Sophomore running back Derek Farmer led the Aggies with 122 yards rushing on 19 carries for his third 100-yard rushing performance of his career and the first since last season against Iowa State. ‘‘We haven’t been doing too well the last couple of weeks,” Farmer said. “We wanted to come out and show that we do have an effective offense.” The Wrecking Crew, ranked No. 2 in the nation entering the contest, played its usual domi nating game. Louisiana Tech came into the game averaging more than 300 yards passing; however, the Aggie defense held junior quarterback Luke McCown to 172 yards. “They are a bunch of mean, big guys who wanted to kill me,” McCown said. “This is the first time I haven’t been able to move the ball on a team.” Many critics wondered if the Wrecking Crew would be able to contain Louisiana Tech’s passing. “Coming in we had proved we could defend the run,” said senior linebacker Brian Gamble. “But people were saying ‘what about the pass?’ I think tonight we proved we could do both.” Work. • Work.
