Obviously, there is overlap but we will see all teams that undeniably belong. Instead of the debate about leaving out the undefeated ACC champ, we are arguing over the #12 seed and whether 2-loss or 3-loss teams - with one or more bad losses - should get the bid.
I have little doubt that if BYU was 11-1 right now that we would still control our destiny.
If I remove my blue goggles, it's amazing how 2-6 Kansas came in and absolutely wrecked the Big 12's playoff position. Had the top teams handled Kansas, we're looking at TWO top-10 11-1 teams in the Big 12 championship game and 10-2 ASU and 10-2 Colorado contending for the #12 spot.
