Yeah, because using just strength of schedule works perfectly, right?
The cap can just be decided by using the 75th percentile of all margins of victory, There: easy, reasonable, number-driven. But news flash: blind obedience to numbers can only take you so far. True success requires a combination of objective data and subjective eyes to manage that data. Coming up with an accurate rankings system is no different. If you disagree with that, then your brain and mine have a fundamental disagreement that will never be solved.

I agree, and I don't think it's hard most years to figure out which teams are the best 3-4 in each reason. They're usually the ones who are undefeated or one-loss squads. It gets somewhat harder with the 5-7 picks as you get into some two- and even three-loss teams on occasion. I think there probably the best guide is to look back and see what conferences or teams have the best playoff results over the years. That can change, but if you're a lightly regarded conference the onus is on you to have your top team win once in a while when they get into the playoffs. There are provisions now, I believe, to get an eighth- or ninth-rated squad with a good record into the playoffs if some of the other conferences have multiple teams, but the NE 10 was so down in our region that they couldn't even qualify anyone under that criterion this season.

Obviously, there would be a margin cap/reduction past a certain threshold. Not hard. Thought this would be clear for any margin of victory implementation.
This talk about scores in the hundreds is silly. Some of you need to use your brains sometimes.

You're struggling with this whole comprehension thing more than usual. I don't insist that SOS is a determination of the better team; but it's what the NCAA uses.
So your formula is D2football poll plus margin of victory? Doesn't that last part just justify Denny running up the score on Cheyney and Mansfield?
THANK YOU!!!!!!

There is talent to tap in New Jersey...which has no D2 teams. This will all take more money. Pee Sack West schools need to stop believing the withering WPIAL is going to keep feeding them players. Pee Sack schools one needs to get tuition lowered...then charge In State rates to all out of state student athletes...to compete with the Northwest Misery and Grand Valley's who can use state taxpayer funds to pay for schollies. Or maybe have Pee Sack publics be allowed to use state funding for athletics.
