Big 12 – Baylor & TCU Won’t Get Into the College Football Playoff
By being a 10-team conference without a championship game, the Big 12 doomed both Baylor and TCU, the co-champions with one loss each, to do some cheap politicking in an attempt to convince the committee each one deserves to be in the college football playoff, but it’s not going to work, and it shouldn’t.

TCU Over Texas – One Step Closer to the Playoff
If the committee needed a statement win from TCU to convince them they deserve to be in the playoff, their 48-10 drubbing of Texas in Austin should be enough to earn them some style points. There’s also the matter of actually winning the Big 12 and getting over a team or two in the final rankings, but that’s another matter.

Big 12: Oklahoma Disappoint vs Texas, Baylor Barely Escape Against TCU
The Red River Showdown has been often one-sided in recent years. As expected, Oklahoma walked away from the Cotton Bowl with a win over Texas, but not as convincing as it should have been considering the team’s records. Baylor and TCU clashed heading in the battle of the undefeated teams, and walked away with a 61-58 win thanks to a crazy finish, which included scoring 24 points in the final 11 minutes of the game.

TCU Over Oklahoma – Big 12 Shaken Up by Huge Upset
A TCU win over Oklahoma isn’t such a rare thing when looking back at the history of clashes between the two teams, but at this point in time it’s a huge upset. The Horned Frogs came out with a 37-33 win against the undefeated Sooners thanks to a big game from Treyvone Boykin and on the opposite end, Trevor Knight making too many mistakes.

Big 12 – TCU vs Texas Tech Predictions
The TCU Horned Frogs didn’t expect to be without their starting quarterback so soon, making their visit to Lubbock and their game against the quite hot Texas Tech to look a lot more complicated than they initially thought, especially when thinking about last season’s encounter between the team.

2013 College Football Season – Ranked Teams Losing & Upsets Already Begin
The beginning of the College Football season brought with it (so far) losses of three ranked teams, as Georgia (losing to Clemson) and TCU (losing to LSU) weren’t really subject to an upset due to the quality of their rivals, but Boise State being destroyed by Washington was more than a slightly surprising result, and so was Oregon State losing to Eastern Washington.

2013 College Football Season – LSU vs TCU Predictions
For the first time in 45 years, LSU and TCU will meet on the football field as the stars of the 2013 Cowboys Classic, with both teams having something to prove: The Horned Frogs that they can be a major factor in the Big 12, while it’s about answering the doubters for LSU.

Michigan State Spartans – Le’Veon Bell Lays Winning Groundwork
The easy to spot hero of the game was Dan Conroy with a 47 yard field goal with one minute left in the fourth quarter, winning the game for Michigan State. The real hero? Le’Veon Bell, who carried a dysfunctional offense all season long in the Big Ten and once again in the Bowl Game, to finish the season on a high note, and just above .500.

Ohio State Buckeyes – Undefeated Doesn’t Mean Champions
Shouldn’t a 12-0 season in the Big Ten mean something? Not when Ohio State are serving bowl bans and eligibility for a conference title ban as well. This isn’t the first time over the last few years that a team will finish the season undefeated but out of reach of BCS glory. This isn’t the first time it’s happened to Urban Meyer as well.
