A&M still ranked. They have two losses.

Clemson and Auburn though. Would you put them out for that? 21 seems about right to me.
They looked terrible on offense against Clemson, and they were favorites at home against Auburn, and I’m not sold on Auburn being more than a fringe top 20 team. We’re 4 weeks in, way too soon to be ranking 2 loss teams.

Fair enough. I was surprised to see them as 4 point favorites versus Auburn. I figured Auburn would get them on the road. And they did.

All that is true, but have you seen some of the teams above them play? Michigan jumps immediately to mind. I think there are about 10 teams in the top 25 that Texas A&M could beat, a few handily.

Michigan is not very good. I had a feeling they’d get pummeled in that Whisky game.

but it’s lot like either game was highly competitive. They can work their way back into top 25, but it hard to come up with a reason for it based on limited data points we have this season

more like that back 2/3s.. again it’s early, but there is some real ugly going on at a more than a handful of SEC programs. That said Bama, LSU, and Georgia are legit NC contenders..

:scratch: A loss is a loss. IMO, no team with two losses should be in the top 25.

We are very average ... Wisconsin on the other hand is very good. The game 35-14 was not as close as the score would have you believe. May people keep under estimating Wisconsin. Good luck with that.

i thought USC beating number 10 utah was worth more than just breaking back in at 25

I would, as there are many unbeaten and 1-loss teams. TAMU has time to prove themselves against Bama, LSU, and UGA. Win any of those, and they have a case.

Yeah, USC beat #10 Utah. They should be ranked higher.

I don't think they are done with the pummeling. This could easily be a 6 loss team.

Boise's schedule looking better every week.
