I still like it...but will produce some odd results....wont always be an divisional match up in the first 2 rds...in fact I'd think the crossover would happen regularly.

Yeah, that's odd. I wonder if they'll only do the higher-ranked 1 vs lower ranked 4 if both wild cards are from the same Division?
