    They're gonna lose this week, so I wouldn't worry about that.

    Somebody has to use their subjective opinion to select the at-large teams in I-AA, II and III, which is a big part of the process of determining the champion.

    In I-AA, half the field is automatic berths.

    Hence the wording, "to select the AT-LARGE teams."

    My point is, no system is perfect. Even the divisions with playoffs have some form of human input to select the participants. And with the expansion of the I-AA playoffs to 24 teams, that human input is increasing.

    Sorry to bring back a two-week-old thread, but ... this is another example of my frequent amusement by September's assumptions.

    I'm looking at you, Bob Davie. And others. ;D
