Obviously the current ranking algorithm wouldn't work, but there are serious issues with it already (ie team 40 being ranked 12th)
Also this is pretty typical in football, where most of the match ups are boring, but a few are very interesting. I think it would add to the competition rather than retract from it as you are implying.
Once again, assuming the current ranking algorithm it obviously wouldn't work for the reasons you're already stating... then again the middle of the pack are already becoming captains in many regionals this year.
had we not hit the estop we would have been a captain with only 2 tubes hung all competition....
