BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION, Texas - Defense and special teams carried fifth-ranked Texas A&M Saturday night to a 20-7 victory over LSU on a rainy evening at Kyle Field.
The LSU defense was exceptional as well in the rugged contest, allowing the Aggies to convert just 2-of-16 opportunities on third down – including 0-for-6 in the second half – while holding Texas A&M to only 105 yards passing.
The Aggies improved to 2-7 against LSU since Texas A&M joined the SEC prior to the 2012 season.
LSU (3-4, 3-4 SEC) will play host to top-ranked Alabama next Saturday at 7 p.
