BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION, Texas – Devon Achane's three first half touchdowns were not enough for Texas A&M as the Aggies fell to Florida, 41-24, Saturday afternoon at Kyle Field.

Achane provided an early spark on Texas A&M’s opening drive with a 65-yard rush that led to his 5-yard touchdown run, putting the Aggies on the board for a 7-3 lead.

The speedster found the end zone a second time after a 5-yard touchdown pass from Haynes King to give the Aggies their second lead late in the opening stanza, 14-10.

Following an exchange of field goals, including a successful 24-yard attempt by Randy Bond, Achane found the end zone for a third time, punching it in from 2 yards, giving A&M a 24-20 lead with a minute left in the first half.

The Aggies threatened numerous times in the second half before turnovers and 21 unanswered points by Florida ultimately stalled a Texas A&M comeback.

Jacoby Mathews led the Aggie defense with a career-high 15 tackles and two pass breakups, while Jarred Kerr added a career-high 10 tackles.
