[QUOTE="dressedcheeseside, post: 99106, member: 77"] A huge flaw in the system is that they weigh SoS and quality wins in their reasoning. The problem with that is that those two things are highly subjective and ultimately depend on original rankings which are based mostly on reputation/opinion. It all boils down to preconceived notions. If the committee members have a high preconceived notion about you and your schedule, you fare a lot better than if they don't. That doesn't reflect reality and it's not fair. The way I see it, there is [I]no fair way to determine the best team in the nation[/I]. The best you can do is crown a [I]champion[/I]. There's a difference. An overall champion should be decided from a list of champions, iow, the conference champions. I used to be in favor of a wild card selection, but that just brings up more 'politics'. Just invite the winners of each conference and if you happen to be a good team that doesn't win it, you can blame [I]yourself[/I] for not winning your conference and not random opinion. aside: In medieval Ireland they crowned a High King. The High King was selected from the provincial kings. You had to be a king to become a king. [/QUOTE]
