The selection committee at one time had a factor of how a school did it it's last 10 games.

This would favor a mid major who was 8-2 down the stretch over a P5 with a 4-4 record. Second bids would happen once in a while for traditional one bid conferences when this rule was in place. But they removed it.

They should require .500 in conference play (including conference tourney) for at-large teams & review of last 10 games for schools on the bubble.
