    "At the time we played them, we beat a Top 5, a Top 10, and a Top 15 team....I don't think there's another resume out there that can beat that".

    Well, Art.....Mississippi State beat 3 Top 10 teams....in a row. Touche?

    I feel bad for Baylor. They're a great example of why the playoff needs to be 8 instead of 4. A 1-loss Big 12 team should have a shot to play for a title.

    In a sweeping gesture of goodwill, the committee will make Baylor #5 tomorrow and TCU #6 to keep the head to head loss from being an issue.

    What goodwill is that for TCU fans to drop them from 3 to 6 after winning 55-3? Not happening. 1-4 stay the same.

    There's always going to be someone in their shoes. It sucks, but it is what it is.

    Hypothetical...

    Let's say the sec didn't have a championsip. How much weight would our loss to bama weigh into the committee's decision between us and bama

    Baylor could have scheduled a OOC team besides Northwestern St, Buffalo, and SMU. They could have beaten WV like many others did. I feel no sympathy for Baylor or Ohio St.

    So tcu beating Minnesota is more impressive than Baylor beating tcu?

    So if we were in the same spot, would you hate on our non conference schedule?

    Exactly. Baylor deserves to be in. There shouldn't be a committee. The BCS formula should decide the four teams

    It's always going to be something but what they need to do really I'd go to 8. Give the conference champions an auto bid and then have 3 wildcards. Betting that comes sooner than later.

    To me there is very little difference in the body or work between OSU, Baylor and TCU

    That would be funny. Ohio State probably deserves to be in top 4, doubt it happens though.

    You do realize when tcu scheduled Minnesota they had won a whopping 4 games that year right?

    You have to look at it in a vacuum. Compare resumes side by side. TCU lost to the #5 team, Baylor lost to an unranked team. TCU has a tougher SOS by playing a good Minnesota team. H2H is an easy "argument" but when comparing side by side resumes TCU is by far the most deserving.

    Baylor beat the #3 team?

    when looking at H2H you also have to consider the difference home field makes if going side by side. I think that's why OSU is getting penalized so harshly for the VT loss. Not only is VT not that great, but it was at home.

    TCU was on the road.

    The committee won't really be able to win no matter what they do.
