22 yards for a touchdown, giving the Aggies a solid
14-point lead.
“I think every team has that play in their play-
book,” Farris said. “When I saw [Flemming]
threw a good ball, 1 was just hoping to catch it.”
The Aggie offense scored on their third straight
possession with more than 10 minutes left in the
half, when the Aggies went 32 yards on 1 1 plays
and allowed sophomore Cody Scales to connect on
a 29 yard field goal. The Aggies were successful on
a third and nine play, as well as converting on a
fourth and one to help the Aggies claim a 17-0 lead.
The Irish put points on the board just before the
half, when they took over after an A&M punt, its
first of the game, with 2:16 left in the half.
Taking over at midfield, Notre Dame moved in
to cut into the A&M lead, converting on a fourth
and seven play to keep the drive alive. The Aggie
defense stiffened and forced the Irish to settle for
a 47-yard Nicholas Setta field goal.
Despite cutting the lead to 17-3, the Irish lost
Holiday, who was hit just as he threw the ball.
Holiday, a San Antonio native, suffered a sprained
neck and did not return.
After the Aggie defense forced another three-
and-out series, A&M mounted an impressive
drive, but got nothing out of it. Taking the ball at
their own 27-yard line, the Aggies slowly moved
down the field, covering 60 yards on 18 plays and
running 7:37 off the clock, time the Irish desper
ately needed.
The Aggies converted on another fourth-down
play, but had to attempt a field goal on the next set
of downs. Scales’ 30-yard attempt was wide left.
and the Irish took over at their own 20.
The Aggies held the lead in the fourth qujj|
they finished off the Irish just two minutest
final quarter.
The Irish faced fourth down and six. and,
ior punter Joey Hildbold had been booming
ball the entire afternoon. Senior free safety
Brooks, known as “Big Play Jay” becauseofl
special teams play, found an opening up the
die and got a hand on the Hildbold punt.The
then bounced directly into the hands of
man linebacker Randall Webb, who returned
ball 13 yards into the endzone to give theAgp
a 24-3 lead.
“The blocked punt is when I think the car
rock bottom,” said Notre Dame head coach S
Davie. “I am not sure where we are at rightn
We have a lot of games left and we are not g,j
to quit.”

“I have high expectations for
this football team, particularly
with the defense,” said A&M head
coach R.C. Slocum. “I take great
pride in the defensive tradition,
and they did a great job today.”
Notre Dame managed to get
past midfield once in the half,
driving to the A&M 40-yard
line before A&M senior corner-
back Sammy Davis intercepted
Notre Dame quarterback Matt
LoVeccio’s pass at the A&M 28
yard line with 3:57 remaining in
the third quarter.
Jt was not just the secondary
that stymied Notre Dame.
A&M’s defense also record
ed six sacks for the second
straight game, impressive con
sidering the Aggies lost sopho
more noseguard Ty Warren to a
strained Achilles tendon in the
first quarter. Warren, a staple of
the Aggie defense, had recorded
18 tackles through the first three
games of the season.
After Davis’s interception in
the third quarter, Notre Dame
managed one first down as the
Aggies forced four straight
three-and-out series. The total
yards for Notre Dame on those
three drives was six yards.
It was a game that Carlyle
Holiday, who was making his
first career start, will not forget
— assuming that he can
remember it.
Holiday spent as much time
on his back after getting hit as he
did on his feet, as A&M’s vicious
pass rush continuously cut
through the Notre Dame’s offen
sive line. Not suprisingly.
Holiday left the game in the sec
ond quarter with a sprained neck.
“1 can’t recall being hit that
many times in one game,”
Holiday said.
Matt LoVecchio, Holiday's
repldcbmdnt, did not fare much
better. LoVecchio finished 6-
for-12 with one interception and
just 48 yards of offense, and was
the second quarterback casualty
for the Irish after taking a hard
hit in the fourth quarter.
“We came out with a lot of
fire and emotion,” said junior
linebacker Brian Gamble. “Our
mindset was that we were going
to go out and stop them. We
were more physical than they
were today.”
