Who has Oklahoma beaten so far? A ridiculously overrated Tennessee and West Virginia squads? A Baylor team playing with their backup QB?

You might miss a good team in a given year, but you have an equal chance to miss the free wins that Big X teams are living off. Look at Oklahoma. They are sitting at 6 conference wins. 4 of those wins were freebies - they have come against teams that have 4 conference wins combined. Two of those teams are winless. Their only quality win is Baylor, and Baylor seems to be a paper tiger - lost to the first ranked team they played. The badness of their loss is much greater than the quality of their one quality win. Oklahoma will probably finish the year having only played 2 teams that will finish the season ranked. So I don't buy that round robin scheduling makes things harder at all. |

Nope. Lost to a bad Texas team. The whole idea behind using a committee to decide the 4 team playoff was that every game counts. Right now, Oklahoma has the worst loss off all the contenders.

Would any of us be surprised if the Big XII(-4, +2) gets left out? If Oklahoma DOES make it with a terrible loss to a god awful Texas on their resume then it's time to start criticizing the selection process, especially considering what other one loss teams (and possibly some two loss teams) would be left out.
If they DON'T make it in this year, I fully expect them to make a full court push to getting schools like Houston and Louisville into the conference. |
