The Longhorns moved up two spots to No. 14, and the loss dropped the Aggies out of the top five, down four spots to No. 7. Texas could have used some chaos above them in the poll to help strengthen its case for the College Football Playoff, but other than the Aggies, the only team ranked ahead of the Longhorns to lose was Michigan. The Wolverines lost to top-ranked Ohio State 27-9.
