It’s the fairest way. Or at least the least subjective. Especially when 1 team is undefeated and 2 others have 1 loss (and one of those losses was head to head with another playoff team)

ok, we'll base it on records.

Why does Liberty not get into the playoff?

Don't say they play a softer schedule in a weaker conference, because we're basing it on records so it's the least subjective.

ETA: I've long advocated for a bigger playoff, because 4 is way too small and deserving teams are left out. Thankfully, the 12 teams playoff with some auto bids and some at-large bids (like March Madness) will eliminate much of the subjectivity, or at least limit it to the 12/13 distinction.
