Then it is the conferences that are dumb especially the one bid leagues. Doesn’t mean anything to the P5 conferences their regular season champ is getting in no matter what.


The conference tournaments are revenue generators. THAT'S why the conferences like them. So in order to draw more interest in the tournament (i.e. money via attendance, TV contracts, advertising, host city bids, etc) the tournaments have to be meaningful. Particularly for the one-bid leagues.

Yes, it is silly (especially for the one-bid conferences) to ignore a full season of work and but some much emphasis on 3-4 days in March, but there is more that goes into that decision than "fairness" or merit to the teams. The league is trying to make money.
