As a TCU grad I can tell you that they will be saying exactly what they said to us last year: "no dice."
Honestly, though, as much as I would love to see my school play for a national championship I do see the reasoning. Playing a WAC or a MWC schedule is not the same as playing a Big XII, Big X, or SEC schedule. It doesn't mean that the team itself isn't as good as the best that those conferences have, though. But the week to week battles are not the same, so without a playoff the debate rages on.
As someone who attended TCU when we were cellar-dwellers in the old Southwest Conference (may it rest in peace...) I am absolutely thrilled to even be in the top 25, not to mention being BSC bowl contenders. This is enough for me. If they let us (or Boise for that matter) in, then all the better. But I won't be among the legions crying foul if it doesn't happen.
Actually I would just be happy with some national respect. Three touchdown upset to Oregon State, Lee Corso? Gee, thanks. Whatever.
