What happened

ESPN RECAP

Mond, Small lead No. 22 Texas A&M to 26-23 win vs. Gamecocks

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Tight end Jace Sternberger knew plenty of people were waiting for No. 22 Texas A&M to fall apart after its surprisingly strong start. The Aggies showed Saturday they're not going away any time soon. Sternberger had seven catches for 145 yards, Kellen Mond threw for 353 yards and Seth Small had four field goals as Texas A&M held off South Carolina 26-23. Sternberger had heard too many comparisons with past Aggies teams who opened strong, then faded as the Southeastern Conference season wore on. "We put a lot of pressure on ourselves this week," he said. "We knew everybody was waiting to see how we were going to respond." The Aggies answered with a winning final quarter after squandering a 16-0 second-half lead. "We were going to get over that hump and we were able to show that today," he said.
