Texas A&M Climbs to No. 15 in AP Poll After Impressive Win
The Texas A&M Aggies are making waves in the latest AP Poll, jumping to No. 15 after a commanding 41-10 victory over then-No. 9 Missouri. This marks a significant rise for the Aggies, who were previously left out of the top 25 in the Week 6 update due to what pollsters described as a "glitch." Despite the confusion, A&M's status is now clear, as they stand at 5-1 overall and 3-0 in the SEC.
Coach Mike Elko's squad showcased their potential in their most recent outing, dominating the Tigers and asserting themselves as a force in college football. A&M’s performance garnered attention across the nation, making them a hot topic before the weekend's SEC surprises unfolded.
Currently, the Aggies share the spotlight with other SEC teams boasting unblemished league records, including Texas (1-0) and LSU (1-0). A&M is now leading the SEC standings, a feat not accomplished since 2020.
In the Week 7 rankings, the SEC is well-represented with nine teams, including Texas at No. 1, Georgia at No. 5, and Alabama at No. 7. A&M's presence in the poll reinforces the strength of the conference this season.
After enjoying a much-needed bye week, the Aggies will prepare to face Mississippi State (1-4, 0-2) on October 19 in Starkville. The team will look to extend their five-game winning streak and solidify their position in the national rankings.
As the college football landscape continues to evolve, the Aggies are positioning themselves as serious contenders. With a well-rounded roster and growing momentum, A&M fans have plenty to be excited about as the season progresses.
