Chuck Carlton, Big 12 beat writer for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, answered questions about the league during a live chat recently. Here are some highlights.
Question: Was dropping TCU out of the AP Top 25 a little too drastic?
Carlton: Maybe but not really. Look the Horne Frogs were No. 17 after the loss to Ohio State then lost at Texas with a whole lot of eyeballs on that game. Unlike the Ohio State game, TCU didn't look great in losing to Texas. Plus, there were a whole of other surprises and teams knocking on the door of the Top 25.
