I guess I'm not sure how losing to Georgia by one score is evidence that A&M is a terrible football team? They seem fine, all of their losses are going to be to like top 15 teams, and all but Auburn will probably be teams in the playoff or NY6. They had an insane schedule between the SEC west, a crossover game with UGA, and the Clemson game. They're gonna beat the dogshit out of some poor Big Ten team in the gator bowl or whatever

There are probably twenty or so teams better than A&M in most reasonably fair metrics. They're definitely a pretty good team, just not a championship contender.

LSU and Alabama have a stranglehold on the West and they're already paying top dollar for their coach. There's not even a potential win against Texas to keep the boosters happy. How much longer can people at A&M be happy with fighting with Auburn for third place

LSU seemed a lot closer to A&M than to Bama not 12 months ago, and look at them now.

The concern trolling about “A&M would be better off back in the Big 12” would carry a lot more water if we were winning 9-10 games per year when we actually were in the Big 12. It’s not like we were top poo poo there and fell to middle of the pack in the SEC.

We dropped 2 touchdown passes. I know that at the end the score is the score but I think if IGA played to their actual potential as opposed to whatever it is James coley thinks our potential is, it would have been a different game.

I don't think losing by two scores to Hypothetical Good Offense Having Georgia is bad either, Georgia is like the fourth most talented team in the country at the absolute worst

Speaking of, Jimbo may have spilled some beans this week (probably amounts to nothing): quote:Whether any of those models have been seriously discussed by the SEC is unknown. However, Texas A&M head coach Jimbo Fisher said this week that he believes the conference is mulling a 3-5 model (h/t FootballScoop).

2012 A&M in the Big 12 conceivably plays in the NCG. Other than that the move to the SEC was the right one, imo. Getting out of the terrible Jerryworld game with Arkansas would be ideal.
