    Power Points System

    Biggest issue with 8-man point system is they only use three tiers for 8-game schedule. Win 6-8 is 50 points, win 3-5 it's 45 and win 0-2 it's 40. Then losses are too close in points to wins 38, 33, 30. They need to go to the % system like every other sport and create more spread for wins and...

    Class D-2 Playoff Projection ***All Games Final***

    Man. This new playoff format is gonna be crazy. Looks like you could have HSF play Osceola in the round of 16 (8/9 game) and then the winner of that playing FCSH in the quarterfinals. Amazing.

    Class D playoff system is the laughing stock

    I'd not argue this point. The other thing that happens is you can have a 40-point win and a 38-point loss. That makes it pretty easy for a 2-6 team and a 5-3 team to be "similar." The 8-man coaches can fix or change if the want, but they don't. This doesn't happen in 11-man. The worse win is 41...

    C1: Boys Town is not in the field. Arlington won that district. C2: Hastings St. Cecilia is ahead of North Bend Central do to tiebreaker (division 1 teams played).

    D-2 Bracket

    Lawrence is west of Giltner and I think you could make a case for Riverside (Cedar Rapids) also being west of Giltner just eyeing it on a map

    Football D1 Bracket Prediction

    I so wish the 8-man coaches would fix their playoffs so that we can get rid of loaded sides of the bracket. The fix is simple: keep the first round as it is for geography purposes blowouts; then re-seed the 16-teams and start the playoffs. This would get rid of loaded sides and, more...

    Football High seeds hosting playoff games.

    I think it's amazing we talk about this every single year when there is only one game maximum in the current set up that a 1 or 2 seed would have to travel. One game. That's it if you are a 1 or 2 seed. Given smaller school athletic budgets, this system won't change.

    Football Teams that just missed playoffs

    The other great thing the 8-man coaches are Doug next year is not splitting classes until AFTER the ineligible teams are accounted for. So that will help as well.

    Football Teams that just missed playoffs

    You can just keep the timeline exactly the same as now with 8-man playing games Thursday, Wednesday, Tuesday, Monday. Then finals. I kind of like that the 8-man coaches use the old format and give small town football it's one night during the playoffs. If they played on Fridays they'd get little...

    Football Teams that just missed playoffs

    I note, for you all harping on the bad teams who made the playoffs last year, that Burwell, would not have made a 16-team field. Won the whole shooting match. The only issue you have is the first round is called the playoffs. If the 8-man coaches did the right thing it would be this. - Keep the...

    Yutan

    Happened to us my senior year (when Christ was a carpenter). No districts then, but we had two preseason forfeits (Giltner and Bradshaw) and made the playoffs having played seven games. My dad had a team that had an opponent which forfeited their schedule on the first day of practice, NSAA gave...
