Committee sees dollar signs at the end of the day. The sips have more money behind them than Vanderbilt does, so a playoff berth for 9-3 sips would be "better" than 10-2 Vandy, and they'll put any ridiculous media spin on it they need to if it came to that.

Moot point if we do our jobs in two weeks. Here's to the return of the Texas 7onghorn5.

In my mind, TU needs to beat both A & M and Arkansas convincingly to make up for the egregious loss to Florida. And I just don't see that happening.

Guys

Texas is OUT

Move on

Focus on our great season.

The "head to head" argument is ridiculous. Sips have 3 losses, Vandy has two. If it finishes that way, Vandy should be ahead of texas. Head to head comes in when you have an equal amount of losses.

But....then again......we're talking about texas.......

Normally I would totally agree. And don't get me wrong I hate the sips.

But at the beginning of the year, what if Vandy went and played Ohio State and sips played Charleston Southern? You think Vandy still has a better record?

I'm tired of teams getting rewarded for playing all non conf cream puffs.

Losing to Ohio State is not why Texas is out.

They are out bc they lost to a very bad team and got boat raced in November. That's the reason they are out.

And Arkansas is due. So many close finishes this year. Surely one time it ends in their favor. tu game sounds like as good a time as any to me.

This. And everyone is just assuming that t.u. beats them for everyone is talking about our game.

It would be great if the pigs pull it off.

I thought the question was simply sips or Vandy for playoffs?

I'm not speaking on why they are in or out. I'm just saying picking Vandy over them when sips beat them and played OSU vs Charleson Southern should mean something.

But yeah if things don't go berserk then sips should be left out.

If texas is coming off another loss, they'll get no consideration

That question only was relevant when it appeared OU would lose more games.

That question no longer is relevant since OU beat Bama. A 10-2 OU is in over both of them now easily with OU's schedule.

If it comes down to that,

9-3 tu will get in over 10-2 Vandy.


They will use any justification to get tu in, likely "they only lost by 7 to OSU"

It would be funny if their butt brother OU keeps them out. But don't discount the committee putting tu in by saying they beat OU head-to-head and only lost to OSU by 7.

Which would also be funny.

They'll probably just say, "theyre texas" and we dont need to justify anything
