If a team is in a conference, they schedule their conference games according to the formula of that conference. Then, their non-cpn games should be selected like the NFL does...based on strength of schedule. At the end of the season, we'd see REAL worthy teams. For example, Wosconsin whined last year because they were 12-1 but left out. However, they played NOBODY. Clausen's high school team would have gone 10-2 against their schedule. How would Wisc do if they had to play Auburn or LSU for example. How would Penny State do without Temple and the assorted zeros they play? Would Louisville be ranked with their schedule. At the very least there should be NO 1A and 1AA games. It might save Lloyd's job for another year.
