That record is deceiving though. Findlay and Royal Challengers punt all their games.

Unquestionably facts are facts, but the Big 8 is spotted 2 wins every week. We obviously look at the interleague record as a means of deciphering Divisional power. In regard to Divisional power at the top, I think it's more telling that the top 4 teams in the Great 8 won (with the #3 seed in the Great 8 beating the #3 seed in the Big 8 by 20+).

Or, 4 out of 6 teams that actually try in the Great 8 won.

Big 8 versus Great 8 is to determine which has the harder division to be in. So definitely the lower teams count in this as well. So if teams are giving away wins all season that would tend to make it an easier division and the better teams would have to make up for that. I do see what you are trying to saying regards to the top tier teams, and I would tend to agree to that fact as well. But I think if you gave Tachenko or San Diego Eagles the choice to be in the Great 8 and swap with, lets say, Georgia Tech they would definitely do it. (well maybe not Tachenko since he has been in the Big 8 for 15 seasons so it might hope some intangible memories)

Perhaps they would swap for the purpose of avoiding relegation, or to be in a more favorable position if they need to play in Relegation games, but if their intent is making the playoffs, I doubt they would make the switch.

And yes, the Big 8 definitely has sentimental value to Tachenko. It's where his heart is.

My roster has been stagnant for a while, so I've decided to make some changes. Three Rogues are up for sale right now. Please bid on them so I can become rich and defeat all of you.
