Texas A&M vs. Auburn: Live Score, Highlights for Aggies vs. Tigers
Texas A&M 29, Auburn 16—Final
With two up-tempo, no-huddle offenses, this game figured to have plenty of yards and points. That wasn't the case, however, but the Texas A&M Aggies found enough offense in a 29-16 win over the Auburn Tigers. Quarterback Trevor Knight was efficient, throwing for 247 yards and one touchdown. He also added 42 rushing yards.
The Aggies led 16-10 at the half, and this game stayed within reach for Auburn until running back Trayveon Williams rattled off an 89-yard score with 6:52 left in the fourth quarter, making it 29-10. It was a balanced attack for Texas A&M, as it passed for 247 yards and rushed for 231 yards.
The game could have actually been worse if not for Auburn's red-zone defense. The Aggies were forced to kick five field goals, and Daniel LaCamera connected on all five attempts. Texas A&M should actually feel lucky to get an SEC road win after converting just two of its 15 third-down attempts.
The storyline of the game was the Auburn offense, though. Sean White got the start at quarterback, but after four straight punts to start the second half, head coach Gus Malzahn elected to go with John Franklin III. The Tigers were able to find a little bit of offense on the ground with Franklin in the game, but Malzahn's group passed for only 163 yards in this game.
Auburn must find some answers offensively, because it will take on the LSU Tigers next Saturday at home. Texas A&M will travel back home to take on the Arkansas Razorbacks.
