Chuck Carlton, Big 12 beat writer for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, answered questions about the league during a live chat Wednesday. Here are some highlights:
Q: If the Big 12 misses out on the playoff again, will this spark an actual debate on expansion for the playoff and for the league?
Carlton: Great question. If the Big 12 misses this season, it would 2-for-5 on the College Football Playoff, which isn't a great percentage. The Big 12 has already been down the expansion road with a very public exploration.
