      Another point I'm seeing brought up:

      The committee went with tOSU because they have the following/tradition/better ratings... If that's the case (I don't buy that line of thinking personally), why not go for TCU... They can then say that the "Little Guy" can make it in this system... Boise/TCU would have never gotten this in the old system... Why not play that card if you have it in your hand?

        Big 12 Commissioner is talking himself in circles.

        First he said he wasn't in the room when it was decided that TCU and Baylor would be declared co-champs. Really? The conference commissioner wasn't in the room for a decision that important on the conference's biggest sport?

        Then he said he misspoke on media day about "one true champion." Sir, c'mon, don't call us stupid. Your conference put up an entire marketing campaign around what you said, if you misspoke you never would've have allowed that to become the slogan of the league.

          And we learned over time to only consider the final ranking, right? Right?

              Pretty much what everyone thought.
              I wonder how much of a cluster******** there would have been if Missouri had somehow squeaked by Alabama? That would put Baylor and TCU in the conversation, along with a 2 loss SEC champ in Missouri that didn't exactly win convincingly, a 2 loss Alabama, and you could have arguments for a few other squads as well. For those of us wanting Chaos so that they're more likely to expand the playoffs, that would have been ideal. Darn pity it didn't.

                I agree with OSU being in, but FSU should be swapped out I don't care about their being undefeated and defending champs. I just don't understand how you justify OSU in and not TCU/Baylor over FSU.

                  people might not want to believe it but sec gets shut out if bama lost yesterday.

                  as for fsu...leave them out entirely? please. at least they played ok state, florida, nd non conference. not great teams but baylor's non conference was an absolute joke. no point in doing any of this if a team like fsu is left out entirely.

                      They're not shutting out an undefeated P5 conference champion, regardless of last year/margin of victory/etc.

                      Thinking they would is utter idiocy.

                        People here know how I feel about the Criminoles, but if you go undefeated in a Power 5 conference, the ONLY way you don't get in is if there are undefeated champions in all 5 of the power conferences.

                        At the end of the day, I'm fine with the 4 teams that got in. There is certainly a strong argument for each of Ohio State, Baylor, and TCU. At least all of the teams in consideration were champions of their conference...even both of the One True Co-Champions.

                              Hahahaha. Omfg. The committee jokingly discussed making a decision facto big 12 championship game by putting TCU and Baylor in the Cotton Bowl.

                                Not really sure how MS St jumps three spots over MSU without playing... but I don't really care. Orange vs GaTech and Cotton vs Baylor is about the same to me, plus it's another game for the coaching staff to try to figure out a high powered offense before next year when we have to play Oregon and OSU again. GaTech would've just been preparing for Air Force.
