Final 2006 D-I19 Register

Although, the Register didn't produce the same #1 versus #2 matchup as the BCS, it's actually a great outcome for the Register considering that team was Michigan. There was enough controversy this year that a number of teams could have played in the title game based on a flawed system, so we'll take that as a successful first season considering some revisions need to be made for 2007.

I recognize some of the rankings seem a little out of place. One of the things I have already revised based on trial and error from my first season that will be implemented in 2007 is decreasing the number of points added under the win category. There was too much of a gap between a win versus a top 10 and top 25 team just as an example. It resulted in skewed results the further down the line you go. For example, my alma mater - Middle Tennessee - should have been ranked a little lower and a school like San Jose State should have been ranked a bit higher. The change will place more of an emphasis on earning points based on the opponent played.
