Texas A&M Football: 3 Takeaways from the Aggies’ win vs UNM
By Tim England
2. Christian Kirk isn’t done yet
Man…we are going to miss this guy. There is little doubt the Christian Kirk will enter the NFL Draft as he is predicted as a First Round pick. That being the case, Kirk made his final performance at Kyle Field a memorable one. Kirk caught four passes for 120 yards and one touchdown which was a 60-yard reception to open the game.
Most importantly, in the second quarter, Kirk took a punt return 90 yards to the house for his sixth career punt return touchdown. That’s a school record, and he’s not done just yet.
It was nice to see the leader of the Aggies’ receiving corps make some big plays on Saturday night. It’s been a relatively quiet season for Kirk, but his long touchdowns against New Mexico confirm that the junior receiver hasn’t lost a step.
This young man has not only been an absolute delight to watch but has been an incredible representation of Texas A&M throughout his career. Two more games left Kirk, go get em sir.
