Tim Cowlishaw, sports columnist for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, author of Drunk on Sports and panelist on ESPN's "Around the Horn," answered questions about the Cowboys, Rangers, Mavericks and local college sports in a live chat recently. Here are some highlights:
Year 1 of the new Big 12 Championship game ... what would it mean if it missed out on the playoff yet again? Does that outcome, in any way, get the expansion ball rolling again?
Cowlishaw: Well, they could definitely miss it again. We have been down this road before, but adding a title game does not enhance one's chances of making the CFP.
