  1. ISU also is solid. They don't belong anywhere near a game for any sort of championship.
  2. I think you have to put in teams that actually won if (IF!) Michigan loses. You can't have a legitimate playoff with 3/4 teams that didn't win their conference. You would have to start looking at Utah and Kansas State.
  3. That's irrelevant. They are playing Purdue. Win or go home.
  4. It's not always going to be a 4 loss team, and conferences are getting to be pretty large. Any conference with more than 10 schools needs a championship game to crown a legitimate champion.
  5. It's true. Iowa State would be a pick 'em if they had Michigan's spot in this game. If Michigan wins, all is good. But if they somehow lose...
  6. They are looking better, but it would feel nice if they would put their foot on the gas. There isn't a single Big 12 team that is definitely worse than Purdue.
  7. Legitimacy. You can't seriously call yourself a conference champion if you don't play the best team of the group of teams not on your schedule.
  8. If all of the teams are shit teams, it's better to put in teams that win their way in.
  9. Michigan looks a whole lot worse than both TCU and Kansas State right now. Very unimpressive.
  10. It can only be said about TCU vs. K-State. Michigan hasn't played half of the Big 10 West, and we shouldn't assume they would have run the table against that shit show.
  11. Fuck that. The Big 12 championship doesn't make any sense, but in conferences where you don't play everyone, the game is essential.
  12. Kansas didn't belong in the 2007 championship game, fwiw. They were clearly worse than Missouri, who lost to OU twice. Just was pointing out that it has happened before.
  13. Yeah, they lost on their home field to Kentucky.
  14. If Michigan loses, the whole system should be reevaluated. There is no credibility when 3/4 of the teams couldn't even win their own fucking conference and back in after losing their last game. Has anyone ever backed into a championship and not been embarrassed? I can only think of Nebraska vs Miami and Oklahoma vs LSU. I would push for a Georgia, Utah, Kansas State, Alabama as a better field than Georgia, Michigan, Ohio State, TCU if Michigan loses. Georgia would be the only team that belongs in either scenario.
  15. I really don't know. It's already ridiculous enough that we are looking at 2 non-champs backing into the game. A loss to Purdue on a neutral field, playing for a championship, would make me seriously start looking at Utah, LSU, and Kansas State of I am on the committee.
  16. Too bad scores in the last 7:30 still count.
  17. Alabama isn't very good this year. They were very lucky to get out of Texas without a loss. I doubt they beat Kansas State.
  18. Ohio State got destroyed at home and TCU lost to a top 10 team in overtime. Neither team is getting past the first round, but there isn't anyone better to replace them with.
  19. Would Purdue be favored against Iowa State? Probably depends on who is home, right?
  20. Just playing the "what if" game here, because it isn't happening, but if Michigan loses a championship game to Purdue, then they really shouldn't be in the playoff.
  21. Yeah, the conference never gets embarrassed when OU makes the playoff.
  22. TCU is a good football team. I don't think they will win, but I expect them to hold their own.
  23. You don't take a big hit running a QB sneak.
