I like that scenario Wick but if there's one thing that we learn, seemingly each year, is that there will be a couple head-scratchers when it comes to those who get in and get left out.
Remember, this is the same commitee that thinks beating Valpo is a much better test than beating Slippery Rock.
Add in the negotiations that occur behind closed doors by the selection commitee and you'll find getting the exact formula for who's in and who's out is nearly impossible.
We still have work to do, a sound victory will make our case that much stronger and the arguement to leave us out that much weaker. Truth is we left 3 winnable games on the field so now we are at the mercy of others, who have not treated us well in the past.
