Ok I'm fine with being wrong....my point was and still is that in a conference payoff set-up, playing outside of the conference is not helpful as you aren't battling those teams for a spot. And how bad would it suck to lose a spot to a team that you never even played that year. Maybe if you beat them you go into the playoffs and they go home, but because you didn't play them you'll never know.
This was the argument last summer that wendell young brought to the BOG, it isn't fair in a conference setting to not play all the teams in your conference, because that 2 points against that opponent might just be the difference between making the playoffs over them and going home and them making it.
Perfect example, Charlotte in 2012-2013.
