Without 5th years in the mix, would Cal still have won? Or would ASU have snuck by them (given they wouldn’t have House in that case).

Qualifying would also look a lot different cause then you gotta scratch each 5th year from the psych sheet and recalculate. Too much work to figure it out but I would imagine there would still be multiple teams in the mix just based on talent from all the top teams.
