To me, when it comes to seeding, the body of work, including being the conference champion and auto-bid team, should outweigh the head to head competition. The head to head competition impact factor should only come into play when trying to decide between two teams in a conference with identical records and deciding who gets into the field of 24, in my opinion. It should NOT be used to determine seeding, especially in this specific case given the disparate nature of the two teams. After all, Maine is 7-1 in the league, and JMU was 6-2.
Yeah, the thing is though, JMU is better.

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
