[QUOTE="IlliniPuck99, post: 1217168, member: 222865"] For one, match play is just much more exciting and entertaining to watch in my opinion (and I feel many share similar sentiments). Secondly, think about the flip side to your argument. Say you have the best player in college golf by far and they outshoot the entire field by a wide margin, but your remaining four players are pretty average. Another team has all five of their players shoot better than your team's average four, yet loses because your one stud is playing out of his mind. Would you say your "team" is better than the other then? Match play makes all 5 players count and emphasizes depth top to bottom. [/QUOTE]
