First,       TCU is in the Big 12, so that would have brought the wrath down on Texas. But       Texas clearly was in based on their win over Alabama. Second, although TCU got       totally blown out        in the finals last year, they had to win a semifinal game to get there.       > How much money did ESPN lose by TCU's obliteration last finals?        >        > That's what.        >        > And the fact Michigan got obliterated indicated we didn't need a 4-team       playoff last year.        >        > Mike              We didn't any playoff last year to tell us that Georgia was #1. But that's       not how it works. And again, how are you going to prevent blowouts in the       finals? TCU earned its spot there by winning the semifinal against the Big       Ten champion.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
