3. Texas A&M Aggies

Jimbo Fisher is on the hot seat heading into the 2023 season and if a lot of fans got their way, he would be on his way out of College Station after a huge buyout.

But he’s back and he’s also bringing back a really talented roster.

Texas A&M was supposed to contend for an SEC title last year but the Aggies went just 5-7 and missed a bowl game. The 2022 season was supposed to be Fisher’s year to get back to the promised land after signing the best recruiting class of all time and having depth just about everywhere you looked.

But something just didn’t click.

Well, the offense should be far better with Conner Weigman leading the way and the defense should bounce back, especially with another top-notch recruiting class coming in along with a handful of talented transfers.

I’d be shocked if Texas A&M wasn’t back in contention in 2023.
