I'm fairly certain it would be the SEC winner vs. TCU/Cincinnati. Cincinnati still has Illinois and Pitt to go, while TCU just has New Mexico. There has been some talk about Cincinnati jumping TCU in the standings, but Cincy beating Pitt isn't exactly a foregone conclusion.

At least this Texas/A&M game is interesting. 21-21 with 0:30 left in the 1st half.

Go Aggies, and more importantly, go Cincinnati.

AND GO NEW MEXICO!

Outstanding QB Shootout-could be a good finish. Jerrod Johnson is red-hot and Colt's playing his best game of the year with over 325 yards Total Offense at halftime. Johnson has been very impressive hitting on about 90% of his passes.

not likely. texas loss today, still means they play nebraska next weekend. that win would put them back up over tcu in the BCS computers (as i understand it). it's a strength of schedule thing at this point. with the fact that UT is in a BCS conf, and TCU is an add in, it's not likely that a loss to aTm would matter. but it's moot at this point b/c UT won.

Go HUSKERS!!

I'm pretty sure a loss would have sent TCU to NC. Believe it or not UT's strength of schedule is not strong. Think aboout OU, Tech, UTEP, A&M, Baylor, Kansas, Missouri and Colorado who Texas has beaten have all had disapointing years. Throw in UCF, Wyoming and ULM and UT's strength of schedule is nothing to brag about. TCU's strength of schedule is stronger than some realize. Plus Strength of Schedule accounts for only about 25%. TCU would have jumped UT with a loss. Now Cincinnati could still catch TCU

A&M looks like they have some nice young talent, shiould make for some good games vs. them in a couple years...

Mark it...2012 when Padron is a senior & June's last year on his contract ...the aggies play us here. Everything is gearing for that game as the planets align.

If the Aggies don't buy their way out of that game, we need to insist that it is played at Ford and not out at the "Death Star"!!

I have heard (and this is pure rampant rumor) that when Ford gave the money to build the stadium, he insisted that all HOME games played in the metroplex be at Ford Stadium and nowhere else.

Can someone confirm this?

Wow, all of their receivers have such "sticky" hands! I hope Coach Jones is able to recruit some guys with that skill.

Give the Aggies credit, until that kickoff return with 3 minutes left and the missed FG, they traded punches with UT. I thought for awhile that they might pull it off. I didn't know Craig James daughter was a Maggie.

His daughter's an Aggie and his son's a Red Raider. What's wrong with this picture?

BTW, was that his daughter they kept showing on camera in the stands with a CT getting kissed everytime aTm scored?
