Sorry to repost after a post...
The University of Montana lost to Wofford in the I-AA playoffs today. Montana was undefeated in the regular season, and their schedule was seen by many as soft due to weak non-conference opponents.
Wofford exposed the Grizzlies and should be exhibit A for why a playoff system should happen in Division I. Gritty teams with lesser records can go in to hostile environments and defeat overblown teams that play cupcakes.
Would that be detrimental to the SEC, a conference in which a few think is overrated? Possibly, though I would think it may be the other way around. I could definitely see a 3 loss Florida going to West Virginia, or Oregon and being victorious.
