6. And how exactly?
Texas argues that Texas Tech is out of the picture because of their lower ranking in the BCS.

How can you possibly eliminate Texas Tech from the picture without the BCS rankings?

7. Read my other posts, StupidGuy.
I think that Texas Tech should be in the championship game. Because they never have before. That was the old tie breaker in th SWC. OU or UT still would have a chance at the National Championship.

8. But those are not the rules for this season.
Period. You can´t change the rules in the middle of the game. That is how 5 year olds deal with things when games don´t go their way. And I DO feel bad for Tech, because they have as legit an argument as the others; the Big 12 MUST change the rules at the end of the season. This is not the SWC, the SEC or any other conference and their rules don't apply RIGHT NOW.

This really stinks, because of course if OU does win the National Championship, the entire state of Texas will not shut up about it being tainted and blaming OU for something that ended up being the luck of a computer draw. You cannot blame OU, nobody did a darn thing about it.

12. That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard
There is no need for a big 12 championship game. They instead have to implement a playoff system BASED on BCS rankings.
