with their post playoff melt. Of course when your head coach acts like a bitch the fans will follow suit.
The out of conference schedule was full fledged sissy. No other way to spin it.

Every coach begs or whines when things don't go their way. Saban did a little of that plus campaigning in 2011. C'est la vie

Well, you'd be melting as well if you finished 5th.

That being said, they should be mad at their own conference. That co champion BS really hurt them IMO.

OOC schedule killed them. And the OOC schedule has been something that was mentioned by the committee from the get go.

12 I agree with your assessment

As for their coach, he has to speak up for his team. I would be disappointed if he had not

Nobody on the committee understands the type of football they play in that part of the country??? (Art Briles)

Jeff Long is the AD of Arkansas and Tom Osborne is on the committee. If Baylor wants to look like a Mountain West team, they get treated like one.

Exactly. The 5th place team, and occasionally the 6th place, are going to bitch and moan every year of the 4 team playoff. When they expand to 8 teams, the 9th and 10th ranked teams will bitch and moan. DWI.

Yes, I agree. I think Briles could have left it at that. When he started questioning the hometown ties of the committee, and complaining about not having a Big 12 lifer on the committee...he sounded like such a petulant loser.

The whole TCU/Baylor saga in the rankings makes me want them to only do one set of rankings that occur after the conference championship games are played. Once they moved TCU to third in the second-to-last set of rankings, they were setting themselves up for an implosion.

Yeah..that and the lack of conference championship game.

...and Briles is a little bitch for voting Bama in 4th place...literally the only coach of all those polled who placed Bama 4th.

He acted exactly the way that Saban was acting in 2011 BEFORE the BCS pairings. Alabama had only beaten 3 ranked opponents all year and finished 2nd in their division and 3rd in their conference and Saban was BEGGING for a do over all because they had the best lost, even though it was at home. It was sad. He was doing all of this over Oklahoma State who won their conference and have a MUCH tougher and more impressive schedule. You liked it then.

I don't blame Briles at all. If I were in the Big 12, between this and what happened in. 2011, I would be furious. Maybe he is just making the case for next year and this is his chance to show the injustice? Like Auburn/SEC did in 2004? At any rate he can say what he wants and an Alabama fan griping about a coach whining/lobbying is the height of irony.

What choice does Baylor have? Leave for another conference? Lol

That's bullshite, and you know it. Have you heard Briles' interviews?

At what point did Saban sound anything like that?

If it was Alabama, you bet your arse they'd be in that playoff.

Baylor has a very good point. They are a CFB have-not and they just got fricked.

I don't recall Saban talking about where everyone is going to be buried.

Yep, Bama would handle being in that situation with straight class.
