That too. I was thinking of them following miami, vt, etc from the big east to the acc [Reply]

West Virginia in the ACC or B1G? Never in a million years. The B1G had to hold their noses to allow Nebraska in. West Virginia makes Nebraska look like MIT. [Reply]

B1G should have grabbed Mizzou but I'm glad they didn't. [Reply]
I don't think it would have mattered, Ohio State would have gotten in on name alone. It isn't the first time they have, and will not be the last time. You can't explain TCU dropping 3 places in the polls just because they beat a team by about 50 points. [Reply]

I'll add that if it had been OU or Texas, they would be in the playoffs. [Reply]

Their strength of schedule took a big hit by playing a terrible Iowa State team. It took a further hit when Oklahoma lost and reduced the number of ranked teams TCU had played. Finally, extra credit for conference championships was applied to OSU and Baylor.
It was the perfect storm when combined with Ohio State's drop the mic performance. [Reply]
