what they've failed to consider is what happens when 3 teams go undefeated... who would go, a Pac 12/big10/SeC (hell ACC too) team fresh off a nationaly televised championship win, or... texas or OU coming out of that conference/.
When an undefeated Texas gets shafted.....
and a 1 loss Fla, bama or tsou goes to the title game ahead of us, what the **** is DeLoss going to do or say to calm everyone down? We'll have nobody to blame but ourselves for such a ****ty outcome.
Funny how the big 12 and big 10 have completely switchedExactly. Now we're the weak bitch conference that thinks its deserving but just is
Some don't care tho...Actually, some of us do. The loss of Nebraska and CU makes this a ten team conference. Which means no conference title game. Which means all that "every two years" **** when it comes to playing those horrid Big 12 North teams turns into "every ****ing year." We just became a weaker, ****tier version of what the Pac-10 is right now. All conference games all the ****ing time.
And again, there aren't many really good programs OOC that are going to want to schedule us. We still play in the BCS system. So, we'll coast to a 1-loss or undefeated record fairly easily and then consistently be left out in the cold for teams from the Big 10 and SEC and maybe even the Pac-10. Anyone that is trying to spin this as a good thing is ****ing out of their gourd.
With OSU going to ****, Tech under new management, Aggy still being Aggy, and Nebraska gone. . .we're looking at OU potentially being our only Top 25 opponent in conference. That's going to do WONDERS for our BCS average.
Oh, and if I understand it correctly, we just lost our automatic bid to the BCS since we're only fielding 10 teams. Yeah, this hasbeen a ****ing spectacular chess match by Dodds and Powers. ****ing Bobby Fischer would be in awe.
We're in the same situation we've been in the last 6 or so years - beat OU and don't **** up in any of our gimme games and we're in the championship game. We even have one less chance to **** up now with no championship game. Yes, we could be left out if there are three undefeated teams but that doesn't happen very often. This thing sucks but I think our path to the championship game just got a little easier. An undefeated BCS conference team won't get passed over by a 1 loss team, period.
