At Legacy, the Battle of the Bulls was a see-saw game of wills as both teams put in a full game effort. With plenty of big plays, eventually the Aggies came out on top.

Senior Jimmie Finister and sophomore Larry Norman opened the scoring in the game as the Aggies jumped14-0 first quarter lead. For the Aggies, the double wing looked dominate in the first quarter as they closed the first twelve minutes with major momentum.

The second quarter saw a shift in momentum as quarterback KaShawn Richardson struck in the opening minutes with a big pass to standout Joe Murray. Five minutes later, Richardson would add a 3-yard run off a sneak to allow Legacy to tie the game 14-14 which would remain the score at the half.

Both team would look to gain leverage in the second half before Rasheem Parks powered into the end zone with 3:30 let in the third quarter,

The Longhorns would answer the score almost immediately as speedster Charles Julien would get in from 50-yards out but the Aggies would seek to put the game in their hands with Finister finding room to get in for 48-yards with a burst up the middle just before the close of the third.

The Aggies moved fully ahead in the fourth quarter when sophomore Herman Gray scored from 19-yards out early.

The Longhorns remained in the fight after Richardson made a big 47-yard pass to Jeremiah Branch set up a short score by Julien but the defense couldn't finish it out as the Aggies finished the scoring a minute later with a 12-yard Jacob Speaks run.
