If Ohio State lays an egg tomorrow then TCU has made their point because that's the spot they should've taken but the committee chose Ohio State even with their QB is injured.
I doubt that's going to happen and it should be a great game but if it does then we know they chose Ohio State in an effort to get more viewers and more Fanbase because we know that certainly played a factor.
Michigan has been the benefit of the large fan base on many occasions in bowl selections so this is no exception for a large school with a large support base versus TCU.
