The problem is format of the playoffs. Playing within the district the first two rounds is not the answer. It knocks out many of the top teams too early thus watering down the third round. The logical solution would be seed all the teams at beginning of the playoffs. IMO it makes the playoffs better, and your team is not playing the same opponents every year.

Or at minimum seed the teams in an E and W side of bracket. You can still do a reseed at the final four if you want for semis.
