Texas A&M’s injection of speed, explosiveness into offense powering Aggies’ meteoric rise
The additions of KC Concepcion and Mario Craver have added a new dynamic to Texas A&M and made the Aggies’ offense into a special unit.
Tommy Moffitt is something of a legend in Baton Rouge, La., a former LSU strength and conditioning coach who logged more than two decades with the Tigers from 2000-21. But after losing his job with the Tigers just a few years ago, Moffitt earned a dose of revenge over his former school Saturday.
Texas A&M football required a big-time comeback to seize victory on the road against its hardened, Southeastern Conference opponent in LSU, a team that has had the Aggies' name in the recent past, winning all six matches in Death Valley since A&M joined the SEC.
Texas A&M football captured its eighth win of the season Saturday. The victory had some positives, but also many areas to improve for the undefeated Aggies.

The Texas A&M defense suffocated Garrett Nussmeier and the LSU offense, holding the Tigers to just 278 total yards while sacking LSU quarterbacks seven times. The Tigers had just 14 yards in the second half until a 75-yard, garbage-time touchdown drive in the final minutes.
