I believe if you play a team that made the playoffs in 15,or 16 you get 3 bonus points
Exactly!!! Hardee already has 18 points..I believe if you play a team that made the playoffs in 15,or 16 you get 3 bonus points
The teams that have on their schedule only 2 teams making the playoffs have a very uphill battle.
I can already the kids won't understand this new system. I'm not really sure the coaches will either. Glad I don't work at FHSAA!
Seems to me that the coaching staff has an obligation to schedule to begin with as many points as they possibly can. If they schedule cupcakes its on them not the kids. To be honest, once the bugs are worked out, I believe this new system will work pretty well.Yeah but they could have an outstanding season and still not make the playoffs over a team that started out with more points. How is that far?

Just in the last 2 years I have seen 3 team district personally get it handed to them. I think the points system will help say a 3rd place team from a tougher district get in when in years past they are at home. It should also help with say the higher seeds playing games in semi finals rather than 2nd round matchups with opponents they have already seen.
You could also have good teams that lose 1-2 games that have made the playoffs year in and out miss out starting this year.
At this point win your district and you are in the drivers seat. Anything less is leaving your destiny in someone else's hands
Thanks for both links Tony. Like others, I'm skeptical of the new system, but the old one was far from perfect. Hopefully the FHSAA will have some number guys available at the conclusion of the regular season. Your fav team could be in at 9 games, then out after 10th game if many of your in season opponents fall in final regular season contest and it effectively downgrades your previous winning points. Hope that wasn't too damn confusing

Are district winners seeded 1-4 ?
Can a 9-1 district runner up MNW host 10-0 district winner PB Heritage if the Bulls have more end of season points ?
Thanks gatorman. I see teething problems associated with this extensive change. And rooting for all your in season opponents is UnAmericanNo, district winners are seeded 1-4 and then by wildcard points. 5-8 is the next 4 teams in the region by wildcard points. If you are a district champ with 40 points, but a district runner-up has 45 points. District champ still seeded higher and keeps home field advantage.
Advantages and disadvantages. That about sums it up! At this point (not to pun), I think this system is going to be net better in the long run once the kinks are worked out.
