That's what I'm saying.

Why the hell would we want to encourage upsets? More critically, why would we want to encourage silly outcomes.

An 'upset' as we define it is generally nothing more than a higher ranking team losing to a lower ranking one. Well hell, all those really are are indictments on the rankings more often than not.

I want a true outcome - that's all. I'm not the least bit interested in adjusting the rules to make it easier for inferior squads to have a hot half, get a fluke bounce and then hold on for dear life.
