Texas A&M was unable to find its footing in Kyle Field on Oct. 2. The Aggies lost to their second SEC opponent of the year. Despite a solid defensive performance, the offensive momentum was not there for the Aggies. Quarterback Zach Calzada continues to improve and scored the first rushing touchdown of his college career. The Aggies will return to Kyle Field to face off against the University of Alabama on Oct. 9 at 7 p.m.
