My boy Graham with some wonder wordsmithing. What I think he's saying is that W-L don't matter when you look through the team's season based on SOS, conference play, conference champs. You know, the stuff that don't matter:

Texas A&M football fans are well familiar with just how difficult the grind of an SEC schedule can be on a team over the course of an entire season. The Aggies have too often seen their squad trip up against a team that, while talented, is still in the lower level of the conference as far as win total.

That in mind, it makes sense that the Aggies are often nearer to the top of advanced statistical profiles than they are in the polls, as the temptation towards an erroneously egalitarian view between the conferences is clear in pollsters' voting habits. However, when strength of record is calculated— the difficulty of achieving a given team's win-loss record against their schedule— A&M is nearly always shown to be better off than many teams ahead of them.

The funniest part of Graham's verbal diarrhea is aspiring to finish 9-3.

9-3 is pretty elite when you’re used to 8-4 or 8-5

He's more inline of thinking 10-2:

Of course, a 10-2 year should put A&M squarely in the field without question, and some have predicted as much. But this 9-3 scenario seems a lot more likely at this point if you follow the metrics. Could this addition of SOR consideration lift A&M into the playoff field? We'll just have to wait and see.

Of course aggy would call Reed a “dark” horse

Just an FYI - the CFBHome account was being sarcastic.  They clown aggy all the time.  Also:

Should an elite athlete who’s not a long distance runner have forearms that are bigger than his upper arms?

What "new" offense? Did they secretly fire Klein and bring in someone... better? Am I missing something? Do aggies just not even follow their own team?

 

Edit: I see now that they were clowning the aggies. In my defense, it's pretty hard to separate satire from actual aggy beliefs
