Texas A&M Football: A Journey Through Aggie Bowl History

Texas A&M football has had some memorable moments in their postseason history. These bowl games standout from the rest.

Texas A&M has a long history of bowl game appearances. With an overall record of 17-21 there have been more than a few losses. Kevin Sumlin won four consecutive bowl games to begin his coaching tenure in College Station before dropping the final two games.

The latest Aggie bowl game came in the Texas Bowl which featured two 8-4 teams, Texas A&M and Kansas State. Each team had key players on the defensive side of the ball. Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year, Jordan Willis was a big part of K-State having the best run defense in their conference. Impressive considering the high tempo offenses across the Big 12.

On the other side, Myles Garrett led the Maroon and White defense for what would be the last time. The he All American defensive end declared for the NFL draft after the bowl game. Texas A&M would lose that game, thus turning up the flame on Sumlin’s hot seat entering the 2017 season.

While the last taste was sour, there are plenty of other memorable moments in Aggie bowl history.
