[QUOTE="Endless Purple, post: 712272, member: 778"] Yes it is about money. I'm an idealist and believe it should be about fair competition. Unfortunately that is a concept lost on most people today. Most fans of schools like UT, Ohio St and Bama believe they have bigger fan bases so what happens on the field is not as important. Goody, more AQ elitist comments. I agree not everyone has the same challenge in their schedules, but assuming TCU/Boise would be the same in an AQ conference is also wrong. Right now they have to compete for recruits without and AQ tag which is a big hinderance. Not to mention the TV comments degrading them every week solely based on conference affiliation. I don't believe any conference should be able to send a team with 3 losses or more. If AQ conferences are so good, why do they need a free pass? If UConn is so good compared to TCU and Boise, the voters are allowed to vote them higher. There is no rule that says undefeated TCU needs to be ranked higher. This applies to all conferences. Do away with AQ bids and simply say that any conference champion in the top 12 gets in regardless of conference (up to 10). If the team is not worthy then don't vote them that high. If TCU wins the BE with an 8-4 record, I would not want them in a BCS bowl either. [/QUOTE]
Verification
Which team did TCU defeat in the College Football Playoffs?
