With new playoff alignment where you play district first 2 rounds, its guaranteed either LCA or Somerset out by round 2. Also guarantees either Breathitt or Beechwood makes it to round 4 barring an upset from a team in districts 5-8.

Unreal!

And I hope no one takes my posts about some teams in 2A as me trashing those teams or those kids. I think most of you know me well enough by now to know I wouldn't do that, at least I hope you do. For instance, I've been pretty tough on Breathitt County because of their schedule. Dont have a thing in the world against them. I know one of their players on the line and I think the world of him and hope he gets a ring. All I'm saying is I just dont agree with this system. No way should LCA or Somerset be knocked out of the playoffs by the second week because of a tough district when other teams that's not near as good makes it to the semi's because of weak districts and weaker schedules.

And to show you I'm fair about it in my thinking, the same goes for Belfry. The Pirates play in a district that in recent history has been bad. So why should they advance to the later rounds when you got a district like district 4 with CAL and DeSales in it, two of the best in 3A IMO, but one wont make it past round 2 because of a strong district. I just think there has to be a better set up to reward teams, and fans, and get the best teams playing in the semi's and beyond.
