We probably can't hang with them this year but I fully expect 2016 in Ford to be a hell of a game.
Back off Warchild seriously.

If 2015's rules were in effect last year that trophy TCU has doesn't exist but the one in Waco does.

I just remember a 4th quarter meltdown in one bowl game and an absolute [deleted] kicking in another to end last football season

None of that disputes what I said, frogs wouldn't have a trophy under current rules.

Bowls against different teams means diddly squat when the current rules make it clear their "title" would not be considered equal going forward. The Big 12 rules now say it, the committee ultimately said it, and the scoreboard said it.

Why would I sing a different tune? It was the rule. OU was co champ in 2012 and KSU/Snyder didn't spend months whining and crying that OU got a trophy. Only Briles and Baylor dorks would be so butt-hurt over this matter.

In a true round robin every game matters. Every game. To baylor dorks, don't get your donkey spanked by a .500 WVU team and then pretend it doesn't matter.

OU didn't pretend they deserved a higher postseason destination than the team that beat them.

The BCS was supposed to take the best 4 teams PERIOD. Alleged non-existent Big 12 tie breaker is irrelevant to BCS Bowl. Strong argument that overall TCU had better team because they lost on the road by only 3 in game they appeared to be better team for 55 minutes and Baylor laid an egg in West Virginia. TCU played better in its one road loss against a much better team than Baylor did. Under the NCAA standard TCU should have gotten bid over Baylor

If you cannot use head to head as a tie breaker you cannot have a playoff for the championship. Let's just say Ole Miss was National Champ last year because they looked good in their Bowl game. Or go ahead and give it to TCU based on your argument above and Ohio State losing to lowly VT.
