Also true of you're just a mindless drone cheerleader! LOL

'Puft' got your attention.

That's their only surefire choice really.

Okay, it's alot more clear now. Thanks for the correction. However the committees have ranking rules to follow including the discard of any games you might have vs. teams in lower divisions than D2. I also DO know they compare strength of schedule, common opponents, and so on. We're still right...

The D2 system is far, far superior. Four regions, top four teams in each region get in the bracket. It's all settled by Christmas and doesn't present any undue burden on the schools. D1 should adopt it. That is all I am saying. Imagine that bracket right now, in D1.

Oh boy... If facts are plugged into a computer those facts are now subjective. And if a human gives more weight to certain of those facts, it's really really subjective. By the way here's the sole arbiter of the D1 playoffs: College Football Playoff <--- People making subjective choices. It's...

Yep it's a mess.

No, they didn't. The formula is in place that takes the people and the conference politics out of it. It's not subjective if a formula is used that compares teams based on known and proven factors, such as strength of schedule, record in division, and the whole list of items in the formulas...

Yep if we don't win Sunday night you can stick the fork in us. Was this always a NBC night game, or did they flex us?

That loss to the Deadskins sure looms large.

Well, we know now that for whatever reason, Tony didn't take a pain shot and therefore had no chance to be effective vs. the Eagles the first time. They ARE vulnerable in pass defense. We SHOULD be able to exploit that with a functional Romo.

Since we all know and agree it is impossible to have every team play every other, this is what playoffs are for. You're telling me your team was undefeated and the four teams ranked ahead of it in the region were too? In this case they have tiebreakers. Common opponents, strength of schedule -...

The conferences shouldn't matter. The four top teams from the four regions, should. A conf. championship should be a nice trophy you put in your trophy case, but should guarantee you nothing else.

When you look at how it is done, you see how it works. The top four teams from the four regions, get into the tourney. Period. Regardless of conference, regardless of prominence. DII College Football Rankings - Regional Rankings | NCAA.com See any undefeated teams there not in the top four of...

Umm, no. The power rankings aren't decided on opinion, it's based on record, strength of schedule, many other factors - a entire formula. It's much more objective. The current D1 system still has all the politics and subjectivity of the old one. We at least agree 4 teams isn't anywhere near...

In D2 the conferences don't matter. You get into the tournament based on your regional power rankings - this guarantees every region of the country gets at least one representative team in the tourney. It's a true national championship.

Pretty sure it's only 16. That's my count, on the brackets. 2012 bracket where my West Texas Buffaloes got to the semifinals: 2012 Division II Football Tournament | NCAA.com EDIT: Yeah you're right it is 24 teams, eight have the first round bye. That makes a better case for 16 D1 teams...

D2 national championship game is Dec. 20. They get it all handled before Christmas and there's no doubt left who the legitimate national champion is.

Div. 2 does 16 teams if I'm not too much mistaken. Doesn't hurt it at all.

Already it is obvious a four team "tournament" playoff is toweringly inadequate. Should be 16 teams, minimum.
