Texas A&M Shuts Out Missouri State 50-0
Missouri State finished with 67 total yards and three lost fumbles. Those two numbers are the game.
The Aggies took no time getting started. Marcel Reed hit Isaiah Horton from 15 yards at 9:32 of the first quarter, and a safety with 26 seconds left made it 9-0 at the end of the quarter. A 28-yard field goal from David Olano and a 12-yard touchdown pass from Reed to Mario Craver with 29 seconds left in the half put Texas A&M up 19-0 at the break.
The second half was just the same. Terry Bussey scored from 10 yards and Jamarion Morrow from 2 to make it 33-0 entering the fourth quarter. Carsyn Baker ran 12 yards at 13:35, and then Brady Hart threw a 15-yard touchdown to Aaron Gregory 43 seconds later for 47-0. Asher Murray finished it with a 47-yard field goal at 4:04.
Texas A&M had 505 yards (269 passing, 236 rushing) on 47 carries, which is a lot of ball-hogging. Missouri State managed 30 passing yards and 37 rushing yards on 23 carries. The Aggies lost one fumble themselves (Horton's, in case you rostered him anyway), so the turnover count was 3 to 1.
Texas A&M is 1-0 and Missouri State is 0-1. Reed finished 21 of 30 for 233 yards and two touchdowns for 23.3 Promethium points, which is a nice day that did not even require him to play the fourth quarter. For the record, only one of the Aggies' six touchdowns came through the air from someone other than Reed, and that was Hart's 15-yarder to Gregory in the fourth.
