All lost 1 game--The tie breaker is head to head

Texas beat OK
OK beat TT
TT beat Texas

Around around we go

How did Texas get screwed?-If they had gone to the Big Xll championship game, 
TT would have been screwed.  If TT had gone, OK would have been screwed--The 
regular season does matter- Just that The Big Xll was left with a much deeper 
tie-breaker--i.e. the computer
