Twitter reacts to a wild Texas A&M victory over Tennessee
Just when we thought the 2016 SEC season couldn’t get any crazier, Texas A&M and Tennessee played a game that was every bit as insane as the Vols’ Hail Mary victory at Georgia last week.
Down 35-21 with just over four minutes left in the game, Tennessee fought back to tie it up and watched as the Aggies’ kicker missed a field goal that would have won the game.
In double overtime, however, Tennessee’s luck finally ran out and Texas A&M QB Trevor Knight sealed an Aggies’ victory with a powerful touchdown run.
The game drew quite the reaction on Twitter, as evidenced by these tweets:

With no regard to the laws of science the Vols somehow played their best game and their worst game simultaneously.

Maybe the #Vols win next week if they don't have 7 turnovers

Nice win by the Aggies. Just don't start chanting "we want Bama". They might hear you and take it out on us.
