COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS (September 27, 2008) The second quarter of the Texas A&M-Army game saw the Aggies explode for two touchdowns and the Black Knights found the end zone on a 9-yard run by Tony Dace.

The Aggies drew first blood in the second quarter on a 42-yard pass from quarterback Stephen McGee to wide receiver Jeff Fuller. The first and ten play from the Army 42-yard line occurred at 7:12 in the quarter. The conversion by Rickie Bean was good to make the score 7-0 in favor of the Aggies.

Army came right back on a 9-yard run by running back Tony Dace at 3:09 in the quarter, who, along with Adam DeMarco’s kick tied the score at 7 all.

In a fluke of all flukes, Army quarterback Chip Bowden rushed for 1-yard on a third and two play and promptly fumbled the ball at the Aggie 36-yard line. It was recovered by Aggie defensive lineman Paul Freeney; and surrounded by a bevy of maroon jerseys, ran 58-yard for the score. Rickie Bean again converted the kick to make the score 14-7 at the half.
