re: Way too early 2013 top 5...

Does A&M lose their two best OL and best DL? If so, they're rated way too high.

Matthews is staying so we'll return at least three O-line starters and the two new guys will be Mike Matthews, #1 center in the country coming out of HS, and one of two national top 100 guys.

Additionally, we have the easiest schedule in the league next four. Four creamouff OOC games, all at home, and Vandy and Mizzu from the East. We get Bama at home, Arky early before their new staff will have time to really get things settled in and two evenly spaced bye weeks. We have 8 total home games.

A&M will be a double-digit favorite in 10 of 12 games next year and that is only somewhat becuse of our ability. Our schedule is set up for ten wins without us beating a single "quality" team. Maybe Ole Miss becaus they return everyone, but they needed six turnovers just to keep it close this year.
