Nothing to gain by adding anyone. No embarrassments similar to what other conferences are currently experiencing (ala Rutgers).
With the payouts we're seeing for a 10 team league there's really no need to add more schools. Future is bright for the Big 12. Good luck everybody else. |

That could be...at least for now. Do you think that will change if/when they get left out of the playoffs for teams with the same number of losses but a CCG win?
I mean, there are five major conferences, and four of them play a CCG. Do you really think the other conferences aren't going to set things up to reward the extra win? There is zero chance that the Big 12 would have had a representative in a playoff this year.

Besides. It will probably be going to 8 teams soon anyway. A four team playoff doesn't make a lot of sense. Texas already has said they pretty much won't even be recognizing a 4 team playoff champ. |

I agree that it will likely go to eight, but it will be several years first. Zero chance that a Big 12 team makes it last year, and that's with an undefeated Ohio State being left out.

Hell...KSU was ranked behind a 2 loss Georgia team.

Well, with last year you had a fluke with Notre Dame being undefeated. Had they been their usual self (like they will be this year and for years to come) their would have been a Big 12 team in. It was a great year for Big 12 football top to bottom but no they didn't have a team like Alabama (surprise, no one did).

The Big 12 wouldn't have made it in 2010, either...not counting TCU at the time.

If any conference doesn't have a deserving team in the top 4 then they shouldn't have a spot. There will be five conferences plus all the other schools in America. Obviously someone will be left out every year. A Champ game isn't going to determine that.

Let's say that some slapdick mid-major runs the table next year. Then, let's say that Alabama, Oregon, Ohio State, and FSU go 12-1, while TCU goes 11-1. Any chance in hell that TCU gets in?

I'm not putting down the conference at all. I'm actually really impressed at how well they came out of this. I want it to do well, and I'll admit that I'm biased in that I want Cincy to get in. I think they are at a major disadvantage by being the only conference without a CCG.

But, if the scenario you put forth here happens then I think we'll see a push to 8 sooner than later. You're going to run into legal issues right away if an "undefeated" mid major doesn't get a chance to play for the NC. That's just what America is. Realignment isn't keeping anyone out. It never will. The courts will make sure of that. |
