BRYAN-COLLEGE STATION – The No. 3 Texas A&M football team took down Samford, 48-0, to pick up its 11^th win of the season Saturday afternoon at Kyle Field.

Redshirt sophomore quarterback Marcel Reed made the start and finished his limited action throwing for 120 yards on 10-of-15 passing, connecting on three touchdown strikes. Texas A&M (11-0) saw four quarterbacks register snaps in the win over the Bulldogs (1-11). Redshirt senior running back Amari Daniels led the ground attack with a career-high 106 yards on nine attempts, scoring his first touchdown of the season. Redshirt freshman wide receiver Ashton Bethel-Roman paced all receivers with 62 yards of a pair of touchdown grabs, while junior wide receiver KC Concepcion added five catches for 42 yards and touchdown.

Freshman defensive end Marco Jones led the defense with seven tackles in the victory, including one for a 4-yard loss, and freshman linebacker Noah Mikhail added six takedowns.
