I just checked, and Numbers 8 ends at 8:26, at least in the Masoretic (Jewish) text.
I feel retarded when I read these posts.
I just saw a scenario where Niagra doesn't make it.
That's not entirely true. Up to 1994, the committee would select the tournament using RPI, and use PWR to separate teams that had substantially similar RPI on the bubble (something like within 0.01, or within 0.005, or something like that). Subsequent to that, the committee always used pairwise comparisons, but I believe there was a period where they were more inclined to do mini-PWR in the area of the bubble, so it could be more valuable to win PWCs against bubble teams if a team was, itself, on the bubble.
This argument is and always has been purest bull****. That PWR is highly unstable due to the TUCliff (tm) is a fact, that it is a serious flaw in PWR is a fact, and it is a fact that teams can be better off losing due to the TUCliff. It happened as recently as 2008, when ND would have been out with a consolation game tie against NMU but were in with a loss.
Not trying to split hairs but I am pretty sure it was 94%. As a SCSU fan and glass half empty guy, I have been monitoring this very closely.
