well TAMU is a victim of a really tough schedule

let's say that we're ranking teams objectively (1 is better than 2, who is better than 3, etc)

if TAMU lost to better teams, then why should they be punished? TAMU is a funny little outlier that makes the conversation interesting

there isn't a lot of shame in losing to OU, OSU, Texas, KSU, and Arky this year (they do have 1 bad loss elsewhere)

Missouri went 8-5 (5-4) last year in the Big 12. Now they are 5-7 (2-6).



And got arse raped by A&M this year after beating them consistently in the Big XII.

A&M and a completely different team than in the past.

Let's discuss it.

Texas A&M vs Mizzou under Sherman 0-3, getting blown out in two of those losses. A&M vs Mizzou under Sumlin, win by 30.

They are a different team now than they were in the Big-12. Bottom line.

They really were in every game they played against good competition pretty much. They were just the most unclutch team in college football.

Huge upgrades with coaching and a Heisman QB and voila, you have a good team.

At least they grabbed Washington, a decent AQ team.

Of course not.

If they did, he wouldnt have been a 3 star recruit coming out of high school and Auburn would have slid $200k to his dad

This is a convient crawfish for SEC fans

Now they've got a huge upgrade at head coach and a Heisman QB. That being the case, they'll still finish third in the West and beat whoever they get in a bowl.

I really don't see how they "exposed the SEC".


SEC fans routinely say what would Team X's record be in the SEC. Well, now we have a good idea. I guarantee you if A&M was 12-0 with JFF in the Big 12 SEC fans would be saying they'd be 3 loss team in the SEC and would have no shot vs Bama.

Still finished 3rd in West....but it IS amazing what a good coach and great QB can bring to a decent team.

Not to mention some NFL bookend tackles

Yeah if bobby P wouldn't have gotten in that wreck A&M probably finished 4th in the west and this thread is an "I told you so thread"

It's amazing how so many people watch football with blinders on
