Twitter shocked as Texas A&M crushes LSU’s CFP hopes
The Texas A&M Aggies have been one of the most disappointing teams in the country this season. Head coach Jimbo Fisher and Texas A&M secured the top-ranked recruiting class in the country and returned a decent amount talent, but the Aggies were 4-7 entering the final week of the regular season.
However, Texas A&M gained its best win of the season in rivalry week against the LSU Tigers. LSU, which entered 9-2 and in the thick of the College Football Playoff race, fell, 38-23, on the road at Texas A&M. Now, the Tigers are no longer in the playoff mix, but still have a chance to win the SEC.
The Georgia Bulldogs play the LSU Tigers in the 2022 SEC championship game at 4 p.m. EDT on Dec. 3.
Here’s how Twitter reacted to Texas A&M’s upset win over the LSU Tigers:

Fans, media stunned after LSU's defeat
A&M losing 6 straight, going 5-7, then stunting on LSU at the end of the season is THE MOST Aggie football thing ever.

With the SEC West as down as it is this season, Alabama should be deeply ashamed it lost twice.

Who to cheer for?
Georgia fans were unsure if they wanted LSU to win or lose.
I am completely conflicted with LSU. Do I want them to take an embarrassing L tonight? Or do I want them to have Playoff hopes next week in Atlanta.
I seriously don’t know… #SEC #GoDawgs

Why does Texas A&M not simply play football well all the time instead of only against the biggest opponents on their schedule and no one else
