After the dust in the GSC settles next week there will likely be a good team with three losses on the outside of the PO looking in. This could be West Florida which is currently, statistically the third best team in D2, or West Alabama the tenth best. Every conference in our region will have at least one legitimate team in the PO, so I'm not suggesting we snub a conference rep. Our issue is we have a couple conferences that will have some 2 loss teams that are clearly not as good as a 3 loss West Florida or West Alabama.
I suggest that a deficiency in our PO system allows weaker teams to slip into those 5 to 7 slots. There has to be a way to get the best remaining teams in the region, into those three slots. If there are any 1 loss teams left, they should be given a remaining slot first, after that whether it's 1 slot or 4, the best remaining teams should get in.
My issue is with the 2's & 3's. once a team loses a second game they should fall into the performance indicator matrix. It will be clearly evident once you run the numbers that a 3 loss team could be much better than a 2 loss team.
I propose:

I propose:
- The current formulation be used to select the best team from each conference if they are in the region's top 10
- All undefeated and one loss teams should also be given a slot
- After that the remaining slots be given based on performance indicators.
