The stands were packed on homecoming night, and through one quarter of play the game was a competitive six all thanks to a 6-yard Luke Harlan run.

That all changed with 11:15 to go in the second. By the end of the night A&M’s Raiders won 56-14.

In the second Raiders quarterback Jameson Smith took the rock 60 yards to pay dirt. Four minutes later he found running back Riley Black for an 85 yard touchdown on a swing screen on third down and 10, followed by a trick play for the two-point conversion, and the score was 22-6.

“We just didn’t do well offensively moving the ball” Redskins head coach Gerald Temples explained. “Defensively, we gave up big plays which we’ve done all year.”

It didn’t get much better as the night wore on.     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
