  1. Texas Tech has not played anyone good, and despite that, they aren't undefeated. They would not be favored against any SEC playoff team, and would not be favored against Texas. In fact, I would even say that Tech would struggle against Tennessee and Florida.
  2. They have no chance of winning without Kiffin or any of his staff.
  3. That only lessens the impact of "punishing" teams who lose their conference championship games. Sark is right that if Texas had gone to Louisville instead of Columbus there would be no debate. So would you rather "punish" teams who sign up for tough OOC competition but fail to win, or do you want to "punish" teams who make the conference championship but fail to win? Remember that if SMU had beaten Clemson, SMU probably wouldn't need to go on the road (in other words, they were "punished" with a lower seed for losing to Clemson)
  4. Well, for starters, Texas has already beaten three of the 13. Who's left? Indiana, let's call that one a wash. (Personally I think we smoke them) Oregon, let's call that a wash, too. (Same) Texas Tech, I have no doubt we would crush them, and Vegas would agree. Lubbock, Jerryworld, it don't make a shit. Texas by 20+ (Wh)ole Mess, call it a wash. Notre Dame, we have a stronger record against common opponents (2-0 vs. 1-1) Alabama, Georgia, and Ohio State, I'll concede they'd be favored. BYU? We would be favored by two scores. Miami? We would be favored as well. Do you think anything I just said is outlandish?
  5. Why not? It happened all the time in the BCS days.
  6. It's just true. Can you name ten teams ranked ahead of Texas that would beat Texas?
  7. and if Georgia wins in Atlanta? Then what?
  8. Would Texas have lost to Florida if they'd benched Stroh and moved Hutson to Guard? If Malik Muhamad was available to prevent Dallas Wilson from racking up 100+ yard receiving and 2 TDs? I doubt it. if we're going to nitpick the win against OU because of Mateer's health we also should be willing to nitpick the loss at Florida. But you don't need to do any of that because deep down everyone knows that no matter what the records say, as of November 30, the Texas Longhorns are a better team than, and would beat (and in the case of three of them, have already beaten) most of the 13 teams the Coaches and AP have ranked ahead of them
  9. But it's totally cool to lose to Florida State
  10. Common opponents: Georgia, Vandy, Oklahoma Alabama Record: 2-2 Texas Record: 2-1 By the SEC's own tiebreak procedure, Texas would be ahead of Alabama.
  11. We did not. We let our foot of the gas, but we did not "struggle."
  12. The Kiffin sage has bored me to death. What a drama queen. Makes Mack Brown look stoic in comparison.
  13. AP and Coaches either overreacted to the Georgia loss or correctly reacted to the Georgia loss, and those same voters clearly underreacted to the Texas A&M win. That's obvious bias, and they know damn well that they're being hypocritical.
  14. It's a factory for annoying mormon QBs who have breakout games against Texas. If we need Tech to beat them, there's a good chance the mormon football gods will order up a soak session for a big xii title
