REAL "Elephant in the Room" Re: CFP Committe (Why 6 teams minimum has to happen)

B12 was punished for not having a conference championship game.



^this needs to stop being said. Even if they had had one this year, a 1 loss conference champ would have been left out.


The other guy got it partly right.

The Big 12 was punished because...

1. they only have 10 teams and play all the other teams, which...
2. means that Baylor/TCU are guaranteed to get to play all three of the shitty teams in the conference...
3. and that they only get 3 OOC games...
4. which Baylor scheduled against two more shitty teams and an FCS team...
5. and therefore was unable to play in a conference championship game.

When you take it in its totality, the 9 game schedule combined with the week OOC schedule and no championship game absolutely killed them.

And let's remember who those two missing conference teams were: Two from aTm, Missouri, Nebraska, and Colorado. Granted, Colorado sucks. But replace one or two of the shitty opponents with one or two from that list...then throw in the championship game on top of that. Then you have a decent schedule. That's why OSU had 9 bowl eligible opponents while Baylor only had 6.
