Texas A&M Aggies quarterback Conner Weigman called his shot against the Texas Longhorns on Tuesday... kinda.
Given the amount of time its been since the last matchup, one would think that the level of hatred between the two schools would have dwindled to a degree.On Tuesday, that rivalry took another step forward, with Texas A&M quarterback Conner Weigman calling his shot, and predicting a win over the Longhorns.

Mandatory Credit: Maria Lysaker-USA TODAY Sports / Maria Lysaker-USA TODAY SportsNow, it should obviously be noted that Weigman is speaking in generalities here. He is not necessarily guaranteeing a win on November 30 at Kyle Field.
What he is doing, is expressing his desire and excitement to play against the Longhorns, and his motivation to beat a team that he grew up rooting against his entire life.On the other side of that coin, Longhorns QB Quinn Ewers grew up a Longhorns fan. As such, he is extremely motivated to beat the Aggies himself, and is extremely excited to get to take part in first edition of the rivalry since 2011.
"I think I was eight ," Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers said. "But hearing stories from my family and my dad, my dad actually said he believed growing up that the Texas A&M game was bigger than the Red Rivalry game. I'm excited to have that game back and it's going to be cool, especially going to Kyle Field Thanksgiving weekend and that place is going to be rockin'.Matt Galatzan is the Publisher of LonghornsCountry.com, AllAggies.
