Projected College Football Playoff round for Texas A&M

01 · The NewsWhat Happened

Cameron Ohnysty reports that an early postseason forecast places Texas A&M in the first round of the College Football Playoff and also lists the Aggies for the Citrus Bowl. The projection does not represent a postseason selection, and Texas A&M has not been assigned either destination. No projected record, playoff seed, opponent, or game date is provided. The report identifies Mike Elko among the Texas A&M figures connected to the broader coverage, but the bowl forecast itself is the news. For now, this is an August prediction attached to a team with an entirely unfinished season.
