That’s my point. Doing away with districts, you could keep/create regional rivalry games. It would still be difficult for the top tier 1A schools to get larger schools to schedule them…but I think it would help with the RPI issues that the top tier teams have at every class level. As for this game…

I feel bad for the young kids on Fairviews roster. I know a lot of them in the freshman class and they are absolute dogs and scrappy ass fighters. Die hard eagles. I give them credit for that. As much as I can’t stand Fairview, I respect the few families that have been there through it all. This is another small roster reliant upon underclassmen to lead the charge. It’s no easy task. Hopefully Raceland rests their injuries and doesn’t push the envelope with any of them. It won’t be needed. Not sure if Fairview can score in this one.

But ….you gotta make sure your five team conference is strong. Look what playing in a crappy conference did to Ironton. I think 5 teams is perfect….it guarantees you 4 close games a year. But…..we are just dreaming cause I really can’t see the state changing anything
