[Gridiron_Raid]

No team should have to travel 3.5 hrs. KHSAA needs to define reasonable travel and any game which requires travel time outside of that definition should be played on a neutral field which is equidistant between the 2 schools. 

Good luck to East Carter, but a 3.5 hr. bus ride puts the team at a huge disadvantage.

It’s the third round, teams do it all the time and by the third round it should be fine. A team should not be punished for being good and have to travel, nor should a team be awarded for being bad and not have to travel far. 

Bell lost to rock so they had to travel, LC lost to belfry so they had to travel all in the second round about 3 hours. The states that have the neutral site games in the playoffs have sometimes 7-9 hour trips (texas, florida, some parts of michigan) and they don’t have RPI for the playoffs it’s strictly bracketed where being the better team doesn’t matter, so home field can’t be decided.
