COLLEGE STATION, Texas -- When Mississippi coach Hugh Freeze saw Shea Patterson win a state championship as a high school junior he walked away with a man crush on the quarterback.Safe to say hes still crushing on Patterson after his performance Saturday night.Patterson threw for 338 yards and two touchdowns in his debut and Gary Wunderlich made a 39-yard field goal with 37 seconds left to lift Mississippi past No. 10 Texas A&M, 29-28 on Saturday night.The Rebels pulled the redshirt off Patterson, the highly regarded recruit, to start in place of Chad Kelly, who suffered a season-ending knee injury last week.Ive recruited this kid since he was a ninth-grader and Ive kind of always known that he has that `it quality, Freeze said. The guy just makes plays. He doesnt get rattled a lot.Mississippi (5-5, 2-4 Southeastern Conference) trailed by 15 entering the fourth quarter before Patterson got going.A 13-yard touchdown reception by Josh Reynolds put A&M up 28-19. Patterson then connected with Van Jefferson on a 32-yard reception for his second TD pass of the quarter to cut the lead to 28-26 with 5:17 remaining.A&M (7-3, 4-3) had to punt and Patterson moved the offense into position for Wunderlichs winner.The Aggies had a chance to win it late, but Jake Hubenak had a pass intercepted by Deontay Anderson to secure the victory. Hubenak was making his first start this season in place of Trevor Knight, who injured his shoulder last week.I put it on me, Hubenak said. I think it didnt do a good enough job in the second half.Early in the fourth quarter Patterson looked like he was channeling A&M Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel when he scrambled to one side, avoided the rush and ran the other way before launching a 6-yard touchdown pass to Damoreea Stringfellow to get Ole Miss within 21-13.Its crazy, my first start -- Johnny Manziel was my favorite player growing up, Patterson said. Its ironic that I get my first start at Kyle Field. Its awesome.On their next drive Stringfellow reached out with his right hand and tipped the ball with his fingertips before reeling it in with one hand for an eye-popping 40-yard reception.There were several key points but that was certainly one, Freeze said. Hes one of the most talented kids Ive ever coached ... it was a phenomenal catch.Akeem Judds 21-yard run made it 21-19, but the two-point conversion failed.The Aggies led 21-6 at halftime thanks to two touchdown runs by Keith Ford.The Rebels had turnovers on their first two possessions of the second half, but Texas A&M couldnt convert either of them into points. Patterson threw an interception on the first one and Jason Pellerin was sacked and fumbled after that.They just made some great plays at crucial times and they got one over on us, Texas A&M defensive end Myles Garrett said.THE TAKEAWAYMISSISSIPPI: Patterson showed why he was the No. 1 rated dual-threat quarterback recruit by Rivals last year, and should make Ole Miss fans excited about his potential for next season. But first hell look to get the Rebels a win over Vanderbilt next week to make them bowl eligible for the fifth straight season.TEXAS A&M: Hubenak couldnt make plays in the second half and the Aggie struggled with tackling yet again. Hell have to improve if Texas A&M hopes to beat LSU in two weeks and salvage this season that started out with six straight wins before the Aggies dropped three of their last four games.INJURY REPORTTEXAS A&M: LB Armani Watts was injured in the first quarter and didnt return. Watts had to be helped off the field and wasnt able to put any pressure on his right leg. Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin did not give an update on his condition.KEY NUMBERSOle Miss outgained A&M 490 to 342 yards and piled up 30 first downs to just 13 by the Aggies. Texas A&M converted just six of its 14 third-down attempts and was 0 for 2 on fourth-down tries.Those two fourth down opportunities ended up costing us, Sumlin said. The ability to get either three points on either one of those, or a touchdown, in a game like that is a big deal.POLL IMPLICATIONSTEXAS A&M: The Aggies will certainly fall a few spots after losing to an unranked opponent. However they might not tumble that far since three teams ahead of them in the poll also lost on Saturday as well as a handful of teams below them.UP NEXTMISSISSIPPI : The Rebels visit Vanderbilt next Saturday.TEXAS A&M : The Aggies take a break from SEC play by hosting Texas-San Antonio next Saturday before wrapping up the regular season against LSU on Thanksgiving night.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-Top25 Wholesale Cheap NFL Jerseys .

North Queensland have consolidated their spot in the top four with a comfortable 20-0 shutout of South Sydney in Cairns.In front of a strong crowd of 14,923 at Barlow Park, the defending premiers barely got out of first gear to claim their most comprehensive win in almost a month, and extend the Rabbitohs losing streak to five.The Rabbitohs barely fired a shot in front of a strong Barlow Park crowd of 14,923, who instead watched Cowboys skipper Johnathan Thurston put on a clinic.The Queensland State of Origin star scored a try and had a hand in another, helping the visitors consolidate their spot in the top four before getting a well-deserved early mark in the 75th minute.While Cowboys coach Paul Green was delighted with keeping the Rabbitohs scoreless, co-captain Matt Scott rued an opportunity to pour on the points.We were good without being great, Scott said post-game.Defensively it was a lot better, we spoke a bit about that during the week.Letting in five tries against Manly last week was a bit disappointing and defensively we came out and improved a lot.With the ball we can be a bit more clinical, we controlled field position pretty well but execution a couple of times let us down.For the Rabbitohs however, the defeat continues their miserable 2016 campaign and leaves them with the near-impossible task of winning all eight of ttheir remaining games to make the finals.ddddddddddddLed by James Tamou and Matt Scott, the Cowboys forwards strolled through the Rabbitohs middle with concerning ease, paving the way for Thurston and company to ruin John Suttons 250-game celebrations.Greg Inglis and Luke Keary tried hard for the visitors, as did Sam Burgess, although the star forward succumbed to a knee injury midway through the second half.The game started horribly for the home side from the moment winger Joe Burgess was trapped in his in-goal following Kyle Feldts trademark towering kickoff.Right from the start, the possession in the game definitely went against us, but thats rugby league, Rabbitohs coach Michael Maguire said.Youve got to be able to handle those periods, right through that first half we werent ale to build momentum in what we were trying to do and they did.From there it was all the Cowboys, who used a 65 per cent possession rate in the first half to lay on tries for Thurston and Scott and take a comfortable 14-0 lead at the break.A try to Javid Bowen kicked the advantage to three tries early in the second half before the Cowboys closed out the match by keeping an opposition side scoreless for the third time this year.
