11232025 College Football Poll

 Without further ado, here is my College Football Poll....

1 Texas A and M        7-0 12-0       11-29@ Texas  2  +1

This would be Arch Madness's Lone A and M on the 40 Acres Grounds, and I feel Texas is taking Arkansas and A and M with a Sense of Narcolepsy.

2 Indiana                   8-0 11-0      11-29 @ Purdue 1 -1

The Old Oaken Bucket would be a Rock Fight and it is More Of One when the Conference Title is Potentially in Town.

3 North Texas         6-1 11-1       11-29 Temple NR

Everyone in the 215 would rightfully be PO'd if they Miss a Bowl this Year!

4 James Madison    7-0 10-1     11-29 @ Coastal Carolina 4

James Madison is the Only Clear Remark (Sun Belt East) this late in the Season and Worse, Notre Dame is the Only Other Virtual Remark.

5 BYU                  7-1  10-1      11-29 UCF        13 +8

The Cougars have not been in any Conference Championship Game This Century

6 Notre Dame               9-2     11-29 @ Stanford  6

7 Virginia            6-1   9-2      11-29  Virginia Tech 14 +7

The Sports Fan and Humanitarian in me would want the Hoos to have a Permanent (Non Bowl) Year in their Building. The Ponies Fan, would beg to differ.

8 San Diego State 6-1 9-2       11-29 @ New Mexico 8

As it stands, the Aztecs would be the Only Pacific Coast State Team to be anywhere in the Card.

9 Kennesaw State    6-1 8-3      11-29 @ Liberty     NR

The Owls would be the Only Non 1990's or 2000's Club anywhere on the Board.

10 Western Michigan     6-1 7-4     11-25 @ Eastern Michigan 10

11 Ohio State                  8-0 11-1    11-29@ Michigan 11

13 Texas Tech                7-1 10-2    11-29 @ West Virginia 3 -10

Texas Tech is only One of Two 1996 Big XII Members w/o a Title Game Appearance (Kansas) and the only one of two Southwest Conference and Prior Outrights without a Later Title (Arkansas)

14 Tulane                      6-1 9-2         11-29 Charlotte 16 +2

15 Western Kentucky   6-1 8-3         11-29 @ Jacksonville State 15

20 Oregon State           1-0 2-9       11-29 @ Washington State 20

A Cougs win would mean any kind of Postseason in the Palouse

5 Georgia Tech

7 Navy

9 Jacksonville State

*Next Week Will Start With Conference Title Cards*

Calling Out the Aggies!

 I feel with the First Full Offseason under Mike Elko, the more things change, the more they stay the same. Regrettably, the mistakes that Kevin Sumlin and Jimbo Fisher Made are the Same.

Also, the fact that Last Year, the Aggies had their Best Chance at a Conference Title Since Sirr Parker in St. Louis and blew it away makes me mad. 

And, that is not the end of it!

When I expect the Fighting Aggies to at least Own Discipline and Self Control, like being the 12th Man or the Wrecking Crew.

But, the Defense's Motto, which I won't repeat, because they'd eat me out of Cyberspace.

I would get why they are mad because they'd could have put a Stop to Georgia, among other things.

But, what I don't get there is their AD encouraging Reckless and Violent Behavior and I would not be the Fellow who'd condone Everything Under the Word Murder, which too many do, sadly, instead, I would be the Fellow who'd Call Out His Family if they Did Something Wrong.

If the Aggies blow through the Offseason like Cash and Cold Beer, we know something is up.

Texas A and M and Baylor are Riding to the Luxury Tax

 I would not be shocked if Texas A and M and Baylor rode their way to the Luxury Tax. But, I would not be thrilled, either.

I would be less thrilled, especially if Texas A and M paid Good Money for Bad Football and even more enraged that Baylor Coldcrushed Iowa State from a Row of Conference Championships. I'd feel Deion Sanders is not even trying to check these players pasts, especially if North Dakota State is only going to Win More Championships, and Black Education is in Narcolepsy Alert, as in not taking their Job Seriously Enough.

Most people are not going to Stand for the Uncle Stevian Reproach to Strong Arming the Truth, but, having to nose around for More Women is not good. Your not going to get Smart Women if your a Dog like Scooby.

Texas A and M is a not even trying to evade Texas and I'd feel the 2 Division Ethic is there for a Reason. I would feel that Bag is Not Worth the Trouble, and we'd get back to the Annual Sieve of Oklahoma Alumni being in Trouble With the Law and Penn State having to risk life and limb to be a Program.

