Loser: Texas A&M (Unranked)

The Aggies came into the season in the top ten, but they have fallen out of the top 25 altogether and it is only going to get worse. Alabama comes to town next Saturday night and that just looks like an awful spot for the Aggies right now.

The problems remain the same for Texas A&M on offense. They have no explosiveness at the receiver position and no consistency at quarterback. Their defense is pretty good but against a team like Alabama, that might not matter if they can’t put any points on the board. It has been a disappointing season for the Aggies and it might get even worse before it is over.

Loser: UCLA (Unranked)

After having a great win in week one over LSU, UCLA has sputtered in recent weeks and any hopes of a darkhorse bid for the playoff are gone after Saturday. UCLA could not stop Arizona State and now the Bruins are behind the Sun Devils in the Pac-12 South. UCLA still has a chance to have a nice season, but they might have been a bit overrated at this point.

The defense for the Bruins is what let them down late Saturday night. The offense and the running game have been lethal all season, but they could not keep up against Arizona State. Keep an eye on the Sun Devils as the season goes on to possibly make some noise late in the year.
