One of the biggest moves of the year for Texas A&M came ahead of the South Carolina game. Elko opted to name Marcel Reed the starting quarterback for the remainder of the season, moving Conner Weigman into a backup role. However, Texas A&M will be down an important piece the rest of the way as Le’Veon Moss suffered a season-ending injury against South Carolina.
As Elko looked back on the loss, he cited the trenches as the difference-maker. He also said the Aggies had to turn the page and never look the way they did against the Gamecocks ever again.
“Hats off to South Carolina,” Elko said. “They beat us. Beat us on the line of scrimmage, both sides of the ball. Controlled the game. Forced turnovers. Couldn’t run the ball, couldn’t tackle, couldn’t control the quarterback. So, we didn’t do any of the things you need to do to win a football game. That’s why we lost. So, we’ve got to get better. We’ve got to fix them and we’ve got to not ever play like that again.”
