I would just like to get some opinions on the matter. Are you better playing your best 11 both ways or even if there is a small dropoff between some of the players are you better trying to just play kids 1 way? Obviously I know that if kids are pretty equal than you are better with 2 completely different units but what if there is a dropoff in talent between kid A and kid B. Do you think kid A who is a little fatigued is still a better answer than kid B who is a lesser player. Obviously some schools don't have a choice (most single A schools) and some have no problem fielding two seperate yet very good units (Highlands). Just curious about those schools somewhere in the middle. I'll give my opinion later.

At first I did not like the 2 platoon system, but I am a big fan now. We have seen in many games where the other team can hang for one and a half quarters, and then become gassed and are steamed rolled the rest of the game. I do think some of it is also a better conditioning program than a lot of schools.
