Down Goes Bama
This past Saturday was a wild and exciting one in College Football. There was many big-time plays and a couple of conference battles throughout the day. The highlight of the day though, was #15 Texas A&M going to Tuscaloosa and beating the now "previously-undefeated" Alabama. Texas A&M jumped out to a 20-0 lead after the first quarter and looked to be an complete control. Alabama would come back to score a pair of second quarter touchdowns to cut the lead to six by half. After a third quarter field goal by Bama, the score was A&M leading 20-17. Texas A&M's fresjman sensation Johnny Manziel threw his second touchdown pass of the game midway through the fourth quarter to put his team up 29-17. Alabama would drive down and score to cut it to 29-24. Then came the craziness, Alabams's defense got a quick stop and A.J. McCarren led the offense down to A&M's six yard-line. After failing to score on 1st, 2nd, and 3rd & goal, Bama had a 4th & goal from the 3; McCarren rolled to his right and fired it in the end zone, only for it to be intercepted! It was over yet, as Bama's defense came up big again by forcing a 3 & out and an A&M punt. With 40 seconds left it was 4th and 1 yard to go and A&M was punting, but right before the snap an Alabama defensive lineman jumps of sides; resulting in a offside penalty that gave Texas A&M the game-sealing 1st down. Manziel would take one final knee and that would be it. Johnny Manziel played fantastic, as well did the Aggies' defense to lead the upset victory. So, who will be the new #1 team in College Football? Well, we will all find that out Sunday night, with the release of the new BCS standings.
