With all due respect to Iowa State's victory over Nebraska, the biggest shocker in the Big 12 today came tonight.
Texas A&M just lined up and whipped Texas Tech in the trenches in a stunning 52-30 victory.
The biggest reason? The maligned Texas A&M offensive line helped open holes for 322 rushing yards and 560 total yards.
The Aggies ran off 31 straight points midway through the game to take control, silencing the largest crowd in the history of Jones AT&T Stadium.
Will this save Mike Sherman's job?
It can't hurt. And it likely was one of the sweetest victories of Sherman's tenure after some of the comments made by Tech coach Mike Leach about A&M's development of quarterbacks.
For the record, A&M quarterback Jerrod Johnson passed for 238 yards and rushed for 70 more as he outplayed Tech's Taylor Potts before he was removed late in the game.
