I totally agree with you 100 percent. Human element is needed. I have yet to see a computer watch a football game. -
Would like to think that pride, integrity, character, honor would prevent the scenario you describe, but this is high school football in Florida. The Week 11 non-district games would be a perfect time to “rest” some key players (“load management” as they call it in the NBA), heal up “injuries”, or give the back-ups some playing time. The bigger issue is that it is extremely unlikely that MaxPreps will identify the “best” 8 teams in the state. MaxPreps is excellent at ranking teams at the end of the post-season, but not as reliable at the end of the regular season. And why do MaxPreps rankings differ from the FHSAA Power Rankings, the LAZ index, Joshua Wilson’s FPRI, etc (no disrespect to the latter two)? Which one is the most accurate? Without a human element included in the selection process, MaxPreps will identify 8 teams that look the best to their particular variables, weighting, and formula, but this biased process will not guarantee the intent of the Open Division is met – identifying the best of the best. -
what happens if, your 8-0, district title is secured, your lingering around the 6,7,8 spot in state max preps rankings. however, you know, your not going to run the gambit of west boca, chaminade, venice, st thomas, columbus, miami central, etc, etc, etc. and,,,,, coach dumps last 2 weeks of season, 8-2 and fall out of max preps top 8. and run the table in your playoff division.... is it better to be 8th ranked in max preps and lose at some point in that bracket or 10th ranked and roll thru your division to a state title? is the class 3405-A, state champ better than 2nd round loss in open division someone does this, i can promise it. -

I like it. Especially for all the super teams who get 20+ transfers in year in and year out. Let those teams battle it out in the open division top 8. When it comes to this football stuff its levels. You have horrible teams, average teams, very good teams & super teams. If youre a super team with God knows how many transfers and youre going up against a very good team in the playoffs the super team is gonna win 9/10 times. Doing the open division puts all the super teams against each other and see whose the top dawg. The regular state playoffs is gonna be more of a even playing field if u ask me. No super teams, just deserving teams battling out for the state championship -
