Whoa buddy. I was not bragging in any way. I'm not a "fan" of either school. I sat on the Calvary side but pulled for u-high because icant stand the Calvary people.

The ranking system only guarantees the higher seed will be at home in round 1. Both teams split the gate in playoffs plus the home team also has to pay the visiting team a travel expense(not sure of the exact number, but it goes by mileage) so money shouldn't be the deciding factor IMO

If this is all true that makes how they currently do it even dumber than I thought.

Haha. It's cool. There are some real jerks who would be happy for that but that's serious stuff. He was down for 25 minutes.

I wasn't arguing about seeding. And your above quote isn't necessarily true. It would depend on the classification of the teams playing in those games.

My point is to debate all of those "top seed should be at home all the way through". The PowerPoint system is not perfect anyway. If this were college, Alabama and their one loss would automatically travel to Kent St because they went undefeated in the MAC. Strength of schedule plays a small role in Powerpoints.

Well, college doesn't have a playoff and the NFL does. And the NFL does higher seed. Seeding may not be perfect but why frick up other aspects because you know it's imperfect? You just make the overall system worse. There is no reason why certain teams should have to travel.

I'm not following you. I'm not arguing against power point system. Once the power point system decides who the higher seeds are then I think the higher seeds should be home throughout.
