Playoff point system has major flaws

Recommended Posts

Hagerty gets 38 points for beating 0-5 Ocoee 22-21

Viera gets 33 points for losing to 4-0 Cocoa in overtime

Miami Central gets 33 points for losing to IMG in a game they led late.

Apopka gets 33 points for losing to 4-0 Lakeland by 7 in the last minute on the road.

Booker T Washington gets 28 points for losing to Miami Northwestern by 7

I could give more examples but no need to.

In conclusion it is better to schedule bad to average teams and win then schedule great teams and lose close.

I was shocked when I saw Vero has the highest point totals of all classes, regions etc etc

I've been saying that all along. Of course if you just win your district, points don't matter.

Except that depending on whether you are seeded 1 to 4, it will affect not only who you play in the first and subsequent rounds, but whether you are home or on the road. 

District champs gets you no lower than #4 seed and home for round one. That's good when you consider that the old system did the same. 

I don't see why schools schedule teams with little chance of winning with hopes of getting points. 35 points is better than 33. Besides, why play an IMG Academy when there are other good programs that can get you potentially 50 points that you actually have a shot at beating?

I don't like the fact that you don't get anything for playing higher classification teams.  I realize that a good 1a team may be harder to beat than a bad 4a team but a bad 4a team will smoke a bad 1a team.  If classification doesn't matter then do away with classification.  

It's because if we did that teams like Columbia would have no reason to play a 1a Madison team when we could get more points by playing Deland for example 

 

The current system is to reward playing good teams not just high class teams

Ohhh noooo!!!! lol how do we get Miami central!!! Smh and Carol city gets Jensen beach what's has to happen for us to get Jensen or manzaga or w.e dey called

Well 3 of 4 wild cards projected to come from that district so odds are you all will host 1 of 4 teams from district 16

And how come Carol city would get Jensen beach ????

District champs are locked as seeds 1-4 in order of points among district champs 

 

Wild cards are seeds 5-8 based on points 

 

And because Jensen Beach is listed as projected district champ but that could change

That's the exception if you seeded 4a vs 1a best against best down to worst vs worst 4a wins every single game.

    • First I want to express my apologies for my absence the last few months. Without going into much detail I have had some personal life struggles I have been dealing with on top of figuring out the direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com in. Things have finally settled out some over the last few weeks although I am not completely out of the woods just yet. Some of the decisions about what direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com have been forming over this time while I went through things. Part of me wondered if it was time to go, but really it is not at all. Thankfully, a loyal supporter near me in Gainesville decided to put their mouth where their money is and did a little investing and today FloridaHSFootball.com launched its first-ever Mobile App. With that said it comes with the sunset of the MVP Membership Subscriptions and thus FloridaHSFootball.com will be 100% free for the first time in a while. This comes as needing to get the clearances with Apple and Google and the current subscription platform we have is not syncing with Apple's system nor with the App itself. Its best we go in this direction to grow fans again and being able to put them facing forward with an app on their phone going forward. Here are the download links for the apps: iOS (Apple): https://apps.apple.com/us/app/floridahsfootball-com/id6477621728 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floridahsfootball.app&hl=en_US&gl=US   For now the forums will not be available directly in the app. At some point I maybe looking at changing the whole forum software that could eventually integrate into the app. It will be a while before this happens so things will go on as they are here.   I also apologize for any of the spam and troll accounts that have managed to find their way around the security protocols in setting up new accounts. It seems every day these things find ways to pass through control systems. I am going to be looking at getting this solved and will keep an eye on things here as we go along.   Please feel free to reach out to me if you all need anything, want to chat or have any suggestions.   -- Josh  
    • They can definitely beat Central. My bulls is a toss up but I feel we should have the edge. EJ will be hard to stop though. Glad they not in 2A with us. 
    • Blountstown at WS Neal AL Sept 27th. Also the Tate vs. Faith Academy game is no more. Tate will be playing Escambia instead now.
    • I like it if there is only 4 classes 
    • I like the match. An entire COUNTY against a small little Catholic school. Toss up.
