Slim possibility that they'd actually select one, but it's now there:

Pretty soon they'll be giving every team a trophy at the end of the season for participating.

Well, OsU and texas already kinda sorta do that anyway for getting second place in a division or sharing but not really winning a division title. The rest of the country just hasn't caught up to their progressive ways of thinking yet.

Why don't they just make it a coin toss? You win the toss, you're in!

This is sad on so many levels.

You have to have top five APR. With the dum-dums they have going through the whorn program, they'd still be ineligible, even with 5-7 :mack:

This is the sacred tradition that playoff advocates are supposedly trying to destroy? Sounds like the sooner the better.

It was always there. If there wasn't enought teams to fill the bowls a bowl would have picked a 5-7 in the previous years. Now they just made it official.
