                Tom needs to just get in while the iron is hot. No bullying, no demanding (besides sunday play). Offer to pay the exit fee of any other team of the Big 12's choice. Be creative. JUST GET IN.

                          Tensions boil over despite vital win as Baylor ponders potentially missing playoff

                          There on the back of a make-shift stage, set up in the middle of McLane Stadium and surrounded by what felt like half of Central Texas, Baylor football coach Art Briles ran into Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby.


                          Suddenly this wasn't just another feel-food league trophy presentation.


                          Briles, 59, began an animated and at times heated conversation with the commissioner, using a pointed finger and waved hands to punctuate a clearly impassioned argument. Bowlsby didn't back down, even as Baylor defensive coordinator Phil Bennett got involved too.


                          Bowlsby was outmanned and perhaps out-argued though by Briles, a product of the little old West Texas town of Rule, where he long ago learned not to take any crap from anyone.


                          Depending on whom you ask, Baylor earned either the full league championship or a share of it with TCU on Saturday, courtesy of an excellent 38-27 victory over Kansas State.


                          Bowlsby is in the co-champion camp. Indeed, just hours earlier he'd presented TCU with their own trophy in a similar ceremony 90 miles up I-35 in Fort Worth. Briles thinks the title should belong fully to Baylor. Both teams are 11-1 overall and 8-1in the league, but Baylor beat TCU head-to-head back in October.
                          [...]

                          "As the Big 12 states, there's 'One True Champion,'" Briles shouted, like a revved up politician. "It's the Baylor Bears! It's the Baylor Bears!"


                          The crowd down here, sans the commissioner of course, went nuts, roaring their agreement into the crisp, clear Texas night.


                          Whether anyone up in Grapevine was listening is to be determined.


                          OK, Baylor can be the "one true champion" but they are still not going to the playoffs.
