CBS Sports has released its preseason top 25 as teams begin gearing up major recruiting efforts and spring practices.

However, despite the Alabama Crimson Tide having won three of the nation’s previous four national championships, senior college football analyst Dennis Dodd is not ready to give coach Nick Saban’s bunch the benefit of the doubt.

Read on — there’s a surprise awaiting you, the erstwhile college sports fan, at the bottom of the page.

25. BYU Cougars

24. Ole Miss Rebels

23. Northern Illinois Huskies

22. Nebraska Cornhuskers

21. Oklahoma State Cowboys

20. Oklahoma Sooners

19. Kansas State Wildcats

18. TCU Horned Frogs

17. LSU Tigers

16. Northwestern Wildcats

15. Boise State Broncos

14. Oregon State Beavers

13. Florida State Seminoles

12. Texas Longhorns

11. Louisville Cardinals

10. Notre Dame Fighting Irish

9. Clemson Tigers

8. Florida Gators

7. South Carolina Gamecocks

6. Georgia Bulldogs

5. Oregon Ducks

4. Ohio State Buckeyes

3. Stanford Cardinal

2. Alabama Crimson Tide

1. Texas A&M Aggies

Surprised? So is quarterback AJ McCarron and the rest of the Tide, we’re sure. At the very least, Nick Saban can use this to motivate his guys, that’s for sure.

    Nor did she ever learn the proper use of “an” indefinite article, pun intended. It is “an AGGIE,” not “a AGGIE.” Learn to incorporate punctuation correctly too, please. Nevertheless, you should be mindful of your own incompetence before you use ad hominem attacks against others, because now you look like a fool.

    I can’t say I disagree on their proper starting spot in the rankings based on the “show me” factor, but I expect the Longhorns are going to return to being a contender next year. We all know where a start at 12 -15 takes a team 5-6 weeks into the season without a loss…. The rest of the conference seems to be facing a bit of a drop-off, and I expect Texas will be a top 5 team by mid October in the thick of the hunt. To your earlier post, they were one of the youngest teams in the country (three senior starters and five seniors on the team), and they are stacked with talent. Stability at QB will take this team a long way, and my gut tells me Ash will turn the corner. How about UT v A&M in the national championship??

  Not bad but I think you’re leaving out Notre Dame, they should be good again next year. Probably shouldn’t be #1 but they may need to be in the top 10 to start. Also not sure about Texas being in the top 10 (which is very hard for me to say as a Longhorn), they still have a lot to prove so around a #15-20 spot for the horns would be where I put them…then again with Applewhite taking over as the play caller who knows what will happen.

As a Texas A&M Aggie, I am happy to see my school getting some recognition … but I must admit that I would differ in my rankings (as would most Aggies). Yes, A&M beat Alabama in 2012 … but Bama still won the national championship, and has done so in back to back years with the same QB, a QB that is back next year. Alabama should be #1 in any preseason poll … and if beating Bama in ’12 grants a team some recognition and some respect, than A&M can be #2

    Yes we did win over Alabama, but i wouldn’t say that we “beat” them. If it wasn’t for that last interception we would have definitely lost the game. People fail to realize that Alabama was catching up to us and that they were about to score a touchdown with the clock winding down but that last interception is what closed the game and gave us the win. Alabama was not well prepared for our team, but trust me, they will be prepared come next season, Nick Saban said it himself. We also lost to LSU and yes we can argue that if we had a better kicker, we should have won the game. There are also other teams in the SEC that we would probably have trouble with, like Georgia, they almost beat Alabama. As an aggie I believe we had an incredible season and our program will only get better but Nick Saban and his team has won 3 BCS championships in the last 4 years, until we win a championship then i’ll rank us at number one but for now Alabama deserves to be in the number one spot.

        Believe it or not the Texas A&M game was only Driskel’s second start at QB ever. It’s not like Florida had the opportunity to play Texas A&M before the Aggies had the chance to play Florida. At home no less! Ridiculous logic here.
        
        Yeah results might have been different if your QB was more experienced but why is that an excuse for a loss when you’re trying to argue natl championship implications? A loss is a loss in the brutal world of CFB. Awesome season by the Aggies but you can’t just pretend that loss (at home no less) didn’t happen.
        
