Texas A&M Stuns South Carolina With Record 27-Point Rally to Stay 10-0

The result preserves the Aggies’ playoff path, leaving the SEC title race unresolved until the final weekend.

Overview

  • Quarterback Marcel Reed rebounded from a rough start to finish with 439 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions, completing 16 of 20 for 298 yards and three scores after halftime.
  • The Aggies erased a 30-3 halftime deficit to win 31-30, the largest comeback in program history and the first SEC win since 2004 by a team down 27-plus points (now 1-286).
  • Texas A&M improved to 10-0 and remained tied atop the SEC, with the conference confirming no team can clinch a championship berth until the final weekend of games.
  • Texas A&M Police said a state trooper seen confronting South Carolina receiver Nyck Harbor in the tunnel was relieved of his game-day assignment pending a review.
  • Initial injury updates indicated Ashton Bethel-Roman said his ankle "should be fine," and coach Mike Elko described running back Rueben Owens’ issue as "not a massive thing" ahead of Samford and the Nov. 28 trip to Texas.
