Any reason to why the Aggies aren't getting more hype?
Offense: Sumlin has never had an issue putting up points (except last year Bama haha). Kyle Allen returns after half a year of starting, Seals Jones, Jefferson, Noil are all back and can all make plays over the top or in space.
Defense: Chavis has been one of the most consistent DC in the country. Long tenure at Tennessee while they were in the best era as a program. Continued success at LSU after Pelini bolted for Nebraska and co-coordinators failed. Tons of talent on the defensive line, and returning starters in the secondary.
I think they will drop two games to Western Conference foes and they get a favorable draw with South Carolina and Vanderbilt. Just not sure why Arkansas and Tennessee are getting more hype than the Aggies.

How much do Aggies pay ESPN under the table?

Appearently they haven't given anyone a reason to hype them since Manziel left.But they will always have that though.

Arkansas is a sleeping giant. Winlessee is a sleeping bitch.

You can't ask serious questions like that on this board and expect anything but a bunch of down votes and subsequent yapping.
I don't have the answer to your question, apart from the speculation that hype is largely media-driven, and we don't have any sexy story lines this year onto which the media can glom.
I guarantee you the team isn't giving it a second (or first) thought.
Win games, the hype will follow.

If people say LSU can't have good QB play because of the past then A&M can't have a good defense. Their OL sucks as well and they play in the SEC West. They deserve as much hype as Arkansas. A&M is finishing 5th in the West ahead of only Arkansas and Miss St.

Why when someone asks about A&M the Aggie fans come in and muck it up by saying no one will take it seriously? How about you back off instead of sabotaging a legitimate thread.

First time since Sumlin arrived there are no freshman starters on defense and no walk ons in the 2 deep.

They upgraded on D with Chavy and absolutely downgraded with that lame nutcase Christenson on the O

Obviously we have not tooted our own horns sufficiently.
Prepare for a last-week barrage on these boards to rectify this matter.
