The downside is that the other 37 teams know that they are already out, and they will be bummed.

I like this idea. Isn't it the same way FIRST used to handle this area a few years ago? During our team's rookie year at the "Nationals" (at that time) at Epcot, this is how it was done. It makes sense and avoids most of the concerns of doing it. Also, it should be very clearly communicated in the Awards Section of the documentation.
