I like the idea, with what someone drew up, Vancleave would be battling Pass for the 5-6 spot every year.  I wish the MHSAA would also go back to only taking the top 2 teams in each division to the playoff, tired of seeing 1-9 or 2-8 teams in the playoffs

 

Well if they only took the top 2 then Vancleave would have more difficulty making it in the playoffs. I think 4 is good but I also don’t think it will ever change because of money.

THIS IS IT ^^^ 

 

Expanding to 4 from a region in 2001 was a money grab and it will stay at 4 from a region for the same reason 

 

I'll always be a little bitter about this ... my senior year at Carthage (2000 season) we finished (6-4)(4-2) and were left out in third place only to see the next few seasons of Carthage football teams qualify for postseason with much worse records 🙄

This is also another reason of adding a classification. That is more money the MHSAA makes off of playoff and championship games!

Correct. I'm actually good with the 4 teams. There are gonna be teams that slip in and probably don't deserve it but if you went back to 2 then there would be very deserving teams that get left out more.

Nice to have you. What confuses me was how you had already commented when you created said account.

A good question for this thread - since expansion in 2001 have any 4 seeds won a football state title ??


Much like March Madness, a #4 seed has defeated a #1 seed on numerous occasions because the relative strength between divisions can be very different. 
 

So four teams from each division making the playoffs is like the NBA and does make for some blowouts in the early rounds but the possibility exists that lower seeds can win some of those games. 
 

But make no mistake, it is all about money. 
 

I will continue hammer the point that the regular season should be 10 games and the season should start the Friday of Labor Day weekend!!!

Only issues you run into with that is state championships would be the weekend MS/AL is played and backing that up would mean players missing end of semester exams and what not. 
 

I do agree though, starting in September would be best. They did it for years.
