That's not the point. FSU almost lost that game, they didn't make a statement like Ohio State did.

So finishing the regular season 13-0 isn't "making a statement"?

and in the process completed their second undefeated season in row while winning the ACC. So, again, yes.

It sounds like you're giving them extra credit for what they did last year.

Any more moronic questions from you TCU apologists?

For the record, my beef is with the Committee, I'm not a TCU fan. Also, only a genuine moron would take last year's results into consideration.

Baylor has the biggest gripe of all. They were ranked about OSU all year. And they beat TCU straight up.

do you think FSU's win was impressive enough to justify jumping them over TCU?

I don't have an issue with it. GT is a good team and I don't think FSU needed to blow them out to justify a spot in the playoff, especially since they're the only undefeated team left.

So finishing this season undefeated is now considered last year's results?

I said second straight undefeated season as a way of saying, you know, they finished 2014 unblemished.

Putting aside my TCU blinders...

I totally agree with this.

They would roll FSU and give Bama a good game. But it would be TCU all over again if they played Oregon, which would be fun to watch.

I think people tend to lose sight of the issue in these type threads, so I will reiterate the topic outline.

Less than a week ago (5 days to be exact) the esteemed members of the CFB playoff committee met and placed teams in a sequence of order for selection.

TCU based on whatever true criteria was utilized was given the third place slot in the hierarchy.

TCU won a ball game between that meeting and this one today by 50+ points.

TCU was downgraded from the #3 slot into the #6 position.

How is this possible?

If this same thing would have happened last year, you would not even be in the discussion.

Be thankful that changes have been made to include you in the discussion.

Now please, stop complaining.

Well, you didn't say that earlier.

No, both Baylor and TCU are considered co-champions.

Who the frick is complaining?

It's a message board, bruh. If you don't want to read other people's opinions, then go talk to yourself in a mirror.

The best thing on TCU's resume was a loss.

The teams behind them were upgraded based on their results against better opposition this weekend.

The TCU people and the conference people are sure making a big whine about it.

Like I said, be thankful that you are even relevant.

You beat a very bad Iowa St team. OSU put an arse whipping on a ranked Nebraska team. In my mind, that's the difference. Well, that and your idiot commissioner.

Some are, obviously...it's to be expected.

That said, the Baylor base, including Briles, has been 10X worse.
