I see this as good change for TU. I don't think its likely we win the conference and fail to receive a top 125 ranking. This gives TU a better chance to receive an at large since conference winners that are not in the top 125 won't be taking the bottom spots.
I knew this was going to happen the moment they decided to play the game in Arkansas. This state is a curse and needs to be nuked off the face of the planet.
