The Florida Gators defeated the Texas A&M Aggies on Saturday. The Gators won 41-24 over the Aggies at Kyle Field in College Station, Texas.
The Aggies had their two-game win streak over the Gators snapped with this loss. With the defeat, Texas A&M has more problems going on with the program.
They have now dropped five straight games. And head coach Jimbo Fisher’s tenure may be coming to an end soon.
Fisher and the Aggies had high expectations this season. They were considered to be one of the favorites to win the College Football Playoff National Championship.
The Aggies had the top-ranked recruiting class in the country. But in the months since February, everything has fallen apart.
With the win, the Gators improved to 5-4 overall. Their two-game losing streak on the season has been snapped with this confidence-building win.
Florida is now just one game away from being Bowl eligible in Billy Napier’s first season in Gainesville, Florida. Their next three opponents are the South Carolina Gamecocks, Vanderbilt Commodores, and the Florida State Seminoles during Thanksgiving weekend.
Texas A&M fell to 3-6 overall. The best they could do is be .500. But that even seems unlikely.
Their losing streak could end next Saturday against the Auburn Tigers. Both the Tigers and the Aggies will come into the game with a 3-6 record.
Also, both teams are on five-game losing streaks. The Tigers will be in their second game under interim head coach Cadillac Williams following the departure of Bryan Harsin.
The Aggies will then close out their season with games against the UMASS Minutemen and the LSU Tigers.
The all-time series with the Aggies and the Gators are now tied 3-3. This is the Gators’ first win in the series since Texas A&M moved to the Southeastern Conference.
The Gators’ prior win in the series before Saturday came on September 8th, 2012, in a 20-17 win in College Station. Florida also has a 42-6 win over the Aggies in 1962.
