So, of the so-called 8 best teams in the state, only one of them one a state championship?   Hmmm.  

There should be 4 classes plus rural and have an open division for teams who have a certain amount of football transfers. Maybe 5-7 for that year. If you acquire 5-7 transfers from the day after the prior state championship games all the way to on or before the last regular season playing date then you enter the open.    And the way they can classify the teams is by enrollment first, and then winning percentage to balance them out. So teams with the worst winning percentage the 2 years prior are eligible to move down and the teams with the highest can move up. 

I think 415 in 6 classes is disgusting. It’s the opposite of competitive competition. It’s a watered down waste. Small districts. Teams scrambling to schedule 6-8 games on their own. 2-3 win teams making the playoffs. Same quality teams all getting their special own class.    There should be 4 classes for 415 teams. Thats 103-104 per class on average. Which comes out to 6-7 teams per district for 16 districts. What’s so horrible about that?????????

The Rural class is at 24 teams and dropping, so the impact of the SSAA is obvious. 

As of now, SSAA teams that are still showing up: The Master's Academy  Sneads Wildwood  Boca Raton Christian  Cambridge Christian  Umatilla Faith Christian
