If they keep winning they deserve the accolades. Lots of "WHAT IFS" here. It's week 6 of this season. I don't see how the big 12 gets shut out again. They'll rotate them in so the good ole boy network is maintained. I really don't think expansion is predicated on some teams being "shut out" of the playoffs. Expansion will be based on tv contracts. The logic doesn't really make sense. For instance, if the big 12 added ucf, usf, cincy and memphis how does this help thier argument? A title game could help a team get in but it could just as easily result in knocking a team out of the playoffs.
