Which team made the biggest statement?
The enemy within did in Texas A&M's dreams of winning a national championship.
The enemy within the state of Texas, that is.
With this year's College Cup set for Aggie Soccer Stadium on the campus of Texas A&M, the hosts had a golden opportunity to play at home during the season's final weekend and win the Big 12's first national championship. Coming off a quarterfinal loss last season against North Carolina in which they pushed the Tar Heels as much as either UCLA or Notre Dame subsequently did in the College Cup, the Aggies spent much of this fall ranked No. 1 in the nation and cruised to a Big 12 regular-season title.
