Texas A&M vs Arkansas takeaways: Aggies standing alone in SEC

There is only one remaining undefeated team in the SEC, and that's the Texas A&M Aggies. On a week where unbeaten after unbeaten was falling by the wayside, the Aggies remained steadfast despite walking into a lab-crafted definition of a perfect trap game.

Taylen Green played perhaps the best game of his entire career. The Razorbacks never turned the football over. The crowd was loud and raucous despite a long weather delay making things feel all out of sorts.

And yet the Aggies did what they needed to do in order to win. And now, as a result, they are the only remaining undefeated SEC team, standing alone atop the conference.

The Crimson Tide are still undefeated in the SEC, but their opening loss to Florida State (which hasn't really aged well at all) is still looming large. The Aggies alone have an unblemished record— though they'll be putting that on the line in a big way with this weekend's trip to Baton Rouge— and they are about to move up into the top three teams in the rankings.
