Total domination for the Aggies yesterday ignited plenty of noise online.

What triggered everybody online was the smack talk from Missouri toward Texas A&M in the week leading up to it.

Le’Veon Moss made his mind pretty clear in the postgame press conference that there was extra spice on the field thanks to the trash talk earlier in the week.

The real dud however came long before this game. You could even argue it started after week one.

Conner Weigman proved two things in yesterday’s dominating win, his skill and his haters wrong.

There was plenty of overreaction in Texas A&M’s loss against Notre Dame. Was criticism warranted? Absolutely. The offense could not move the football.

Things have changed a lot since then. It’s not just A&M dominating against the teams they’re supposed to win against. Bowling Green was a tough game. Harold Fannin Jr. will be an NFL tight end one day.

There was too much slander against Weigman. Those haters paid the price yesterday.

Coach Mike Elko touched on it during yesterday’s presser and didn’t hold back about any personal attacks that have been made against Weigman.

“You can challenge Conner for how he plays, and you can be upset with Conner for how he throws the football. Some of the stuff that has been said about this kid and written about this kid… is embarrassing. Absolutely embarrassing, the stuff that gets out there on this kid.”

Weigman was on target for most of his passes. His leadership made this team look very confident.

The victory led to many sports analysts talking about A&M and the College Football Playoff in the same sentence.

This was because of a great team effort. The A&M defensive pressure on Brady Cook was outstanding.

10 different receivers caught a pass for the Aggies. That was with Weigman.

The criticism about the game is fair. Once it gets personal, it’s no longer about the game. Weigman coming back helped the team as a whole. The passing game downfield looked efficient. Because of him, people are talking about playoffs and the Aggies in the same sentence.

Missouri’s sex offenders no longer must place “no candy” warning signs outside their homes on Halloween, a federal judge ruled, arguing that part of the state’s law is unconstitutional.

A state law enacted in 2008 prohibited registered sex offenders from going outside to interact with children and from having outside lights on, and they are required to post a sign warning that “no candy or treats” are offered at the home on Halloween night, according to Fox 2.

But US District Judge John Ross on Wednesday ruled that the sign requirement portion of the law will no longer be enforced, starting this Halloween.

Ross said officials were permanently enjoined statewide from enforcing the sign requirement.

The ruling comes after Hazelwood, Missouri, resident Thomas Sanderson filed a lawsuit last year arguing that the sign requirement violated his First Amendment rights to free speech, claiming the statute forced him to make a statement he did not agree with.

Police arrested Sanderson shortly after Halloween in 2022, accusing him of setting up a large Halloween display and handing out candy to children.

Sanderson is on the Missouri State Highway Patrol’s sex offender registry list as a Tier Level II offender. He has been included on the state’s sex offender registry list since 2006, and a Tier Level II designation means he is required to complete a 25-year registration requirement.

Before 2022, the lawsuit says, authorities told Sanderson on two separate occasions — in 2008 and 2012 — that the statute did not apply to him because his conviction came before the requirement went into effect in 2008.

Sanderson has held Halloween festivities every year since 2008 and was never issued a written or verbal notice that the statute applied to him, according to the original petition.

Sanderson pleaded guilty in April 2023 to one charge of failure to comply with Halloween-related restrictions for sex offenders, court records show.

While Ross’ ruling on Wednesday means registered sex offenders in Missouri are no longer required to post a warning sign on Halloween, they still must follow the other provisions in the statute that require them to stay inside and keep outside lights turned off.

The Texas A&M Aggies put the college football world on notice yesterday afternoon, not just beating the then-No. 9 Missouri Tigers, but straight up blew them out, 41-10.

Conner Weigman looked like his 2023 self, before his injury, throwing for 276 yards and nearly a perfect day passing-wise, completing 18 of 22 passes with no touchdowns and also no interceptions.

Weigman was impressive, and Nic Scourton was as much of a game-changer as he’s been since coming to A&M, but the real MVP of the game might have been junior running back Le’Veon Moss, who ran wild against Missouri, setting a new career-high with 138 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 12 carries, including a 75-yard touchdown on the first play of the second half for Texas A&M.

Repeating himself from last week’s 100+ yard performance against Arkansas, Le’Veon claimed he just went out and “balled.”

“I mean, to take you through it, I was just playing ball. Sorry to say that again, but I was just ballin’,” Moss said. “We just wanted to come out and continue to put our foot on their neck.

As excited as the team was to have Conner Weigman back under center, the team scored the entirety of their touchdowns on the ground, something Moss chalked up to pure skills.

“No, that was just ability. I mean, we were not expecting all the touchdowns to be off runs, but you know,” Moss said. “I didn’t really think that it was going to be a rough day I just thought we needed to tighten up and get our heads on the right way.”

Moss and the now No. 15 Texas A&M Aggies get a much-deserved bye week coming up, before getting back to business on October 19 against the Mississippi State Bulldogs.
