Pretty sure that I transcribed this accurately. With Texas and A&M playing, at least one of the 6 teams jockeying for an SEC title game and playoff appearance is guaranteed a loss. There are eight other games against non creampuff opponents, though I'm being liberal in giving MSU credit for a rivalry game and OU extra points for a big game against Bama at home.
I find it hard to believe we won't seen an upset or two in the 8 games. Florida might give Miss a run at home with DJ Lagway, and I would not be shocked if Auburn either gave A&M a tough road game this weekend or played Bama well in the Iron Bowl. I'm thinking the SEC playoff picture looks significantly less jammed up, after the next two weeks.
As an official member of the dry pants club, I think Texas wins out, and it won't matter for our fate. But, will be interesting to watch, when you throw in lots of pressure down the stretch and a few rivalry games.
