how can you say A&M or Baylor have a decent schedule...i mean tougher than Texas yes, but one decent game doesn't rule out the other D3 schools...

i'm a huge UT fan and i have to say they have the easiest schedule of any team aimed to be top 10 or higher

i can see them going undefeated and not even be close to #1 if there are other undefeated teams

Although Texas doesn't have a tough non Conf. schedule, Nebraska, A&M, Oklahoma, and Oklahome state, will be rank and be very good this year so if they do go undefeated that would help out a bunch. Even with other undefeated Teams!!
