24 Dec
Summary
- Texas A&M lost its first College Football Playoff game 10-3.
- Quarterback Marcel Reed committed three turnovers in the loss.
- Coach Mike Elko led the Aggies to their first CFP appearance.
Texas A&M's 2025 football season has concluded following a first-round College Football Playoff exit. The Aggies suffered a 10-3 defeat against Miami, a game where starting quarterback Marcel Reed faced significant scrutiny due to three turnovers, including two interceptions. This loss also marked the first time since 2002 that Texas A&M failed to score a touchdown at Kyle Field.
Despite the disappointing end to their playoff run, the season was historically significant for second-year head coach Mike Elko. He successfully led the Texas A&M program to its first College Football Playoff appearance. The team now looks ahead to the offseason to address the challenges that emerged late in the year and prepare for the future.
In related news, former Aggies quarterback Haynes King, who once vied for the starting role, has excelled at Georgia Tech. King was a finalist for the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award, transforming into a dual-threat player who amassed significant yardage and touchdowns, indicating a successful collegiate career after leaving Texas A&M.
