It was a brisk October night in Oxford, Mississippi. Texas A&M was trailing Ole Miss by a score of 23-3 and Aggie quarterback Kyle Allen had just fluttered his 13th consecutive incomplete pass of the third quarter, landing somewhere between its intended target and the fifth row. Aggie fans (and fans of completed passes, quite frankly) watched aghast as head coach Kevin Sumlin left Allen out there to fail repeatedly with no relief in sight.
Aggie faithful wanted to see freshman wunderkind and Aggie legacy Kyler Murray replace Allen at some point, certainly on this night and maybe forever. However, when the time came for Sumlin to give Allen the hook, in came third stringer Jake Hubenak, who mopped up the final few minutes with a pedestrian line of 6 for 11 for 46 yards. Murray sat, in uniform, and watched the waning moments of the 23-3 loss with everybody else.
