Sorry for the confusion. I don't think that I ever advocated an auto bid
THIS year. I'm with you, Greenie. After a couple of years once they are all
D-1 and coincidentally (hopefully) have played some teams from the
established conferences. (Assuming, of course, that they can get the
games.) But at that juncture, an auto bid regardless of whether or not it
goes to 14 or 16 teams.
This year, would I throw out QC if they keep their PWR where it is or
slightly better? Well, I wouldn't, but then I am biased.:-):-) I think
reasonable folks can agree to disagree on that one and still be friends.
