Y'al think splitting up and having a North and South and then having those two play it off is better than everyone playing each other? It's pretty much a consensus on here that its bullshit how the Big12 does it. What does it matter if you play 9 conference games vs 8? Bama played Wisconsin in place of that other conference game. A&M played Arizona St. Florida played Florida St. Those are tougher opponents that Kansas or Texas. Shit Whisky could whip Kansas, Texas, Iowa St, Texas Tech, Kansas St and give a few other Big12 members grief. The big thing is the extra game. Off weeks are huge. That's the part it appears people don't grasp. lol The bowl games will be played on Jan 1. There are going to be lots of off weeks coming up. It isn't like everyone is playing next week. Texas played the hardest schedule in the nation, so what does that have to do with anything? Again, if there is a consensus, who should OU play? Baylor And don't give me the shit about them already having played this year. So have Stanford and USC. Every year there are repeats of regular season games. That's 1 reason I say do away with championship games and expand the playoffs. Set it up before the season starts and I'm completely good with it. Some of the best football games I ever watched were Big 12 Championship games, but ya'll all need to realize this conference championship game is relatively new and was nothing originally but a revenue scheme. Don't be mad about doing what your teams wanted to do. |

Y'all are acting like a Conference championship is an extra game. It isn't. It is played in leu of playing all the teams in your conference. It is a way to play less games.
Dump some of the teams in your conference so you can limit the number of games in your season, play them all or split them up and play for the championship. All of those things are legitimate ways to win a conference championship. If you are going to be the "Champ" there has to be a way to decide who is the winner. How else do you do it besides play them all or have a playoff between the two best sub-groups? |

lol Add up how many games it takes to play all the teams in the SEC and then apply your "basic math". Exactly. There are too many teams to play everyone. That's why your argument of playing everyone in your conference can't work in ALL the other conferences. Yet you still believe the other 4 conferences should dump a few teams to line up with the Big12 format. How about 1 conference changing to get on level with the other 4? Oh and lol since you appear to like it in every post. |

A&M leaves the Big 12 (and their championship game format) that makes it so the Big 12 is actually a conference that allows all the teams to actually play each other and now all of a sudden that is unfair. The Big 12 system is fair under ANY definition of the term. Play them all or split them up and have the best two play each other. Those are the two choices. Both are fair and legitimate.

LOL I don't think it's unfair to play all the teams in your conference. What's unfair is playing 1 more conference opponent and using that excuse for not playing a championship game. It's mathematically impossible with a 12 game schedule for the other conferences to play everyone. So your solution is to downsize 4 other conferences thereby creating a 6th conference so those teams would have a home? How about just having the Big12 add a few teams? And you don't have to worry about them being too strong of programs since they will have to come from the group of 5 as no legimate power 5 team will be interested. |

And the Big12 is the one doing this for the money, they want to split their conference money 10 ways instead of 12, and NCAA requires 12 teams to have a championship. Until the Big12 decides to have a championship game, they will either be automatically admitted (like OU this year), or left out (like TCU last year) and that's not fair either way. Nor is it good for the sport IMO. |

It is titled (insert any year from 2013 back) Houston Husker Memorial College Football thread. I argued strenuously every year for true playoffs in the threads and derided polls as popularity contests and was almost universally called a dumbass and most people hated the thought of a playoff. If you think that is revisionist you are crazy. Hell, people in THIS thread have openly stated that 8 teams is the max they would support this year. ETA picking team in any fashion isn't a true playoff. Win and you are in. That is a true playoff. Hell people have posted in response that BCS got it right every time and only after last year and OSU peaking at the right time (which is another thing I claimed teams would do) did that talk go away. Either you have never read these threads or you have a terrible memory. |

