14th-ranked Texas A&M (6-1 4-0 SEC) is still atop the SEC standings after defeating Mississippi State 34-24 on Saturday afternoon. Head coach Mike Elko and his team are now 3-0 on the road in SEC play. They are set to return to Kyle Field for the season’s biggest game against 8th-ranked LSU.

One of the main storylines coming out of the win was the play of starting quarterback Conner Weigman, who struggled in the pocket due to bad footwork and mental mistakes. At the same time, the raucous environment caused by the ringing cowbells, a Mississippi State tradition, surely disrupted his timing on several throws that led to two interceptions.

On Monday, Elko, along with several players, including linebacker Scooby Williams, took questions from the media ahead of the game. The Tigers are also 6-1 and undefeated in conference play after defeating Arkansas 34-10 on Saturday night, making this the game to watch in Week 9.

Here is everything Dametreous Crownover Bryce Anderson, and Scooby Williams had to say on Monday afternoon ahead of the game.
