For those of you saying only the top 2 teams from each district need to advance, I suggest we ask the following teams how they feel about that: Murray, Clinton County, Owen County, Newport, Union County, CAL, Madisonville-North Hopkins, and Dixie Heights. All were seeded #3 in their district and beat the #2 seed on Friday night.
I do agree with the old way of playing another district the first two rounds. I am sure those districts that were mentioned at the beginning of this thread would agree also. In most of the other sports, the top two teams from the district championship game move on to regions and the top team from regions moves on, with there being 16 regions. Why couldn't you play the other district the first two rounds and the third round being the regional championship with there being 8 regions?
I do like the RPI being used for home field advantage. Those teams that win their regular season games, and played a tough schedule should be rewarded with home field advantage.
