Check out the best social media reactions to Texas A&M win at Florida
The Texas A&M football team may have a battle beginning for its most important position.
Following a dominant 33-20 victory at Florida, head coach Mike Elko may have to consider a change to the Aggies starting quarterback. In place of injured junior Conner Weigman, redshirt freshman Marcel Reed started Saturday for the second time in his collegiate career alongside the 2023 Texas Bowl.
Reed completed 11-of-17 attempts for 178 yards and 2 touchdowns. He added 13 carries for 84 yards and 1 tuddy, breaking Gators' ankles all the way until the final buzzer. While Weigman's career in College Station has been limited due to injuries, Reed's brilliance may be creating a controversy under center in Aggieland.
Reed looks like a much better fit in the playbook created by offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Collin Klein. Next up for Texas A&M is a matchup at Kyle Field with Bowling Green on Saturday at 6:30 p.m.

Real deal baller
Good call on the Texas A&M backup QB

Unbeaten on the road
Finally over
Deja vu
'Good for a backup'
Too many commercials
ESPN, man, I'm begging. We just got out of a 45 minute delay, not every stoppage has to result in a TV timeout.

Blowouts be like
Bye Billy!
If Texas A&M walks into Gainesville with a backup quarterback and beats Florida, Billy Napier will be the definition of fired.

Countdown begins
Texas A&M hasn't won a road game since 2021.
They're playing the back-up QB.
They're up 33-7.
That should be the story. It isn't.
It's simply how many games does Billy Napier have left at this point— Aaron Torres (@Aaron_Torres) September 14, 2024
What's an Aggie?
Gators deserve better
Complain about the targeting call all you want -- and it was nuts -- but the poor Florida fans standing in the rain deserved better than that defensive performance.

Ankle breaker
