Southwest Champs: Arkansas beats Aggies for first time in 10 years

ARLINGTON, Texas — For the first time ever, Arkansas is coming home from Texas with a victory in a Southeastern Conference football game.

The No. 16 Razorbacks defeated No. 7 Texas A&M 20-10 on Saturday in the Southwest Classic at AT&T Stadium. It was the first time the Razorbacks beat the Aggies since Texas A&M joined the SEC for the 2012 season.

Arkansas (4-0, 1-0 SEC) snapped a nine-game losing streak in the series against the Aggies (3-1, 0-1).

The Razorbacks built a 17-0 first-half lead, then held on in the second half when starting quarterback KJ Jefferson was in and out of the game with a lower-body injury.
