They really did fuck themselves even if he's wrong. I guess they could move FSU up since they beat #11 but how are they going to throw out #3 after winning 55-3? And they're just suddenly going to move Baylor up because of head to head even though TCU beat KSU by more?
Why did the big xii do a split title? was head to head not the first tie breaker?
Did they just change the rules because the narrative would fucked if the big xii champ was left out in favor of the 2nd place team?

Yeah, they're saying that they're can be split champions because they saw TCU was in the top 4 and were afraid their conference was going to be left out.
Lol. Remember the logic circle jerk with Texas/ou/tech where they went to the sixth made up tie breaker? At least now they got rid of all attempts of legitimacy.
They were so close to a similar situation this year. If KSU had beaten Auburn and Baylor and Baylor had beaten WVU, all would've been 11-1 with 1 conference loss.

Aaaaaaaand just like that Bucky makes Arizona's loss look not so bad. I mean, shit, we put up more of a fight the last two times we got shut out.
If FSU gets left out of the playoffs I'm going to make ur post my signature. Going undefeated in college football has never been a guarantee of anything. Bart Scott for the mongmitte wheels to turn.
From a selfish perspective, if TCU gets dropped because of lack of conference championship game, then I bet the Big XII expands immediately, grabbing the closest available 2 teams. You know Hamilton gonna schmooze if that happens.

Blah blah blah. Enjoy the sun bowl
Alamo Bowl, they ain't putting them in the Sun Bowl 2 years in a row, c'mon mang
To go back in time to this post.. That type of block really needs to be taken out of the game if this 'player safety' thing is really going to happen. Theres absolutely no reason to come full speed and light someone up, especially peeling back like that. You should never be blocking with that type of force going back towards the line of scrimmage.
They don't need to expand to get a conference championship game.
They will doe. Two sets of 5 creates a bunch of trog problems with scheduling.
Tbh I think this committee is somehow accidentally doing what we wanted. Punishing fsu for being undefeated but looking like total shit. They should play Marshall in the Marshalls bowl while real powerhouses duke it out. Fsu best player is their Mexican savant kicker
I would just have the top 2 teams in the standings play each other (ex: Baylor/TCU again this year) but I'm not sure the Big XII would understand how tie breakers work and we'd have 6 teams on the field for the CCG.
What exactly was he supposed to do? He blocked him. He didn't go low, he didn't lead with his head, he wasn't going back towards his own goal line. He had his hands inside, head turned, shoulder in front, he didn't launch or leave his feet in any way. That was a clinic block.
In that scenario, why should Baylor have to play TCU again when they already beat them? That's the absurd part, in a round robin conference you don't need a conference championship game.
Adding one is stupid.
Literally no part of either the NCAA or NFL peel back rules were violated on that play. In fact, the rules specifically mention THAT type of block as being legal. Near shoulder to the front of an opponent's body is a LEGAL block.
Not to mention the player initiated the block was a not aligned inside the tackle box at the snap of the ball to begin with, negating any peel back block violation to begin with.
When the hell did I say it was illegal?
The ESPN wheels are turning to make it:
1. Bammer
2. Oregon
3. FSU
4. Ohio State
That's my real prediction.
Can't wait for the explanation of how a team who goes into the weekend ranked #3, wins 55-3, and gets dropped to #6 (Might as well put them below Baylor now that Baylor beat Kstate, because head to head). Especially when the team ranked below them barely wins (FSU should be ranked #1 all along as the only undefeated team, IMO, but still)

Uh, maybe the part where you said that type of block really needs to be taken out of the game and then proceeded to explain a rule that already exists in both the NCAA and NFL rulebook? That play didn't fulfill any requirements of the peel back block rule.
I know Florida's players tend to block their own teammates harder than they block the other team, but it's really okay to block your opponent hard and with force.

PLAY LA BAMBA BABY
seriously over this current corching staff at OU. they're never going to come close to competing for a big 12-2-2+2 title again, let alone a playoff berth. clean house and start over. i don't even care if they suck for a decade, but at least there will be a legit reason.

Trade you Mike Riley for Bob Stoops. Straight up.

only if we get frost and the faux pelini twitter account in the deal. stoops wouldn't win at nebraska, either
You can have Faux Pelini but you'll have to negotiate with Oregon for Frost, since it doesn't sound like we're going to get him either. Can I interest you in some corn instead? Or perhaps Lil Red?

I'm not even sure who Baylor lost to, therefore TCU is in.

Man, I hate Jameis as much as anyone, but I still don't get the narrative that the ACC is a terrible conference. They kicked the shit out of the SEC in head to head games last week and the SEC EastChampion lost to Indiana for Christ's sake. FSU is in, ranked #1 for going undefeated in a conference that is better than the SEC.
TCU is in, ranked #2. The only game they lost was to the #6 team in the country. No other one loss team has a loss to a team in the top ten. Baylor is out as head to head is meaningless. If you don't beleive me; ask 1993 Notre Dame.
Oregon is in, ranked #3 as they have the next best loss.
Let's face it, the SEC is not very good this year, with the exception of Bama. Bama is in ranked #4.
tOSU is out as their loss is the worst of the one loss teams.
this shit is easy. I should be on the committee.
