Do you not understand that last year you would not even be in the discussion?

I have no idea how you, Baylor fans, TCU fans, etc. can even feel intelligent complaining about this.

You mean teams like Wisconsin who had a paper ranking and laid a giant egg....

Sorry I can't buy that one in a sane world. You drop a team who just a few days before you thought was a solid third slot team?

Really....

This. TCU people are disappointed, but Baylor fans are aghast for some reason.

If Baylor wants to be in the playoff this season, don't play the worst OOC schedule in the FBS or don't lose to WVU by 2 TDs. Avoid either one of those and they're probably in.

Ok, so what are you doing here? Do you think they should be in? Are you a TCU fan?

Oh ok. Because you have no valid response, so you make a stupid comment by pretending to misinterpret what I said.

Yeah Wisconsin sucked on Saturday night, but do you disagree that they are a better team than Iowa State?

Jeff Long even said today that 3-6 were more like 3a, 3b, 3c and 3d to the committee. And again, it doesn't matter what the rankings were a few days ago. Clean slate after Saturday.

Response to what?

lol.. I mean, TCU was 4-8 last year, the year that you're referring to, say of course we would not have been in the mix! Jesus!

If you would like to be more clear in your argument then I would be more than happy to address your point, but if you bring up a prior year, then I can only assume that your argument is based off the facts of that year. Thus, that is what I will respond to.

You might want to get them checked. Have you looked closely @ RummelTiger's avatar?

Rummel, weren't you adamant on Friday that the committee wasn't going to drop TCU?

Discussing a topic.

Of course I do, but I'm not complaining that they're not in. OSU, Baylor, and TCU are so close - I can see how the committee ranked them the way that they did.

Yes, and an alum.

If the same system was still in place this year, meaning if the BCS was in place this year, and the same on-field results occurred, your team would most likely (assuming the polls this year are mostly accurate to what the BCS would have been) be 3-4 spots out of playing for a championship.

How do you feel that this new system gives you a better chance to play for a championship?

Meh, I was trolling. I loved getting the Baylor people all riled up!

Well, it obviously doesn't considering we were two spots out. And I never said that the new system did give us a better chance, so...

TCU got jobbed.

Buckeyes had an easier schedule.

Guess the B10 influence in killing the BCS has clearly paid off

Bring back the computers
