Texas A&M’s Week 6 matchup vs. Missouri is off to a solid start for the Aggies, currently holding a 24-0 halftime lead over the visiting Tigers, as redshirt sophomore quarterback Conner Weigman surprisingly made his first start in nearly a month.
Returning to practice this week, Weigman looked like his old self from the first snap, as his footwork, accuracy, and throwing touch were beyond impressive, completing 15/19 for 193 yards while running back Amari Daniels recorded two of the team’s three touchdowns so far.
Defensively, the Aggies shut down the Tigers, allowing just 63 yards through the air and 16 yards on the ground at the half.
However, Texas A&M freshman punter Tyler White’s second-half punt with just seconds remaining was one of the best kicks you’ll see all year, as the former 4-star punter perfectly placed the ball inside the one-yard line and perfectly rolled out of bounds.

This was also Texas A&M’s first punt of the game, as the Aggies scored a touchdown or field goal on every previous drive.
