Re: 2012 NCAA Tournament: Bracketology
It seems to me what you're really disagreeing with is that the committee has flexibility, but you don't agree with the way flexibility is exercised, namely by forbidding first round intra-conference matchups. That's the one piece of flexibility in adjusting the strict 1 v 16, 2, v 15 ... matchups they have that they consistently exercise. Or did I misunderstand what you were proposing? I think your point of view is reasonable, but I do like the no intraconference first round matchups rule. To me, part of the charm of the playoffs is to see some different teams play each other.
Also, if the PWR is not definintive enough to say "This is the #8 team." "This is the #9 team," then in my view, it's not definitive enough to say that BC is a prohibitive #1.