        And a TD is what separated Florida from going to the SEC Championship. 10 yards separated Georgia from the natl Championship. A FG in OT was all that stopped Oregon from the natl Championship. The Aggies have an incredibly bright future but these excuses are BS.

And I mean we BEAT Bama that day. Forcing them into uncharacteristic turnovers and catching them off guard with our style of play. Do we deserve to be number one Who knows?

        I’m as much an aggie as you are and I was beyond excited that we were able to beat Alabama and to also do it on their own field. I’m not trying to take the win from us, it was the biggest a&m game in years! I watched all the games and saw Johnny Football turn into a heisman winner. Yes we were the only team to beat Alabama, but some ags make it seem like we’re the champions since we were the only team to beat Alabama. I have as much school pride as the next person but sometimes you just have to let the champions be the champions, in this case it was Alabama. Hypothetical question, say we were to play Alabama in the BCS game this season, would we win? We can see what Nick Saban and his team did to LSU last season. I’m not saying we would lose, but Alabama given ample time to prepare can BEAT teams. So come September 14 we’ll see. As an aggie i say BRING IT BAMA, but as someone who watches football religiously i have some doubts. I’ll still be wearing maroon and white that day and rooting for our team to win!

        Bama fan here, and take credit where it’s due. You guys came into our house and beat us. Yes, we were coming back, but you guys found a way to win. Georgia was coming back on us, but we found a way to win. We took the win for what it was and moved on to the BCSCG. It didn’t hurt our feelings that the game was close and not a blowout. I’m looking forward to seeing how you guys do this coming season. I think replacing Joeckel and Swope will be key to you guys repeating the success of this season. Best of luck to y’all and glad y’all are here in the SEC.

        Bama outscored A&M 24-9 the rest of the game, and I believe if AJ set his feet on that final pass instead of throwing sidearm on the run the pass wouldve resulted in a touchdown instead of a pick. But, that’s not how it played out. I
        disagree, while I will say that A&M should be a top 5 team Alabama
        just won the national championship and embarrassed the #2 defense in the
        country putting the game away in the first quarter. Don’t know why he
        has bama number two in his poll but i definitely think that the SEC west
        will be a lot tougher than it played this season with the additions of
        Belima at arkansas and Malzahn at auburn.

        I think you mean embarrassed the “#2″ defense in the country. Also, A&M went 20-0 against a team that regularly outscored its opponents in the first half 7-0 in the first quarter. Stupid non-contextual statistics can be applied both ways; All that matters is we can say we beat you, and you can’t say the same.

      Peter- I agree with most of what you say. However, if you want to talk about one play here or there, don’t forget about the two uncharacteristic long pass plays given up on blown coverage late in the game that led to two Alabama scores. If Alabama had ended up winning that game, if would have been seen as a few stars aligning to allow a great comeback, but I don’t see that way for an the A&M victory.

You’ve been under the shadow of the formerly good Texas team for so many years, you don’t know how to talk smack! LOL. You’re in the hottest conference in America and Bama is the best team in the nation right now… and you caught us with our pants down last year. Won’t happen this year. Saban is tops in revenge games.

    I think if anyone should be in an uproar it should be LSU and Florida fans. Both beat A&M at home and LSU did it in the middle of Manziel’s hot streak. Both of them choked… HARD in their bowl games, but I do think that since most of their players are returning, they should be ranked higher than A&M.
    
    And I’m pretty sure that LSU will beat A&M again this year since they’ll be playing at LSU. Death Valley being the loudest, craziest, and most hostile environment in all of college football.

  Truth right there. USC was no. 1 preseason last year. I just hope the team doesn’t get stuck up by the ranking. That’s one reason why I (Fightin’ Class of 16) think Saban is the best coach in NCAAF right now; he keeps his team from being to full of themselves and never settles for rankings.

    based on what? their under-performing defense? A loss to major underdog TCU on thanksgiving? Try using facts (instead of calling people loser) to make claims about a team with subpar and disappointing performance this year.
    
    I believe the high preseason ranking this year for Texas (as in most every year) While they have lost a number of recruits, thier recruiting is nationally still top-ranked, which is a major factor in PREseason rankings, and thus probably why they are in the top ten.
    
    See how fun and friendly facts can be!

