Some unlikely team like Henderson in the West for example will still be alive come 3rd round and they'll get to host a game and make things interesting... I need to look at the pairings again

I think this is what you are getting at I think.

These teams in 6A are currently a combined 14-32 but 2 of them will make the 6A quarterfinals: Christian Co.
Daviess Co.
McCracken Co.
Barren Co.
Central Hardin
North Hardin
Warren Central
Henderson Co.
At least 2 of these teams will miss the 6A Quarterfinals:
Manual
St. X
Ballard
Trinity
To me there is something about this that is just not right.
