The future of Ole Miss football officially arrived in College Station on Saturday night. Forced into his first start some 10 months before it was expected, five-star freshman Shea Patterson led a dramatic comeback over No. 8 Texas A&M, bagging the Rebels’ fifth win of the season with a 29-28 W.
Down 21-6 entering the fourth quarter, Patterson led a dramatic comeback on the road in front of 100 thousand Aggie fans. He threw three fourth quarter touchdowns, then led the Rebels down the field for a game-winning field goal with just 37 seconds on the clock. The defense, which limited A&M to just 7 points in the second half, stiffened with a game-sealing interception to seal the deal.
