That's a legit order, although Auburn/ Lsu are interchangeable.

No. ATM realistically is no better than Ole Miss, Mississippi State, and even Arkansas. The four of them are all interchangeable.

False. LSU has two championships this century while the Barn only has one. LSU also looks to be on the upswing currently and Auburn/Gus are currently treading water.

You're right but I think Arky is clearly last. I'm only putting A&M at 4th because I'm giving the 75 million dollar man some benefit of the doubt. I also think A&M has recruited some better players than State or Ole Miss.

Definitely. To me, Bama is head and shoulders above everyone because of the recent dominance, then LSU and Auburn are very close, then a significant drop off.

Not sure ... it changes, I guess.
I do know it’s best to be underestimated; it gives you an advantage.
I just enjoy watching all y’all talk/argue about it.

A&M doesnt have to pretend, you're basically Ole Miss/Mississippi State, there's really no significant on field difference besides the fact that you pay your coach more.

Ags have a very easy schedule these next two years. IF they can beat Ole Miss and State, they could finish 9-3 both years.

Until this year, A&M and LSU’s records were very similar.
But I appreciate your comment; y’all rarely disappoint in that department.

LSU has had 10 win seasons ten times since 2000. They have also either been in a NY6 Bowl or championship game in each of those ten seasons. A&M has only had one 10 win season in that period.
This season wasnt figured in with that.
I appreciate your "opinion".
Try again if you like.

So up until this year, A&M was among the winningest programs in the SEC (LSU is the winningest) over the last twenty years? Hmm... Could have fooled me.

Forget the SEC, LSU's win percentage is like top 5 in the country during that time period.

Ok. We'll all say Aggies finish last and we can end this thread. Then you can underestimate from there. All in favor?

I think the west will be a combo of Alabama, LSU, and Auburn for the foreseeable future.

ATM sneaks in every couple years for 2nd/3rd. They aren't a bad team by any means but they're in arguably the toughest division in CFB.
