A&M's only true road win is at Mizzou. A&M didn't even score an offensive TD at home vs Auburn. They're not a good team

Did you watch either game?
They were ahead 28-14 late in the 3rd quarter in the SEC Championship and ahead 20-7 late in the 3rd quarter in the National Championship.
I don?t about you, but to me, if you are up two touchdowns late in the third quarter, in the two most important games of the season, and lose both games, you choked.
And I fully expect it to happen again, although I would love to be wrong.
Exactly. Going into the games- nobody thought Georgia was the better team. I look at it as Kirby outcoached Saban as long as he could but eventually the talent took over. You can only outcoach someone so long when they have better talent. All you can do is hope to run out the clock
I'm glad you cats asked for Tusk's take on the CFP********
Think it through.....
GIVENS:
1. UGA beats both CHSO and wins @Ga Tech
2. Alabama beats Arkie and wins @Aubie (sans Bo Nix)
3. Oregon beats Stanford and ORG St
4. Ohio State
5. Cinci beats SMU and wins @ECU
6. Michigan wins @MD
7. Mich State
8. Notre Dame beats Ga Tech and wins @Stanford
9. Okie State wins @Tx Tech
Assuming all the GIVENS are true, this in the CFP Rank, Team and Remaining Schedule:
1. Georgia 12-0 vs Alabama in SECC
2. Alabama 11-1 @Georgia in SECC
3. Oregon 10-1 @Utah, then Utah (again) in PACC
4. Ohio State 9-1 vs Mich State, Michigan, then Wisky in B1GC
5. Cinci 12-0 vs Houston in AKCC*
6. Michigan 9-1 vs Ohio St, then Wisky in B1GC
7. Mich St 9-1 vs Ohio St, PSU, then Wisky in B1GC
8. Notre Dame 11-1
9. Okie St 10-1 vs Oklahoma, and then vs Oklahoma (again) in BIG12C
Now, for the fun part:
DIG IT:
1. Georgia beats Bammer & finishes 13-0
2. Alabama 11-1 loses @UGA & finishes 11-2 (lost @A&M)
3. Oregon 10-1 loses (1 of 2) vs Utah & finishes 11-2 (lost @Stanford)
4. Ohio State 9-1 loses 1 of :Mich St, Mich or Wisky & finishes 11-2 (lost to Oregon)
6. Michigan 9-1 loses 1 of: Ohio St or Wisky & finishes 11-2 (lost @Mich St.)
7. Mich St 9-1 loses 1 of: Ohio St, PSU, or Wisky & finishes 11-2 (lost @Purdue)
5. Cinci 12-0 finishes 13-0
8. Notre Dame 11-1 (lost to Cinci)
9. Okie St 10-1 loses 1 of 2 to Oklahoma & finishes 11-2 (lost @ISU)
and, lastly, "REC does werk".....
It depends on which version of choke. If you mean self inflected by getting food stuck in your throat or did someone put their hands on your throat and choked you. Self inflected choking in football is making mistakes with, miss tackles, penalties and bad special team play. The other choke is like what State did Saturday. They put their hand on their throat and choke the ever living shit out of Auburn.
So, what are the possible Top 25 losses Saturday to move us up some?
How tf do you think someone out coaches someone when the other guy makes a comeback. What kind of stupid take. Did we not just fellate Leach and Arnett for showing resolve and coaching our team into making a comeback. You get a quick lead, you're the better gameplanner. If you hold that lead and win, you can say you out coached them. You blow that lead, then you did not out coach them.
Are we gonna sit here and act like Harsin outcoached Leached until the vaunted Mississippi State talent took over? Harsin held on for as long as he could?
Someone needs to make a stop at Dunkin' because their coffee got something funky in their mix causing them to say stupid things.
In the scenario that state wins the egg bowl
If Alabama beats Georgia YES, both will be in the playoff , that is not a debate, Georgia is not falling from #1 to #5 unless they get beat 55-7
and with the rankings that happened.. If A&M beats LSU they go to the sugar in that scenario
That doesn't matter.
On September 5th in jerryworld the Arkansas razorbacks beat the texas a&m aggies 20-10
Arkansas is 7-3
Texas a&m is 7-3
When they have the same record and play in the same conference/division and have played each other also. You have to rank the winner ahead. If you do it for Oregon you have to do it for everyone.
Committee is putting teams where they want them, not based on anything.
I thought they did it very well the 1st rankings but then wtf is Michigan doing ahead of Michigan state 2 weeks after losing to them.
Can't believe somebody thought we were still in the running for a berth in the Sugar Bowl. :rolleyes:
We are not anymore because of the ranking but yes it was a possibility depending on the ranking.

Ladies and gentleman I present to you the 2016 auburn tigers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2016_A..._football_team
but because of a&m being way too high that has destroyed it. yes if we played a&m again we would win and Arkansas would win too.
I thought that the committee threw out the Memphis game because remember in the first rankings we were 3 loss team ahead of 2 loss Kentucky and NC state who we had beaten
