CFP rankings release show: Where to watch, live stream for Texas A&M football
Texas A&M's (7-2, 5-1 SEC) 2024 season hit a bump in the road amid the Aggies improbable seven-game winning streak, running into the buzzsaw inside a backs Williams-Brice Stadium, as South Carolina dismantled the Aggies 44-20 behind a 24-0 second half run by the Gamecocks.
Despite the loss, the Aggies are still tied for first in the SEC standings, with the Georiga Bulldogs at 5-1 heading into the second bye week of the season. While A&M's chances to make the 12-team College Football Playoff remain intact, Tuesday's first official rankings reveal will paint a clearer picture.
However, Monday's news that star running back Le'Veon Moss will miss the rest of the season placed a hole in A&M's offense as the junior leads the Aggies with 765 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns through nine games.
With Moss shelved, junior back Amari Daniels steps in as the lead back, while senior EJ Smith will now have an even more significant role in the backfield.

Texas A&M CFP rankings projection
Texas A&M moved down to No. 15 in the newest AP Top 25 rankings after losing to South Carolina, so expect the Aggies to be on the outside looking in. If A&M wins out, including a win over the Texas Longhorns, head coach Mike Elko and his team are almost guaranteed a spot in the playoffs, on paper, at least.
How many teams are in the College Football Playoff 2024?
