Well, the Aggies can boast just three points from their first-ever appearance in the College Football Playoff after the Texas A&M offense failed to put anything on the board in the team's slugfest of a loss to the Miami Hurricanes.
The No. 7 Texas A&M Aggies hosted the No. 11 Canes in College Station, but even homefield advantage wasn't enough to get the offense going, and everyone turned to offensive coordinator Collin Klein as the scapegoat.
In the biggest games of every season Collin Klein continues to cook up the worst games of all time. 17 total points in 2 games vs Texas and 3 in a playoff game. Good riddance. You will not be missed.

What might be most surprising is the fact that Texas A&M earned 326 total yards on offense, but continuously failed to actually find the end zone, which was highlighted by quarterback Marcell Reed's game-ending interception.
Collin Klein receives blunt of blame for Aggies' loss
Between lackluster play calling and failing to set up Reed for success, fans virtually tossed tomatoes at Klein (and that one fan threw eggs in the stands).
Looks like Collin Klein’s mind is in Manhattan, KS… can’t believe how bad the offense has been aside from the one big play to Craver

Reed threw two interceptions, which can't entirely be pinned on Klein and certainly didn't help the Aggies' offensive effort throughout the College Football Playoff matchup. Additionally, running backs Rueben Owens II and Le'Veon Moss combined for a minimal 36 yards on 14 combined carries.
No more Collin Klein. No more seeing this anemic ass run defense (we hope). No more chants. pic.twitter.com/vEiUVYx5L8

Klein, of course, is leaving College Station to take a job as the Kansas State Wildcats' new head coach. Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko allowed him to stay and coach the Aggie offense in the postseason, and it clearly didn't go to plan.
Letting Collin Klein stay for the playoffs was a huge mistake.

Even when the game was tied 0-0 and 3-3, obviously defensively minded, Texas A&M fans were ripping into Klein as their offense continued to sputter on drive after drive. Klein repeatedly called short-yard pass attempts or runs on third and long, setting the Aggies up for failure.
Really don’t like Collin Klein’s playcalling today

Just waiving the white flag on 3rd downs
I'm a lifelong A&M fan and I speak for all of us when I say we want Collin Klein out immediately. Get him on the next plane out at halftime!

The game was the first in CFP history to be scoreless at halftime, and the 10-3 final score was one of the lowest point totals since the Playoff format was implemented in 2014.
Simply put, Klein failed the Aggies, and now Texas A&M's season has come to an end as the Hurricanes move on to the quarterfinal round of the College Football Playoff.
