3 out of 4 State 4A teams dropped from 5a

[SummerCreek it is!]

I guess the announcer for the state games agree with DemDawgs....they said the size of the lineman and speed of the game or something like that....

Only 2 of the 4 were 5A last year. GTown and Guyer. Cedar Park and Lancaster have been 4A. Cedar Park probably would have won a couple 4A State Titles had it not been for Lake Travis the past 4 years.

[/quote]correct and Guyer has been back & forth between 5A and 4A with the same turn out for football each classification.

well I know I heard the announcer say 3 teams......

[badndn]

Announcers were wrong.
Aledo won 3 state titles not long after moving up from 3A to 4A and they beat Lamarque for one while Lamarque had 3A numbers. Southlake won 4 outta 5 titles begining the year after they moved up from 4A to 5A. Case can be made both ways.

It didn't help Summer Creek. ;D SC has 5a numbers and sitting at home.  :D

of course the UIL can rarely be accused being logical but it seems to me that it makes more sense to divide teams by enrollment once they know who has made the playoffs...top 50% go Div 1 and the bottom go Div 2...could cause a slight delay in knowing who your matchup in the playoffs is but should be able to figure that out by Sunday.

And yes SC would have still been Div 1

[badndn]

Couldn't scout in that scenario for bi-district round.

[Razor]

Of course it would never happen but cut it back to 3 teams per district and give everyone a bye week...solves that problem...four is ridiclous anyway IMO.

Again this will never happen, but just food for thought
