    Neither Baylor or TCU has beaten a team that is receiving votes in the ap or coaches. But because their style of play allows them to beat up on bad teams they're considered much better. And TCU played close with an average at best big ten team and almose lost to Texas Tech. It's funny how everyone says Iowa's schedule is a joke but doesn't say the same about other teams.

    I think the committee is going to make a lot of people mad and have Iowa ahead of the big 12 teams. At least for now until they start to play each other. Iowa's wins against Pitt, Wisconsin and Northwestern are all better than any that they have right now.

    I initially didn't think OSU should have gotten in over Baylor and TCU but then you look at their schedules versus OSU's and it was atrocious, just as it is this year too. The B12 teams need to realize that when you don't have a B12 championship game and the conference doesn't have an impressive OOC win, you're going to get left out. Here we are a year later and the B12 still does not have a solid OOC win. Who the hell has the B12 beat OOC in the last 2 years? Tennessee. haha

    If teams refuse to play top quality teams then they should be left out, which is why I think Iowa should not be in the discussion. It is ridiculous for them to be ranked #9 right now with that shit schedule.

    Baylor has played -0- games vs. top 40 opponents, and has a SOS of @ 109. WTF???

If they go undefeated, I would say they should make a New Years bowl, which is fantastic, but not the 4 team playoff. You can't bastardize the system by not playing anyone in your OOC, especially when you know the B10 is down. I would take a bunch of other teams with 1 loss over Iowa being undefeated, playing a bad schedule. Same goes for Houston if they win out. You have to play a legit schedule. Memphis' schedule isn't the best either BUT they at least beat Ole Miss that could potentially win the SEC. If OM wins out, then Memphis should get in over them.
