Well if a team goes 0-12 but losses every game by 1 point does it matter?
obviously, if you're comparing them to another 0-12 team.

Baylor and TCU are both 11-1. One team beat the other one and destroyed OU on the road. The other lost to the other one and barely beat OU at home. BUT WAIT they played Minnesota BODY OF WORK!!!!!!!! 
so you're argument is that only 2 games of the 12 mattered?

I would be furious if the committee ignores head to head.

How many games did TCU lose without their stating qb? Did TCU win their conference?

It's time for TCU to be quiet......they are out of the picture. They lost head to head to Baylor. Baylor is the conference champion, based on tie-breaker, regardless of what the Big 12 says. The committee said along they would "heavily weigh" conference champions and by every definition, except the Big 12's, Baylor is the conference champion.

Before Trickett got hurt they were a legit top 20 team and far from terrible. Did you watch them play before he got hurt?

No but to act like TCU destroyed all competition while Baylor struggled is false. Baylor won the head to head and when everything else is equal this should break that equality.

When the only difference in schedule is Minnesota, I don't see how anything other than head to head can be used.

Even though we lost to 11-1 Co-Champ Baylor, we beat the Mighty Gophers of Minnesota!
