Playoff contender? Social media reaction sees a reasonable path for Texas A&M
By Keith Farner
Published:
Since Texas A&M lost to Alabama on Oct. 3, the Aggies have reeled off a four-game winning streak, and have, to some, put themselves in the conversation for the College Football Playoff.
The Aggies would need to run the table the rest of the way, and have Alabama knock off Florida in the SEC Championship Game, as that appears to be the expected matchup.
The Aggies have remaining games at Tennessee, against Ole Miss, LSU and at Auburn.
Here’s a collection of the reaction from fans and media to the possibility of Texas A&M making the College Football Playoff:
I wrote a couple weeks ago that Texas A&M was entering a stretch of schedule that should set the Aggies up nicely to be in the CFP conversation when the first rankings come out Nov. 24.
Yep.

Don’t look now… but Texas A&M has looked impressive. Don’t be shocked if the Aggies make a run for the College Football Playoff this year. #CollegeFootball #Aggies #NCAAF https://t.co/w5GNXjrysx

Would like to see Texas A&M and Bama go at it again.
Aggies look like a playoff team.

The big winner today: Texas A&M. Aggies, if they keep winning, will be in playoff conversation if Florida wins out.

Texas A&M is probably going to the College Football Playoff.
Let that sink in. #CFBPlayoff #TAMUvsSC

Texas A&M is going to have an argument for that 4th playoff spot.
— Christian Goeckel (@goeckelespn) November 8, 2020
Florida is a huge asset for Texas A&M who is an Auburn win away from projecting at 9-1 with a win over the SEC East champ. The Aggies could easily find themselves in the conversation for the 4th playoff position.
