4. Texas A&M Aggies

Another SEC team makes the list and this time, it's the Texas A&M Aggies.

Just slightly more overrated than Oklahoma, the Aggies didn't even make a bowl game last season and they'll be bringing in a brand-new coaching staff to try and turn things around. The fixes in College Station aren't going to be as quick and seamless as many experts are expecting and I feel like it may be a struggle foe Texas A&M to make a bowl game in year one of Mike Elko.

Is this a knock on Elko? Absolutely not. He's one of my favorite hires of the offseason and I think if anyone could turn a team around immediately, it's him. But Jimbo Fisher left him a mess.

Conner Weigman is a nice returning piece to lead the offense, but Texas A&M lost a lot this offseason, including former five-star receiver Evan Stewart who landed at Oregon.

Elko is bringing in a solid recruiting class and some impactful transfers, but I don't think we'll see Texas A&M go from bowl-less to top-15 team in the country this quickly. It's going to take time and those expecting the Aggies to be contenders in 2024 should temper those expectations.
