We'd gotten up into the top 50 in March, but then we faltered in the second half.

US news just randomly slips us back and forth between 55 and 65.

At this point, they've more or less assigned every school a 5-10 place field that they let them slide around within so every years issue will be different and people will keep buying their magazine.

If I'm going by a magazines ranking, give me Washington Monthly that at least bases it on things like service and improving society rather than a popularity vote by your butt hurt peers

Once again I'd like to point out the Big 12 is a bunch of dummies except for Texas.

And Baylor is the lowest ranked private school in a BCS conference. Why anyone would pay that much money to live in Waco for four years is beyond me. I guess they produce better teachers than public schools do since that's what every girl alum does.

And that SMU ranking over A&M is a joke.

Isn't Tech a Tier 1 school in Texas?

Is Houston tier 1 now? I thought I saw that on one of their television commercials.

Houston is a designated Tier 1 institution by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.

Not sure what that means if anything.

Dropped almost 20 spots since my freshman year in '99. What happened to Bowen's Vision 2020.

Not if you are from another school trying to make A&M look bad, which is what it turned out to be.

The fact that Georgia and SMU are ahead of A&M shows how much of a joke this is.

Interesting to see our acceptance rate is now 63 percent and only 50 percent of students graduate. Things are getting tougher around here.

Yes sir!!! TCU and WVU really "upgraded" the Big XII.

At least tt has someone now they can relate to.

BS! No way we should have moved down. We should have been moved up. And to have smu anywhere near us, let alone above us, is laughable at best.

Gotta say, "WOW! that really sux for the big xii pos conference" though.

Last year A&M was #58 overall, tied with Florida for #2 in the SEC behind Vanderbilt. This year A&M slipped to #65 overall, #4 in the SEC behind Vanderbilt, Florida, and Georgia.

Not only did we drop in the national rankings, but we also dropped in the best public universities ranking.

2012- National Public
58 19

2013- 65 23

We are not going forward we are going backward. I knew when Loftin did not mention the national rankings in his email today we dropped in rankings.

I really don't understand it because it really seems like we are doing well.

Just reviewed it. Son is a freshman at Colorado School of Mines and to have the likes of SMU and Baylor anywhere near what it regularly regarded as one of the best returns on your money/investment of any institution in the U.S. is laughable....loses a ton of credibility. Aggie related because both of his parents are Class of '85.
