Will the Big X be left out of the playoff again this year?

[Eleazar]

The Big X as we know has been hamstrung by not having a conference championship game and by only having 10 teams, and with Baylor's loss this weekend, the Big X now has only one undefeated team left - Oklahoma State, who is due to face two top 10 teams in the next two weeks.

Will the Big X be without an argument to put a team in the playoff again this season, when they end up with multiple 1-loss teams and no way to differentiate them?

It says the Least is worse than the Big 12.

People struggle to overcome their bias when one of their teams is in a certain conference. Just how people are, they aren't objective when they are biased.

The Big X is not on par with the PAC-12.

I think the B1G is about the same. Nobody is talking about Iowa at all.

You should check the numbers. Sorry to let you down.

Florida is worth more than OU but Texas can buy Florida two times over. SEC is second rate. Numbers don't lie.

The people in your conference simply aren't worth enough.

Keep hearing the alums with money want to move back to a "midwestern" conference. The absence of Kansas on the schedule has lead many to lobby to come back to the Big 12.

Not sure they'd take you now knowing what the campus situation is though.

So I really can't understand your point about "bias" at all.

The $EC is the worst they've been in a long time.

The Pac12 isn't terrible it just has no great teams this year. It has 4 or 5 really good teams that beat up on each other and issues like drunk coaches and injuries to QBs.

More lies from Bambi. He does not have one shred of proof to back up this claim.

And given that KU had a grad student go on a hunger strike, and there are calls for student leadership to resign due to racism concerns....I am not sure KU has any room to be talking about anything going on other campuses.

I know you're not that stupid.

lol, he quit because no one cared.

We don't have the problems you guys do.

A few kids got together last week and yelled things at the chancellor and made themselves look like idiots. That's been the extent of the "issues".

So if Iowa wins out, they have to be in even if they face michst instead of ohst. That leaves the final spot for an unbeaten okst, or 1 loss ND or OU.

[tk13]

Iowa is definitely in if they win out. I still think if Notre Dame is even in the conversation, they'll be in. OU or Oklahoma State will have to run it up on their opponents to have a chance. Doesn't matter how many numbers and formulas you throw at it. The amount of money that'll be made by having Notre Dame in the playoffs will be hard to resist.

[Saul Good]

Condi Rice and company don't give a shit about how much money the playoffs bring in. If OSU wins out, they are in.

[Bambi]

It will all come down to Bedlam. The committee head basically said it on live TV.

Yeah, Notre Dame with only one loss against the best team in the country or Oklahoma State with 0 losses. Either team deserves to be in. But how do you explain the one that gets left out? How can you say Alabama deserves to be in?

The playoff system is better, but still has issues. One things certain, the next few weeks of college football will be fun to watch.

How about a 1 loss big ten team? If Ohio st beats msu the loses to michigan, then beats Iowa in the championship game? I doubt a 1 loss Iowa team gets in, but if they lose @ Nebraska then beat Ohio st?
