Consider the ages of females in Virginia you know with these names.

Texas A&M’s 2024 season will be heavily scrutinized if the Aggies come out of the gates looking predictable on offense, shaky on the offensive line, and weak in the secondary, as the two primary areas of weakness last season should be fixed, or at least improve under the new head coach Mike Elko and his experienced coaching staff.
Even more so, quarterback Conner Weigman is back after missing the final eight games of the 2023 season. After two fall practices, the redshirt sophomore looks bigger and even more confident, while his arm strength, accuracy, and touch remain top-notch.

Whether on the basketball court, the gridiron, or the parking lot of a honky tonk in Mason, Texas Tech versus Texas A&M used to be the best rivalry in college sports that most people knew nothing about. The Aggies' flight to the SEC temporarily put paid to this old grudge match, but thanks to Tech hoops boss Grant McCasland, and A&M basketball foreman Buzz Williams, this old rivalry is flickering back into life.

Going into the 2024 college football season, the Texas Longhorns are widely regarded as one of the top teams in the entire country.

Fortunately, Texas found a ton of success in the transfer portal adding three big-time receivers Isaiah Bond, Silas Bolden, Matthew Golden, and tight end Amari Niblack.

Gov. Ron DeSantis has issued a state of emergency in Northeast Florida and across much of the state as a tropical system appears almost certain to develop. The National Hurricane Center said Friday morning that a tropical wave has a 90% chance of developing into at least a tropical depression over the next seven days. Most models show it moving into the Gulf of Mexico and then coming ashore and crossing the state, possibly moving over Northeast Florida.
