If the point of football were scoring points, I bet you'd see it eventually.. but it's not... it's to win.
The seeding structure of FIRST through 1998 was based on wins, and you wouldn't see such behavior in one of the those games. But now it's based on points. You could be #1 without ever winning a match (not likely i know, but theoretically possible), unlike football (or any other sports I know of).. And no one said it would be exciting, but simply a strategy for winning by virtue of maximizing your points.
