Texas A&M 63, Auburn 21: Defense in Review

Dominant defense sets tone early in easy win

What went right: The Ags opened the game with three sacks on Auburn’s first three possessions and knocked starting quarterback Clint Moseley out on the third play. A&M forced punts on six of AU’s first seven possessions, including five three-and-outs during that stretch. By the time the Tigers scored their second touchdown, the defense had been strong long enough for the Aggie offense to build a 49-7 lead.
