Suppose A&M hadn't left the Big 12

As it is, A&M is 10-2 in the toughest conference in the nation. Leading the SEC in most offensive categories with one of the most electric players in the game. They had losses of 3 points to the current #4 team and 5 points to the #7 team.
The conference they left behind had 8 teams that allowed 52 points or more at least once. With their offense and the lack of quality teams (or defenses) in the Big 12, A&M likely goes undefeated and goes to Miami and gets to play a Bama team that they did beat this year.
oops. Sorry Ags.

They'd have lost to some other mediocre team like LSU and Flarda.

Not so fast...
Ags offense was balanced and we scored a lot last year. JFF has been great but we had a pretty prolific offense last year as well.
Ags defense against the run is pretty good, not great. We were good against the run last year also.
Ags secondary is our weakness on defense. We were absolutely horrible against pass last year.. Ark can attest to this. Secondary is much improved but still a weakness.
SEC teams we played this year just had wrong kind of passing attacks to take advantage of it. Best passing attack we faced was La Tech and the score speaks for itself.
Ags would not have gone undefeated in the Big 12 in my opinion. Probably 1 or 2 losses and in the hunt for the title.
Ags of 2011 is very similar to 2012 except last year we had an NFL type QB minus the scrambling ability of JFF and a much more conservative head coach. We also had a kicking game. We had more of a power running game last year and we would have won 5 or 6 SEC games last year also.

They'd be in the BCS title game.
That's pretty Aggie thing, move conferences and miss out on your first BCS title game.

OU and OSU would have torn the Aggies a new one, and they likely would have found a way to lose to Texas.
A&M rose to the challenge, have to respect that. But the Big 12 wouldn't have been a cakewalk for them.
