Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin is doing everything in his power to make this year's season-opening win mean more than the last.
Sumlin and his No. 16 Aggies opened the schedule with a victory over a top-15 team for the second straight year, but they hope to make it count this time starting with Saturday night's home opener against Ball State.
Last year didn't go as planned after the Aggies opened by beating then-No. 9 South Carolina 52-28. Texas A&M rattled off four more wins against light competition but dropped five of its final eight, including three of four against ranked teams.
