Discussion: 65AAA National Championship Game

Why is there not a 65AAA National Championship game? Are the Western National champs to play the Eastern National champs?
There was only one 65-AAA team in the Eastern National's, the Rochester Royals (NY) .. They were the "declared" Eastern Champion, but are not participating in Las Vegas ... There was not, accordingly, a Runner-up to which an invitation to the USA National Game could be offered ... The 65-AAA Division will seed conventionally, #1 through #27, based on the results of the Monday seeding games ... See Rule Book ยง13.4(2)C. on page 71 for additional information ... Good luck! ...
I read the rule that you showed and it states that the National champions would get all the award of a National champion, not a secondary award but a first place award. Per the rule book. I hope that SSUSA does not award a lesser award to a National champion just because the other team didn't show up. I hope that you are in agreement with this.
As the Western National AND USA National Champion your team will receive the exact same awards package as though you had played, and won, the USA game (even though it won't be played) ... Why would you presume otherwise?? ... The award ceremony will likely occur on Monday or Tuesday at a time that is mutually convenient to the Director(s) and your team ... Congratulations!
