Baylor's PR firm should get no money. I'm sure part of Art's talking points last night were from them and he came away sounding like a whinny loser because his team couldn't take care of an average WVU team and played no one in the OOC.

I don't think PR matters at all.  Baylor tried that route, TCU tried the "let the resume speak for itself" route and both got screwed.  This was a brand decision.  Put Texas's name on TCU's/Baylor's resume and they're in.

Sounds like you and Bowlsby are of a similar mindset.

 The argument for TCU is easy. But we should all be smart enough to know the committee wasn't going to have integrity. TCU should of know they had to go undefeated. It is a shame.

TCU didn't get screwed. They didn't win their conference. Baylor got screwed. They have a better set of wins than anyone else does.

If TCU wins their bowl game they should just claim a national championship. Pretty aggie-esque but it'd be hilarious.

I don't think it is fair to use head to head when the home team wins the head to head.

It's more fair than anything else you can use.
