I'd you dont win out you dont deserve the spot but even if you do the G5 champ gets the spot because they are garenteed a spot if they are one of the top 6 conference champs.
We dont compete with G5 for the playoffs as an indy. We compete with all the P5s who wont let a G5 in. We are below every single P5 when it comes to who will get in the playoffs if the records are the same or even within 2 games of the same.
