In the next sentence after the one you bolded I wrote that it is conceivable the Big XII would get 3 or 4 teams in, not that it would happen every year. Or any year.
CFP 5+11 Model gains steam... is that good or bad for college football?

TCU will never win the big sausage contest with Texas and Ohio State. Very few in the XIl can do what TCU can do.

Ohio State coach Ryan Day argues for Big Ten getting four automatic CFP bids
Ohio State head coach Ryan Day is advocating for the Big Ten to receive at least four automatic bids in the College Football Playoff as discussions continue about expanding the playoff format to 16 teams. Day believes that the Big Ten's recent expansion to 18 teams, including strong programs like Oregon and Washington, justifies a greater representation in the CFP.

Really it was so unfair of the rest of college football to force the Big Ten to destroy the Pac 12 and take four of its members. Why did we do that? The least we can do is make sure that 9-3 Iowa never misses the playoff in a year where they were unfairly scheduled to miss Ohio State, Michigan, Oregon, and Penn State but despite losing at Iowa State and Purdue and at home to USC did really teach some major lessons to those rascals Northwestern, Illinois, Rutgers, UCLA, Minnesota, Indiana, and Wisconsin.Ohio State coach Ryan Day argues for Big Ten getting four automatic CFP bids

I don’t think it’s conceivable, barring major changes in OOC scheduling philosophy (and Big 12 teams winning those games). The FCS school, G5 program, and middling P4 team type slate they all seem to fall in love with isn’t going to cut it if they expect more than one or maybe two teams to sneak in. Gonna need to play as many Big 10/SEC teams as you can, be willing to go on the road, and win those games. Not happening.

They will not let that happen. They have no interest in a competitive, fair system.

What if the SEC had to play 9 conference games?
It wouldn’t be any different.

3x4+4 system. Top 3 teams in each conference are seeded how they finished. All 4 champs get a bye. 4 at-large bids with highest G5 getting the next highest seed and home field advantage in the 1st round. Then BIG and SEC will likely have the other at Alger spots anyways, so there’s your 4th team for those conferences.
3 Big 12 teams and 4 SEC teams in the playoff on an annual basis would be pretty laughable if the goal is to have the best teams competing.
