2022 TCU as a big ten team. They will get bludgeoned as soon as they play a competent team

They have a bunch of 22-23 year olds like Indiana last year

If the coaching is good, they'll be cagey. The extra years mean a lot.

Are they title contenders? No. They are a really good team though. They play great D and run the ball well. They can afford losing the starting QB and still keep rolling because of it. They remind me of Indiana in Cignetti's 1st year, very disciplined and hard nosed team that got an easy draw from the Big Ten schedule, but they'll handle the lesser teams they play and make the playoffs because of it. Will get exposed once they play a legit contender though but Chesney is a great coach, I'm a fan.

TCU beat a legit Michigan team that was cheating then got their shite kicked by UGA. UCLA is closer to last year's James Madison than that TCU team.

Real how? They are undefeated. Even if it’s a cupcake schedule that has to matter

Which team was competent? Are you saying Michigan that year wasn’t competent or that the only competent team was UGA?

No one is good in the big 10 this year. Osu and Indiana are awful

A 9-3 SEC team will make it because that team will have freaking earned it.

So many teams will have 2 loses.

The precedent has been set, the CFP committee will put in a 10-2 random Big12 team before a 9-3 SEC team

Really? Because the Big12 got 1 team in last year and their 10-2 team BYU was left out.
