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

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.

    • Perhaps the best RB in Tampa Bay iin 2023 saw his program close, and is looking for a home. If he stays in the area,Venice is a good bet. (Lakeland may be as well).
    • And if that same newsletter asked the Osceola County Sheriff Department, what do you think the response would be? If you asked, members of the Chamber of Commerce? (Essentially a union of businesses) If you asked a group of nurses? If you asked a group of lawyers? Also a union cares about the working conditions of their members, but the working conditions of teachers are the learning conditions of students as well. People are attracted to careers because of the values that come with those careers. Political Parties attract people based on their values. So it shouldn't be surprising that certain professions attract certain people in certain careers. You act as if the principal's first question when we have a 5,000+ teachers shortage in this state is "who do you vote for? And are you a member of the union?"
    • I feel like y'all are always solid so I don't see y'all going no worse than 7-3. Biggest question mark for Cocoa is their O-line since they are only returning 1 and on the defensive side they only return their blue chip edge in their front 7 
    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face. 
    • It's possible that they find their stride by week 5, but at the moment we just don't have the on-paper talent to compete with teams like Miami NW, IMG National, Cocoa, or Bishop Verot. If Venice can find a way to go 7-3 with that schedule I would be happy
