Texas A&amp;M QB Marcel Reed and his Aggie teammates troll LSU with a “Get the Gat” TikTok celebration. Reed’s caption: “8-0! Death Valley was still underwhelming 😌”

Heck of a 1-on-1 rep between Aaron Gregory and Brandon Arrington from open practice Monday, on a Brady Hart pass. Arrington located the ball and poked it out after Gregory jumped up for it, but the concentration from Gregory to still secure it was impressive. 🎥: Cooper Deel

Texas A&amp;M coach Mike Elko said what a lot of Aggie fans probably thought when they learned Texas, LSU and Missouri are set to be their three annual opponents: “Missouri, I’m not sure how that fit in, but it is what it is.”

While Texas coach Jim Schlossnagle was talking with SEC Network, outfielder Jayden Duplantier lost a fly ball from Boston Kellner in the lights, leading to a triple. Schlossnagle famously hates in-game interviews: “Just add this to the list boys.” 😂

Crazy to think that if Marcel Reed didn’t convert this fourth-and-12 for a first down, Texas A&amp;M probably isn’t in the College Football Playoff. A season-saving play and comeback for the Aggies.

Texas A&amp;M guard Rylan Griffen on Mississippi State standout Josh Hubbard: "Josh actually came to me, and he was like 'Dang, are y’all gonna stop pressing? I'm getting tired out here.’ And I'm like, 'Man, unfortunately not, bro.’” 😂

Texas A&amp;M coach Bucky McMillan after a 94-91 (3OT) win at LSU: “I couldn’t have lived if it went to a fourth overtime. … If he made that three, LSU would’ve won by forfeit. I would’ve just walked out of there. I couldn’t have done it anymore.” 😂😂

Alabama WR transfer Isaiah Horton on why he came to Texas A&amp;M: “I believe in coach Elko, the culture he’s building here, I believe in Marcel Reed. … I believe in him with all my heart, and I believe in this program, and I believe in this culture.”

Texas A&amp;M WR Isaiah Horton said we should ask fellow Alabama transfer OL Wilkin Formby why he’s always smiling. Here’s what he said:

Texas A&amp;M trolls Florida with Tom Petty while leading 31-17 during the two-minute timeout.

Texas A&amp;M TE Nate Boerkircher breaks down his game-winning TD vs. Notre Dame: “When the ball was in the air, I couldn’t even see it because of the lights. I was blinded by those lights. I saw it right before it got to my hands. Luckily, it was a great ball. It just appeared.”

The second straight road game Texas A&amp;M clears out the opposing venue during the fourth quarter, and the crowd of Aggie fans are largely what’s left.

Texas A&amp;M cornerback Will Lee III: “Everybody is tired of seeing (people) say we are going to be an 8-4 team and stuff like that. It is really disrespectful, and everybody is taking that to heart.”

Folks, I’m currently locked in an Embassy Suites bathroom. The emergency dispatch is on the way. Anyone have any suggestions? 😂

Texas A&amp;M freshman Tamarion Watkins primarily played safety in high school but looked natural at linebacker in the Maroon and White Game yesterday. Smart player with good instincts. He also stepped in for the injured Daymion Sanford.

This win clearly meant a lot to Tommy Moffitt.

Mike Elko on NFL Network during the NFL Combine: “I like this graphic. Can we keep this one up for the rest of the broadcast?”

Asked Texas A&amp;M defensive end Anto Saka about making the Freaks List. He said all his weight room numbers have “skyrocketed” this offseason. “They have a science here, and it works.”

Texas A&amp;M RB Rueben Owens II said he wants to be a 1,000-yard rusher this season. I asked him what he needs to do for that to happen. His answer was refreshingly honest: “I need to stop stumbling. … I could’ve been a 1,000-yard rusher last year if I didn’t fall so many times.”

Here is the final speech Jimbo Fisher gave to his team as Texas A&amp;M's head football coach (via "The Pulse"). It came after a 51-10 win over Mississippi State last Saturday.

Texas A&amp;M coach Mike Elko on the reports about him possibly being a candidate for the Penn State opening: “I don’t discuss it with my players. I think it’s absolutely hilarious how (the media) covers coaches. I think three weeks ago, I was getting fired; now, I’m getting hired.”

Saw this #sickedit on TikTok. Taurean York’s play recognition vs. Auburn was on another level. Such a smart linebacker.

Watch these two locker room speeches. The difference is stunning.

Former Texas A&amp;M QB Johnny Manziel explained on his podcast what went into him missing his scheduled “College GameDay” appearance for A&amp;M vs. Miami. He said he planned to go to the game with Drake but got sick the night before with an “unbelievable” virus.

Texas A&amp;M RB Rueben Owens II identified two plays from last season that still bother him: one against Texas and the other vs. Missouri. He believes he could be a 1,000-yard rusher this fall if those types of plays don't happen.

Here is every deep throw from Texas A&amp;M QB Marcel Reed (with no defenders) that I took across a couple periods of practice tonight.

Texas A&amp;M TE Kiotti Armstrong using his entire 6-foot-5, 285-pound frame to come down with one heck of a catch on a moon ball from Marcel Reed. DBs Brandon Arrington and Tawfiq Byard contested on the play (via Kiotti Armstrong).

Texas A&amp;M coach Mike Elko on no opponent getting called for an accepted holding penalty since the Bowling Green game on Sept. 21:

“We want Messi!” chants break out here at Kyle Field.

Texas A&amp;M DC Jay Bateman gave his thoughts on the viral video of Texas A&amp;M DE Cashius Howell jawing at LSU’s left tackle after beating him for a sack of QB Garrett Nussmeier: “I absolutely loved it.”

Texas A&amp;M wide receivers Terry Bussey, Isaiah Horton, Aaron Gregory and Mario Craver.

Texas A&amp;M OL Ar’maj Reed-Adams on the Texas players celebrating at midfield and stomping on the logo after the Longhorns’ win last season: “Cowards do what cowards do.”

Texas A&amp;M OC Holmon Wiggins meets with the media to give an update on the offense through five preseason practices.

Johnny Manziel on the “Nightcap” podcast teases he has a surprise for when A&amp;M hosts South Carolina on Nov. 15: “Those boys in that locker room, for what I have coming in that game, are going to be more motivated than any team, any game, in the last 15 years at Texas A&amp;M.”

Here is the TV copy of the play that ended with Texas A&amp;M DB Tyreek Chappell going down vs. Arkansas, which the National Coordinator of Football Officiating determined as an attempt to feign injury. A&amp;M has been fined $50,000 and coach Mike Elko has received a public reprimand.

What Mike Elko told to his Aggie team after their 49-25 win at LSU, as seen on the new episode of “The Pulse.” “We wanted a championship. We wanted to compete for Atlanta. We wanted to be in the playoffs. We’re 8-0 — we still haven’t accomplished jack sh** yet in that regard.”

Former Alabama coach Nick Saban claims on the Pat McAfee that Texas A&amp;M “pipes in” crowd noise at Kyle Field. "I did more complaining to the SEC office — it was more than complaining that I don't really want to say on this show."
