I know, but that's why I called it a compromise proposal

I want a straight top-4. But if there's going to be a conference champion guarantee, I'd want a top-2 guarantee.

Because the Delany model would have No. 1 Notre Dame out. I know this model would screw ND at some point, but that's going to happen if the conferences get there way. I put this out there as a least-screw option. The Delany model (and maybe even Swofford's, depending upon how you interpret his comments) would be worse.
