Here's why the CFP committee still doesn't respect the Sooners

Chuck Carlton, Big 12 football beat writer for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, answered questions about the league during a live chat recently. Here are some highlights.

Question: Why does the CFP committee still disrespect the Sooners?

Carlton: You're never going to get a straight answer from the committee, but here are a couple theories. 1. Defense. The committee tends to be like dad support group in the Progressive commercial telling strangers that defense wins championships. Nobody notices when Oklahoma puts up 31 in the first-half on a legit defense in TCU.
