You would think so but the schedules are easier so the teams achieve better records. And if the strength is only based on just the top teams, then 1M would be considered great with Chaminade leading the charge.

Venice petitioned to be in the metro Class but was denied. They didn’t want to be in the bush leagues.

Yeah these are area titles. Not state titles. You separate the teams by enrollment so they are in different classes. If you are in 3A you can’t win the 1A title. (Unless you are Madison County) so by being separate you can only be considered champ of one class So if you separate the teams by area of the state then technically it’s not a state title. It an area title. The area being rural, metro or suburban.

I have a funny feeling he’s gonna be picking CCC, Berkeley and Homestead

Me too. But classes at the top would make for some fun playoff games.

You could but as a moderator I could edit your picks after the games and just crown him champ regardless of the results

They will be well coached. Really good discipline. They don’t beat themselves. The biggest difference will be athleticism. Cocoa should just spread them out and let their guys do their thing in space.

This should be the semifinal game with the winner playing either Hawthorne or Madison County.

Here’s my picks for the heck of it Hawthorne Cardinal Mooney Chaminade Cocoa Norland St Aug STA Venice Columbus

3rd place game. I (don’t) like it!!

So you guys can private message me your picks before the first game. It will be all 9 title games. Seeding won’t matter since it’s the finals. We will use points in the rural game as the tie breaker. I will post each person’s picks in a locked thread for all to see right before the first game kicks off.

@KeemD321 vs @Perspective for the championship!!!

@KeemD321 8 @Perspective 7 highest seed @nolebull813 7 @DarterBlue2 7

So they must split rural into 2 classes and make region 1 and 2 as a class and 3/4 as the other

So Hawthorne can beat you by 50 it’s ok, but if NFC or UC win by 30 then it’s no fair we need our own special class? give me a break

49-0 and 61-22. Those are the scores of the semi finals games in a class that is told to us that can’t compete with North Florida Christian and University Christian. What a joke

Bergen Catholic won to cap a season in which they won every game except against Chaminade. That was a 61-21 lacing.

How do you know?

They did play a tough OOD schedule probably because their district and class is so atrocious. I was not trying to rag on OTC, I was trying to imply if there was a better system in place, OTC wouldn’t have the opportunity to win state at 6-7. They would have long been bounced in a more competitive bracket

Phenix City Central a few years back went 9-1 in the regular season and was ranked 3rd in Class 7A entering the playoffs. The 1 loss? A 52-31 curb stomping to tiny little 3A American Heritage Delray. Lol

So 10-3 Auburn and 7-4 Prattville would win state here fairly easy? What class would they win? Hell Phenix City Central wouldn’t sniff state here.

Ok you win the delusional Olympics. Please tell me what teams were in their region that would win state here against STA, Miami Central, Chaminade, American Heritage, Venice, Lakeland etc etc? Alabama is bush league compared to Florida

Wrong answer. Maybe they win state in the 1-surburban class
