I know a lot of people with sociology degrees. Nearly all of them make 6 figures. 

 

This idea that you “just know” people with a certain degree don’t make that much money or it’s a worthless degree really shows how uneducated you are and are just going by the knowledge of your own social circles.

Agreed. Specialized STEM degrees are practical. You’ll have a job. But you are never taught a broader world view or how to think or write critically. Which is necessary for true, significant potential in finances and life in general. 

They think Texas didn’t deserve to be in?  But Georgia did after losing to a team we beat? 

You clearly don’t understand addy logic.  
No one does to be fair. 

Every playoff or CCG scenario they are talking about on texags is like it’s automatic they will beat us..   The level of delusion is insane.  

aggys schedule is absolute trash this year. LSU and Missouri are dog shit. They may play two top 25 teams all year and both are at home.

I don't necessarily disagree, especially at public schools, but I do think there needs to be pretty carefully crafted limits.  Not every major/minor needs to be a profit center.

It seems odd that a university that brags about how much money they have is worried about costs.  Shouldn't they be able to fund even the most outlier programs?

No. College is not trade school.  STEM teaches critical thinking which is valuable in any endeavor.  I have two STEM majors who are in finance because their employers where impressed with their premed curriculum.  They enjoyed science. Neither ever took a business class.

My Saturday routine, like many on here, is to watch college football all day.  I'm not exaggerating when I state that I didn't hear a single talking head include aggy in the playoff picture.  It was kind of weird.  They'll beat NMSU and Auburn, then "only" need to beat Texas at home.  It's not that far-fetched.  Win a rivalry, night game at home.  It's just funny to see a total lack of respect given to them considering how they're always all, "Everybody look at me!"  To add, if the script was flipped exactly, there's no way folks aren't keeping Texas out of their mouths when talking playoffs.

Auburn is awful but they basically have 3 weeks to prepare for aggy.

Auburn can definitely win that game.

All they have to do is study SCs game plan. They were running the same 3 plays and getting 7-15 yards every time. Bootleg quick dump to the flats was working over and over. 
 

Until aggy learns and adjusts to simple schemes I’d just run what SC did and play tough football and watch them break.

“Sociology Degree Salary in California. $57,700 is the 25th percentile. Salaries below this are outliers. $81,900 is the 75th percentile.“

So starting salary for sociology degree is 25th percentile.  That is bottom 25th.  Not saying job is “worthless” or you can’t make a good salary with it, but my education and social circles makes me believe that 25% is below average.  

However, my real point was that Sociology with a minor in Gender Studies (as an example) is a better way to have similar education while providing better opportunities as “The typical early career salary for someone with a bachelor’s degree in gender studies is $28,707, and within five years of graduation, this average salary goes up to $47,704.”

So I was encouraging people to get Sociology degrees with minors/focus as I believe it provides greater options and opportunities.   This is in light of the removal of degrees from the OP discussion.

Sorry if my original point was unclear causing you to get defensive and jump into personal ad hominem attacks.

Who do they think should be in over Texas? You have to eliminate Alabama before Texas because both won their conference but Texas won convincingly at their house. But yea, I know they don’t know shit about football.

Power ranking the SEC after week 11: #8 - Texas
Texas caught another break this week, facing a battered and bruised Florida team down to an essentially nonfunctional passer at quarterback. They still, despite all that, allowed just three points fewer than A&M did on the road to a Gator squad with both Lagway and Mertz, as well as a 47% success rate.


Concerns still abound with the Longhorns’ rush defense, as UF notched 58% success rate on rushing plays. Especially when you consider that there was next to no passing threat from the Gators, that’s an unacceptable mark from a defense that markets itself as elite.

There’s enough of a talent gap here for Texas to make things look convincing via the scoreboard in a game like this, but make no mistake: this was not a dominant performance. 

There’s a lot of reason for concern headed into the final few games of the year down in Austin—especially now that Ole Miss just showed Texas what an elite team is supposed to do to a squad like Georgia at home.

Power ranking the SEC after week 11: #4 - Texas A&M
The Aggies were idle this week, but there were a couple of results that helped them. Georgia falling to Ole Miss means that the Aggies are back in sole control of the top spot in the SEC, though a non-conference game this upcoming Saturday means that there are a couple of teams that could move up into a tie with them pending next weekend’s results.


The Aggies will come into this Saturday with a lot to prove, however. Their defense had a lot of trouble with the big and powerful LaNorris Sellers and Rocket Sanders last we saw them—the good news for A&M fans is that is an anomalous result so far this season and they will not face another huge QB-RB tandem like that for the remainder of the year.

NMSU is a really, really bad team. The Ags need to lay down the law convincingly in this game on both sides of the ball and get out of dodge quickly. The road game at Auburn is a key contest, and we all know how important the final game of the year is. This one, though it comes against a cellar-dweller, sets the table for those final two.

The blueprint should be to isolate York every single play. Audible into a pass or run depending on his lean. He’s undersized, slow, and out of position frequently. They’re playing with 10.5 men on the field on defense. 
But he has heart and loves TAMU. So he has that going for him. Which is nice.
