Looking at the SEC, Texas A&M had a historic 11-1 regular season, good for one of the best records in the nation. However it featured in-conference wins against seven out of the nine worst teams in the SEC; and every team they beat had a conference win percentage of .500 or worse.

The Aggies season would end in disappointing fashion as they lost twice in a row, against in-state rival the Texas Longhorns 27-17 and in the first round of the College Football Playoff against the Miami Hurricanes 10-3.

A&M arguably only faced three impressive teams all season (Miami, Notre Dame, Texas), and its only win of the three came in the form of a controversial one-point victory over ND in Week 2.

TAMU is one of multiple glaring examples of how massive conferences allow teams to waltz unscathed through their conferences thanks to scheduling issues.

The Corey Hetherman-led defense limited the Buckeyes to zero points in the first half as the Hurricanes jumped out to a 14-0 lead.

One of those key plays featured sixth-year redshirt senior defensive back Keionte Scott. 

Early in the second quarter, Sayin looked for Brandon Innis behind the line of scrimmage. Scott read the play right away, jumping the route and taking the ball the other way 72 yards to put Miami up two scores.

“It was on film for sure,” Scott said postgame. “And then as soon as the tight end motioned, shot my shot, and the ball went in my hands.”

Joseph Torres graduated from the University of Miami with a degree in musical theatre in 2022. Nearly four years later, he’s back in town with a lead role in the national tour of Broadway’s “&Juliet.”

He plays Romeo in the dazzling show at the Adrienne Arsht Center from Dec. 30 to Jan. 4, 2026

Though Torres credits much of his post-college success to his time at the U, when he first auditioned for collegiate musical theatre programs, UM wasn’t on his list.

Krenzel looked to the endzone on a fade route to Chris Gamble and in tight coverage cornerback Glenn Sharpe knocked away the pass. Line judge Derrick Bowers signaled incomplete. The game was over. 

The Hurricanes had won their second straight national title, and Miami players rushed the field to celebrate.

But as they celebrated a yellow piece of cloth laid on the field and changed history. 

Seconds after the play was blown dead, Terry Porter, the back judge, threw a flag for pass interference on Sharpe.

The championship that lay in Miami’s hands was snatched away and hung in the balance as Ohio State went on to tie up the game and take the lead in second overtime.

Because the Cotton Bowl is at AT&T Stadium — home of the Dallas Cowboys and a neutral site — there are more student tickets available compared to the Texas A&M game which took place at Kyle Field, home of the Aggies. 

“For the Texas A&M game, we rewarded students who requested tickets and had attended at least seven of our eight 2025 home games. That resulted in approximately 40 student tickets distributed,” said the University in a statement to The Hurricane.

FIRE’s ranking gave numbers and language to a concept that has a particularly dangerous power to warp communities through silence: the erosion of free speech is an effective tool for alienation.

On a national level, freedom of expression for university faculty is being challenged. On Oct. 1, the White House sent the “Compact for Academic Excellence” to nine academic institutions, detailing a list of demands to be followed to receive preferential treatment in federal funding, with one acutely affecting faculty.

“Signatories shall maintain institutional neutrality at all levels of their administration,” the document said. “This requires policies that all university employees, in their capacity as university representatives, will abstain from actions or speech relating to societal and political events except in cases in which external events have a direct impact upon the university.”

If signed, universities would effectively trade the voices, opinions and perspectives of their faculty and staff for funding, perpetuating an idea that one’s thoughts can be bought.

As of now, no university has signed the compact.
