App state vs TAMU

Also, we 100% need A&M to win the game, as much as I normally would relish an App State win in this situation. If they don’t, then a (potential) win next weekend doesn’t have nearly the same effect.

But it doesn't matter what they are ranked. We just have to start winning games.
If "just winning games" is the key then we are fine cause we have won the 2 we played...... but the reason you not counting them is cause those teams arent ranked...
 
I hope they lose, if we don’t handle our business moving forward then it really doesn’t matter what A&M is ranked.

What? Who said I'm not counting them?

I know you're just being difficult, but the "win games" refers to the last 20 years, not September of 2022.
 
If we were in a position to care about SOS style points, then A&M's ranking would be relevant. We just need to beat an SEC team on the road.
Program perception is always important. A Miami that knocks off a top 10 team becomes a top 10 team and is in the national conversation - that kind of program has advantages in recruiting.

I just hope you guys understand that saying "it doesn't matter just go 12-0" while also not predicting us to go 12-0 implies that the ranking absolutely does matter.

Great, but if we beat them at #19 and then go 12-1, we're in the national conversation anyway. If we go 8-4, we're still not back. At the end of the day, all that matters is 3-0 or 2-1.

So if we beat them as the #6 team and then lose to Virginia Tech, what did we gain?
