No one trusts the Committee.... but we win, we're NY6 in !
Now the committee ... every year, only has had 1 member associated with the B12.
1/2 represents a member with dual affiliations(present and/or past) to Conferences.
2017 selection committee
ACC .......... 2
SEC .......... 3
B10 .......... 2 1/2
P12 .......... 2 1/2
B12 .......... 1
others ..... 2
Interested to know the process on how and who selects the selection committee...
This morning (Monday 11/27) ESPN posts in their "College Football Bowl Projections" that OU will play Auburn in the Rose Bowl (Playoff) and
TCU will play in the Cotton vs. Alabama or Penn State. (They assume we get the L on Sat afternoon.)
While not official in any way, this shows that somebody out there (of substance) thinks that a 10-3 TCU is a lock for a NY6 Bowl.
I think that a loss that is a "good loss" (tight game or low score) to OU ensures a CFP committee ranking of 11 or above and NY6 bid.
Yea, we want to win the B12, and we'll all hitch up our pants in tribute to GP to give him the magic that he can lead the fellas to an upset, but the consolation prize of the CB and the opportunity to tee it up with Bama or the State Penn would be a cherry-on-top moment for TCU!
