Nzoner's Game Room>Conference Realignment Spin-off: Who should the B12 add...?
Mr_Tomahawk 02:04 PM 12-07-2014
The BigXII shot itself in the foot yesterday with the round-robin setup. 4 of the 5 P5 conferences have a championship game. The higher seed in each of those games got into the playoffs...whether those are the 4 top teams or not. I don't think FSU or OSU are a top 4 team...but that's for another thread.

The Big12 is going to be relying on the lower seed to win one of these championship games from her on out if they choose not to have a B12 CCG. IMO, that isn't a good way to get your conference represented in the playoffs...
The round-robin is cute...but until they expand to 8 teams. The B12 could find themselves in this situation more often than Not.

The Baylor vs KSU was the championship argument is flawed as is the B12 could have had 2 teams in the playoffs...

So....to get the B12 back to....12 teams, what two teams would you add?

Poll to come...

Why should they?
how did the Big 12 get an extra week off?

The committee said months ago it DIDN'T matter. Then it did.

Really? Your season started at the same time as every other conference, but it ended a week later. You didn't play any more games than the other conferences, so there must have been an extra week off in there somewhere, right?

you're poor at math and reasoning

KSU played 2 thursday night games, giving us 4 free saturdays, but 2 byes.
KU had 2 byes (including last weekend)
TCU has 2 byes....

get the gist?

you think playing on Thursday means a team has a bye?

No

I think playing 12 games in 15 weeks means you had 3 bye weeks.

Thank God. I didn't think you were dumb. Glad I was right.

I don't see why the Big12 would get that waiver when the B1G never could(if they even tried I guess?)

But you would think the other conferences would want us to stay at 10 and continue to beat on each other instead of having a few more free wins like all the other conferences.

They aren't really free wins for the Big 12 considering the fact that you have the worst OOC winning percentage of any major conference, but I understand your point. Wouldn't want Baylor to play SMU, The Incarnate Word, Lamar, and La Petite in the OOC and still get Memphis, Cincy, Kansas, Texas Tech, and Kansas in conference. Nine free wins would be a pretty nice head start.
