Little ol’ TCU moved up in weight class with the big boys this week in the second installment of the College Football Playoff rankings, and you know what that...
The Horned Frogs have to go undefeated for a chance to be selected, and even that might not be enough.
A 52-point margin of victory over the Cyclones in 2014 dropped them from third to sixth in the final rankings.Now that TCU has climbed to fourth in the rankings, Sonny is taking the high road, a good idea at that. He says he has “a lot of faith” the CFP committee will reward their work if they keep winning.
Anyway, after the snub, we were told the Big 12 lacked a 13th data point, which is why the league subsequently reinstated its championship game. Didn’t help that TCU and Baylor were co-champions, or that Bob Bowlsby, the commissioner, refused to declare an outright champ, citing league protocol. That’s another reason the SWC was better. No one knew the rules.
Even more than the data, I’d like to know how personalities affect outcomes. Did Condi Rice do impersonations of George W. while debating issues? Do the coaches run the show? Do the sportswriters actually get a say?
