Texas will not be a CFP team and it has nothing to do with losing to Ohio State.

Except it has everything to do with losing to Ohio State.

If we had beat Ohio State, we’d be #8.

If we hadn’t played Ohio State and had beat Rice instead, we’d still be #8.

Losing to OSU however keeps us out of the playoffs..

A 10-2 Texas gets in. For sure.

And if my aunt had balls, she’d be my uncle.

Is what it is. Next year is another yearZ

Ags are spamming the only gun they have which is Florida. When they narrowly escaped half of their conference games against the worst teams in said conference. I won’t give yall too much of a hard time because I know the suffering my aggy brothers have endured and continue to endure. We were capable of losing to worst teams than Florida in Week 5, it is what it is.

That’s right, overtime versus Kentucky and Mississippi State makes us a stronger team than Aggie!

The committee only cares about W and L’s allegedly, not the matter in which you got them. Who cares if Notre Dame was bailed out late by an ill advised throw vs 1-9 Boston College just a few weeks ago in a 4Q game? They have 10 wins and only two losses to the SEC boogeyman Aggy and Carson Beck led Miami.

Beating OSU is apparently the same as beating Samford in the committee’s eyes, therefore there is currently no reason whatsoever to play those games, and that sucks.


We played the runner up in last year's title game and won and you played the winner of last years title game and lost. In addition you lost to a weak Florida team. We both played cupcakes.

A&M ended up 11-1, they got it done.

Texas ended up 9-3, they didn't get it done.

We all know the CFP will try every way they can think of to get you into the playoffs.....something that would never happen for most teams out there, if the situation was reversed.

So quit your bitching, it makes you look weak.

Yes, because Notre Dame is comparable to Ohio State. There’s a difference between sounding weak, and actually being weak. Texas is absolutely better than OU, Texas A&M, and Vanderbilt. All teams I’ve enjoyed watching. Especially Vandy.

Yes we got manhandled by all the teams below

But we only lost 3 games, thats got to count for something? We’re Texas!


5-7 Kentucky outgained Texas by 220 yards

5-7 Mississippi State was up by 17 on Texas

4-8 Florida beat Texas and Texas trailed the entirety of the game

Texas went 2-3 on the road, their 2 wins were in OT against sub .500 teams

Texas lost to Georgia by 25 in a must win game

Sorry to burst your bubble old man, but Texas is objectively better than the best A&M team your cataract’d eyes have gazed upon in decades.

If that were the case, Bama would be done, seeing as they lost in blowout fashion to an even worse team. At least Florida played competitively against most of the teams they played. FSU got beat up by ACC competition.

Texas isn’t getting in this year. I accept that, but imo the system is broken. It was broken last year too..

Take Texas out of the equation.

Why in the frick is Miami behind Notre Dame? They both have the same record and Miami beat ND. Do the games not matter?

If A&M had beat Rice instead of Notre Dame, where would A&M be ranked? I think they’d still be at #7.

Where would 11-1 Notre Dame be ranked? Much higher than #9 or #10 or out if they move Miami up..

How about Oklahoma vs Michigan?

Oklahoma would still be #8 if they had beat Tulsa instead of Michigan imo.

Where would Michigan be? They’d be 10-2 and right in the thick of things.. as it is, they’re out of the playoffs..

There is quite literally no advantage to playing these big OOC games for the winning team, and there is huge downside for the losing team.

I don’t know how to fix it, but the current system is broken imo. We should be encouraging these games, not discouraging them.

TX should be in the Florida Timeshare bowl. Best 3 loss team in America.

Hell no dagbabbit!!

My Aggies spent over a decade pretending to be the flagship school of Texas and you let them in the SEC, then they pick up where they left off taking little brother to the woodshed in front of all my new SEC friends who truly feared and respected my Aggies. That’s really embarrassing and all the boys cheering can’t take that pain away.

We need 1 year of not getting our arse beat by our sweetheart BAS.
