Heading into the 2022 college football season, Texas A&M were considered one of the better teams in the country. They've looked the part, scoring big wins against Miami and Arkansas. For every win, though, there was at least one confusing loss to a team they were favored to beat. This week, that loss came against Mississippi State.
The Texas A&M football squad was embarrassed by the Mississippi State. The Bulldogs clobbered the young Aggies squad, hanging 42 points on them while limiting the offense to just 24 points. Despite this ugly loss, Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher remained optimistic about his team and the improvements they've made. (via 247Sports)
