Wow. Big-12 is all in.

The Big-12 is changing their conference rules mid-season to try to improve their chances of getting into the playoff. Now, that is how you support your schools.

Well, that'll fool the committee.

And they are hiring a PR firm to lobby the committee???
Heck I can't wait till they move it to 8 teams and a computer decides taking the human element out of it all together.

Well, that'll fool the committee.

I thought this was really dumb but really its no dumber than recognizing conf champ as a criteria.

That was put in to placate the big 10. I hate to tell the big 12 & Baylor but they're wasting their time & money. Neither of these is going to affect the committee.

That's the most Ole Miss thing ever.

This was the Big 12 rule all along. They had co-champions in 2012. I don't see why this is so hard to understand. If we'd had the same record as Bama the SEC would have declared us West Co-Champions, whether we wanted the title or not. Tiebreakers are only used for automatic berths in most cases. Maybe all cases. The Big 12 just clarified their rule. They didn't change it.