      Mack Brown is quite the recruiting master telling both RG3 and Johnny Manziel that he would consider letting them be walk-ons in the secondary. Probably a good decision, they aren’t much good at quarterback anyway

      They only lost 4 starters and still competed with every team they faced except OU. Even as mostly freshman and sophomores they were still only one win away from winning the BCS bid for the Big 12. The Alamo Bowl gave some highlight to how Texas can play with Applewhite calling the shots, unlike Harsin Applewhite spread the ball out to all of Texas’ speed which ended up winning the game. I wouldn’t say they are one of the best teams in college football to to think they shouldn’t be in the top 25 is kind of crazy to me.

    OH, Heck no, Texas shorthorns should not be in the top 25 at all, until they get a real QB and a new coach, the coach from the N. B. Stoops owns Mack Brown and Texas will at least have 4 loses this year, losing again BIG to the Sooners. Texas fans should be calling for Mack’s head, but the Sooner fans want him to stay! Enjoy your ugly a*# burnt orange and another below avg. season!

      The most dominant defensive performance I saw all of last year was Texas’ performance against a higher ranked Oregon State team in their bowl game. I saw an offensive tackle for the Beavers literally crying in the 4th quarter. Negative total yards for the Beavers in the 2nd half. If that Longhorn team shows up 12th might be conservative.

        Weird, I saw an Oregon State team have some seriously boneheaded coaching calls. They ran all over Texas, but started passing it in the 4th when it wasn’t needed with an inaccurate RS Frosh QB.
        
        This cliche gets around a lot during CFB, but Oregon State lost the game more than Texas won it.

      Lol yeah OU beat us in the Cotton bowl. Badly. But tell me one thing, how is our season different then yall’s? Yes you won a game on us, but we won a bowl and have a more experienced team next year. Oh and I love how Gooner fans talk about how many titles they win and how great their football team is, but the last time OU won a title? 2001. Ohh but but we won a BCS game two years ago, yeah versus a UConn team that had to beg their fans to go to the game. I don’t think the head man on campus in Norman has a very comfortable seat either.

      i seem to remember that the only thing below average is the aggies record against the longhorns across history, roughly 1 in 3. Dont get me wrong, im happy that the aggies did well this last season, but this sounds a whole lot like Every Houston Texans Fan that talks shit about the cowboys. You had one good season, get over yourselves. Put a ring on the finger, then you will start to have an argument. Your ranked number 1 before the season starts, theres a lot of ground to cover before the end of next season but yall are acting like youve already won the championship.And for the love of god, why would anyone attack Mac Brown? He is one of the winningest coaches in college football history!

        Don’t see anywhere in the thread of anyone acting like we won the Championship. Just showing excitement that for once we’re getting respect well-deserved. The difference between an Aggie and a ‘horn is that we care about the football more than the rankings, but it’s always nice to receive recognition for a job well done.

    Good Ol’ T-shirt t-sips thinking that no matter how crappy of a season tu had, they deserve to be in the top 10. Don’t worry, ESPN still rides the tu nut sack and will more than likely have your piss poor excuse of a team ranked in the top 10. I mean how could they not, considering they have about $80M wrapped up in the Longhorn Network. So hurry and run to Walmart and pick up your new Longhorn gear and get ready for another poor performance in 2013.

  You’re not really that dumb are you? They had another disappointing year by Texas standards but still improved over last year with a 9 win season and ended the year with a solid performance over a higher ranked team. They were also one of the youngest teams in country, with a ton of returning talent and some recruits that can contribute right away; I think they are ranked just right to start the season… I think the Aggs had a great season and will do good next year but as far as a #1 ranking? Kiss of death if you ask me… Johnny Football will have a ton of pressure next year that he didn’t have this year and they just lost their OC to Tech.

    Yeah, I think the Aggies have a shot at winning it all but putting them at #1 already might not be a good idea. While Johnny Football is coming back the Aggies will probably lose 3 big-time offensive linemen to the NFL which is a lot of why they did so well this year to begin with. Betting against Manziel isn’t a good thing to do, but the chances of them running the table next year are going to be harder than most. Plus, you can’t forget Ohio State will be post-season eligible again and Notre Dame doesn’t really have any teams on their schedule that can beat them. Even with the much tougher schedule the Aggies have an undefeated Ohio State and Notre Dame team would probably jump any 1-loss team. As for the Longhorns, they should be better and deserve to be in the top 25 for sure but there is still a lot to be seen with Applewhite calling the shots for Ash, he could very well turn it into another BCS team if he can do everything right and the defense is decent. They were only 1 win away from winning the Big 12 bid this year and they only lost 4 starters.

