By Tyler Alley Sports Editor

Baylor walked off Kyle Field af- ter losing 55-28 amid chants of “S- E-C!” from the Texas A&M fans. Baylor’s defense gave the A&M fans reasons to cheer throughout the game, allowing 681 total yards to the Aggie offense. Texas A&M senior quarterback Ryan Tannehill had 415 passing yards and six touchdowns. Poor tackling and secondary play led to some big plays for Texas A&M and to junior receiver Ryan Swope having a career day with 206 yard receiving and four touchdowns. “We weren’t reading our keys, and that’s when they attacked us,” sophomore safety K.J. Morton said. “Ryan Swope is a tremendous ath- lete; he’s a good route runner. Our defense will take it one day at a time and get better as a unit. These are things that can get fixed and will get fixed.” Junior quarterback Robert Griffin III put up big numbers with 430 passing yards and three touch- downs and one interception, his second of the season. Head coach Art Briles said the numbers mean nothing to Griffin. “He kept us alive but the only number he’s concerned with is where that bar goes on the col- Matt Hellman | Lariat Photo Editor umn,” Briles said. “That’s all he’s concerned with and all we’re con- No. 18 receiver Jordan Najvar leaps up in an attempt to catch a Robert Griffin III pass during the game against Texas A&M on Saturday at Kyle Field.
