What Texas A&M’s Mike Elko keeps doubling down on amid perfect start

The Texas A&M Aggies are enjoying their best season in decades, with an 8-0 record and a No. 3 national ranking. They just demolished the LSU Tigers 49-25 in Baton Rouge, marking Texas A&M’s first win at Tiger Stadium since 1994. But head coach Mike Elko isn’t interested in dwelling on history or past struggles. After the LSU victory, Elko delivered a blunt message about the constant references to last season. “I keep saying this: It’s not about the past. We’ve got to stop worrying about the past, thinking about the past, talking about the past. I’m excited for what this team is doing right now,” he said, as reported by Chris Low of On3. The second-year coach revealed he fielded three questions about last season during a Wednesday media call, which clearly frustrated him. His team collapsed down the stretch in 2024, losing four of their final five games after a promising 7-1 start. “This team is doing some really special things. I think we should enjoy it. I think we should stop focusing on last year. I don’t understand why we can’t just enjoy what’s happening. We should enjoy what’s happening on an 8-0 football team,” he said. Elko’s message carries real weight given what the Aggies have accomplished. They’re sitting at 5-0 in SEC play with full control of their playoff destiny. Quarterback Marcel Reed has emerged as a legitimate Heisman contender, accounting for four touchdowns in the beatdown alone. The program’s victory in Baton Rouge felt particularly satisfying. Texas A&M trailed 18-14 at halftime before exploding for 35 second-half points. The defense was relentless all night, racking up five sacks while limiting the Tigers to just 278 yards of offense. This marks the first time Texas A&M has started 8-0 since 1992. Road games against the Missouri Tigers and Texas Longhorns loom in November, but Elko refuses to look ahead or dwell on what happened last year. The transformation under his leadership has been remarkable. Texas A&M spent millions replacing former head coach Jimbo Fisher, and Elko’s no-nonsense approach is delivering results. The Aggies are now chasing their first College Football Playoff appearance with legitimate momentum behind them.

Britain faces cold snap after weekend snow warning

The UK is set for more cold weather and a sprinkling of snow after cold Arctic air brought wintry conditions over the weekend. Temperatures have dipped into single digits thanks to a “cold northerly airflow this weekend” after Saturday and Sunday were predicted to be the “coldest pair of days so far this season”. While Sunday morning got off to a chilly yet sunny start across central and eastern parts of the UK, clouds over Northern Ireland and Scotland are set to bring outbreaks of rain moving southeastward throughout the day, with some colder air moving across Scottish mountains, with the chance of a little snow. Greg Dewhurst, a Met Office meteorologist, said: “We’ve had a cold northerly airflow across us so far this weekend, but all eyes to the northwest as this next weather system brings cloud and rain in from the northwest and sweeps it southeast across the country over the next 24 hours. “It remains blustery into the beginning of next week, but signs of a bit more Atlantic weather coming in, allowing temperatures to rise a little further as the week goes on. He continued: “But this morning a chilly start, particularly where we’ve got the sunny skies across central and eastern parts, but it quickly clouds over across Northern Ireland and Scotland, with outbreaks of rain moving in here and pushing slowly southeastward through the day. “The rain could bump into some colder air across the Scottish mountains to give a little snow here, not unusual for the time of year, and the rain by the afternoon reaching the higher ground of Wales and the southwest of England, the southeast of England, generally staying cloudy, but perhaps thick enough by the end of the afternoon for some light and patchy rain developing here. Temperatures are set to remain similar to Saturday’s, which ranged from eight to 12C, with cloud and wind coming in from the northwest as it gets colder into the evening. The latest forecast comes after Storm Benjamin battered the UK this week with heavy downpours and winds over 70mph. Four yellow weather warnings were issued by the Met Office for Thursday, while over 40 flood alerts were in place in the morning. A mainly dry, chilly but bright start with a few showers in the west. However cloud and rain will gradually move in from the northwest, pushing into eastern areas by the afternoon. Feeling cold once again and staying breezy. Outbreaks of rain clearing followed by clear spells and scattered showers, with further bands of rain in the south. Milder than previous nights, but still windy and cold in Scotland. Sunny spells and a scattering of showers to start. These easing with sunny spells through the afternoon, but cloud increasing in the west with rain arriving by the evening. Breezy. Tuesday to Thursday: Remaining changeable with some further rain or showers at times, especially in the northwest. Always driest and brightest towards the southeast. Temperatures recovering to near average for most.
