The Texas A&M Aggies are gearing up for a tough Week 1 matchup against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
College GameDay is in town for the matchup, and the Aggies would love to get a win on the national stage to start their season. Ahead of the matchup, the team received a visit from Oz Pearlman, also known as Oz The Mentalist.
The mentalist and magician visited the Aggies to show them some of his mindblowing tricks. It’s safe to say that the team was impressed by Pearlman.

To start, Pearlman wanted defensive players for his demonstration. The magician picked edge rusher Nic Scourton, and Scourton volunteered Cashius Howell to also be a part of the demonstration.
The 2 defenders came to the front and were instructed to put their hands on top of each other. Pearlman instructed Scourton to think of a word to describe the 2024 season and then say it out loud. Scourted shouted “Legendary,” and Howell revealed his hand to have that exact word written in Sharpie.
The Aggies were mindblown, with several players expressing disbelief.
Next, Conner Weigman was brought to the front. The QB was told to imagine a card in his mind. Pearlman then asked Weigman what the card was, and Weigman said queen of spades. Sure enough, that very card was in Weigman’s shoe. Nobody could believe their eyes.
This was definitely a fun and interesting experience for the Aggies before their matchup with the Fighting Irish.
