Achane leads No. 23 Texas A&M past No. 10 Arkansas, 23-21

ARLINGTON, Texas -- , Demani Richardson got the ball just like he wanted, and the defensive back sprinted the final 82 yards down the sideline on a wild fumble return touchdown for No. 23 Texas A&M. “Big momentum play. That helped us a lot,” Aggies running back Devon Acane said. Richardson had the big return while Acane ran for 159 yards and a touchdown as Texas A&M scored 23 consecutive points after falling behind early, eventually beating the 10th-ranked Razorbacks 23-21 on Saturday night. KJ Jefferson lost the ball when inexplicably trying to leap over the blocking linemen on a first-down play from 3 when Arkansas had a chance for a 21-7 lead late in the first half. The Arkansas quarterback instead ended up going straight up and the ball was knocked out of his hands by linebacker Chris Russell. “We can’t do that on first down. If it was fourth down, that’s a different story.
