not sure how many here read the college football subReddit, but if don't you missed this gem. (Hope it's OK to quote this here, not sure of the rules.)
"CasualKansas has already beaten TCU. The Horned Frogs just don't know it yet. (self.CFB)

TCU is entering this weekend off a loss, and they get to take out their frustrations on lowly Kansas in Ft. Worth. A realistic score would be 77-3. But here's the thing: no matter how bad TCU pummels the Jayhawks on the field, KU is probably about to deliver a death blow to TCU's hopes of getting back into the playoff, or even just a NY6 bowl.
OSU gets to play ISU, in Ames (a grudge match against a semi-competent team with a great home field advantage that people actually want to watch), and has the chance for signature wins against OU and Baylor. OU gets the toughest schedule with chances for signature wins against OSU, Baylor, and TCU. Two of which are on the road. Baylor gets to get signature wins against OSU, OU, and Texas (who have great name recognition, and count as a decent win even if they're just average this year). All of these teams kicked our asses weeks ago, when no one was really watching.
Everyone else gets there chances for a signature win that could put them over the top and into real playoff contention. But not TCU. Their season is pretty much over. Because Kansas exists. And we exist purely to destroy your season. Not only do the other 3 top teams in the Big 12 get more chances for marquee wins, pretty much every team above them does too because they don't have to play Kansas. Beating Kansas at home almost counts against you at this point. You'd be better off facing a bye week. A quality loss to Ole Miss legitimately counts more than beating us. And because of that, we just ****ed your entire season. You would have to shut out both OU and Baylor to get over the damage we're about to do to your SOS. And what's worse? The worse you beat us, the worse we look. And the more damage it does to you. We are toxic. You may drink our milkshake, but we're the cyanide cherry on top, just waiting for you to take a bite.
So now you get to compete against the other 1-loss teams for that shot for a bowl game after New Years. The Stanfords, the LSUs, the Notre Dames. All of which don't have to play us. All of which get more chances to impress the CFP committee, and I can guarantee you everyone else will. And you get to add a blowout win against a winless team that got their asses kicked by Iowa State to your already uninspiring resume.
So enjoy the Russell Athletic Bowl, Horned Frogs. And have fun pounding us into the ground on Saturday!"
