Last year's team was absolutely LOADED with talent and the easiest schedule in decades! Give us a slightly above average Quarterback instead of Reed and the Ags play Indiana in the National title game.
I am here to once again say that you guys need to stop with the "A&M had a cupcake schedule" narrative that the media force fed you.
We beat a great ND team on the road. We beat an Auburn team that would've been 4-0 if the refs hadn't saved OU the previous week by allowing a TD on a cheating play. We beat a 4-1 MSST team whose season fell apart largely because we broke their star RB. Florida was bad, but we crushed them. Survive a rivalry game on the road at Arkansas. Doubled LSU's score in death valley (the whole sports media said it was impossible). Beat a 6-2 Mizzou team on the road. Everyone starts slow on South Carolina, but unlike a lot of other teams, we got it together to win in the 2nd half. The reason that all of the teams we played were in the bottom half of the SEC is because we put them there.
What we played was no easier than Miami, Notre Dame, Ohio State, Tech, Indiana, Oregon.
But was it even the easiest schedule we had in a decade? No, not even. 2016, 2017, 2021, 2022 were not harder schedules.
