What Happened The Last Time Miami Visited Kyle Field?
As the dust has settled on the College Football Playoff race, Texas A&M football has remained firm in the conversation as one of the best teams in America. That sentiment held true for the Aggies early Sunday morning, as head coach Mike Elko’s crew is set to host the Miami Hurricanes.
While separated by about a day’s drive down Interstate 10, the Maroon and White and the Hurricanes are quite familiar with each other in recent years. It was just two seasons ago that now-Houston quarterback Conner Weigman and Co. travelled to Hard Rock Stadium and were defeated 48-33.
Just a year before that, however, Kyle Field was rocking for the Hurricanes’ first game in College Station since 2008, and the hype of the matchup was rewarded with an impressive defensive effort out of the home squad. With that said, let’s flashback to 2022 when the Aggies seized a decisive victory, 17-9.
A&M Weathers the Hurricane
In 2022, then-No. 13 Miami travelled to face No. 24 A&M in a night game that drew one of the highest attendances in Kyle Field history, with 107,245 Aggie fans yelling and rocking the stadium from kickoff until the clock hit triple zeros.
The A&M defense stood tall that night, as Miami fumbled the ball, turned the ball over on downs, and missed two critical field goals. Despite amassing a whopping 27 first downs, the expertise of former defensive coordinator DJ Durkin’s unit kept the Aggies’ boat sailing straight over the Miami hurricane.
Looking for a spark on offense, head coach Jimbo Fisher turned to LSU transfer quarterback Max Johnson to bring a change necessary for a big-time win. Johnson completed just 10 passes to only four different receivers, but that was all the Aggies needed to upset their ACC foes.
The lone receiving touchdown was hauled in by none other than running back De’Von Achane, who, ironically enough, plays professionally with the Dolphins in Miami. Already up 10-3, the Aggies were searching to deliver the final knockout punch to take down the Hurricanes, and Achane did just that.
On second down, Achane took a screen pass through the Hurricane defenders, eluding arm tackle after arm tackle as the future Pro Bowl rusher found his way into the end zone for what was A&M’s last score of the game.
While every game matters in its own right, no bigger game has ever been played at Kyle Field than the one that is coming on Dec. 20. Miami knows it, too, and will be willing to put all its chips down to advance to the next round of the CFP.
Luckily for A&M, it’ll have the 100,000+ home-field advantage.

“Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” star Tommie Lee among 6 arrested during World Cup match in Miami, sheriff says
Reality television personality Tommie Lee — whose real name is Atasha Jefferson — best known for her appearances on “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta,” was among six people arrested during the England vs. Norway FIFA World Cup match in Miami on Saturday, according to the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office.
The sheriff’s office said 60,024 fans attended the match. Deputies also reported 19 ejections from the stadium, adding that all incidents were isolated and handled quickly.
Authorities have not yet released the circumstances surrounding Jefferson’s arrest or any charges she may face.
A social media account that regularly reports celebrity news claimed Sunday that Jefferson was arrested July 11 and released July 12 after posting a $1,000 bond. The post also alleged she is facing a felony charge of interference with a sporting or entertainment event and said she later shared a video on Snapchat appearing to be in good spirits after her release.
What we don’t know
CBS News has not independently verified those claims, including the reported charge, bond amount or release information, and Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office has not publicly confirmed those details.
CBS News has also not independently verified what led to the encounter, and the sheriff’s office has not said what prompted deputies to take Jefferson into custody.
CBS News has requested Jefferson’s arrest report, booking information and any charging documents from the Miami-Dade Sheriff’s Office. A request for comment has also been sent to Jefferson’s representatives.
Reality TV star’s legal troubles in South Florida amid World Cup festivities
Jefferson rose to national prominence as one of the breakout personalities on “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta” before later appearing on several Zeus Network reality series, where she has remained a frequent cast member.
This is not Jefferson’s first legal issue in South Florida. In 2024, she was arrested in Miami Beach on a battery charge following an incident outside LIV Nightclub. Court records from that case alleged she physically confronted another person before officers took her into custody.
Saturday’s arrest comes as Miami continues hosting FIFA World Cup matches that have drawn tens of thousands of fans from around the world. Despite the arrests and ejections, the sheriff’s office said the event proceeded safely and described the incidents as isolated.
This is a developing story. CBS News will update this article as additional information, including the exact circumstances surrounding Jefferson’s arrest and any charges, becomes available.
