Colt McCoy might have just provided Heisman Trophy voters with a "moment" to remember him by.

Texas quarterback Colt McCoy needed a Heisman Trophy-type game. How about 304 yards passing, 175 yards rushing and five total touchdowns in a nationally televised win over a bitter rival? He needed a Heisman moment.

Colt McCoy threw four touchdown passes and No. 3 Texas overcame a huge game by Texas A&M quarterback Jerrod Johnson to wrap up an undefeated regular season with a 49-39 win over the Aggies on Thursday night.

In the case of Texas and Texas A&M, the two are intertwined. "They have our name in their fight song and we have theirs in ours," Kindle said.

The Texas Aggie football knows they can't make a lot of mistakes Thursday evening in the Lone Star Showdown and one thing they have to do is slow up Texas's potent offensive attack.

Texas A&M linebacker Kyle Mangan grew up in Brenham, a pleasant town tucked south of Aggieland and east of Austin best known for its Blue Bell ice cream.

In addition to keeping its hopes and dreams alive, Texas added the Big 12 South title to its season accomplishments.

Texas A&M senior defensive end Jacob Green stood before a crowd of 40,000 at the Aggie Bonfire that crisp fall night in 1979.

The two schools are separated by only 84 miles as the crow flies along Texas State Highway 6. Baylor and Texas A&M have been longtime rivals, playing a 99-game series that predated their memberships in the Southwest Conference.

Texas must be feeling pretty good about where the Longhorns stand in the BCS standings when coach Mack Brown can crack jokes about it - even when they dropped a spot.

He can see the comparison. He just doesn't buy it. Some have suggested Mike Sherman's Texas A&M football team is in the same boat as it was four weeks ago.

Colorado gave its fans a reason to get excited on this Saturday afternoon, finally showing some life - and big-play ability - on offense.

It's not that Texas A&M's football players didn't enjoy being home for the holidays last year.

Mike Sherman says he gives his Texas A&M football players about 24 hours to digest a game, win or lose.

BOULDER, Colo. - The fans were protesting by wearing powder blue and booing, the Colorado Buffaloes were reeling and Tyler Hansen's head had to be spinning.

Posted by ESPN.com's Tim Griffin Texas A&M defensive back Jordan Pugh has just changed momentum with a big interception of Colorado quarterback Tyler Hansen just into Colorado territory.

Texas A&M's Von Miller, his motor on the verge of overheating, leaped over an astonished Iowa State offensive lineman and blocked a field-goal attempt a week ago.
