Baylor steals Aggies' magic, wins 35-34 in OT

Hahaha! Bye-bye top 25 ranking, Aggies! From the Houston Chronicle:

A week ago, after Texas A&M came from behind to beat Colorado in overtime, coach Dennis Franchione talked about how a team needed to win a game or two like that if it wanted to have a magical season.

The magic is gone for the No. 16-ranked Aggies, but for one night the Baylor Bears were able to jump and hug and go crazy. The Bears scored their biggest win since the start of the Big 12 Conference in 1996, beating the Aggies 35-34 in overtime Saturday before 41, 283 at Floyd Casey Stadium.

Shortly after quarterback Shawn Bell hit Dominique Zeigler with a two-point conversion for the win, the Baylor fans raced on to the field. Quickly, they took down the goalpost at the south end zone, while scores of Aggie fans sat glumly in their seats.

It mattered little that Baylor beat A&M for the first time since 1985. More important to the Aggies (6-2, 4-1 Big 12) is that their long-awaited game against unbeaten Oklahoma next week at Kyle Field now has less significance.

In case you didn't know, the Baylor Bears have been the whipping boy of the Big 12 South Division for close to a decade now; losing to them is quite an embarrassment to the Aggies. Also in case you didn't know, I'm a Longhorn man, and Longhorns love to laugh at Aggies. Just because they're funny. Ha!

They do have cool boots, though.
