A&M playing chess by losing so they don’t have to play the championship game. It beats the bye in the playoffs because they’ll match up with a lower ranked team.

They might still get a bye. Skipping 2 games is next level.  Maybe we should try that against Michigan.

Hopefully we only fall to 6 and not 7, because the difference between playing the ACC champ and the 10 seed (Alabama or Notre Dame or BYU) is a lot.

On one hand yes. On the other hand it’s been like 30 years since aggy has won a conference and like 12 years since they’ve beaten Texas. 

Also consider they ain’t gonna win shit in the playoffs
