But I cannot see them being competitive anytime soon.
Honest question. A&M is ranked higher in the preseason than every school in the SEC not named Bama or LSU. Do you not agree with that? Where would you slot us this year?

It's a pretty classic example of a ranking based on where people think that a team will end up, rather than on the actual quality of the team.
A&M will rack up a really solid season. Maybe even 10 regular season wins-- but it won't make them definitively better than a Mississippi State team that could finish with 8 wins and still be one of the 15 best teams in the nation, with the losses coming to even better teams.
If you ranked according to quality, I suspect A&M would be the 4th best team in the SEC-W, and 4th or 5th in the SEC this year, contingent upon unforeseeable injuries or events that could move a team up or down a couple of slots.
