Max Johnson and Jake Johnson connected for a game-tying touchdown pass against Alabama Saturday afternoon.
The 2 Aggies brothers have now connected for a score for the 2nd straight week after QB Johnson took over for Conner Weigman a few weeks ago. It’s Jake Johnson’s 2nd TD on the year, both of course coming from his brother.

The Aggies have since scored again to take a 17-10 lead over the Tide heading into halftime at Kyle Field.
And Johnson is playing well early, doing a good job of getting the ball to his playmakers. He’s 8-of-14 for 151 yards and 1 touchdown, spreading the love evenly across 4 receivers.
This is exactly the start Texas A&M needed against No. 11. Both teams were slow out of the gate, but Texas A&M’s adjustments yielded a pair of scores in the 2nd quarter.
The Tide will receiver out of the halftime break.
