Hill’s 4 TD passes lead No. 9 A&M over Lamar 73-3

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) — Kenny Hill threw for 283 yards and four touchdowns in less than three quarters as No. 9 Texas A&M rolled to a 73-3 win over Lamar on Saturday night in front of the largest crowd for a college game in Texas history.

It was the first game in the newly renovated and expanded Kyle Field and drew a record crowd of 104,728.

After a lightning delay of 2 hours, 5 minutes, Texas A&M (2-0) wasted no time getting going. Hill found Speedy Noil for a 44-yard pass on his first throw and Trey Williams had a 33-yard touchdown run two plays later to make it 7-0.

Hill threw touchdown passes of 24, 51, 18 and nine yards in his second game since taking over for Johnny Manziel. He threw for a school-record 511 yards in an upset at then-No. 9 South Carolina last week.

Caleb Berry was 16 of 42 for 153 yards and an interception for Lamar (1-1.)
