Texas A&M (1-1) has an early 20-3 lead on UL Monroe (2-0) through the first half, and there’s a central reason for the early advantage: Conner Weigman.

The sophomore quarterback was absolutely dealing through the first two-quarters of Saturday’s matchup with the Warhawks. All the chatter leading up to gameday was how the Aggies needed to bounce back after last week’s loss to Miami. Suffice it say Weigman heard that loud and clear, and dare I say, took it personally.

Weigman got Texas A&M on the board early with a beautiful touchdown throw to Jahdae Walker to close out the first quarter. Walker, alongside Ainias Smith, proved to be the favorite target for Weigman as Evan Stewart did not dress out for Saturday’s game, likely to preserve him for next week’s matchup with Auburn.

Weigman finished the first half with 19/23 passing, 287 passing yards, one passing touchdown, and one rushing touchdown. His rushing score marked his second of the season and the 10th overall of his early collegiate career. Thanks to Weigman cooking in the pocket, A&M ended the first half with 359 total yards of offense.

Here are the best social media reactions to Weigman’s red-hot first half against UL Monroe.

Not too shabby for playing without your best target
