Was just thinking about how apeshit many of the fans of college football blue bloods would get if something like this happens in the upcoming expanded playoff:
“Let's look at some numbers regarding the 2023 Diamondbacks, who will face the 90-win Rangers in the World Series:
- Arizona not only finished with the worst record of all the 2023 playoff teams, but had a run differential of -17, making them the only playoff team to not have a positive run differential
- They finished 16 games behind the Dodgers, who won the NL West and were swept by the D-Backs in the NLDS
- The D-Backs went 5-20 to open the second half of the season, but were able to turn things around and reach the playoffs”
Just imagining the uproar if some 2 loss squad beats a previously undefeated team or something like that.
