Texas A&M will keep Marcel Reed at quarterback after its 35-6 loss to LSU. Coach Mike Elko confirmed the decision when asked if Reed could be benched, answering, "No." TexAgs posted the exchange on X, and Yahoo Sports reported it.

Reed went 10-for-26 against LSU, producing 106 passing yards and one interception. His 38.4% completion mark was reported as a possible career low. The Aggies entered the game ranked No. 23, while LSU was No. 10.
