Texas A&M Football: 3 takeaways from tough loss to Georgia in Week 13
By Shelbie Warr
Texas A&M football fell to Georgia 19-13 as the Bulldogs keep up their push to the playoff. What did we learn in this one?
This game was extremely stressful to watch, but it was at least a little exciting down the stretch. However, Georgia pulled off the 19-13 win despite a furious comeback from the boys in Maroon and White.
Of course, there is quite a bit that I would like to say about the officiating, especially on some of the scoring plays or the plays around there for Georgia, but I won’t spend a lot of time on that.
I’ll start with another grievance I have — one that is proven true after this game.
3. Braden Mann deserves to be up for the Ray Guy Award
The Ray Guy Award — which goes to the best punter in college football — released their semi-finalist list this week. The biggest miss? A lack of Texas A&M’s Braden Mann on the list, a player that won the award a season ago and sits within the top three this year in terms of punting average.
Just enjoy a taste of how good he is in the video below.

Yes, I understand that he won it last year, but if you don’t invite him as a semi-finalist and eventually a finalist did you really invite all of the best punters? Are you really giving it to the best punter out there without one of the best even on the list?
This is a disparity that really just ticks me off and one that deserves some kind of explanation because it is for sure not OK.
