No shit.
Anyone who didn't see this coming after watching the NCAA deal with this for basketball every year is retarded.
Same thing will happen with an 8 team playoff, except instead of TCU and Baylor, it'd be Arizona, Kansas State and Michigan State. And if it were 16, we'd be debating UCLA, Oklahoma and Clemson.
Define "best"So unlike the BCS where the 3rd best team was left out, it's now the 5th best team that's left out.
Huge improvement.
Four will always be a problem, eight teams would be a huge improvement. Any team rated #9 and bitching can go fuck themselves.
The 69th team in Bball pitches a fit every year too.
If Baylor beats KSU, they will jump TCU. Nothing is static in this deal.

Two things happened today to make me think that you might be wrong:
1) The Big 12 stated that they'd submit both teams as "Co-Champions" and let the committee decide which of the two teams were the better team. So far, the committee has consistently shown TCU to be the better of the two teams.
2) Baylor apparently hired a PR firm today to help get their POV out regarding why they are more deserving than TCU.
My guess is that KState beats Baylor this weekend and makes it allacademicacademis anyway.
As a TCU alum, having the chance to screw Baylor over is just a small payback for their BS in the 90s.
the neutral site playoff games where literally 6 days notice is given are destined to fail... there's literally a groupon for the pac12 title game that came into my email today. i live 15 minutes from Levi's Stadium and no fucking chance i'm going to that game... this guy will be sittin' home, eating nachos, drinking a cab that tastes like a table wine and waiting for the wife to go to sleep so I can find some solid asian porn to "watch for 5 minutes".
