Three takeaways from Texas A&M football's dominant and expected win over McNeese
Three takeaways from Texas A&M football absolutely housing the McNeese Cowboys, 52-10
Some may say that there are no notes you can take away from Texas A&M football simply smacking down an FCS team. But I say that there are cathedrals everywhere for those with eyes to see. And there are... uh, football takeaways in the-the games... in every game where-in every game if you want them. Or if you look for them I mean.
Here's what we learned about the Aggies against McNeese.
3 takeaways from Texas A&M football vs. McNeese: Weigman looks to have rebuilt his confidence
The haters were still out in force even after this game went final. But a close study of the game shows that no. 15 in Maroon and White ended up looking far better in this one than he did against the Irish.
Weigman started off looking a little shaky. It looked like he may have been bailing on pockets early rather than going all the way through his progressions. But as the game wore on, especially after Conner got out there and ran a couple of times, you could see him settle in.
The advanced numbers back up how well he played. PFF had Conner grading out as the best QB in the country in week two, just a week removed from being on the exact opposite end of that metric.
The location and velocity on his throws looked much, much improved. Detractors like to swap results-based thinking for process-based thinking much of the time, but from the latter perspective, things looked a lot better compared to week one. And in the former, as well, to be fair—it was just against McNeese, which makes people want to discredit it!
