Texas plays 2 teams currently ranked higher than A&M on their remaining schedule. Total of 3 teams ranked higher. Dumb point.Originally Posted by defense51

And if they were to beat another higher ranked team, it would increase their bcs ranking even more! Originally Posted by Old Tiger

Texas v. A&M in the NC would probably be the highest rated game of all time (aren't all of A&M's these days?). So I say both teams just wait.
I am sometimes mistaken, but I am never wrong.

Recent history would tend to disprove this. Texans and also Southerners in general tend to overestimate how much interest the rest of the country has in them at this point. Originally Posted by Emerson1

How about the ratings on the game of the century rematch in the MNC between LSU/Bama.....was a dud in the ratings. I think I saw where it was the lowest rated BCS MNC game ever. Originally Posted by Aesculus gilmus

No one watched because it was a farce that those two teams were playing again. That matchup had just happened a couple months earlier. A lot of people made it a point not to watch on purpose. Texas v. Alabama had a great rating and who knows how many people tuned out once Colt got hurt and figured it was over. Originally Posted by Aesculus gilmus

Texas moves up pretty quick in polls once they start beating ranked teams. Originally Posted by defense51
