Thanks to @Jason Frakes for the bracket

And cross-bracketing changed what?

And cross-bracketing changed what?

 

Not a darn thing. Still have

 

Mayfield

OCath

Desales

CAL

 

In the West

And cross-bracketing changed what?

 

Swapped Glasgow for Walton Verona, pretty much all that happened. Cross-Bracketing in 2A the way it lays out geographically doesn't make any sense.

Agree Jumper....only thing I can see in our benefit is that we don't have to travel to the Tennessee border for a game like we did a couple of years ago (Monroe Co. .I believe) ...a long drive....saw more deer then I could count....

I meant more so out of the top 5 or 6. Which side is more heavy. Who’s Gonna have the toughest battles in that third and fourth round?

I don't like how the playoffs are set up. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love it and will be watching games and following closely, but... I don't like a system where the same teams meet again in the 3rd round. I'd rather see a system where top 2 teams in district can't possibly meet until the semifinal round.

If they are not going to keep true regions anymore, I am with you on this.

There are 4 regions and 8 districts. So there will be 8 district champions. Only 4 teams meet in the Semi Final. It's impossible for this to happen. It is what it is.

My biased opinion is that the winner of the DeSales/CAL game has the toughest path. That's a QUARTERFINAL game. The winner follows that with a four-hour trip to Mayfield the day after Thanksgiving to even GET to Lexington. No-brainer in my opinion...

The reality is there is no easy path. This class is loaded on both sides. The team that wins 2a this year will have accomplished something monumental.
