Negative one billion.

Not enough to start a thread about it

I care because it impacts recruiting.

11.

Just for the schadenfreude.

I will enjoy the schadenfreude, but I don't give a **** what they're ranked.

This question is confusing. Kind of like asking if you like Hitler being popular.

It depends. Do they still got that pole assassin and the biting monkey?

Who?

I am a huge fan of an overrated preseason #1 dropping to being unranked regardless of the team. I also love to see an overrated penn state fall.

i will will fully admit it i quite enjoy them falling out of the rankings. every week the ags are my favorite team and my second favorite team is whoever is playing texas. **** those turds. glad they aren't ranked and i hope they lose every game forever.

Zero, because unless we beat them in November we won't care that they were unranked on October 5th.

They're back!!!!

... to where they've been for the better part of two decades

At this point, I can see t.u. Losing at least 3 of their next 5 games and possibly 4. Will help our recruiting in head to head.

I would say a 3. I think they are likely to lose more games, but being unranked right now will keep them from jumping way up if they pull off a W against OU.

Is pointing and laughing an indictator of caring?

This is how I feel.
And I love the doubt that is creeping into the collective psyche their fans like a dark cloud forming over Austin.

We want Texas to do poorly because we both recruit the same state heavily. Same goes for OU and LSU to a lesser degree

I care.

They are our rival. And I think their rankings tumble is hilarious.

Them doing poorly helps our recruiting tremendously

More happy about Ags being #5, but giddy that tu isn't ranked. I'm of the opinion that anything that is bad for tu is good for us.

Giddy that Arch is crapping the bed too. Surlyhorns was a fun read last night.

Recruiting isn't a thing anymore.

It's open and outright purchasing now.

Their purchasing power will not be diminished.

I will perpetually be pissed that Snakey stabbed us in the back and allowed EsipN to buy them into the conference. That will never be forgotten or forgiven. So if we have to be stuck in a backstabbing conference with them, anything bad for them is good for humanity.

Their SHIETING the bed will certainly make A&M more attractive by far !

OP, check out my sig

And tu can take that all the way home. And their little dildo too.

I care. But im not obsessed like most of the board

LOL recruiting. Yeah, OK.

Texas can outspend just about everyone. Let's just hope they continue to rot from egomania and gross incompetence.

I care more about the general over rating than being unranked.

I care enough to laugh out loud at the AI generated Sarkisian presser....and then worry about how we stop an accurate DJ Lagway....

I feel like by starting a whole thread about it, your answer would be closer to 10....It sounds like you do care that they aren't ranked

Rankings matter to a limited extent for "seeding" the committee's rankings in the sense that they seem to not do much strength of record work before transferring them into similar rankings (*if a P4 conference member and blue blood especially.)

Being at 4 or 5 right now is a decent perch for the first CFP committee ranking since we are getting talked about.

Our wins against P4 teams had a whoof of poorly prepared especially first half offense. But 5-0 is 5-0 and traditionally the polls, public, and committee overvalued zero-loss teams. Sankey did some yeoman's work trying to insert strength of record before announcing the ninth conference game, but we will see if there is any actual change.

I do think the Big Ten has an advantage because Texas and Alabama aren't near the top. And they and Georgia all have losses. But that's a "this year" problem at the moment. I'm not sure any of the SEC undefeateds can wear that mantle. But we shall see.

Keep in mind Texas's record as a top ten team against unranked teams. That's how you build a mythology not getting to single digits and imploding like we have done historically. Don't be confused about how things like that become narratives for a very weak poets media.

I care because I don't have to see that god awful color anywhere.

Everyone knows tsips are t-shirt fans who didn't attend, and when they are bad, those fans are no where to be found.

I wear Aggie gear when we are good or bad. A&M will always be my school

Dave Campbell says they're ranked 6th….in the state.

I just have pity on them. I have some unfortunate family members who chose poorly and went there.
They are cousins…family… good people really. The male cousin Doesn't even know how to jumpstart a car and he's in his 70s. They're both uber liberal but they are kinfolk - you have to forgive them for their sins man.
