Tech deserves to go as much as any other 6-6 team. It would actually probably be better if a team needed a decent record to go, but that's not the case. Teams that are plainly far worse than us are going already.
As far as the waiver, everything points to how the NCAA got rid of the waiver after UCLA. The current rules do talk about waivers for schools playing non-qualifying FCS teams and for conference champions with losing records, but not for 6-7 teams.
Swofford is on the phone right now negotiating. If we can't fill the Music City Bowl because of the championship game, it costs the conference money. Without us there are only 5 eligible teams. Otherwise, we should be declining the championship game.
