Class 3A Playoff Bracket
#31
Hurricane Storm Wrote:Still not a fan of cross bracketing. I understand it adds variety and there's a chance of better teams advancing. I get that. But this is high school. I'm still from the school of each region having a representative, even though regions make less sense for the current realignment. I know that means the final four teams are not necessarily the best four. Without seeding, there's no way to guarantee the top four will advance. West Virginia uses a seeding method, but I don't think it sparks much interest when the 16th teams travels to the 1 team to get crushed, and it could be a 5 hour or more trip.

I know the best 16 basketball teams don't make the Sweet 16. But each region has an interest in the tournament, because they have a "local" team going for it. I hope cross bracketing doesn't start happening with basketball regions.

I have said it before and will say it again.

Only allowing three teams from each District to advance to the playoffs and seeding the Semi-States is the quickest way to increase competition and eliminate blowouts.

Seeding the entire State does not work from a geographic standpoint, but seeding the Semi-States would achieve most of what you want and getting rid of the 1 vs. 4 game gets rid of numerous blowout games.
