Texas A&M moves to No. 3 in AP poll

  • October 20, 2025

(KBTX) – The Texas A&M football team rose to No. 3 in Sunday’s AP Top 25, marking the first time the Aggies have entered the top 3 since 1995.

The Aggies defeated Arkansas 45-42 at Razorback Stadium Saturday and were aided by previous No. 3 Miami’s loss to Louisville Friday.

A&M also moved up to No. 3 in the USA Today Coaches Poll.

In 1995, the Aggies began the season No. 3 in the AP Top 25 and held the position through the first five polls of the campaign. A&M dropped to No. 9 after losing to then No. 7 Colorado.

Sunday marked the first time A&M moved into the No. 3 position during the course of the year since the week of Nov. 10, 1975. A&M began that season 10-0 and moved into the top 3 after defeating SMU, 36-3.

A&M honored that co-Southwest Conference championship team last week in the matchup against Florida, by wearing throwback uniforms from the era.

The Aggies are the only undefeated team remaining in the Southeastern Conference and one of six teams without a loss nationally. It is the first season the Aggies have started 7-0 since 1994.

A&M is the highest-ranked SEC team, with Alabama coming in at No. 4. Five SEC teams reside in the top 10: No. 3 A&M (7-0), No. 4 Alabama (6-1), No. 5 Georgia (6-1), No. 8 Ole Miss (6-1) and No. 10 Vanderbilt (6-1).

Ahead of A&M sits No. 1 Ohio State (7-0) and No. 2 Indiana (7-0). In a weekend full of upsets, every position in this week’s poll changed except for No. 1 Ohio State.

The Aggies travel to No. 20 LSU next Saturday for a 6:30 kick and have No. 15 Missouri and No. 22 Texas as ranked teams remaining on the schedule.
