Anyone that knows the level of Benedict’s “competition” would know that Benedict might just be the worst team in the entire playoff field. The fact that D2 refuses to acknowledge strength of conference and TRUE strength of schedule is laughable.
They are a guaranteed 1st game exit yet they turn a blind eye to the clear imbalance of the field year after year after year.
This is like putting JMU in the college football playoff because they are undefeated.
MAKE THEM schedule heavy hitters in the South to get in. There’s enough local teams to prove it if they really deserve it. Newberry, Limestone, NGU, LR, Wingate, and Valdosta are all within 3 hours. Instead you play Shaw, Edward Waters, and Chowan. What a joke.
Last year this mistake helped leave Newberry, UWG, and a couple much better teams home. This year, it sucks for Wingate and Mars Hill who would both curb stomp Benedict. Hell, even 6-4 UWG would get the job done.
Everybody just go make the easiest schedule possible! Easy to “trick” the NCAA.
