IT’S OVER! Marcel Reed is off the mark on a throw to the end zone and Miami freshman Bryce Fitzgerald steps in front of it to win the game with a pick.

Final: Miami 10, Texas A&M 3

The Aggies are moving the ball with ease on the ensuing possession with a mix of Marcel Reed passes and scrambles.

They’re nearing the red zone with less than a minute to go.

Well just when it looked like Miami would settle for a field goal, freshman receiver Malachi Toney takes a backfield pass out wide and scores the first touchdown of the game!

Miami 10, Texas A&M 3 | 1:44 left

Mark Fletcher has 170 yards on 16 carries. He has carried Miami in this one. The Canes are trying to milk the clock down now but Texas A&M is taking timeouts.

Fletcher has been one of the few bright spots for the Canes today and he just came through with a monster 56-yard run with time ticking down under the 4-minute mark.

The Aggies weren’t able to capitalize on the turnover and give it back to the Canes with just over 4 minutes left in the game.

It’s the first Miami turnover of the game and it comes at a crucial time. Malachi Toney caught a pass over the middle, but was stripped of the ball while fighting for extra yards.

A&M will have the ball back at midfield.

16 plays, 67 yards. All for a field goal.

We are all tied in College Station after Randy Bond makes a 35-yard field goal.

Miami 3, Texas A&M 3 | 8:03 left

The Aggies are finding ways to convert on third down and they’re now inside the 20 with just under 10 minutes left in the game.

The Aggies finally have some positive momentum early in the fourth quarter. They’re out past midfield with a fresh set of downs and Marcel Reed is finding a little bit of a rhythm.

The Canes got it out to midfield, but opted to punt it instead of going for it on fourth-and-short. Their defense has blanked A&M so far, so it’s probably the right call.

Miami might’ve gotten away with a late hit along the sideline, but no flag was thrown and the Canes will get it back.

There’s just over 3:30 left in the third quarter.

Carter Davis has missed ANOTHER kick. This one doinks off the left upright and it’ll remain 3-0.

Reed just simply did not read Miami’s zone defense well on that interception.

We have another turnover by A&M’s Marcel Reed! This time he badly missed his receiver and threw it right into the hands of Miami’s Bryce Fitzgerald, who returned the pick near the red zone.

There’s something to be said about scoring points in a 0-0 game in the third quarter, but A&M hasn’t shown that it can reliably go 98 yards if the Aggies’ defense stopped Miami. I would have gone for the touchdown.

We have points in College Station! The Hurricanes got all the way down to the 2-yard line and Mario Cristobal elected to kick the short field goal instead of going for it on fourth down and Carter Davis made it.

Miami 3, Texas A&M 0

The Canes are finally showing signs of life offensively after several mid-range passes by Carson Beck and a 24-yard run by Mark Fletcher Jr.

They’re inside the red zone now.