Openly, most Minorities would fight their Social Diagnosis in terms of Medicine, but, if Medicine and Food Ethics need to be brought up to keep Predators and Womanizers from being Heavily Medicated and Foodies from inundating my Territory, it would be a fight worth winning.

The luxury tax would lead us to the 1st Ever 25 Year Period without a Single Notre Dame or Oklahoma National Championship in History, as Marcus Freeman would angrily be fighting for Notre Dame as his Predecessor Brian Kelly was a Glorified State Senator. The latter only let the Baylor's and Liberty's Rise and Steal and the former would need to Woo Being Closer to Home and Marquette Football being a Program again.

Texas A and M is Trying to Buy National Championships Again!

 This is not funny and this goes right into Texas A and M needing to kick the RC Slocum Habit. Instead of National Championship Defenses, Texas A and M is trying to buy National Championships Again.

I feel that what bothers me is Jimbo Fisher. I don't think A and M would handle losses, because they are not afraid to Out-Money everyone, but, the problem is having Johnny Manziel tie up the Phone Lines for Years and the Suspicion from those Years has not gone away.

I feel Head Coaching is not a Joke. I find no humor that the Aggies are not committed to The Wrecking Crew and that is a Problem.

Just don't get me started on the Transfer Portal and the Lack of Leadership, because both go hand in hand. Everyone in Oklahoma is trying to go to Greener Pastures, and those Sooners who'd stay with the School are angrier and bitter.

Not everyone is a Place where they can contend for a National Championship or Playoff Position, and that is a Problem. All that money that went back into Scholarships will be Nil if you don't perform on the field or in the Classroom.

No Sir, I Do Not Like My Plains Powers Falling Off!

 I feel that I am leveled that USC elected to go with Lincoln Riley after leaving Dean Blevins, the Sooner Hero in Oklahoma City Media hanging and crew in the Worst Kind of Way. I feel it is a merit of a Different Kind of Different Discussion in how Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and Texas A and M are falling off.

Nebraska in the least sense should be a Florida Bowl for their Problems, but, giving Illinois Freebies last Summer and making the Oasis Argument make the Countryside look Bush and Minor is not helping their cause. The core of the program is Antagonism and all of it is not healthy.

Kansas has thrown free the Collars, and I would love to see the Program actually do Functional Things for the Faculty instead of Bringing Shame. The truth is I would see a St. Louis Styled Run on the Prairie with the Way Things are Going.

Oklahomans are not going to like having a 25-30 Title Hex like a Prison Sentence and I feel that it would be an Unwelcome Return to the Mid 1990's as it would be a Chairbanks of a Nightmare in Sooner Lore.

Texas is not going to fire Sark at least this Calendar Year, but, the only good thing around Austin is having to free yourself Sark eventually. 

Texas A and M beats Alabama but doesn't have the discipline to beat LSU? That irritates me and I feel that the Chair would have been thrown more than once.

Why not a 12th Man/ Wrecking Crew Platoon?

 Why not a 12th Man/Wrecking Crew Platoon? I would think the resolution of having a 12th Man and Wrecking Crew be one in the same would deepen the National Lore of the Texas A and M Aggies.

As a College Football Fan, the Wrecking Crew, when it was an annual thing, their mountaintop was giving Nebraska a Rude Awakening they haven't fully gotten up from and upsetting Kansas State from a National Championship and a Heisman Trophy 14 Years Apart.

I would think Jimbo Fisher would not necessarily bring the 12th Man Unit out of retirement, but, I would think it would be a better use of 1993 Numbers for a while. If we had a 12th Man/ Wrecking Crew Platoon Interchangably, it would make the difference between a New Years 6 and a Playoff Team.

That would not be nothing, and I have not heard Player Discipline Issues out of Aggieland and that has been a recurrent of the Sumlin Years.

Could you Revive the Texas- Texas A and M Rivalry Without Telling the Other Side?

 I really do feel that the Texas- Texas A and M Rivalry will be revived again and I feel the key would be having to make Conference Realignment happen. I wonder could you revive the Texas- Texas A and M Rivalry Without Telling the Other Side?

