How? Texas a&m started preseason No. 6 in each of the last two seasons and finished unranked in each of the last two seasons.

Meanwhile, Texas finished ahead of their preseason standing last season...?

Some of y'all clearly let the media do the thinking for you

Texas has MASSIVE advantages over everyone in the Big 12 (except for OU). Yet y'all haven't won it since 2009.
Additionally, A&M has won more games than y'all since joining the SEC and playing a tougher schedule.

Sounds like there are some
Idiot sports guys who thought A&M should have been ranked #6 last year. Anyone with a functioning brain knew they shouldn’t have been ranked that high.

Y’all certainly have the arrogance


ESPN is stating that’s where we should be. The only arrogance on this thread is coming from you.

A$M might have something this year. I know, I know. But they might.

Why does A&M “deserve” more? Do they deserve more than Arkansas, Vandy, SC, etc? Their players all sweat and work hard too. And I haven’t seen any evidence that they bought a top recruiting class or participate in homoerotic routines on the field or in the stands. Why do the Aggies deserve more? You just offered a prime example of A&M arrogance. “We are SO rich! We can buy what ever we want.” “We DESERVE it.” Funny thing. I saw that debt load y’all are carrying and if y’all were as rich as y’all pretend to be you wouldn’t be in such deep debt. A&M is living way beyond their means while acting like they are the richest kids on the block. They don’t deserve anything. Success is earned - not bought. And certainly not bought on credit.

We deserve more from Fisher. We are paying him to win 10 games a year, and he isn’t delivering. It’s simple - he is a terrible investment.

Ya'll need a fresh start and retool. The money is there. The recruiting is mostly there. Just missing a HC that can produce.

They couldn’t win it all with Bear Bryant. It’s the culture

You pay a coach to win championships.

Ok. Let’s get to the real meat of this thread. How did Ping Pong post this before Sidewalk Tiger did?? My man is slipping.

I’d settle for consistent 10 win seasons. Then at least you have a shot at championships. Otherwise, you don’t really belong in the discussion

Cool. You have to be well thought of to continuously be picked to do great things even though you fail to achieve it.

I dont see crappy programs being picked for #1.

I’ll take it- iur time is coming.

Yes - Texas has had a string of very bad hires and is in their worst period of football literally ever. That's not going to last forever.

They have? A&M has had a weaker schedule than Texas each of the last two seasons and has built much of that record advantage by playing 12 FCS teams since joining the SEC (Texas has played 0)

It's best to not post if you have no idea what you're talking about...
