please explain how TTech doesn't belong in the conversation. they had 1 loss and beat UT, ya know?
I'm with you. The only explanation I've heard is some crap about the Texas-Oklahoma game being neutral site, Texas-Texas Tech being at Texas Tech, and Texas Tech being blown out by Oklahoma.
I actually don't have a problem with the Big 12 3-way tiebreaker that people complain about. If it were only a 2-way tie and the 2 had played each other, then I would have a problem with it. But that wasn't the situation. The tiebreaker puts the decision in the hands of the voters (2/3 of the decision anyway).
I think the Big Ten even went ahead and adopted a similar rule for the upcoming season to determine the conference's Rose Bowl representative when 2 teams with identical records that haven't played each other tie for the conference championship. Their old rule was just to pick the team whose last Rose Bowl berth happened longer ago. Now that was a stupid rule.

Actually, I think first, it was who played the least 1-AA teams (which is also extremely stupid), then if it was still tied, the last to the Rose Bowl.
