The Aggies will play the last 6 National Champions during the regular season (LSU, Auburn, Alabama in divisional play. Florida as cross-divisional).
I don't know if that has ever happend before in the history of the game.
To those who insist that you "must win your conference to play for the title" I would ask this. If the Aggies finished second in the SEC with this schedule, what is the defense that the Sunbelt Conference champ is more deserving of a shot a the national title than Texas A&M?
Further, what is the justification for denying a shot at the title for those teams that join new conferences and are prevented from winning the Conference Title that first year?
