So is TNT still a madman for saying Big 12 only gets one team in to the CFP?

TNT

Mr. Belding

Whew. He was afraid people would say yes. He is not a madman but a "good" boy

TNT

No. Nine of the twelve spots will go to the SEC and Big 10. So stupid.

Notre Dame will get one, so 8 of the 12 will go to SEC/B1G

If that doesn’t fire up the team against ASU, we don’t deserve it anyway.

Apparently the Big 12's new tv deal is a big win.

Notre Dame at #6 and BYU at #14 makes sense

They have brand. We don’t. We need to build it. That’s my point. Nobody cares

We have a brand. I don’t buy it. It is deeper than that.

So their loss to Oregon is better than beating two ranked teams?

Exactly. The CFP committee can shove a beefy 5 up their collective butts.

Yeah, outside Oregon their schedule is crap.

Right, it's basically a CCG play-in game. Just double checking its true for ASU

ASU controls destiny no more or less than BYU and CU

Because they've crushed it since.

Their offense scores.

Beggar

So why is only a great O looked at as a positive. What about a dominant D like

Their D has been pretty good too. But in the end, it's brand bias

Our bad loss is more recent. Maybe if we go and score 66 points like they did

NIU loss is way worse than KU loss.

Yep. But they get a pass because it was earlier and they have dominated crap
