Texas A&M looked at the beginning of the season like a team whose coach was on the hot seat. Kevin Sumlin arrived in College Station a hot commodity, but after coaching Johnny Manziel to a Heisman and leading the Aggies into the SEC with a bang, things had taken a turn south for Sumlin. With Texas A&M 3-0 on the season after their 13-point win over Auburn, Sumlin’s seat seems a little less hot. Oklahoma transfer Trevor Knight had 289 total yards in the air and on the ground, Trayveon Williams rushed for another 127 on just eight carries, and A&M prevailed in a game they trailed after one quarter.

Next on the schedule is a showdown with fellow Top 25 SEC West school Arkansas, who comes to Kyle Field next weekend in a matchup of former Southwest Conference rivals. The biggest game looming on the schedule beyond the Razorbacks is an October 22 date with Alabama in Tuscaloosa, in what could be an elimination game in the division standings.
