Texas A&M named among teams with title potential for 2026

Summary

Texas A&M is ranked 13th among 16 teams that could contend for the National Title in 2026, according to analyst CFBudge. The Aggies are set to begin their season in less than two months, having returned 65% of their 2025 roster, including starting quarterback Marcel Reed. They also added 17 players from the transfer portal during the offseason, bolstering their lineup. Texas A&M aims to improve on its previous season's performance and advance to the College Football Playoff, though they are not widely regarded as national contenders. Coach Mike Elko and staff are preparing for SEC media days to address these expectations.
