Are #1 vs. #4 Playoff Games Necessary?
#22
Codeman Wrote:I think it is bull! that the #4 has to play the #1 seed because that is such a mismatch, you know David and Goliath for cryin out loud. We are in 3A and this is how it went down.




#1-Belfry VS. #4 Magoffin Belfry wins 42-14

#2-Sheldon Clark VS. #3 PCC Sheldon Clark wins 41- 6

It should have looked something like this...

#1-vs. #2 #3vs. #4 There may have been a totally different outcome.


That's crazy


In the current format....the district winner SHOULD be granted the easiest route to the state quarterfinals....and playing the #4 team is the balancing act. Not sure where you're coming from. In all facets of sports...whether it be college basketball, pro football, pro basketball, baseball...the overall winner of a conference, division, etc,etc, usually without fail receives some preferential treatment in terms of easiest path, home field advantage, etc,etc. Every team has the opportunity to EARN the top spot in their respective district, division, etc. Don't penalize the winner...for being the winner. I would much rather see 3 teams advancing into the playoffs vs. the current 4 team per district format. Too many teams are GRANTED a spot in the playoffs (due to 4 team districts).
