What do you think half the teams in every NCAA sanctioned tournament are? They’re selected, at large, by a committee.

And how are they void of their own stated rules? Their rules are to select the 4 best teams. Now, I do have my opinion on whether the committee is a better way to select teams than letting a system like the BCS select the teams, but to say they're not following their own rules is a farce.


Except you're missing a huge component.

Every conference is represented and there are bylaws that require specific amount of teams to be in , so again the system is rigged.

They do n0ot follow the rules we were told,ie conference championships mean something. Kirby Hocutt just shite and wiped his arse with the rules. Why did you think theres been so much complaining about Bama, Ohio St getting in when the conference champ was left to go somewhere else. In Bama's case they did not even win the division. It is an invitational not a true tournament.

I think you are confusing them with being important and being a requirement. there was never anything that said you were ineligible if you didn't win your conference. There is no "rule" they are failing to follow.

There is never going to be a format that guarantees a spot in the playoffs to an undefeated G5 school. Nor should there be. The best you can hope for is an 8 team playoff with all the P5 conference champs getting an auto-bid and the committee choosing three at-large teams.

And a "true tournament" has nothing to do with how the participants are selected. You may need to figure out what defines a tournament before you start arguing it's not a true tournament. You not liking the method in which the teams are selected does not change that it is, in fact, a 4-team tournament.
