PrintWell, after Week 8 included some major upsets at the top of the poll, Week 9 was all about loses in the middle, as Wisconsin, Clemson, Michigan State, and Texas A&M all lost, further throwing into confusion the second half of this ballot.
Some thoughts:
- The Sooners jump the Razorbacks this week on the strength of the bludgeoning of Kansas State and Arkansas needing another fourth-quarter comeback to beat SEC lightweight Vanderbilt.
- A lot of people out there probably predicted the Clemson loss, but the fall for Dabo's club was not far, as I remain unconvinced about most of the teams behind them.
- Speaking of those other teams, this ballot now basically feels like a toss-up for virtually all the teams once it gets out of the top 10.
- So, Aggies, how is that dreams season going? Oh yeah, not so great? Oh, that's too bad. Really, I'm full of sympathy. Really.

Penn State is a fraud
I’m sorry, regardless of record you can not watch Penn State and have them as a Top 15 team. They are at best a fringe Top 25 team.
Here is some funny
next weekend we could be sitting at 6-2 with a win over Tech while the aggies battle for their season against the sooners. fun stuff next weekend.
Cut!
No. No. No, man.
You're making me fall asleep.
To death, bro! -Ghandi
They have @ OU, then @ KSU the next 2 weeks
they could be staring at 5-5.

SECede?....Whoop(s)!!
Yes, I too feel terrible for the Aggies. How must they feel having a worse record than UT
at this point in the season and actually ranking below the Horns in the BCS?
Poor, poor Aggies.
Look out 2013
Good riddance....
Here is how I feel about the Aglets – GTFO of the Big 12 and do not let the ass whipping you are experiencing in your final Big 12 season slow you down!
For Aggies looking for sympathy
All i can add is that old saying: If you’re looking for sympathy around here, you can find it in the dictionary between sh*t and syphilis.

Just saying...
It might be best to wait until we actually play them this season before we talk to much smack. UT winning out the rest of the season is not exactly guaranteed either. Every game from here on out is a toss-up for the Horns.
Well said about the Aggies
Couldn’t agree more. Though, to an extent, I feel badly for the players and students. They didn’t sign off on this SEC stuff, and bolting the Big 12 agreement they just made.
I think they’re a Top 25 team. Still. They’d eat Penn State alive. They beat Houston — but it might take three days to get in 60 minutes.
Drop Boise State down around where Arkansas is . . . Virginia Tech 14, Duke 10; need I say more? . . . It really does get ugly when you get past OU-Hogs-Clemson-USCeast.
how long?
How long before aggie wakes up and fires the guy that took them into the SEC? My aggie friends liked the move at first. But reality is setting in, they already miss us. A couple of years down the road if we expand to 12 ,they may lobby to get back in.
Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha!
