The Impending Apocalypse: Sign #937

Texas A&M is ranked #13 in the AP preseason college basketball poll, ahead of every other team in the Big 12 South*, and one place behind perennial powerhouse Duke.

At least the writer of the linked story also recognizes the implausibility of the situation, reminding us that this is the first time A&M has been ranked since 1980.

*Thanks to Gunner at Target Centermass for pointing out the error in my original post, which overlooked the overall third place spot held by Kansas, which, the last time I checked, was still in the Big 12. (Actually, I have a second-cousin who plays football for Kansas.)

About that "ahead of every other team in the Big 12" part, you may want to take another look at the number three team, sir.

Otherwise, I cannot believe I'm actually planning a trip to B-CS with a buddy for a bball game this year. That's quite a change.

My bad, Gunner. I meant to type "Big 12 South." I'll post a correction.
