The Texas A&M Aggies will face their first road test of the season on Saturday, and without Rueben Owens in the backfield, Amari Daniels is once again looking to step up.
After an offseason chock-full of expectations, the Maroon & White took the field against a higher-ranked Notre Dame squad, and the result was disappointing. A strong defense — arguably the lone bright spot of the contest — was overshadowed by a stagnant offense as the Aggies fell short to begin their season on a losing note.
"If we play our brand of football, we will be alright," Aggies running back Amari Daniels said. "We can’t let the outside bother us." "It was a scrimmage," Daniels explained, "and I saw my brother went down. You don’t want that for anyone. , it was next man up.” With just 19 carries through two games, Daniels has done his part to plug the gap. He's averaged 5.6 yards per carry — on par with each of his last three seasons — and scored more touchdowns than both of his first two seasons combined.“Those are my brothers," Daniels said of the Aggies' other two running backs, Le'Veon Moss and E.J. Smith. "I get excited thinking about it. We compete and make each other better.