I feel that it would be the Ultimate Small Town "Can You Keep A Secret"? It would be having to bring the Chicago Cubs, Iowa Barnstormers, My Other Classmates at Just Eliminate Lies, and Darrell Alderman to School at Once! I don't know if any of my peers, friends and classmates bring it up at the Bar, but, I couldn't be blamed for trying.

This would be having to drag another Superdome Summit, except it would have to change the College Sports Landscape. It would be a Kick in the Pants that is badly needed, and deter certain people from outsmarting the Cops.

In Sports, this is a HBO Super-Mega-Hyper-Ultra-Heavyweight Title Fight and I can't pretend my emotions in how I hated Texas A and M for going without Texas, 10 Years On. I don't want to see my Thanksgiving Table littered with Super-Fly-Featherweights that do not deliver, especially when I'd want the Brisket to be a Fire Burning like Sean Kingston.

I don't know if I am coming in hot from a Backchannel, but, I am sure that Texas A and M is still stuck with a Sumlin In Disguise and Texas will be happier without Sark in the future and the luster of the Rivalry is not where it should be.

I don't know if we'd teleport home to Lisbon, except the only difference is : I DO NOT WANT TO BE AT HOME! I do feel that the tales they'd never tire of would involve recriminations, and that is not always good.

Texas A and M will Only Make Alabama Work Harder for Another National Championship (Tiebreaker Post)

 I feel like for the tiebreaker post, Jimbo Fisher is offloading and getting too confident over wanting to beat Nick Saban and Alabama. I can't stand the fact most years, the Fighting Texas Aggies run into discipline problems during the Offseason.

And, most people would have no stomach for NSFW Words. The force of habit is had it not been an All Conference Season, Texas A and M would be shamed.

The Helmet Number is up to 19 in Alabama and that feels as if that Alabama outworks everyone when everyone else runs out like a Wind Sprint. I feel that in my developed opinion, that you'd have to think San Jose State or SMU not be a One Hit Wonder.

People are more worn out and worn out and then some. I find in the Digital Equal of Throwing Paper Airplanes, what would we have expected if it was not Alabama in the Championship? A nuisance for Heisman and National Champion?

Seriously, I'd love nothing better than Alabama having a True Road Game that is not a Neutral Site. You name it, it feels like a farce.

2020th Post: How Come is it always Transfer or Arrest with Texas A and M Football?

I feel like the Money Manziel Curse is harassing Aggieland and changing its people worse than the Billy Goat in Chicago or the Bambino in Boston. I feel like I am annoyed EVERY Offseason, it comes down to a Texas Fighting Aggie either wanting to transfer or getting arrested?

I am thinking that Texas A and M Football is devolving into a Full-On Joke and to make it worse, Jimbo Fisher would be the kind who'd sue to get his job back. That is not good content of character and I'd always expect Texas or Texas A and M be a National Power.

Sadly, neither of them are Playoff Contenders and I feel like I have been a Megaphone about key issues, and like Jackson State and the Whales, I get the cold shoulder or worse. Texas or UIL Products do not have a whole slate of Texas Colleges and Universities, like it was spiritually neck and neck.

I feel like with the Aggies, they have to recruit defense. It is dangerous to leave Dallas and Houston up for grabs because SMU is a year from saying Conference and National Champions and seeing their stuff in Marion, and the lure of leaving home is a wanderlust, and not a glorified one at that.

I'd like to see Aggieland develop Full On National Head Coaches that where assistants at Texas A and M, which has not necessarily broken open in their history. I don't think with the Annual Southwest 12, there would be necessarily anyone new as much as having to sell the Revival of the Rivalries to me and other people.

Texas A and M has not won a Conference Championship since I've been 13, and I am mad at how they'd waste whole careers and make folk heroes at the same time. Texas A and M has never been to the Playoffs in analog and I really, really hope to save their Christmas one way or another.

Baylor Hiring Aranda will hurt Texas, Texas A and M, and Oklahoma Later

I feel like as a Warning Shot Baylor will be Postseason Banned before this Spring is done. I feel what Baylor expects is someone else to play teacher other than the real teacher, and the substitutes are also annoyed, and not just in the 4 Walls, but, their everyday life is in a bind, too.

I do not think spiritually, in the mood for rehashes or big budget blockbuster duds on top of each other, that Baylor hiring Dave Aranda would be a gift to Texas, Texas A and M and Oklahoma. It is exactly the opposite.

