Does anybody else think this game was unnecessary? Same goes for the ACC, Big Ten, Pac-12, and SEC. Everyone had an outright regular season champion. It opens the door for disaster for the team that's already earned a playoff spot. So far, 2 for 2 in the disaster department. LSU (9-3), North Carolina (9-3), and Purdue (8-4)...come on down. You're the next teams to fluke your way to a conference championship.
An underdog winning the conference championship is not always a fluke. The game is more fair at a neutral site. One team can lose early & progress towards being championship quality at the end of season. Conversely, the team with a better record could be regressing, or benefitted from a weak schedule.

New Mexico St wins their 5th game in their last 6, their 6th of their last 8 games, and did so in dominating fashion, 65-3. Granted it was an fcs school, but they've beat their last 2 opponents, 114-17, and one of those opponents was Liberty.

Saban on Fox halftime groveling for a spot. "We weren't 100% in our losses". Yea Nick, you're the only team in all of college football dealing with injuries
Yeah, I saw him groveling, it was pathetic, I couldn't stand listening to his lame excuses and had to turn it back to the women's bb game. But the quality of women's bb, compared to men's bb, is SOOOO bad that I couldn't handle watching that anymore. Gophers had a 7 pt lead and gave up 9 straight pts so quick it made my head spin. Guess that is what happens when you start 4 frosh & 1 soph, and the 1st player off the bench is also only a soph, too.

That's all TCU had to do, had 2 chances to do it and couldn't? I think they deserve to be in the cfp, but if they have to play Georgia, they'll get beat for sure. If they get matched up with Michigan, they may make it a competitive game.

TCU is tough and gritty. They win and do it in so many different ways. One of the few Big 12 teams I respect

They need to recruit a little bit better to be a true threat.

TCU escaped a lot of games this year to mediocre teams but 1 loss in OT beats 2 losses by Bama. Don’t gift them in for winning their last 3 games including a powerhouse FCS school lol

UMn vs Wisc is the longest running rivalry in the history of cfb, so I might know about such things,

still doesn't mean you disrespect someone who beat your team 50 years ago? It's pathetic

It's no different than Bears or Packers fans (oldest rivalry in the NFL) booing legends. Rivalries are rivalries. Fk that old man

It's TCU....they do alot with what they get. Not sure what more they can do
They can land some 5 stars and top 100s with Texas' recruiting depth. I don't see why they cant consistently recruit at a top 20 level.
