Dominant Performance at Kyle Field

Jamarion Morrow’s three rushing touchdowns anchored a comprehensive defensive and offensive display as the Texas A&M Aggies shut out The Citadel Bulldogs 41-0 on Saturday, October 17, 2026. Playing before a crowd of 101,052 at Kyle Field in College Station, Texas, the home team controlled the tempo from the opening drive, never allowing The Citadel to cross the goal line or generate significant offensive momentum.

Morrow and Reed Steer the Offense

Texas A&M quarterback Marcel Reed managed the game with precision, completing 8 of 13 passes for 130 yards and one touchdown. His connection with wide receiver Aaron Gregory proved pivotal, as Gregory hauled in six receptions for 94 yards and two scores. The ground attack was equally effective, led by KJ Edwards who carried the ball 13 times for 116 yards.

Morrow provided the heavy lifting on the ground, converting short-yardage situations into points. His first score came in the opening period on a 4-yard run, followed by two more 1-yard touchdown runs in the second quarter. David Olano successfully kicked all four extra points and added two field goals in the third quarter to secure the scoring margin.

Quarter-by-Quarter Breakdown

The Aggies established control early, taking a 7-0 lead after Morrow’s first touchdown run in the first period. Texas A&M expanded their advantage significantly in the second quarter, pouring on 21 points. After Morrow’s second score made it 14-0, Reed found Gregory for a 37-yard touchdown pass to push the lead to 21-0.

Morrow capped the half with his third rushing touchdown, making the score 28-0 at halftime.

The defense continued its stifling performance in the second half. Olano added a 23-yard field goal and a 20-yard field goal in the third period, extending the lead to 34-0. The Aggies’ final points came in the fourth quarter when Reed connected with Gregory again for a 12-yard touchdown pass, bringing the final tally to 41-0.

Statistical Summary and Records

The Citadel’s offense struggled to find any rhythm throughout the contest. Quarterback Nick Billoups completed just 2 of 5 passes for 38 yards. Running back Gavin Garcia carried the ball 16 times for 46 yards, while Isaiah Johnson recorded the team’s only reception for 32 yards.

The victory improved Texas A&M’s record to 4-3 on the season. The Citadel fell to 2-5 with the loss. The shutout performance highlighted a complete team effort, combining efficient passing, productive rushing, and an impenetrable defense that held the Bulldogs scoreless for all four quarters.