      No. Always over-ranked and under-perform. It’d be nice to see the ranking reflect actual talent and prospects for once and leave them out of the Top 25 to start the season, and make them work EARN their way up the rankings like everyone else.

        Well A&M has had Blinn team for a while, and they’ve always had a back-door system with Texas A&M at Galveston. But standards being raised have nothing to do with the respect a university achieves/bestowed upon. The increase in standards reflect the high volume applications to its more popular majors. I guarantee you that A&M is not lowering its standards to its more competitive programs i.e Engineering and Natural Sciences, but neither is UT. They are just trying to curtail the number of people that they have to deal with at any one semester, for undergrads in the US, are taking longer and longer to graduate these days.

        Well actually, it IS harder to get into University of Texas than Texas A&M. In fact, UT has better rankings than A&M (my own Alma mater) when it comes to majors that matter (practically all engineering except for Nuclear, the McCombs school of Business is comparable to IV leagues), they have several Nobel Laureates on their Physics Dept. and the list goes on. Its sad, that they outclass us, but its true.

        That depends. What programs did you apply to and get accepted in ? Mind you, both UT and A&M are not very selective in their less competitive programs, i.e. education, communications, art history, etc. In fact, a very good friend of mine has a BS in history from A&M, who I wouldn’t trust to take out my trash, but one would think more of him for his diploma from A&M. This obviously isn’t reflective of the respect A&M has. It also varies, from case to case. I applied to the UT engineering program and was wait listed, but I received scholarships at A&M. So … from my perspective, may be UT was trying to curtail the number of Indians they had on campus, and A&M was trying to get more diverse while trying to shed their primarily red-neck image.

        Both school are respectable schools, but it is harder to get into UT than A&M. If you’re not in the top 8% of your graduating class, it’s pretty safe to say you’re not getting into UT. I’m not saying that all UT students were in the top 8% of their class, but a HUGE majority of them were.

        I was in the top 11% in my graduating class of 670 and got a 34 on my ACT. Yes, I took highschool as a joke, and didn’t try. I got into both UT and A&M. Ironically, Austin was my backup school as it was easier to get into engineering there. How can I prove this? Oh, just by the fact that I didn’t make it into Mechanical Engineering at A&M, but managed to get in to Austin’s program. (Thank Jesus I didn’t go to Austin because I fell in love with Industrial Engineering, which was my 2nd choice for A&M.)
        
        The automatic acceptance is complete BS. It doesn’t assure you a place in your college; it assures a place in the university. My friend in the top 8% didn’t make it into Mechanical Engineering at UT, while I did.

Alabama beat Notre Dame, but any of the top 5 teams would probably have beat them. They are not in a conference and they play very few (if any) top “difficult” teams. Please….give the Aggies some respect. They blew OU out of the water. I think Sept. 14 will tell the tale. That being said, I think the Aggies SHOULD be humble about being ranked #1 – they are a top team, but they will have to prove it in 2013.

Good to see this as an Aggie (’91), but now its all about the playoffs, so hopefully we will be one of the top 4 when the time comes. Just hope the limit on the number of teams from a single conference doesn’t bite us (or anybody else) in the butt. But if It does, maybe that will warrant an expansion the following season to 8, maybe 12 teams. Cant wait for September.

Both Bama and the Aggies have lost some key players to graduation or early to the NFL draft; CBS is simply looking to stay relevant by jumping in the pool in Winter. NOBODY knows where any team will wind up, after all, it matters little where you start because it is the ending we care about.

Whoop! I think the projection is good. Last year was last year… and since this is the 2013 predictions, then I believe they see what we Aggie fans have seen all year. Stellar play by a great group of young men, led by a great coaching staff. Losing Kingsbury was disapointing, but any more in this game, the coaches seem to hop to the next best opportunity. I hope Coach Sumlin doesn’t succumb to that trend. Looking forward to the season. Gig ‘em Aggies!! dbd ’83

