4 in 1989) and D.X. Bible (8-0 in 1917).
The redshirt freshman with the cool nickname threw an 89-yard touchdown pass to Uzoma Nwachukwu on
A&M's first offensive play of the second half. The dual-threat quarterback then attempted the extra point, but it
sailed wide right, ending the Heisman hopeful's day with A&M (9-2) leading 40-0.
He broke the NCAA freshman quarterback rushing record of 1,029 set by Missouri's Brad Smith in 2002, and
the freshman record for total offense of 3,827 set in 2000 by Jared Lorenzen on A&M's first drive. He also became
the fifth player and first freshman in FBS history to pass for at least 3,000 yards with at least 1,000 yards rushing
in a season.
His 4,161 yards are a school record for total offense in a season.
A week after their stunning upset of top-ranked Alabama, the Aggies (9-2) led by seven after one, and used a
27-point second quarter to build a big lead over last year's FCS runner-up.
Sam Houston State (8-3), which has already clinched a share of the Southland Conference title this year, saw
a seven-game winning streak snapped with the loss. It's their last regular-season game before they return to the
playoffs next week.
Manziel got Texas A&M going when he found Mike Evans on a 7-yard pass on the first drive to make it 7-0.
The Aggies had to punt on their next two possessions before the offense started rolling again. Manziel
hooked up with Evans again, this time on a 10-yard strike, to push the lead to 14-0 early in the second quarter.
Manziel had a 22-yard run and the Aggies got 13 extra yards at the end of it after a personal foul penalty on
Darnell Taylor earlier in that drive.
Running back Christine Michael was ejected at the end of the play where Evans scored his second touchdown. Michael, a senior, and some Sam Houston players were pushing each other before Michael threw a punch.
Daxton Swanson intercepted Manziel later in the second quarter. It was Manziel's first interception since Oct.
20 against LSU, and gave Swanson a school-record-tying 13 for his career.
The Bearkats couldn't take advantage of the miscue, and Bell was intercepted by A&M's Donnie Baggs three
plays later.
Manziel used his feet on the next score, dashing in from 4 yards out. Taylor Bertolet missed the extra point
to leave the score at 20-0.
Nwachukwu had a 40-yard catch to start Texas A&M's next drive, and Trey Williams extended the lead to
27-0 with a 6-yard touchdown run.
Linebacker Sean Porter forced a fumble and recovered it on Sam Houston State's first play after Williams'
touchdown. Nwachukwu, who finished with 160 yards receiving, had a 19-yard catch and run before Manziel
hopped into the end zone untouched on a 1-yard run to make it 34-0 at halftime.
Backup Jameill Showers connected with LeKendrick Williams for an 80-yard touchdown pass on his first play
after Manziel left the game to extend the lead to 47-0 early in the third.
Timothy Flanders had a 2-yard touchdown run for Sam Houston State in the third quarter, and the Bearkats
added three scores against A&M's backups in the fourth quarter.
COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) -- Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin watched Johnny Manziel turn in another strong
performance, and then went to work campaigning for his redshirt freshman quarterback to win the Heisman Trophy.
Manziel threw for 372 yards and three touchdowns and ran for two more scores as No. 9 Texas A&M handled Missouri
59-29.
No freshman has ever won the award given to college football's top player.
''I think the voters are going to recognize (the numbers),'' Sumlin said of Manziel, who has 4,600 yards of total offense. ''It
doesn't matter what year you are when you're talking about those numbers and the league we are (in), I think tells you all
you need to know.''
The Aggies (10-2, 6-2 SEC) scored touchdowns on their first six drives to build a 42-7 halftime lead and coast to their first
10-win season since 1998.
About the only drama in this one came when Manziel was shaken up on a tackle at the end of a run in the first quarter.
Johnny Football missed just four plays before returning with a brace on his left knee. And it didn't seem to slow him down
one bit.
The Aggies were up 21-0 when he returned, and he threw touchdown passes on three straight possessions to end the first
half.
He scored on an 18-yard run to start the third quarter, and added another rushing touchdown when he bulled in from
1-yard out early in the fourth.
Manziel added 67 yards rushing and completed 32 of 44 passes on Saturday. He has thrown for 24 touchdowns and ran for
19 this season.
The win snaps A&M's three-game losing streak to Missouri (5-7, 2-6 SEC), and will keep the Tigers from becoming bowl
eligible for the first time since 2004.
''We don't act like this is just real unusual that they scored some points,'' Missouri coach Gary Pinkel said. ''It's not. We're
talking about a great quarterback. I'm certainly disappointed we didn't play better (but) the things he did to us, he did to a
lot of people.''
Backup quarterback Corbin Berkstresser started for Missouri with James Franklin out after having a concussion last week.
He threw for 276 yards with two touchdowns and an interception.
Missouri's Kendial Lawrence had 16 carries for 87 yards and a touchdown to surpass 1,000 yards rushing this season.
''The last three years I've been here we always went to a bowl game,'' Lawrence said. ''So this is tough to end this way.''
After Manziel's touchdown run in the third, Taylor Bertolet hit a 50-yard field goal.
L'Damian Washington got in front of the defense on a 74-yard catch and run near the end of the third quarter to cut A&M's
lead to 52-16. Berkstresser tossed another touchdown with about seven minutes left.
Manziel was intercepted by E.J. Gaines late in the third quarter, and the Tigers capitalized on that turnover with a 1-yard
run by Berkstresser early in the fourth.
Manziel's last touchdown run came with about 12 minutes left to extend Texas A&M's lead to 59-23. He returned for one
play of the next drive before being going to the bench to a round of applause as he flashed the Aggies' 'Gig 'Em' sign.
The Aggies are hoping that Saturday's performance will give Manziel a final push before Heisman voting closes.
He capped his first drive back from an early injury with a 4-yard touchdown pass to Ryan Swope to make it 28-0.
Texas A&M got the ball back after a fumble. Manziel was under heavy pressure on the ensuing drive, and escaped two
diving defenders to throw a 5 yard touchdown pass to Mike Evans on the run.
His next touchdown pass was much the same as he wriggled out a defender diving at his leg and juked another defender
before running to the opposite side of the field and finding Uzoma Nwachukwu to make it 42-0.
The Tigers used a fake punt to extend a drive and Lawrence scored on a 4-yard run just before halftime to leave A&M up
42-7.
