I know it doesn't really matter what these dumbasses think, but am I missing something here?

You have the sole SEC leader with really 1 quality game left on their schedule (sorry to jinx things, but I'm trying to be objective here), and not a single one of them includes A&M in their projections.

SEC road games are no joke. Away at USCe is gonna be a massive pain in the ass.

Can also see "experts" not being sold on what we do offensively.

I'm okay with those projections right now. Show them to coach Elko and the Aggie football team and use it to motivate them.

The media doesn't think we're going to make the playoff.

Just keep winning Ags!!

You nailed it by putting "expert" in quotes.

Same fools who said LSU was gonna beat us and tu was gonna beat Georgia. You gotta remember that these experts are just as interested in clicks and viewer numbers as they are in making "accurate" predictions.

Good. Elko and team keeping receipts. I think they are stupid to not at least consider us, but we control our own destiny and don't need outside help. This is pure motivation.

That article was written a week ago. Will still likely see anti-Aggie bias once updated, but hey, just keep winning and it will get sorted out.

This won't look the same after last night. This was the game that people were waiting for.

Shorthorns are in our league now. Any media guy will be fearful to say nice things about us. It could be their jobs. Orange ad white are the mob of college football. If you get good get ready for an investigation of things. They didn't get rich by work ethic.

A rather mid OM went into USCe and smoked them. We own them nearly as lopsidedly as Arky since we joined the SEC.

They mis-linked the article. The updated one is out there somewhere

They are all assuming we lose to Texas. My guess is none of them have watched Texas play this year. They just see that they beat Michigan and OU.

LSU is a finesse team now under Brian Kelly. Not as physical. They are not good at running the ball or stopping the run. Just dinking and dunking and the occasional long ball. Aggies punched them in the chops in the second half. Ran the ball and stopped the run. 4 wins in a row at Kyle Field. Next.

Hey OP, why stop at something written last week?

You can go back to the playoff projections from August and find FIFTY projections to make your blood boil.

Are people actually scared of South Carolina??? I don't think they can score double digits on us and their qb is a turnover machine who can't throw the ball

Oops, maybe if you'll read the thread you'll see where I realized the mistake and it happened to others as well.

I'm just you just chuckled so hard while typing up your post though. Well done.
