Gm 4: TEXAS A&M VS. ARKANSAS
6 p.m. | Sept. 26, 2015
AT&T STADIUM, Arlington, Texas
Texas A&M 28, Arkansas 21 (OT)

TEAM/GAME NOTES
• The 2015 Aggies trailed for first time this season after Arkansas scored a 1st quarter touchdown.
• The 2015 Southwest Classic marked the first time this season that A&M did not score first in a game.
• Aggies enter game with three-game winning streak over the Razorbacks, the longest winning streak for the maroon and white in the rivalry since early 1940s.
• Texas A&M moved to 4-0 vs. Arkansas since joining the SEC.
• The Aggies moved to 9-6 in overtime games, winning their second straight (both over Arkansas in the Southwest Classic). The Aggies and Razorbacks went to overtime a season ago at AT&T Stadium, A&M won 35-28 in 2014.

OFFENSIVE NOTES
• True freshman WR Christian Kirk rolled to his third 100-yard receiving game in just his fourth career game. He already matched the Texas A&M freshman record for season 100-yard games set originally by Uzoma Nwachukwu in 2009 and matched by Mike Evans in 2012. Kirk went over the 100-yard plateau early in the second quarter with 130 yards on his first three catches of the game.
• Kirk’s 173 receiving yards brings his season total to 442 receiving yards, moving him into 9th on the A&M freshman receiving list.
• Sophomore Kyle Allen set a new career-high with 358 passing yards, lapping his previous high of 294 yards set in the 2014 Liberty Bowl against West Virginia.
• Junior Josh Reynolds joined Kirk in triple digit receiving against the Hogs, the 106 yards pushes him past 1,000 career yards (1,084 yards).

DEFENSIVE NOTES
• Sophomore DT Zaycoven Henderson made 1st sack his career in the second quarter. It was also the first sack allowed by Arkansas in 2015.
• Sophomore nickelback Donovan Wilson grabbed his second interception of 2015 (returned seven yards), which is also the second of his career with a pickoff of ARK QB Brandon Allen in the second quarter.
• Sophomore FS Armani Watts, the team leader in tackles entering the game, posted a game-high 14 tackles, which was a career high and his second double-digit game of 2015 and his career.
• Sophomore Shaan Washington (11) and Junior AJ Hilliard (10) joined Watts in doubles digit tackles on the night.

SPECIAL TEAM NOTES
• Senior P Drew Kaser had his first non-50-yard average game of 2015, but still averaged an impressive 48.8 yards on four boots.

MISCELLANEOUS
• Game captains were OC Mike Matthews, RT Germain Ifedi, DE Myles Garrett CB Brandon Williams. Arkansas won the toss and chose to receive the opening kickoff.
• Making his 30th consecutive 12th Man start was senior Sam Moeller (San Antonio, Texas). Moeller matches the school record for 12th Man starts originally set by Nick Lamantia from 2006-08.
