No. 23 Texas A&M’s 23-21 win over No. 10 Arkansas hung in the balance on Saturday night as Razorbacks kicker Cam Little’s 42-yard field goal attempt made its way toward the uprights with 1:30 remaining. Then, in a cruel twist of fate for the sophomore, the football ricocheted off the top of the right goal post, shot up into the air and then dropped into the end zone as a missed attempt.
From there, the Aggies ran out the clock for a victory in their SEC opener. It was one of two gut-wrenching plays that cost the Razorbacks dearly in an SEC West showdown that came down to the wire. While the Arkansas outgained Texas A&M in total yardage 415-343, it scored just once on its final eight possessions after taking an early 14-0 lead. Meanwhile, Texas A&M generated just enough offense with Devon Achane rushing for 159 yards on 19 carries to muster its second consecutive win since a shocking home loss to Appalachian State in Week 2.
