You're the idiot if you think a 2 loss Texas with wins over OU and aggy misses the playoffs with losses in the road to Florida and Georgia. 

Don't try to make it better by saying on the road. Texas should have won that game.

Swap the loss in Florida for a loss to OU and guess what? We are likely sitting right next to OU in the rankings with 3 losses. Buncha fucking idiots around here. 

You are the idiot. That's how BAD the Florida loss is and how BAD the georgia loss is. It's not the losses it's how they happened. 

Lmao, you think Texas is ranked higher than vandy or Bama if they lose to OU but beat Florida? You're absolutely high as a fucking kite

Haven't checked this thread in weeks but I'm guessing we shouldn't have lost to florida. 

The saddest thing about the florida loss is it helped OU lmao.  The team that was lucky to get to 7 wins is gonna have a Venables playoff season.

Tenn made it last year after losing to Arkansas and finished at 10-2

3 loss Texas deserves a spot over 2 loss BYU, 2 loss Vandy, and 2 loss Utah. If chalk holds and Bama and OU win, they should both go over us. 

While any longhorn would naturally agree with this, if you recall how much of a giant bitch ass Alabama and Kalen seemed begging for a blatantly undeserved playoff spot last year, it puts it into better perspective.

Just beat Aggy - we aren't running the table in the event we snuck it. 

Yes, it would be nice to have more football, but we aren't a complete team...offense and defense are materially downgraded from last year.

Beat Aggy, maybe some crazy shit happens to fall our way and we get more football but we ain't elite this year.

We are a flawed team that will improve next year

Bama shouldve gone over SMU. They got railed by PSU and it was a waste of a spot.

BYU and UTah would have 5 losses on our schedule. Vandy has 3-4 and we beat them head to head. 

Dude give it a rest. Unless the score is 52-14 or something and they just absolutely dismantle a mediocre aggy then there's nothing to talk about. Texas doesn't pass the eye test for anyone. They have looked like SHIT for the majority of the season with some flashes of brilliance. 

Even last week they only put together one complete half of football. The first half was fucking embarassing on defense.

Had they not lost to one of the shittiest OU teams in history i would agree, but they did, so they did not deserve it.

when Texas is on, they look like the best teams in the country. When they are off they look like a huge wtf headscratcher of a team that shouldn't be rewarded with a playoff spot.

yep. we couldn't afford a 3rd loss and the Florida game was the easiest of the 3 to win.

Quite possibly yes. That's how inconsistent the team has been. It's crazy to think you are so confident. This team almost lost to fucking missisippi state and Kentucky and needed fucking miracles to win those games.

Nope, they still deserved it. Giving a poverty league an undeserved spot is what the fuck is wrong with this playoff system. ACC and Big 12 are one bid leagues. They are a joke.

Watch what they do to Aggy on Friday. We ran into a buzzsaw called Kirby Smart against UGA (who I happen to think is the #2 in the country). Elko is no Smart. We are going to put the hurtlocker on these aggy frauds. Im thinking a 20 point win.

We beat either with ease.

I dont think anyone knows how good aggy is they played the bottom half of the SEC and ND.

Correct. Texas can go whip the dogshit out of them like georgia did to Texas and they could drop pretty far by being exposed. Texas can crack 11 with an absolute blowout but I think caps at 12 and gets pushed out by one of the bullshit mandatory slots.

It that happens then I think you are correct. It's either Texas last in or first out. It necessitates a blowout though. A win I think leaves Texas 2nd out.

We will blow them out. You are going to see a peaking Texas squad on Friday behind an amped crowd.

I think a clearly peaking and a Texas that puts 4 full quarters together at the end of the season in a big moment does get in. 

That means Texas plays to its full ability and absolutely fucking runs them out of the stadium for all 4 quarters. 

Texas putting that tape in front of the committee is hard to say they don't deserve a spot.

We did get the piss beat out of us not two weeks ago, so peaking might be a stretch after beating a team with zero conference wins.

That’s the joke and problem with all of this - too much em-pha-sis on what people think.

Piss beat out of us... checks notes... 14-10 game in the 4th quarter despite the shittiest reffing I have seen this season leading up to that point. That game was gettable until the onsides kick, then the dam broke. Dont act like we were uncompetitive.

This is how playoffs work though. We see division champs with losing records get into the nfl playoffs when teams with better records are left out. We left a weak Big 12 and chose a more difficult playoff path.

Sure, but how many teams in question wouldve beaten UGA or OSU on the road. The answer is none of them would. 

OK.

Good. It's more entertaining and we're better off for it.

SMU didnt win their division though. Im okay giving the poverty leagues a spot for their champion but its laghuable for a bunch of midgets to beat up on each other and give the runner up a spot in the dance.

You have to weigh the qaulity of the losses. Especially a voluntarily scheduled game on the road against the defending national champion.

We would be favored over both on a neutral field.

What about BYU’s season should scare opposing teams? They also have a QB who wears #47.

I can see a case being made but is it a travesty if we don’t get in?  Fuck no.

These people arent here for an honest debate. They think everyone would beat us and that the end all to every argument is that we lost to Florida. Not that we are poised to have 3 top 10 wins, with 2 wins over playoff teams, and 2 losses to the future #1 and #2 teams in the country. Nope, none of that counts because of one game on the road when we were still finding ourselves. So therefore, every shitty team ranked near us would beat us.

I can get the frustration with that (I’m an SMU alum though) but when the alternative is Bama fuck ‘em. I don’t want a Big 10 vs. SEC tournament every season. I also think only 3 or 4 teams have a legitimate shot at winning it all so arguing about 10-12 is sort of pointless.

If that's where the best teams are, then so be it. If the Big 12 starts to schedule preseason games against UGA, OSU, Texas, and the likes and prove they can win, then give them a spot. Otherwise, fuck them, they dont deserve a spot for being the second tallest midget.

If Bama took SMU's spot last year, I think it's likely they end up in the title game. So I think that argument is a bit disingenuous.

Is wearing 47 as a QB bad? Seems like an odd take. I didn’t ask what a Vegas odds would be on a neutral field would be. I asked if he thought we beat them.
