Texas A&M Roars Back from 30-3 Deficit to Make SEC History
18 Nov
Summary
- Texas A&M overcomes 30-3 first-half deficit to win 31-30
- Largest comeback in school history and SEC game in 20 years
- Aggies now 10-0 and only undefeated team left in SEC
On November 12, 2022, the third-ranked Texas A&M Aggies found themselves in a shocking 30-3 hole against South Carolina at home. However, the team staged an incredible comeback in the second half, ultimately winning the game 31-30. This was the largest comeback in Texas A&M's history and the biggest in an SEC game in the past 20 years.
The Aggies' remarkable turnaround has left them as the only undefeated team left in the SEC. With just two games remaining in the regular season, they are in prime position to play for the program's first SEC championship. Head coach Mike Elko, who recently agreed to a six-year contract extension, has transformed the team into a national title contender in just his second season.
Meanwhile, in-state rival Texas has gone in the opposite direction, suffering a 35-10 loss to Georgia. The Longhorns' struggles have further highlighted the Aggies' rise to prominence in the state of Texas and the SEC.
