Texas A&M football bounced back with a dominant 34-7 win over the Arkansas Razorbacks on Saturday night, but the Aggies still need significant improvement to regain a spot in the AP Poll Top 25.
After back-to-back disappointing performances from Mike Elko's squad, they rebounded nicely against the Hogs, producing over 400 total yards of offense and holding Arkansas to just 214 total yards, which is the second-best mark under Texas A&M's third-year head coach. The 27-point win over the Razorbacks stands as the largest margin of victory in the series since 2012, when the Aggies won 58-10.
Plenty of improvements must be made moving forward, however. Texas A&M has a long way to go offensively, especially at quarterback, before they can sniff the top-25.
