Wouldn't that be expected in any situation where we are seeding teams? Like the gap between a #1 and #8 is supposed to be big. If that continues in the 2nd round or the state finals, I think that is the bigger problem.
And no, I am not suggesting that the system is good. For than 10 years, I have suggested that we do a classification system based on previous seasons' success rather than population.
If a PBC kicking team player touched the football during a free kick in the neutral zone without any FPC receiving team player touching the football, that would be first touching by K, and a bean bag should have been thrown at the yard line of the first touch, not a flag. First touching is not a penalty, it its more like a violation.
