Texas A&M on Upset Alert at Halftime vs. Arkansas

The Texas A&M Aggies look to continue their string of dominance and move to 7-0 on the season, but they have one of their rivals, the Arkansas Razorbacks standing in front them, hoping to detour them off one of the program’s best starts of the decade.
The rivalry matchup doesn’t come without a twist though, as this is the first time the two will match up on campus since 2014. Unfortunately for the Aggies, they have to hit the road first, but it shouldn’t scare them, after already having traveled to South Bend this season to defeat the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
For the Aggies though, it didn’t matter where the game was played, displaying an effecient first half performance off the back of their offense, and a defense that would bend, but not break on the road.
There were a lot of questions about how the Aggies would respond on the week after losing Le’Veon Moss for a significant amount of time with an undisclosed injury, but Rueben Owens proved he was up for the role as the starting running back. Averaging over four yards a carry on five rushing attempts for 23-yards, the Aggies offense picked up where they left off.
Quarterback Marcel Reed would go 5-6 through the air for 67-yards, and would deliver a 24-yard strike to Ashton Bethel-Roman for the first touchdown of the game. That was in response after the Razorbacks drove the field and had to settle for a field goal for the first points of the game.
The Aggies continued their string of success on offense, this time with Reed scoring himself on a rushing touchdown. They would get something new thrown at them on defense though, after Taylen Green would exit the game with an injury from being tackled awkwardly. The Razorbacks would settle for another field goal.
The Aggies would continue their methodical drive down the field, for a 14-play, 75-yard drive that took 7:45 on the clock and resulted in a Nate Boerkircher touchdown reception from Reed to put the Aggies up 21-6. The defense though, would have their struggles, especially contianing Green, who would break through on a 27-yard scamble for a touchdown to cut the Aggies lead to 21-13
The Razorbacks would hold the Aggies to a three-and-out, after great pressure from their defense, and would be forced to punt it away with under a minute left. The Aggies would continue struggling against the run in the contest, allowing over 200-yards in the first half on the ground, including to Mike Washington.
The defense would allow a touchdown on a reception to O’Mega Blake as time was expiring in the first half, and the Aggies would carry a 21-20 victory into halftime, where they would search for answers on defense.

Texas Powerball player who split $1.78B jackpot revealed — after selecting one number by mistake

The Texas Powerball ticketholder who split the $1.78 billion jackpot in September revealed they selected the numbers by accident — but are “blessed” to share the life-changing money with their community.
Seven Bridges Revocable Trust, a group out of Fredericksburg, Texas, stepped forward Monday to claim its half of the second-largest grand prize in Powerball and US lottery history.
The group chose to receive their winnings in a one-time lump sum of $410.3 million.
Numbers were selected by the group, who usually pick at random but decided to make it personal, choosing digits that “were meaningful to them,” the Texas Lottery said on Monday.
The group purchased the ticket at Big’s 103 gas station in Fredericksburg, a rural city, 75 miles west of Austin, but later realized one of the numbers they picked was different from what they had planned to select.
The winning numbers were: 11, 23, 44, 61, 62 and the Powerball was 17.
Members of the group didn’t find out about their lucky accident until they were on their way to church the next morning, causing them to pull over to confirm their transformative win.
The ticketholder stashed the life-changing ticket in their glovebox and went inside the church, according to the lottery.
“We are Texas true to the state and its values. We believe in family, in faith, and in the blessings that come through both. This is a moment of gratitude for us, a blessing we plan to enjoy and share with those who are special to us and who serve our community,” the group told the state lottery through a lawyer.
“We ask for privacy as we look forward to enjoying our lives together as a family. God bless Texas,” the statement added.
The group did not say which number they planned to select.
The gas station received a $250,000 bonus from the lottery for selling the jackpot-winning numbers.
It was the third time a Powerball jackpot was sold in Texas, and first since a $564.1 million grand prize was won in Austin back in 2015.
“We’re excited to celebrate this milestone with the claimant of the largest jackpot prize in Texas Lottery history,” Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation Executive Director Courtney Arbour said. “This record-setting prize shows that any Texas Lottery ticket could be the next big winner, all while helping to generate vital funding for public education and veterans’ services right here in Texas.”
Seven Bridges Revocable Trust will split the $1.78 billion prize with an anonymous winner in Missouri who also chose the lump sum option last month.
The Show-Me State ticketholder purchased their winning ticket at a QuikTrip convenience store in St. Louis, describing himself as a “homebody.”
“I’m like a homebody. The perfect day is sitting at home doing what I do — relaxing,” the winner told the state lottery after claiming his half of the prize. “I’m a millionaire, a multimillionaire, and I’m doing laundry last night.
“It’s the best problem I’ve ever had,” he said.
No one has claimed the Powerball grand prize since Sept. 6 and the jackpot sits at $295 million for Saturday night’s drawing.