  You’re right about A&M but c’mon… you gotta be more realistic with Texas. Look past your hatred for THE University of Texas. They had another disappointing year
  by Texas standards but still improved over last year with a 9 win
  season and ended the year with a solid performance over a higher ranked
  team. They were also one of the youngest teams in country, with a ton
  of returning talent and some recruits that can contribute right away; I
  think they are ranked just right to start the season… I think the Aggs
  had a great season and will do good next year but as far as a #1
  ranking? Kiss of death if you ask me… Johnny Football will have a ton
  of pressure next year that he didn’t have this year and they just lost
  their OC to Tech. I would put the Aggs in the top 5 and Texas at 15

    They had a disappointing year by “Texas” standards? Did you watch the same season as I did? As an Aggie without U.T. hatred (my brother just graduated from there and I have a lot of good friends that are current/former students- including one who played on special teams) but we ALL know that Texas is overranked EVERY preseason. So let’s not pretend that there is some way to rationalize this, it’s just the way of the world: Texas is going to be amazing despite countless disappointments last season. A&M is going to disappoint despite countless moments of evidence to the contrary last season. (The majority of us down here in CStat accept it and just laugh silently to ourselves whenever everyone is shocked by our performance).

I think you missed the entire big 12 – in different directions. Even the Aggies I know would not rank themselves 1. I (and my Longhorn friends) would not rank ourselves that high either. We are overrated at the beginning of the year in every poll. I’d say 18-20 is more realistic. And what the heck did KSU and OU do to you to earn the 19/20 slots. Both deserve higher (KSU MUCH higher).

  Actually, if you’ll read through the comments as I have done, you might notice that the majority of those that claim Aggie-status, do not agree with this ranking and think that we should NOT be ranked number one. I, an aggie myself, agree with those thoughts. I think we were a great deal better than anyone (ourselves included) expected and it was a very happy surprise. I also think that we have a good shot at being a very good team next year, though with the large loss that we are taking in those players that we’re losing to either graduation and/or the draft, we expect there to be some learning pains involved. However, apparently the people who made this ranking disagrees with us (and I suspect he is not an Ag, just a guess). So be careful putting words in others mouths and come down for a visit! We’d love to show you around and take you out for a beer and some friend chicken!

  True, but he also helped himself out. If the DE’s rushed too deep, it would create a seam and JFF would be through it. In nearly all of the games from October on, defenses would bring a controlled rush to keep the pocket closed. Funny that Arky didn’t get this. On the first or second series their ‘spy’ came tearing after JFF, who stepped to the side and ran for a TD. Not to belittle the A&M OL – they were outstanding this year.

I’m glad the Aggies are getting the recognition they deserve. The were always a tough Big 12 team and a consistant BCS buster. Being a Longhorn alumnus and a fan, I can tell you I hated them with a passion. They are a great team and if you manhandle a team that later on goes to win the National Championship, then you should definitely get the #1 spot. Let Bama prove they deserve the #1 and let the Aggies prove they earned it. I’m looking forward to what might be a great rivalry. And for you people that think the Longhorns don’t deserve to even be in the top 25… you’re out of your mind. I don’t claim they deserve the top 10 but they more than proved their ability to win. Definitely worthy of the top 25.

To be fair, we really just took Bama by surprise. Their defense just wasn’t geared for the quick snap big 12 style pass attack with a mobile qb, and we came out firing. Its a good thing we had the good start because Bama was getting a handle on it by the end. I have no doubt Saban will have them ready next year. We probably need to be more worried about reverting to our role as perennial underachievers a la Big 12 than about whether we are best in the country.

Love the messages that say the Aggies wouldn’t have beaten bama were it not for the interception, bama was getting ready to score, yada yada yada.

Does anyone remember the Super Bowl between the Titans and the Rams? If not, let me refresh your memory. The Titans were driving for a go-ahead touchdown in the final minute, but were stopped one yard short of the goal line. The Rams won the game.

It’s the same as the A&M-bama game. You nay-sayers need to accept the fact that A&M won, bama lost, and that’s that.

P.S. To the people who “claim” to be Aggies, but say bama should be ranked #1, I’d love to see a copy of your diploma. Me things your license plates probably say “Heart of Dixie” rather than “Lone Star State”.

I’ll say this straight up. A&M is ranked too high. They beat an Alabama team when AJ McCarron, who may be the best QB in the nation, was off his game. They beat a Bama team this year that was completely reloaded on talent and had no true pass rush threat. Alabama had come off an emotional road comeback win over LSU the week before and were sluggish in the 1st quarter. Kliff Kingsbury, the OC, called a brilliant game to maximize what Johnny could do and worked with what Bama’s defense showed him successfully.

