The Texas A&M Aggies' momentum came to a halt this past weekend when they were blown out by the South Carolina Gamecocks in Columbia. Of course, the loss was due to far more than just one player making mistakes.

Following a tough loss to South Carolina, Texas A&M head coach Mike Elko turns attention to the bye week and readying for the final stretch.

The Aggies come out of the bye week with home matchups against New Mexico State and No. 5 Texas sandwiching the final road trip of the season to Auburn. The expanded playoff has allowed for greater opportunity for teams to reach their postseason dreams, and Elko is confident A&M can be in the party if it finishes with a 10-2 mark.