It is not a gift where Texas has not had a Full Conference Championship Since 2009 and only has had a Regular Season in 2018. Herman has to be apathetic to be taken seriously and Texas is not a First Time Head Coach Program. The Texas Fright in all of this is this round of incompetence is not taken seriously enough to the point that they are washing out of the Athletic Department Standings.

Jimbo Fisher has not inspired Aggies around the World. Actually, he is enabled more than he is taken into account in College Station. Sirr Parker has been their Lone Conference Championship Since 1993 and even though they have thrown money into legit programs that otherwise would have been mocked or made fun of in College Sports, but, I do feel they throw Big Money Around and they are just as equally unaccountable with Big Bills to boot.

I really feel concerned, if not full on guilty for College Station's lack of Community Self Esteem. I would have volunteered a Replacement Texas World Speedway if I was some of my relatives and told the World about it as well. I really want to see Kyle Field be raised as an Olympic Stadium again and Aggies do not want to deviate from the Kyle Field name.

Buzz Williams will bring results and that would leave Hokies equally Sandy and Salty to boot.The sand and salt in Central Texas is there is always wanting to reinstate their game on their fields, but, they next to never could push unless Conference Realignment was a carrot.

I would feel like wanting Lincoln and Douglas, or better yet, Washington vs. Lincoln for a debate, wanting Indiana vs. UCLA for the Last Winter Bell Undefeated, or better yet, Indiana vs. Jackson State, and not just wanting Lincoln vs. Douglas vs. Tyson vs. Douglas vs. Simon vs. Simon vs. Trishelle vs. Beverly vs. Nas vs. Dylan vs. Joel like it was already.

The Aranda Triangle: Dave Aranda Being Hired at Baylor Drastically Changes Texas and LSU

I am not here to make puns, or remotely, for my Self-Control, if not sanity, posts frivolously. Like it or not, LSU would change the Sport worse than that of 2003 or 2007, as their SEC West Rivals are neck deep (no pun intended) in Identity Crisises and thankfully, the Uncomfortably Relatable Coach O is staying in Baton Rouge. What is deep is the Good Fan Bases in Mississippi and Southern California are either settling for less, or feeling like they'd settle for less keeping someone good.

Would LSU make a Good Rose Bowl Guest at this Point? It would be like the people who'd enjoy a Concert too much, and their idea of a Good Time is make it at the expense of Someone Else's. I would think if this was Texas and LSU, it would drastically change things like this was RGIII all over again.

I feel like if this was the Hard Working Heart of Texas, I'd want to at least close the loop of Grant Teaff. It is even worse if your Texas A and M, who is stuck with a Coach who doesn't exhibit leadership (Jimbo Fisher) and Healthier Histories with the St. Louis MO IL and Texas Market is a Job Requirement.

Speaking of Job Requirements, it shouldn't be a barrier to Texas and Texas A and M. If you knew their culture and not just in space, that should be a requirement. Every Spring, to the chagrin of Aggie Fans, Texas A and M always has someone arrested, and Texas always keeps saying "We Back!" If Mississippi and Mississippi State want key Texas High School Football Products, that would be a problem. Mike Leach will operate on his hatred for Texas like Jackie Sherrill and the reality in this is the Pirate Flag can't Pirate the NCAA like a Metallica Album.

Missouri would have made the hire that would have changed Illinois the wrong way and Texas keeps flipping an upset loss to the chagrin of the national fan base.

Why Is Texas A and M NOT Top 25 in Athletic Department Success?

This is a major lump of coal and I do feel that solving the RC Slocum Good Ol' Boy Habit should have been Texas A and M's Problem Solving Tactic. I feel annoyed Texas A and M spends like a Top 25 but never gets around to being a Top 25 in Athletic Department Success.

I feel the only thing acheived in picking Jimbo and NOT Morris is it would be harder to recruit Centerville and Davenport Central. I don't know if Arkansas would go Peloton on the Rose Bowl Cycle with a House they've never been to, but, I have ripped why Arkansas and Texas A and M have evaded Texas for many reasons.

College Station would be the bastion of the Working Class Texan and they should stay the part. I don't know what bad habits are there, but forgetting Calendar Year Mom Mannerisms is that of every or nearly every Man is one of them.

I would imagine many different programs being Mount Union in some shape or another, or having Mount Union Problems instead of having Problems. This is not new and I feel that LSU sawing on tough games at the end instead of gushering at the beginning would make and unmake the Bicentennial Strategy.

