Oregon Punching First Ticket to Playoff

[CoxMustangFan]

Remind about how TCU did head to head with Baylor and then you can talk score comparisons, like Kansas.

Doesn't matter, we're doing this figure skating style. Congrats to the Toads on their playoff bid.

it ain't over until it's over. TCU needs to hope Baylor does not blow out KSU and both TCU & Baylor REALLY need to hope Ohio State doesn't beat Wisconsin convincingly. The big school bias looms large and I'm sure some on that committee are just looking for justification to have OSU leapfrog the Big XII schools today

That, and OSU played a 13th game ... Against a top 15 team.

I think there's a very good chance that both TCU and Baylor get left out.

Ohio State had that bad loss against VT. They had the worst loss of any 1 loss team.

It also happened in the first game after they lost their starting QB. After one game the new QB settled in and they have won.

I think Ohio State is in. This game is ridiculous. I know I'm impressed as hell. How is this their third-string QB?

So they're going to drop after winning by 52 (and winning a conference title), one week after jumping up a spot by winning by 38?

Yep

ESPN is pushing OSU hard right now. The Big XII is about to get it in the short and curlies.

Yep

I actually think keeping the Big 12 schools out would go against the figure skating analogy. One of them (TCU in particular w/ no bad loss) might have an argument over Ohio State, but not a foolproof one. I think the lack of "One True Champion" is going to hurt the Big 12 worse than expected. We'll see.

I think big12 gets snubbed. Then they have to add teams. We think it's us then get peruna's law'd.

The fact that the committee has been fellating TCU for weeks only to have them be jumped after they won by 52 would confirm the figure skating analogy.
