72birdman Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I didn't realize that California only had three divisions. The playoffs must start in August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72birdman Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 I must be missing something. I think he was looking at the number of divisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
born2reign Posted December 21, 2007 Share Posted December 21, 2007 NFLHS.com will produce a state champions list as well that is more complete. There are more champions in a few states (like New York and California). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubledeuce Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I do not think that California has state champions. I believe they have sectional champions. With divisions inside of those sections. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhoozYoDaddy Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Geez, why do Mass. and New Jersey even bother to keep score? Every other team in those states gets a championship trophy. Hmmm...sounds like the direction the KHSAA would like to take us. Let's make everyone feel "included"..."let everyone in the playoffs" "it will be so much fun!!!"

82Falcon Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 A very few states seperate Public and Private. Most divide by classes and some have divisional differences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKBLUE1964 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 New Jersey sends only 8 teams to the playoffs except for the Group I non-public and only 3 teams make with the #1 seed with an bye. Also there is only about 20 schools in each group. And there is over 400 high schools in the state. http://www.njsiaa.org/SPORTS/Football.aspx Massachusetts is like California they have no statewide Champion but one Champion for the Eastern part of the state(Boston) and then have the Central Champs play the Western Champions to determine the other Champion. http://miaa.ezstream.net/index.cfm?itemid=1871 California has only 3 State Champs for over 18,000 high schools. :scared: http://www.cifstate.org/sports/state/football/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's still a lot of schools for only 3 state champions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird23 Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 I noticed that Texas still has state championship games to be played! Looks like two or three are slated for today... now that is a long season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think these teams are selected somehow, not sure, anyone know how it works? I don't think there is playoffs except for sectionals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terp Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Not all states that separate public and private list the private schools. For example, there is no listing in Maryland for private schools. Those schools do not compete for state championships. Most compete for conference championships (in conferences consisting totally of private schools). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryland may be an exception but it is obvious from the scores that most states have the publics and privates playing together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
born2reign Posted December 23, 2007 Share Posted December 23, 2007 Maryland may be an exception but it is obvious from the scores that most states have the publics and privates playing together. There are several states that seperate the two. The rivals list did not include the seperate private school championships for several states. Again, nflhs.com will produce a more complete list.
