Texas A&M Aggies vs. Florida: Gators’ Offensive Players to Watch
When the Texas A&M Aggies take the field for Week 3 — their first road game — they’ll be put to the test.
In a perfect world, they’ll be fresh off of a second straight win to begin the season, having knocked off Notre Dame and taken care of business against McNeese State. Standing in front of them and a 3-0 record, however, will be the Florida Gators.
Coach Billy Napier and company had their share of struggles last season, just like the Aggies, so both teams will enter the 2024-25 season looking to make things right. The College Football Playoff is set to expand to 12 teams as well, so the chances of that happening are increased, though winning games on the road, or in Florida’s case, defending home turf are crucial to that effort.
The Aggies will be returning some strong names on defense and adding new ones, but when they take the field, they’ll be tasked with slowing down some of Florida’s best weapons. For the Aggies playing in “The Swamp,” the difference could very well come on that defensive front.
That being said, here are three names to watch from Florida ahead of Week 3.
Graham Mertz, Quarterback
Mertz will be entering his fifth year of college football next season, and second with the Gators. Last year, he put up nearly 3,000 yards at a 73 percent completion rate. By the end of the year, he’d tallied 20 touchdowns and threw just three interceptions — an SEC best. Mertz’s high completion percentage certainly spells trouble for the Aggies if he finds his groove, and with a full year and offseason to adjust, he’s likely to come out of the gate firing.
Montrell Johnson, Running Back
With the passing-heavy offense that Florida had a season ago, Johnson wasn’t who it relied on most of the time, but that didn’t make him any less of an offensive weapon. Last year, the junior tallied 817 yards on 152 carries for five touchdowns, which puts him in the top-10 among SEC rushers on the season. Johnson is quick and nimble, making him a backfield threat, but also a solid option for Mertz, as the running back finished second in the conference for receiving yards as a primary rusher. If he gets loose, the Aggies will certainly like to be in front of him rather than behind.
Eugene Wilson III, Wide Reciever
After losing Ricky Pearsall Jr. to the draft, the Gators will have to look elsewhere for the bulk of their receiving offense. Luckily for them, they have a strong replacement candidate in Wilson III, who is entering his second season with the team as a true sophomore. Last season, Wilson III tallied 538 yards on 61 receptions for six touchdowns, making him a standout, but not the No. 1 option. This year, that’s set to change, and with a full season under his belt, Florida might just be seeing their next breakout receiver if things go according to plan. That makes him a big player of interest for the Aggies.

Texas Man Finds Hidden GPS Tracker in His New Truck: “They Didn’t Want Me To Find This”
A man in Texas, suspicious about his newly acquired truck, decided to take a look inside. To his surprise, he found a GPS tracker that was monitoring his every move. As expected, people online reacted as they normally do: a collective meltdown.
The man in question is none other than David Allen, also known as ToTouchAnEmu. He is a very popular content creator who has over 9.8 million followers on TikTok alone.
And while he shares a wide variety of content, one of his latest videos addresses this apparent breach of privacy. He detailed how he was surprised and overwhelmed as he went through the terms and conditions after purchasing his new truck.

His dealer had signed him up and paid for a one-year subscription to CarRx, a platform and mobile app that monitors vehicles’ data. David, however, was not too thrilled to find out exactly what that meant.
Tracking Everything
For starters, he showed that, under the terms and conditions, CarRx would sell all collected information to third parties. David was not too worried about that.
Instead, he showed all the data that the platform collects from vehicles. Understandably, he was shocked.
Monitored information includes the car’s VIN, mileage, oil and battery status, fuel, and charging history. The platform can also track a vehicle’s location, speed, crash detection alerts, braking events, and even camera image and sensor data.
Finding the Tracker
David, still astounded by the revelation, knew that something was fishy. He asked, “I start thinking, how do they know all that information about my car if they don’t have some sort of GPS tracker on it?”

And to no one’s surprise, and thanks to a Google search, it turns out that there was, in fact, a tracker installed in David’s truck. And not willing to let it slide, the man got to work immediately.
The Texas man searched for the tracker near the OBD port. He noticed a Y-cable right below it and found the tracker connected to it. The tracker had an IMEI, meaning that it had a SIM card in it, so tracking is pretty much a guarantee.
Viewers React Accordingly
Of course, David’s video caused a multitude of reactions. Some took issue with how he labeled his SUV a truck, but most viewers were worried about their privacy.
“We need data privacy laws stat!” one said. Another one commented, “This isn’t new, unfortunately. I used to work for GM; they track everything. In real time.”

The latter comment seemed to echo the majority of reactions. Other users, former car dealership employees themselves, said the exact same thing.
