I think its all based on Conference and Conference Standing, so if you see Conference=1 in the bowl.xml that would be the equivalent to the ECC in the default teams.xml (ACC in Slybelles mod I believe). From there it goes on wherever the teams finished in the standings, there might be a little more to it than that but I'm pretty sure thats the gist of it.
I understood that much. But I noticed a number of games have Conference=O. Does that mean that the teams will be at-large teams picked in sequence based on their final rankings? And what happens when it has Team "65" rather than Team" " Does that mean that Notre Dame (Team 65) will be the preferential pick for that game?
