Home field advantage: Texas A&M fires cannon in face of 2 UMass players

Two UMass players were unintentionally part of Texas A&M’s pregame fanfare.
Umass linebacker Jalen Stewart and a second player that we couldn’t identify were in the corner of the Aggies end zone at Kyle Field apparently praying or meditating before the start of Saturday’s game when the Aggies cannon went off and blew smoke in their faces.

It’s doubtful the act was intentional and since the school doesn’t use live ammo, no one’s lives were in danger. That being said it doesn’t seem like the UMass appreciated it.
Oh well both teams will have to fight it out on the field. So far the 1-9 Minutemen and 3-7 Aggies are tied 3-3 early in the second quarter.
