HLS Top 25 Roulette #6: Texas A&M

August 29, 2011 by The Biscuit

LET’S TRY THIS AGAIN SHALL WE!?!?!?!?!?! And while doing so, let’s pretend like I didn’t just post that I think A&M is better than OK State. Because now A&M is being ranked below OK State because I am lazy and don’t want to hold up the process while I start over from scratch. MMMMMMK? mmmmK.

Texas A&M is #6. Why?

A&M returns 18 starters from a team that went 9-4 last year against a Top 20 SOS (Sagarin). That’s 18 starters coming back from a team with 4 losses, and 2 of those losses (1 to OK State by < a FG) were within a TD. And the flip side are the W's, with the Aggies taking out some quality squads last year: Oklahoma, Nebraska, Texas all felt the wrath of the 12th Man last year. With the amount of experienced talent coming back in '11, look for the Aggies to show their Ess-EE-See Speed (whatever that means) en route to a solid season. #cananyonetellIamsickoftheRouletteandjustwanttogetbacktoND? #thoughtso ... 6.

Don't take me, yourself, or life so seriously. This is supposed to be fun.

Biscuit co-founded HerLoyalSons in partnership with his ND roommate (Dillon Hall baby!), MQ, in 2006 and has been ranting about ND Football and everything Notre Dame since. He strongly believes in the mission of ND and its football program. Biscuit expects logic and data in arguments and will absolutely crush you if you come to a debate missing one or the other. He despises everything Michigan, and his favorite pastime is mocking Purdue.

    5 Spots Left. Teams that we haven’t ranked:
    -Bama
    -Oklahoma
    -Oregon
    -Florida State
    -Oklahoma State

    Not sure who else we missed…so no need to rank Oklahoma State 26th, no?

      uh, yeah, horrible. Forgot about DMQ putting Stanford down in the teens. Fixed it up, lazy-style.

    The Aggies were my pick to be left off completely.

      TX A&M and FSU are both way too high IMO.

      Thats ridiculous, theyll end up as the second best team in the xii. That may mean cotton bowl, but itll still shake out that way

    3 Big XII teams in the top 6? They all play each other too, not sure how that will work out.

      The joy of Roulette. I’d put both lower but I am unable to do so at the juncture…which is what makes it fun.