I would not have anyone to offer, and it does not get easier when you don't have a good reason for Autographs or Other Fan Mail. I don't know if Jimbo Fisher will get bought out/NCAA Investigated but when, which is dangerous in this rationale. If they where close vs. Clemson, it would be easier to believe "The First College Football Playoff Berth in Texas".

Mississippi never really wanted Luke, and I feel it paid in not firing Hugh Freeze in Februrary and instead, missing out on Lincoln Riley.

Texas A and M's Athletic Director Matters are Not Good at All!

I feel with Scott Woodward's LSU Homecoming illiciting cheers in Baton Rouge and jeers in College Station, I do feel that Texas A and M's Athletic Director Matters are not good at all.

I feel all of it is based off President Michael Young gladhanding the 12th Man, both the Brand and the Honor like it is a thing. The University has an unflattering problem currently of not seeing their best players play on their dirt.

I doubt that in the self-esteem of things, RC Slocum retaking office helps a lot out in that Esteem. I feel like the issue that becomes is why you'd have Coaches with No Social Skills recruiting Players or Transfers, worse yet, with no Social Skills. 

The 4th Word in the Duty. Honor. Country. Motto is Honesty. I feel the 4th Word would mean a lot as in not having people board/stay/ prolong their matters like they couldn't be happy at home.

The matter is I think a lot of the Texas A and M Adminstration is satisified just the way things are, unaware that the tug back home (Other Texas/Regional Schools, including Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Arkansas) could be really jerking at their bootstrap as far as the future.

Boston College is being both Right and Wrong in not flying to Texas A and M

I feel like stating Boston College is being both right and wrong in Not Flying to Texas A and M. The part that is right is the fact is air travel still is nothing to play with in imminently bad conditions.

And, the wrong part is losing a game for the NCAA Tournament on both ends. And, I would not want to rack my mind around a Plane Tragedy, having to start from scratch later, and having nothing but True Freshmen later, and it changing Chestnut Hill for worse.

It's not easy being soft. And, we have more styles than work ethics, which it is a problem.  And, by far, Men's College Basketball is the loss leader for academics to the point it drags Sports GPA to the Sub-Basement.

And, the averages of a broken sport is not good, where the Upset NIT Champions have been buried in interpersonal mayhem. And, no amount of physical injury would make anything better, even though we have plenty of Basketball Stars, but, never, plenty of them being on teams after High School or AAU.

Breaking the RC Slocum Habit: Why Jimbo Fisher will be a Year or Two at most in College Station

College Station is more blue collar than most College Towns and I feel Jimbo Fisher would be a year or two at most. And, it would take more than tearing out the Black Carpet and Dark Lights in the Football Offices. I am thinking they'll have to hire A and M Consolidated to make it a true Local Aggies.

And, it would be the same 2 Years with the Same 8 Conference Games in 2 Different Conferences. And, the same Arkansas Series to lift the lid, especially having to play in Little Rock again. And, with no visible Senior Leadership, the fact you have to be TEAM first and last.

And, it would be a jarring Oklahoma State and SMU in Season 2. And, I feel the perennial pipeline of East Texas and Houston should be reopened like Butler in Indianapolis or Grand View in Des Moines.

It would not be impossible to have a true Neighborhood College Football Power if we put our minds to it. And, the athletes that would keep your room from getting chirpy would be focused on other sports and academics, too.

Exit 17: Davidson is becoming Texas A and M's Biggest National Rival

I feel the perks and jerks of if only it was as easy to figure out passwords just to buy major championship tickets. Even though it will always be Texas and SMU always, but, the digital shenigans have me splitting in Texas A and M trying to crack the code, The Aggie Code, as always.

I feel like, too, what would Steph Curry have anything to do with attending a Super Regional on an unfamiliar turf if he wasn't taking gold? I'd like to see if Reservations and Travel be as common as regular days to us, but, that is not the case today.

If say, Mississippi lost the Rose Bowl, their devotion to their program would not stop January 2nd. I think, other than before, when you'd have the country station or another radio station having to make everything be a certain way, but, IT is still a thorny art.

I feel a lot of the battles need to be settled on the field, not in shenigans. We do have Davidson Alumni or Non Graduates in Dallas, too. And, what Aggies would live for is December 31st or the end of the Texas Game, as the extra-extracircullar tradition is just as common as relentless Sports.

By the time Exit 18 comes up in memories, I feel people who want to be close to their program or want to see good sports and not leave elite to Bieber.
