According to the CFP show tonight on ESecPN, Alabama's most impressive win was against a ranked Texas A&M team (at #24). However, they have been saying all along that Clemson has ZERO wins against a ranked team? Did I miss the fact there were two different Texas A&M schools? Didn't we play the same Texas A&M team Bama did (only that they were ranked 12th when they played us)? Inquiring minds want to know.
Edit: Link to the screenshot for those non-believers and the ones giving me the thumb down:

The standards set forth for Alabama are not the same set of standards for the rest of college football. Also, the standards set forth for Clemson apparently are even below that for the rest of college football. Talk about an uphill battle or having one arm tied behind your back.
It makes what Dabo and our Tigers accomplish that much more impressive.

I guess someone didn't appreciate the light sarcasm in my post and countered with a thumbs down.

A&M is not ranked. Maybe they said the most impressive win was against an unranked A&M and you missed the "un" part.

ESPN probably has A&M ranked in one of their many

metric rankings such as SOR, RPI, SOS, etc, etc. They seem to come out with a new one weekly to further their SEC propaganda!

No. I did not miss the "un" part. I even paused it to look closer just to make sure I wasn't seeing things.
