This week I'll take a quick peek at the AP top 10 teams and comment on their chances of making the playoffs. I'll review the teams at 11-20 next week. Let's look at the Preseason top 10 from the AP poll. In theory, these 10 teams should make the playoffs, so let's take a quick look at them and...

And that's why they will make it into the playoffs...:mad:

It's the portal. The portal allows teams with money to reload every year. It's a type of parity but for only a certain number of teams.

10 wins Beat 0uSux and a&m win at least 2 playoff games. That to me is a successful season.

First INT of the year will go to a LB. Texas State QB won't have time to throw down field so will attempt to dump to back out of the backfield and get intercepted.

Well, my main concern is the defense. A new coach usually means a new system, the D has to learn and I feel there is a potential for mistakes especially early in the season. Close games could be lost on a single play because of a blown coverage. Other than that, I see us getting better every...

I can't pick a player who is going to jump out this fall especially the D. With Coach Boom, I don't know what he's going to bring and who will absorb it the best. I do hope we don't have a bend but don't break D. I'm pretty sure we don't but I see some blow assignments that results in points...

I agree that the Rose Bowl used to be the best, but with the playoffs and the teams jumping conferences, it's become just another bowl game.

It's too early for me to really evaluate the teams, but I will say I don't think Indiana belongs in the top 5. Not sure it belongs in the top 10 either but we shall see. If my math is correct and my memory (of our schedule), Texas will play 4 of his top 10 during the season. Too bad the...

I enjoy going to the Sugar Bowl. I love spending time down in NOLA. We enjoy spending New Year's eve there.

I can't believe anyone would take this guy serious...not even an aggie... 🤔 well, maybe an aggie :LOL:

yeah, Tech loses a .500 QB and all of a sudden they aren't in the top 25? 🤔 With their schedule, it shouldn't be too hard to win 10+ games. That should qualify them for the playoffs.

hee hee. maybe for a year or two, but as they get older, no amount of money is going to keep them in Lubbock.

wow. looks like Tech is going after the Texas recruits. I guess they are telling them they can play close to home and have the easiest route to the playoffs, at least for now. I wonder how they get around the fact they are out in BFE?

Texas !!!
