Message: [QUOTE="OttoinGrotto, post: 5244346, member: 297"] It's not rational because you *think* they're better and *believe* they would beat Army, which is unknowable about any future single game outcome, so it is extremely irrational. We're just used to accepting that irrationality. I'm saying, we've over weighted on subjective criteria when we have *some* objective criteria, and a 12 team playoff and how it resolves the champion provides room for more acceptance of the objective criteria we do have. The concept of identifying the 12 *best* teams to include in the playoffs is the wrong standard because it's subjective. The concept of identifying the 12 *most deserving* teams based on their ability to win games is more objective. And the beauty of the playoff is that the winner objectively deserves to be named the champion. [/QUOTE]
