Freshman quarterback shines in first college start with 338 yards and four touchdowns.
Texas A&M quarterback Conner Weigman throws passes during warmups of an NCAA college football game against Mississippi on Saturday, Oct. 29, 2022, in College Station, Texas. COLLEGE STATION — Freshman Conner Weigman turned in the top performance of any Texas A&M quarterback this season, in his first college start. Prompting the question: what took so long?
Weigman, a five-star prospect in the class of 2022 out of Bridgeland High School, was 28-of-44 for 338 yards and four touchdown passes in the Aggies’ 31-28 home loss last Saturday to Mississippi, which moved up four spots in the Associated Press to No. 11 following the victory. “The guy has got heart, toughness and charisma,” Fisher said of Weigman, who’s also a standout baseball player. “He’s got it all.”
Johnson, a transfer from LSU, started the next three games before breaking his throwing hand late in a 42-24 loss at Mississippi State. Fisher then turned back to King for starts against Alabama and South Carolina, both narrow losses on the road. King hurt his shoulder late in the 30-24 loss to the Gamecocks on Oct. 22, and the Weigman era cranked up at A&M because of an injury to a more experienced quarterback.
