Auburn football: Bo Nix can’t carry team far enough against Texas A&M

Auburn football Saturday, Dec. 5, 2020. Texas A&M leads Auburn 14-10 at halftime.

Bo Nix tried to put Auburn football on his back against the #5 ranked Aggies. He was unsuccessful, as Texas A&M ended up with a 31-20 victory at Jordan-Hare Stadium.

You cannot blame Bo Nix for Auburn football’s fourth loss of the season to the fifth-best team in the country Saturday afternoon on the Plains. The War Eagle sure isn’t.

Nix was valiant in his 11 rushing attempts, good for the most attempts of any Tiger. Cartavious “Tank” Bigsby was limited to nine carries, but made the most of them, rushing for 76 yards and 8.
