Texas A&M WILL LOSE TO 4 Top-10 teams - (Clemson, Alabama, Georgia, and LSU)


FIFY

I actually bet they don't. They may lose 4 games, but they'll pick off a good team. Hopefully Bama!

Texas is not a Top 10 team. They lose to both LSU and Oklahoma this year.

Auburn plays 4 also in Bama, UGA, Florida and LSU. Plus you throw in Oregon and A&M, there’s no way the Gus bus makes it through this season.

It'll be nice to beat Florida and Texas if they are ranked that high, but I seriously doubt either is a top ten team. Maybe Florida.

I think we play Florida or Georgia twice this year, don’t we?

Saban brought up a good point when he was asked about how everyone criticizes their strength of schedule and that they definitely try to play other teams and they just don't want to play them. That's why some agree to play at neutral sites. Getting skull drug your first game of the season is not a way you want to start. Alabama has a rivalry with Tennessee that they play every year, it's just Tennessee hasnt been very good in the last decade. Between 1995-2006, Tennessee was consistently ranked in the top 10 and won 10/12 matchups with them. LSU just happens to have an SEC-east rival in the top ten. I can imagine Alabama at least tried to play one more top 10/15 opponent to take Duke, New Mexico State, or Western Carolina's spot instead of having to pay those teams to play.

They don’t schedule good teams because they’ll get in the playoffs with 1 loss regardless. Saban is full of chit.

I don't know who used the word "easiest," but a lot lines up for LSU to do well this season. Having more ranked opponents means having more opportunities to prove yourself.

I don't know why you're looking for more and more excuses as we approach the season.

That doesn't make sense. The rankings don't penalize teams for having a hard schedule

If they only lose to Oklahoma and LSU they will finish with a New Year's six bowl and in the top ten.