And after all that, Alabama is one goal-line interception from overcoming a 20-0 first quarter deficit and winning the game by at least 30-29. A&M plays them again, and they lose 9 times out of 10. I am an Aggie, and I am proud of my team. But there is no way to justify them being ranked #1. I don’t think the AP Preseason Polls will do that either. A&M lost Kliff and Luke Joeckel, a huge reason why Johnny even had the time and lanes to scramble as he did. With no bright play-caller, I don’t expect the same offensive success.

If I were to rank, this would be what it would be tentatively.

1. Alabama
2. Georgia
3. Stanford
4. Florida (Bridgewater was the best QB they played all season)
5. Ohio State
6. Oregon
7. Louisville
8. Texas A&M
9. South Carolina
10. Clemson
11. Notre Dame
12. Florida State
13. LSU
14. Oklahoma
15. Kansas State
16. Northwestern
17. Texas
18. Nebraska
19. Oregon State
20. Vanderbilt
21. UCLA
22. Oklahoma State
23. Michigan State
24. Boise State
25. Ole Miss

Lets take at the behavior of people near universities for a minute.

My truck in Tuscaloosa AL, with an Aggie sticker, and me wearing an Aggie shirt: Most common thing I heard was “Y’all got a great team, and Y’all did good.”

My truck in Austin, TX with an Aggie sticker, and me wearing an Aggie shirt:

Tires slashed and someone peed where the A/C draws fresh air in from the outside.

You can’t ever win an argument with a Longhorn…..it’s like telling a 3 year old no ice cream when inside a Baskin Robbins.

I see where Notre Dame has slipped to number ten in the rankings. That makes sense to me, since Alabama exposed them as the most over-rated team in the NCAA. As a Rice alumnus, I’m amused by the arguments between the Texas and Texas A&M boosters. I hope that both schools have great years.

Thats a funny poll !! I actually feel sorry for A&M – now they’ll get to see what its like to be the “hunted” in the SEC. How any one puts them ahead of Bama/LSU when they lost their best Def player and O-Lineman and finished 3rd in SEC West in 2012 is laughable. Are they expecting these 18yr old recruits to some in and dominate the SEC ???

You’re all retarded. UT has Ivy League level business school. Ranked in like top 5 in the country or something. A&M is better for engineering. Two completely different types of schools. Everyone shut it. If I’m not mistaken this is a football poll…..not a which school is harder to get in and why poll.

So the Aggies, who were basically irrelevant for 15 years now have one good year and they are out fo the woodwork and #1. They will be back to choking away games next year and being a lesser team than UT and TCU.

With all of the Bama haters out there, I would be surprised if they were ranked number one at the beginning of the season. The did, however, lose a lot of talent this year. So, it is not out of line. Maybe they will not get complacent during the off season.

Why do they never mention his performance against LSU after the beat down they gave them. Manzeil rushed for 27 yards on 17 carries with a 1.7 average. He got 96 yards passing on a meaningless drive to finish with 186, no TD’s and 3 INT’s. Have you seen highlights of him against LSU, NOT A ONE>

As for the thing about a new play book, we don’t use one. As for the comment about loosing Cliff Kingsberry to tech, Summlin is the brains behind the offense and we BTHO OU. As for the concerns about loosing players, we have one of the best recruiting classes in the nation. A&M and tu are also very comparable academically, they are usually very close in the rankings depending on which ones you look at. A&M is considered one of the best values, education for the money, of any school in the nation. A&M’s business and engineering school are both considered among the best in the country as well.

Guess what Texas leads the series 76-37-5 and last time I checked the boys in orange upset the ags at home 27-25. I guess the aggies got tired of getting pushed around by The University of Texas so they ran and hid from us. By the way UT is the 16 ranked public school in the nation whereas ATM is number 24. So we won that battle too. Hook me Horns! And all you aggie lovers need to respect your dominant rivals!

It amazing how simple minded people are. Everybody knows that the best college in Texas is Texas A&M or any other college besides t.u. and texas tech…and SenorPappy you are right…t.u. should not have been in the top 25 as well…Baylor has a better football program then those t-sips do right now and it is because MacBrown has not been able to grab a QB that is just a “good” as Vince Young was…He passed up on a lot of greats…Johnny Football, RG3, just to name a few…
