A&M 30 Ole Miss 27
Sunday, October 7, 2012
Wanna see pure joy??
That is exactly what it looked like in our living room, with four Aggies jumping around like nutballs. (Well, minus the gatorade.) The most thrilling ending to a football game I've seen in years!!
The Ags were very unexpectedly imploding last night during most of the game, with SIX interceptions, including two thrown by Johnny Football (gasp!). He came into that game with no interceptions all season.
"At one point, it looked like the precocious freshman had run out of magic," said the Fort-Worth Star-Telegram. "Turns out he was just getting warmed up."
In the last minutes, things started happening like crazy, and our guys came back from ten points down to win it all. Manziel 29-yard rush for one touchdown. Missed extra point. Manziel/Swope touchdown pass, and we were up 30-27.
An interception by Hurd in the final seconds, when the Rebels were at our 32 yard line, sealed the deal. YES. Whooooop!
One bright spot was that we stayed within ten points, despite a very messy game, where it seemed nothing was going our way. This is a team that for the past few seasons has been falling apart in the second half, even (especially) when we were up significantly at halftime. It is so refreshing to see them keep pushing and play the entire 60 minutes, even if they are having a bad an abysmal day. Amazing heart and talent!
Halftime entertainment note: Twitter reports say that Ole Miss fans booed the Aggie Band when they stepped onto the field. After their performance-- standing ovation.
