The Texas A&M Aggies just got caught napping last week against the Mississippi State Bulldogs. If they had more time, we are convinced that they would have come back to win that game.

However, they still lost the game, and that was enough for us to drop them from No. 2 to No. 4 in our SEC Power Rankings. We still believe that they are among the top tier teams of the SEC, which is why we kept them at No. 4.

However, with Trevor Knight now done for the season, there is a very strong chance that they could drop far below this before it’s all said and done. Trayveon Williams is going to have to remain the superstar in Kevin Sumlin’s offense now.

Meanwhile, the defense has found itself under John Chavis, and they’ll have to step it up even more so the rest of the way. They came up drastically short over the weekend against the Bulldogs.

That unit has to fix its issues as quickly as possible.

Coming up next, the Aggies have to face the Ole Miss Rebels. Sure, it’s at home, but it’s a possible loss that could ruin the year. Texas San Antonio the next week should at least get the team to eight wins.

And they should guarantee themselves nine with a win this Saturday. Provided they can do those things, they then close out the year with a huge game against the next team on this list.
