See Texas A&M's wild scoop and score on Arkansas football fumble
ARLINGTON, Texas — Arkansas football's matchups with Texas A&M have a tendency to get weird. In Saturday's Southwest Classic at AT&T Stadium, that started early.
Late in the second quarter with Arkansas leading 14-7, Arkansas quarterback KJ Jefferson fumbled near the goal line while leaping for the end zone from 3-yard-line. Texas A&M defensive back Tyreek Chappell recovered the ball and ran the other way, and while Arkansas tried to tackle him, he handed off to defensive back Demani Richardson.
Richardson made a break for the end zone, and the Aggies scored. He and Chappell combined for a 97-yard fumble return.

If that wasn't weird enough, a bad snap caused the Aggies to miss the extra point attempt. Arkansas maintained a 14-13 lead.
No. 10 Arkansas (3-0) is going for its second straight win over No. 20 Texas A&M (2-1). The Razorbacks won last season's matchup 20-10, their first win over the Aggies in a decade.
