I remember a few years back there was a team that made the playoffs with a 3-7 record. If I remember right they went about 3 rounds deep. Maybe Coop can help me out in remembering which team it was. Believe it was either 3a or 4a.

brownwood when they were 4a in 2006 under a 3 team format had a record something like that.

You are correct Dayton. That was the team I was thinking of!

IMO the only record that should even be looked at (and it just so happens is the only record that matters) is the district record.  Who cares what a team does outside of district.  All that matters is that a team has 1 of the top 3 or 4 records against district opponents pre determined by the UIL.  Most schools try and play pre season games that will challenge them and have them ready for district.  That may mean that they might lose some or all of their pre season games but be succesful in district.  And alot of times teams are trying to figure out who they are in pre season.  They may be trying to decide a position battle, or install a new scheme.  All of this is done in preperation for district.  And as the old adage says "the cream will rise to the top."  heck not that it would be feasible, but if every team in the state of texas made the playoffs, i would almost guarantee that 10 times out of 10, one of the top teams will win the state championship.  Thats not to say that there may be an upset or 2, but the better teams will win.  and this is why the preseason record doesnt matter, a team may be 4-6 but all 4 wins were in district.  so i personally dont see any problem with the expanded playoffs, and plus you are giving more kids the oppurtunity to experience a very tremendous thing in high school athletics.

John Tyler in 1994 was 3rd in district behind Longview and Tyler Lee in a 4 team district and won the State Championship.  I'm not sure what their record was but since it was a 4 team district and they played everyone in district twice and finished 3rd it couldn't have been that great a record.

This is the hidden content, please

in 1994 they went 16-0, maybe u meant 2000 where they went 12-4, finished 3rd in district behind Lufkin and Tyler Lee but made it all the way to the state finals before losing to Katy?
