If you want to make the argument that beating up on the 'little sisters of the poor" earns you a trip to the playoffs you're certainly welcome to....

It's a bad argument..... and when that's pointed out you shouldn't get bent outta shape because it's really a horrible argument, but you're welcome to make it..... even though it's wrong

No, they didn't. They scored 17 points and won by 7 points against a texas team with an absolutely terrible offense. In what universe is that dominance?

The team I saw absolutely shut Texas down, physically whipped TX on the line of scrimmage, blanketed their WR's and stuffed their RBs. Dominated them on TX home turf. TX D played really well but TX couldn't move the ball on TCU. It was a beat down. If they win out, they'll be no worse than #3 in the final poll and could be #2. Their ticket is all but punched. Hope they lose to K St., but I doubt it will happen.

Bent out of shape? What are you talking about? Seems like you’re just looking for an argument

I'm not a "Horn's fan". TX was favored to beat TCU and they were dominated the entire game on their home turf. Their D is legit. The O is questionable, but TCU's D looked great.

I thought you were making the argument that TCU could beat up on lesser opponents and go undefeated and that makes them more deserving of going to the playoffs than a one loss team that played teams that were more competitive.

If I misunderstood that you thought beating 12 high school teams is better than a team that beat 11 upper level D1 teams but lost to one of them, then I apologize

I think we have the #2 or #3 team in the country and would beat TCU by 20. I just don’t think the committee can justify leaving them out unless they lose a game. They can’t treat the Big 12 like it’s the Conference USA... even though it kinda looks like Conference USA 🤣😂

Boys and girls , TN ain’t getting in the playoffs. Not because they don’t deserve it , it’s because they are truly disliked . As far as TCU and Oregon , they are gonna find a way to win tonight . Oregon will jump TN with a win sadly . It’s all about the media darlings .

Oregon - this aged well. Lost at home to Washington. I guess they will not be jumping us come Tuesday.

Texas does not have a terrible offense. Where did you get that idea? Their RB may be the top RB taken in the draft and they're currently 30th in the nation in offense.

They were probably a better team than TCU is now.

TCU has now beaten 5 ranked opponents. They aren't getting left out if they go undefeated. It's simply not happening.



Why are you fixated on TCU? Michigan and OSU have played far easier schedules and OSU barely snuck out a victory against a 1 win Northwestern team last week.
