Message: [QUOTE="HRE Otto IV, post: 5265876, member: 5685"] They really need to standardize the selections. All P4 teams should be required to play 10 P4 games and no FCS games. So either 8+2 or 9+1. This will make it easier to rank the conferences and it prevents teams from crap OOC schedules. Bigger schools can still buy two G5 home games a year, but with no FCS they can't completely take a week off. The TV networks will like this too. With the 68 P4 schools all playing 136 OOC G5 games, on average each G5 school will play two P4 teams each year. I am sure some will play 3 and some 1, but for the most part the 68 G5 schools will get two. This prevents G5 schools from going 11-1 without earning it. So the simple 10 P4 and no FCS requirement standardizes records and weeds out pretenders. If Notre Dame had two more P4 instead of two of Northern Illinois, Miami OH, Army are they 12-0? 11-1? 10-2? If Indiana instead of Western Illinois has another P4 are they still 11-1? [/QUOTE]
