I believe rankings like these are meaning less & less every year. With this much 'volatility', how can you trust any of them???
BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

UTD is ranked ahead of SMU in a lot of publications. It's a good school.

Aggies shouldn't be ahead of McCombs. They don't have as much experience and I don't think stats are as good either. You get more variability in quality at UTD vs. SMU.

Bloomberg measures something totally different than quality. Check out their metrics.

No way UTD is ahead of us, nor is A&M.

USNWR is the gold standard. These others are just trying to get attention.

A&M being higher than Notre Dame or USC should tell you all you need to know about these rankings.
