Both of those coaches are morons. Aranda just straight handing off with TCU having 3 timeouts and Dykes acting like running the ball twice with no timeouts was something they planned (even dumber if they did plan it)
If TCU gets in, they will immediately get murdered, and everyone will just knod their heads in disapproval with the acknowledgment that it was undoubtedly going to happen.
If you're undefeated close games apparently mean nothing. If you have 1 loss then close games are hyper scrutinized.
You can't guarantee fairness in scheduling in college football. So, open up the playoff have force these bogus teams to prove it against non-conference-champion teams that have played a real schedule.
