Beating Alabama in the sugar bowl? Well, it looked like fun when Utah did it.

As I recall, a significant contributing factor to the Alabama loss, was their utter disappointment in missing out on the playoffs and even having to play in the game. Alabama apparently couldn't overcome both Utah, and their own indifference! That same lack of effort could come into play again this year, if they are resigned to playing a non-Blue Blood like TCU!

Play Tech on Dec. 31 in men's basketball.

That game was the origin or the term “Curt”.

I'm not putting a lot of stock in someone who predicts two BIG 10 teams in the CFP.

KState talk only. You're only 6 games into the season. Stop worrying about projections until the championship game.

…so are you officially projecting TCU to the championship game?

Time to show the "Mighty" SEC what TCU football is all about!!! We'd run Bama outta the stadium with Duggan and QJ and their pathetic secondary.

I was saying that they thought TCU wasn't a worthy opponent in a bowl game, then got their butts handed to them. To me, that was a much earlier "curt." But I may have misunderstood.

We've only played half a season. I stopped looking at bowl projections after the 2014 fiasco. We all know we have to go perfect to have a chance at getting into the playoffs. We don't fall under the umbrella of teams that can afford a "quality loss" (or 2 quality losses for some teams like the one down in Austin).
