Texas A&M Dominates Mizzou, Remains Undefeated at 9-0

UPDATE: Texas A&M’s football team has achieved a significant milestone by defeating No. 22 Missouri 38-17 on November 4, 2025, in a critical SEC matchup. This victory not only improves their record to 9-0 but also marks their first SEC road win in November since 2020, ending a seven-game losing streak during this month.

In a game that showcased their dominance, the Aggies took control early and never looked back. Quarterback Marcel Reed threw for 221 yards and two touchdowns, reinforcing his candidacy for the Heisman Trophy. Running back Reuben Owens contributed significantly with 102 yards and two touchdowns, demonstrating the offensive strength of Texas A&M.

As the Aggies celebrated their victory amidst a dwindling crowd at Faurot Field, Owens interacted with Missouri fans, signaling the shift in momentum that has haunted the A&M program in past Novembers. “Go home!” he shouted to one fan, reflecting the confidence radiating from the team.

This blowout win over a ranked opponent underscores Texas A&M’s transformation under head coach Elko. The Aggies have now won three consecutive road games in league play this season and have embraced their role as serious contenders for the SEC and national titles. Elko remarked, “I know that’s four road games this team has gone on the road and won. We’re 4-0 this year on the road.”

The Aggies’ defense played a crucial role, limiting Missouri to just 284 yards and causing significant pressure on their freshman quarterback Matt Zollers, who struggled to adapt. “We shut them down,” linebacker Daymion Sanford said, highlighting the defensive strategy that led to seven tackles for loss and two sacks.

The significance of this victory extends beyond the scoreboard. With the college football playoff rankings released earlier this week, Texas A&M has positioned itself favorably in the eyes of the committee. The Aggies now control their destiny with only one ranked opponent left on their schedule—an upcoming rivalry game against Texas.

As the season progresses, the excitement among fans is palpable. With only one road game remaining and a strong home crowd anticipated for their next matchup against South Carolina, the Aggies are on track to secure their first trip to Atlanta for the SEC Championship.

For fans, the atmosphere in Columbia was electric, especially in the final moments as thousands of maroon-clad supporters cheered on their team. Following the game, players celebrated with fans, emphasizing the bond and belief that has developed within this squad throughout the season.

Texas A&M is now one of only three undefeated teams remaining among power conferences, along with Ohio State and Indiana. With their recent performances, the Aggies are poised for a historic finish to the 2025 season, and the football world is taking notice.

As the focus shifts to their next challenge, Elko emphasized the strength of the team’s culture and determination, stating, “The work they put into this thing is really strong, and they believe in each other.” With momentum on their side, the Aggies are ready to make a mark in the postseason.
