COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS (September 27, 2008) After a 1st quarter that saw neither team reach the end zone, The Black Knights of Army is showing they intend to avenge their loss to the Texas A&M Aggies from 2 years ago. Virtually leading in every statistic, they were ahead of the Aggies in first downs (3-0), net rushing yards (51-4) total offensive plays (16-9) and total offensive yards (55-20). The Aggies held the edge in net passing yards (24-4).

Neither team can seem to find the offense drive to advance the ball pass the midfield, as the defense shuts down each offensive set of plays before they can get started. The Aggies failed to get any third down conversions, while the Black Knights were able to find success twice on five third-down conversions.
