Big 12 commissioner on tiebreakers and head to head competition

From the Big 12 Media Days - July 21, 2014
Q. Are you concerned that the lack of a
championship game might cost the conference
in the college football playoff selection
process? And, secondly, with the one true
champion campaign, are you eliminating the
possibility of co-champions?
COMMISSIONER BOWLSBY: There
really isn't anything that -- we're always going to
apply a tie breaker to determine who our champion
is, because we have to put forth a representative
to one of the Bowl games.
So even though the records may be
exactly the same, there's either a head-to-head
competition with the same record or there's a tie
breaker imposed. So we always are going to get
to the point of a true champion.
That's the other thing about playing nine
games is you're always going to have a
head-to-head. You're not going to have two teams
with the same record that didn't play each other.
So that part is self-resolvable.
I'm sorry, what was the first part of your
question?

What a joke, Baylor is the one true champion this year, Big12

So when can we expect his resignation?

Bowlsby: I said bowl games, not the CFP. This only applies to bowl games. For the CFP, I'm free to change my mind whenever I want to...

The Big 12 needs to add 2 teams so they don't have this issue in the future. Bowlsby looks like a fool right now.

Zero backbone. #baylor

j/k guys!

The Big12 Conference. Sticking a finger in the wind since 1996. It all depends on your interpretation of the word "self-resolvable".

If you weren't already convinced that the Big 12 was a joke, here's your confirmation. The entire conference should go ahead and follow UAB's lead and just throw in the towel.
