How else do you sort out a 3 way tie then? You can't just brush off the point by saying 3 way tie or not. Well it was a 3 way tie, so how do you deal with it? plus / minus? well in that case Oklahoma still gets in. So what do you do?
Everyone knows it's not perfect but I don't know what else you can do with a 3 way tie. And you still miss the point that the Texas / Tech game was extremely important. You can't just cherry pick one regular season game, ignore all the others and make a conclusion that the regular season wasn't important in determining the result. It was important, you (and many others) are just focusing on certain games and ignoring others.
