You have a point, my position on the At Large is that if your conference is already represented, you can not be AT LARGE, NO SECOND CHANCES
Agreed. Champions of Power5 get auto-bids, top three non-Power5 champions get in based on SOS. This gives the little guys a chance, as well as provides fodder for the big boys in the first round. A true tournament of champions.
Would the national champions be the Best Team?
That would be impossible to determine due to the fact that "Best" is a subjective term. The entire point of a play off is to have a system select a champion based on objective criteria, and not a best team based on subjective criteria. The Patriots may have been the best team of the 2007 NFL season - but it didn't matter, they don't award trophies for best team, only champions. And we all accept the NY Giants as NFL champions for the 2007 season - well, all of us except Patriots fans. [Because they're the losers]
