Not to insult anyone by any means, because i'm sure 1,000 different possibilities have been looked at as far as rescheduling and the like, but this just doesn't seem right to me that the defending champ will most likely be eliminated from the opportunity to defend their title due only to scheduling issues...they've played a tougher schedule and I believe deserve the right to play for a title...so my question is this: Since it would appear that *most* of those teams playing in the early Saturday games wouldn't be in contention (unless i'm missing someone/something) for the top 4, why not bump those games up and possibly have that final morning game played at a location other than The Cage? That way, you can have two early semifinals, and a no-kidding final matchup later that evening. I'm sure all teams involved would rather play their way into a final, than be 'seeded' based off points when the strength of schedules are nowhere near equal (even if that means getting home a little later Saturday night).
Again, i'm not trying to be overly critical at this point, it just seems like this would be a more fair solution...thoughts?
