The Texas A&M Aggies continue their ascent up the AP Poll, moving up one spot to No. 15 in the Week 11 edition of the rankings. The Aggies pulled off an impressive rout on the road in the SEC West this week, beating a ranked Mississippi State team in convincing fashion. It was perhaps their best all-around performance of the season. They'll certainly need to replicate that effort next week, as they head to Tuscaloosa for a game against No. 1 Alabama.
The Crimson Tide needed a drive in the final minutes to come back on the road against LSU, narrowly edging the Tigers to stay undefeated and keep their lock on the top spot. It will be the ultimate test for Kevin Sumlin's squad, but hopefully they catch the Tide roughed up after a brutal back-and-forth game with LSU. The Aggies are one of six SEC teams in the top 15 of the poll. Here's the entire AP Poll:
