Observation about our former BigXII partners

[echeese]

Coach's Poll is out. . .

ESPN poll. . . .

Common denominator?     Among the team who bolted the BigXII, not one of them is ranked in the pre season Top 25.   I'll wager none finished Top 25 either.

No aggie. . .no corn aggie. . .not pot smoking Buffs nor Mizzu tigers.

I find that humorous. . . . .

None have won conference title since leaving nor will this year change that

 

[primal defense]

My observation about our former BigXII partners is that they all suck!

 

[CharcoalPuppy]

Nebraska is pretty much the same program it was those last years it was in the Big 12. 

A&M had early success but has tapered off. 

Same with Mizzou because of Pinkel's retirement. 

Colorado is on the rise but has lost some good coaches. 

Honestly, I'm surprised Colorado are not in the Top 25 and that we are in it. 

 

[TB14]

In their defense, I honestly think Colorado and Nebraska should be ranked higher than us...

Nebraska, perhaps. Colorado, no.

 

[CharcoalPuppy]

Nebraska, perhaps. Colorado, no.

10-4 last year. You don't think that merits a spot in the top 25?

aggy's best team in a generation were all recruited to compete in the Big 12.

Ironic that the pinnacle of aggy achievement is 3rd place in the vaunted and overrated SEC West. (and Arky still hasn't done squat since leaving the SWC)

F$%# aggy

Why would it? Are you wanting to rate last year's team or this year's team?

Take a gander at CU's previews for 2017.

No, the pinnacle of aggy achievement is Alabama's national championships...
