Friday at 09:42 PM5 days West Orange enrollment is 659 kids and they are D4. Seems kind of small right?
Friday at 09:48 PM5 days dude this is the state final you take the fucking pointsFor real. A dumb decision and an even dumber play call.
Friday at 09:58 PM5 days That kid throws right-handed and kicks left-footed. I don't know if I've ever seen that in my life.  Fud Jr plays soccer left footed, dribbles a basketball left handed, shoots right handed, does everything baseball RH
Friday at 10:15 PM5 days Sun rises, sun sets, Scott Surratt wins another state title - his 11th title at Carthage.Â

Friday at 10:29 PM5 days no shit this morning's game was the only competitive one so far and that was through offensive futility

Saturday at 03:12 AM5 days 6-0 at halftime. So much for offensive fireworks, but I don’t care. I like these games where defenses are knocking the shit out of dudes.Â

Saturday at 04:43 AM5 days Not the most exciting games today, but I respect the defenses of all 3 winning teams.
Saturday at 01:47 PM4 days Damn, to go 15-0 like lone star did and to score 6 fucking points in the state game has to be brutal.Â

Once you get to the semifinals, seed the remaining four teams in each class-division 1-4. One plays four, two plays three as usual and find a spot half ass in between the schools for the semi final games. All the final games still played at Jerry World. It probably wouldn't change a whole lot of match ups, but maybe just enough to make things more even in the finals instead of the semi finals.  Just a quick look at the 2x 6A divisions would have given something like Allen vs Lake Travis and Duncanville vs North Shore in one set of semi-finals. Div II would have had South Lake Carroll vs Vandergrift and DeSoto vs C.E. King for their semis. Assuming chalk, then Jerry World would have Allen vs Duncanville for the state championship instead of the 800th rendition of Duncanville vs. North Shore. Div II would have had SLC vs DeSoto in the finals. Imagine that semi final game was in Jerry World instead of Mansfield.

Saturday at 02:42 PM4 days I like it that there is zero subjectivity in the matchups. Keeps it clean and whole. No manipulation. Everyone knows how the slate works before the season even start. There is no perfect set-up, but I dare say this one is fair(est.) That's probably why the powers that be will not be able to resist fucking it up.

That's probably why the powers that be will not be able to resist fucking it up. I just think by the time you get to the semis any "upstarts" have been weeded out so subjectivity isn't going to be a big deal by that point. But yeah, you gotta stick with the current format until the Region Finals.
Saturday at 02:49 PM4 days Seeding in high school is bullshit though. There should not be any subjective rating or ranking in play at all. There are even more non-commonalities across teams than there are in college, and that process whips the sports' ass at the FBS level. Edited Saturday at 02:49 PM4 days by Iceman
Saturday at 02:53 PM4 days I'm admittedly traditional AF, so there's that piece too. I just don't trust "football minds" to be unbiased. There's far too much proof otherwise.
Saturday at 02:54 PM4 days Fine. Let's keep having some of the best match ups in the semi finals when no one other than fans of the teams and the real hardcore followers can see them instead of trying to have them on the biggest stage with the most eyeballs available. I probably wouldn't make this change for anything other than 5A and 6A any way. Leave 4A and down as they are. Edited Saturday at 02:55 PM4 days by Fudge Nuggets
Saturday at 02:58 PM4 days I would disagree that 6A doesn't have the best matchups possible today. IDGAF about Allen or any other teams' pedigrees. This is how the slate played out, and those are some badass matchups. That doesn't mean if a game doesn't end up 38-35, that it wasn't a great game. I disagree with a lot of that mindset coming from this thread in the past few days too. Hell, before long we start slating the games just for TV audiences. Fuck that. The current system is great. Odd years, D-1 plays first. Even years, D II goes first. It works. Everyone knows what to expect. Edited Saturday at 03:00 PM4 days by Iceman

Saturday at 03:37 PM4 days Just now, Bevo said:  And finals are always in Dallas? They haven't been in Dallas for a long time. Hey, I was cool with the rotation of the games, but the powers that be didn't like the difference in attendance in San Antonio & H-Town. Personally, I favor the old neutral site games; but that ain't happening again in our lifetimes unless Jerrah changes his positive business relationship with UIL or another foundational piece in the current setup changes too. I also feel it favors some spoiled ass DFW fans who never have to travel for games; but the teams/ towns that travel really DGAF any more. They have adjusted. the big city fans will never know what that is like. I went to the games last year and enjoyed it.  I like it for the athletes. They want to play there, and that payoff is enough for me. Having the games at JerryWorld is still special. and for those of us who can't get there, Victory+ is kind enough to share the broadcast for free. It's a great 4 days of football.

Saturday at 05:26 PM4 days huge hit by SOC sophomore LB, followed by a sack on 3rd down. Randle punting.
Saturday at 05:37 PM4 days SOC makes it 14-0, but Randle’s star player returns the KO 100 yards for a td. 14-7.
Saturday at 06:01 PM4 days 53 minutes ago, Derka said: so who is supposed to win this SOC vs Randle game? I’m guessing SOC.
Saturday at 06:18 PM4 days I came into today expecting a clean sweep by the Dallas teams. One half in, nothing has changed my mind (other than we will have four totally different teams playing the rest of the day).
