Would a team with 21 wins and 1 loss in division 4 get an At-Large bid to Division 3, if they did not win the championship. Why or Why not? Give me evidence.

I read some 21-1 teams did last season. Will depend on point differential.

If you remember me, then I don't care if everyone else forgets.

Is there any way of telling for sure?

A guy named tough actually cataloged every team in d4 that had a chance at bot promotion this season and researched how many spots were available. I didn't pay much attention but iirc 21-1 basically guarantees you a spot.

To be sure you'll have to find it yourself. I think it was in the bb-usa forum in the "toughest d4 league" thread but I could be wrong.

This isn't tough's thread, but another one by Ramquizbo: (230332.1)

He says there will be at least 22 bot promotions from D5 to D4 based on the number of bots in D2 and D3. There are likely to be a few in D4 itself as well. To determine if 21-1 guarantees promotion, you'd need to find out how many 21-1 teams there are who aren't going to promote by winning their league. As I recall, there were close to 50 21-1 or better teams, but many of them should win and promote naturally.

Whoops misread the original question which is about bot promoting from D4 to D3. That certainly doesn't seem guaranteed with a 21-1 record, as only 9 teams will bot promote.

that's where my post came in.

47 of them were ranked. Forgot two


49 teams were 21-1 or better.


yes I don't know yet who got upset and who didn't, but I will get to that once these 2nd Final games are over.


I know for sure I think about 4-7 leagues had two teams with 21-1 or better. though just gotta wait and see ;)
