Ryan Tannehill is now 3-0 as starter, but this one was all about Cyrus Gray, who scored three of his four touchdowns in the second half.

The Texas A&M Aggies defense also saved its best football for the second half, combining to beat Baylor 42-30, aided by scoring the game's final 28 points.

The defense gave up 30 first-half points and trailed 30-14 at one point in the first half. Without forcing a turnover, Texas A&M pitched a shutout over the game's final 36 minutes, including a blocked field goal that was nearly returned for a touchdown at the end of the half.

Texas A&M moves to 7-3 and 4-2 in the Big 12, but still need Oklahoma State to lose to Kansas and Oklahoma to win the South. Don't count on either of those things happening, but Texas A&M has rescued its season after a 3-3 start that hit rock bottom with a 30-9 home loss to Missouri.
