This wasn’t the efficiency that Texas A&M needed or wanted.
But does that basically matter at this level?
Before a near-empty Kyle Field on a depressing Saturday, the Aggies ended a historic shedding streak with a pedestrian 20-3 win over the UMass Minutemen.
Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher’s message targeted on “win,” however the disappointment within the state of this system was apparent.
“We haven’t won in a six-game losing streak,” Fisher stated, referring to A&M’s longest skid since 1972. “No matter what you get, any win is a great win. And it’s a really good win.”
That will be debated.
What was evident on a chilly and wet Senior Day was that this sport wasn’t in regards to the seniors. Whatever will be salvaged from this misplaced marketing campaign, which mercifully has one sport left, is about underclassmen that should be a part of subsequent 12 months’s rebound.
If there may be one.
Freshmen similar to receiver Noah Thomas, working again Le’Veon Moss, linebacker Martrell Harris Jr., and defensive linemen Malick Sylla and Albert Regis had essentially the most vital showings of their younger careers.
Sophomore receiver Moose Muhammad III returned from his wardrobe malfunction along with his longest profession catch. Another sophomore, working again Amari Daniels, logged his longest run.
The Aggies (4-7) have been with out working again Devon Achane, freshman receiver Evan Stewart and tight finish Max Wright. The contributions from some ability gamers who haven’t seen the sector a lot this season give some hope.
“You can see Le’Veon is explosive,” Fisher stated. “He’s going to be a really good player. Noah made good plays. I thought Amari Daniels ran the football very well. Those young guys are going to be really good players. Proud of those guys.”

And then there’s freshman quarterback Conner Weigman, who handed for 191 regardless of a gradual downpour and ran for an additional 66 yards. He’s opened his profession with 114 makes an attempt with out an interception.
“Thought Conner did a really nice job in the game,” Fisher stated. “Did a great job with his legs, making decisions, making plays early in the game, win the field position. You can see he’s athletic and can run.
“Was accurate with the ball. Made good throws. The balls were really wet. We got them dried up a little bit and did a better job. We didn’t throw as much in the second half, but I thought he managed the game, did things really well for the game. Thought he made some really good decisions.”
Not that many individuals noticed it. Most of the sparse gathering shuffled out of Kyle Field after the band’s halftime efficiency, leaving an eerily empty stadium that needed to be demoralizing for these in maroon and white.
“We’re all disappointed, not where we want to be,” Fisher stated. “But they will be packed out of here next week.”
Texas A&M put the caps on the season nobody noticed coming Saturday in opposition to LSU. It’s the final probability for the Aggies to style victory in 2022.
If something, that’s the takeaway after taking down lowly UMass.
“Just remind you what it feels like, remind you what that is,” Fisher stated. “Things are not far away. Everything goes back and forth based on how you practice and what you do and what you do on that day. It still feels good to go do that. That’s what you’re there for. That’s the ultimate goal.”
