Texas A&M finished the 2025 regular season 11-1 and 7-1 in SEC play, but after losing to rival Texas (9-3, 6-2 SEC) 27-17 last Friday night, the Aggies dropped four spots in the College Football Rankings to No. 7, which did not change during Sunday’s final rankings, staying at 7. They will now host No. 10 Miami at Kyle Field in less than two weeks.

Was this a fair shake for the Maroon & White? No, especially comparing the Aggies’ strength of schedule and strength of record rankings against Ole Miss, as the Rebels will host No. 11 Tulane, which is the much easier path. Still, Notre Dame’s head-to-head loss at Miami, with both teams finishing with identical 10-2 records, was a tough decision, but it does make sense.

Texas A&M’s CFP path is the toughest in the bracket, knowing that a potential win against Miami would lead to a matchup with No. 2 Ohio State, and possibly No. 3 Georgia, to make it to the National Championship round. However, this is the nature of the game, and it’s clear the Selection Committee based the rankings on timely wins and losses, including A&M’s road loss to Texas just a week ago.

Texas A&M has made the College Football Playoff for the first time in program history and will likely host a night game in Kyle Field. Spot the ball, and get to work. Here are the best reactions to Texas A&M’s first-round matchup vs. Miami.

It could be worse!

YES they are, Kannon. Time to get to work!

It truly is the toughest path in the CFP

I mean, that’s pretty much all I can agree with

The debate will continue, especially if the Aggies take care of business

Here’s what happened the last time Texas A&M hosted Miami (FL)

Again, this was one of the only correct decisions

Here are all the first-round hosting sites

The culture change is certainly one of the primary reasons Texas A&M made the CFP

It’s a problem

I doubt that will happen

The opinions are varied, but, hey! More football in Kyle Field!

Texas A&M needs its star running back
