Serious, any team that has talented athletes can win as long as they have a capable coach. Sometimes the better team loses on turnovers or penalties, or just a bad bounce of the ball. We've seen teams down 14 points come back in 2 minutes to win or tie. Happens a few times a year. Just have to be in the game when the time is running out.

Glades certainly has the talent. Not probable that many teams in 4A beat Booker T in the South, but Cocoa has the best chance if both teams play a good game. The regional final will be at Traz Powell if BTW plays Cocoa. It's a very hard stadium for visiting teams to win at.

Would like to see the FHSAA move Cocoa back to the North. Not because of an easy road to the finals but to make the 4A championship more interesting.

Is it still that way since they are doing seedlings for the playoffs?

What if BTW slips up and ends up #2 in their district

Well districts are gone so it would be regions but what happens is semifinals are hosted by flipping the region each year if I'm correct which means region 4 hosts region 3 in 4a regardless of who wins it

The host is the team with the most points. It's a new rule.
