I think they’re as good as anybody not named Ohio State. The back end of the defense is a little weak but they cover it pretty well with the pass rush. Their offense is good as any when they’re rolling. They sometimes seem to take a couple drives off.

Stupid stat . Try doing top 15 and everything changes . A&M has not played anyone in the top half of the sec until Texas who will barely meet the cut

The problem with Bama fans is they want to pretend the Florida St and ND games never happened.

Reality is the committee looks at all games, not just conference games.

I didn’t do the work, it was tweeted by Chris Fallica and seemed relevant to this conversation….sorry if it doesn’t fit your narrative.

Yes. Very. They have the gayest tradions in CFB without any doubt(even Stanford and Cal are like wtf), but they are a very good team.

First half A&M - top 50 team

Second Half A&M - top 3 team

So you do the math

Yes, If only we had lost some of our conference games and given our opponents a better record.


See, more idiocy from A&M fans. It’s as if they don’t teach logic in college station and only teach adult males to say “yes sir” as they do more push-ups or weird cultish things.

This argument has already been debunked 3x using just this year’s 1 loss SEC teams.

No, we really don’t. If we lose to AU, we’re out of the playoffs…and should be out.

They were held to 76 yards. That wasn't a crash...that was enforcing will.

Why is LSU jumping in front of Texas to start shite with Aggie?

You guys have already played. It was hilarious. I have never in my 62 year-old life seen a team (Aggie) go into another team's house (LSU) and leave nothing but such utter and complete wreckage.

To the point the damn governor jumps in and commences to fire everyone in sight. What a shite show!

I am no Aggie fan, but name any other instance in CFB history where a team came to town and literally broke the other team, athletically, institutionally, and otherwise.

If I were broke dick LSU, I would sit quiet for a good long spell. Like maybe till August.

I guess the easiest way to phrase my OP would be to ask where you place the Ags in terms of betting futures. I don’t have the money to gamble frivolously, just strictly from an analytical standpoint. Some people gave some solid responses.


The honest answer is this team absolutely has the ability to win it all but they have to clean up their play. It's amazing they have been able to overcome mistakes and rough patches so consistently. They do seem to get up for opponents though and play with a lot of physicality and emotion. At the same time they seem to brush off errors as well as any team I have seen. I was at the ND game and after we had the blocked punt and ND seemed to have all the momentum seeing them just come out and punch them right back in the mouth was very different from prior teams. Then at the end they get the KO Return that should have given them the lead called back and just drive it down the field to win anyway. They seem to just have that swagger.

The weirdest thing to me is they are clearly extremely well coached yet they make those mistakes. The communication level on the O and D is just incredible. They are extremely difficult to scheme against because they disguise everything and they attack from everywhere on both sides of the ball. Then at the core they have some monsters on both sides of the line.

Problem is that's also living dangerously, at some point you might write a check you can't cash. I do think they are one of the very few teams that can actually match up to Ohio State and beat them if they bring their A game but that doesn't mean they will get that chance of execute if they do.

To me the 3 teams most likely to win it all are OSU, UGA, and A&M. They are all the most complete teams with the most talent. I think Indiana doesn't have the horses. The next most dangerous team to me is probably Notre Dame, though I know that's likely not a popular opinion here.

For stating facts? Very A&M statement of you.

Bama fans state facts and point out A&M fans continue to make illogical statements. A&M fans say Bama fans are salty.

Fact: You have lost twice.

Fact: A&M has not.

Fact: Saban is gone.

No. We don’t. I think there should be a system where 12 top teams play each other, ultimately eliminating everyone but 1. That’s the winner.

You think the powers that be could come up with something like that to answer your question?

All true facts, that not a single Bama fan denies or disputes. This really isn’t rocket science A&M fans

Fact: A&M has the worst schedule in SEC history

Fact: it is not due to A&M giving each of the teams a single loss

I’m sorry this is so hard or hurtful for A&M fans.

I don’t really care. SOS arguments aren’t that meaningful unless you are a bubble team or trying to get better seeding maybe.

You are a stone’s throw from arguing that Bama is better than A&M because of “quality losses”.

We haven’t lost so we can’t relate.
