I think it depends on WHO theses teams lose to
I think it would depend on who they lose to. If you lose to a ranked opponent, that is better than losing to an Iowa State for instance.
2014 would beg to differ.

He talked up Ohio State big time for the playoff in 14. But generally, I agree he is supportive. And probably the best TV analyst out there. Plus, he seems like a really good guy in a position where a lot of guys in his shoes might not be.
Well, you only play so many ranked teams. If they lose to a highly ranked team, chances are they won't have many impressive wins on their schedule. So far, big wins have helped more than bad losses have hurt.
I still think OU's beatdown of OSU will be a factor if it came down to comparing a 1-loss Big 12 team to a 1-loss Big 10 team, especially if OSU is that team. Any Big 12 Champion will be either OU or a team that beat OU at least once.
That's because it's week 7. That way, after week 15 when he changes his tune and claim he was giving TCU all sorts of credit, but...He has been a good politician for TCU so far.
What is the deal with OSU anyway?
Did their offense just have a bad day against OU?
OU clearly has shown flaws on their defense against Baylor and Iowa state.
Bama, Clemson, Big 10 would be in, especially if that Big 10 team is anyone but Wisconsin.If the below happens, who gets in?
Bama -- undefeated
Clemson -- undefeated
Penn St/Wisconsin/Ohio St/Michigan -- one loss for one of them
Washington -- one loss
TCU -- one loss
Obviously in all situations the one loss is not in the CCG.
Everyone's ignoring the fact that dead week and finals take place at one time or another during your proposed expanded playoff period. Unlike high school or even Divisions II or III, it matters. These guys have to have the same opportunity to study as other students have.
I think eight makes the most sense, but could live with six.
You mean 6 teams? That would take the same amount of time as 8.
Agreed. It would be unlikely, but entirely possible, to have a 4 loss team make the playoff.I'll never be able to get behind conference auto bids.
It matters just as much and very likely even more, in the FCS, DII and DIII programs and yet they manage to cope with a 24 team playoff.
A four school CFP is ridiculously too small and no amount of rationalization can change that fact. 8 or 12 (with the Top 4 getting byes) is a much better number.
Yeh, but would reward top two teams with byes. Would be identical to NFL.
Why is Herbstreit always included in this list? And Galloway, too? Herbstreit has been generally supportive of TCU ever since he covered the TCU Rose Bowl. He picked the Frogs to win the B12 and as a candidate for the CFP this year.
It is so easy to find talking heads who are much more anti-B12 and anti-TCU than Herbstreit.
