   The teams with an actual argument that they were unjustly left out will be the   
   G5 teams that are 12-1 with a couple of Top 25 wins but get passed over for a   
   9-3 SEC/B1G team.  Not that they would have won it all, but that they really   
   deserved to be in    
   and got ignored because the money is better with the other choice.   
      
   If OU should have been 12 but is 13 and Ole Miss gets in instead, who cares?
