Same here. What I don't quite understand, when the 9 game slate is given as a reason, is what difference it makes. The first couple of games for most BCS conference teams are OOC. Why not have a 1&1 with TCU, OU or whoever?

It's a reason because the 9 games are out of each team's control. They can be setup as easy or as hard as the conference makes it.

And that's called risk. And where there is risk, there are consequences.
Ohio State is backing out of games. Oregon. The 9 game schedule is hurting football because teams want to face the bottom half of the conference equally as much as they want to face the top half (that's what 9 games gets you. more of the same. not better)

I can understand us wanting to have games played in TX, but we already would of been playing at TCU this year.
It looks like they are trying to have a game in TX every year. So I would not be surprised to see the OU game in Dallas in 2019. I would not mind them doing that in '17 with OU but still keep the H&H.