My concern is after listening to those guys yesterday on the playoff ranking show is that no matter what NC does they are screwed. Those 2 FCS games and that loss to SC is haunting them. Therefore my best hope is to screw the conference who believes they are special. The whole problem is and I'm sure everybody here agrees is, the National Championship is being somewhat decided in an office and not on the field like it should be. Playoff expansion is the only way to resolve this. 8 teams would cover all the deserving teams. The argument of then #9 and 10 would be whining doesn't wash as that far down its too diluted. Not to say 16 would be bad as those additional games could take the place of some of these bullshit 5-7 teams getting bowl bids but I'll settle for 8. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: And Jeff Long just moved the goal posts over what it takes to get in. Fuck this committee bullshit. Yep. It was old last year, this year its just beyond ridiculous. I despise human ranking. Conference championship game champs, then the rest via bcs computer ranking. The b12 will have to stop their special snowflake bullshit and play a champ game, like everyone else, if they want an auto berth. I despise that Big12 bullshit so much I hope Clemson, Bama and either Iowa or Michigan State all win convincingly and then Stanford just destroys USC and the committee has just enough of a bad taste in their mouth about Oklahoma sitting at home they move Stanford in the top 4 in place of Oklahoma. Just like what happened to TCU last year. I think TCU last year just might have been the best team in the nation and Oklahoma is dam good this year but screw them and their special conference.

I'd rather watch the 16 team playoff than the Bowlshit games but 16 would cause the regular season to be not nearly as watchable as the crazy upset you're hoping for doesn't mean anything if it happens. Last year's final CFP rankings had 9-16 ALL with 3 losses...actually only a few 3 loss P5 teams didn't make the top 16, so basically 3 losses means you're probably in. Eww. |

Maybe he can get fans interested in Miami football again, but I would imagine the facilities will be a lot different than what he is accustomed to in Athens. Any news on Pruitt heading to South Carolina? I'd heard that was a done deal, but now looks like they are looking at Oklahoma's Riley and Will Muschamp from Auburn. |

Well, they also had some people believing they were world beaters this year, at least aTm did. At one point they got a first place vote in the polling. In general though, the SEC this year was the most over rated conference in a long time. |

I think Muschamp is the front runner, unless he goes to Athens..............hearing reports that Pruitt might be headed to Bama

So Baylor should play twice this weekend? Quote HistoryQuoted:

Y'al think splitting up and having a North and South and then having those two play it off is better than everyone playing each other? It's pretty much a consensus on here that its bullshit how the Big12 does it. What does it matter if you play 9 conference games vs 8? Bama played Wisconsin in place of that other conference game. A&M played Arizona St. Florida played Florida St. Those are tougher opponents that Kansas or Texas. Shit Whisky could whip Kansas, Texas, Iowa St, Texas Tech, Kansas St and give a few other Big12 members grief. The big thing is the extra game. Off weeks are huge. That's the part it appears people don't grasp. lol The bowl games will be played on Jan 1. There are going to be lots of off weeks coming up. It isn't like everyone is playing next week. Texas played the hardest schedule in the nation, so what does that have to do with anything? Again, if there is a consensus, who should OU play? Baylor And don't give me the shit about them already having played this year. So have Stanford and USC. Every year there are repeats of regular season games. That's 1 reason I say do away with championship games and expand the playoffs. So Baylor should play twice this weekend? They are only playing this weekend because everyone in the Big12 takes 2 weeks off while others take 1 week off. They play their 12th game during Championship week while others are playing game 13. That wasn't even a nice try.

Does anyone else remember the talking heads early in the season saying the pac12 south was the new SEC W? Yep Shows you how much a season can change things doesn't it? That's why they are all on Stanford getting in if NC beats Clemson. |

IIRC, NCAA rules say that only a conference with 12 or more teams can have a championship game. Conferences with more than 10 teams have to have a championship game, or they can't have a real champion (teams with identical records that didn't play each other). Since Big X(II) hasn't enticed any more teams to join, they cannot have a championship game. There is nothing wrong with round robin format, and whining about sitting home, "extra" game, blah blah, is purse swinging. OU won the conference fair and square, just like Iowa and Florida will (or MSU and UA). I just don't see what the issue is, I don't see anything to carp about.

The truth hurts man, as a Nebraska fan I know mediocre when I see it. I can add a few more teams to the list if it helps. |

As much detail as possible on each also as to why they are mediocre programs and what it's going to take to turn each one of them around. |
