LOOKING AHEAD KIND OF SORT OF

By
September 25, 2008

DISCLAIMER: Don't go crazy about what you are about to read. These playoff projections are based on the actual playoff brackets for this season BUT the projected teams plugged in are from preseason picks for district winner and runner up slots. All teams named in either district winner or runner up spots are subject to change. The brackets are true as I read them.

IF I read the brackets correctly, notice that is a big IF, the playoffs will be a bit different. There are still two teams from each district that go to the playoffs however with the UIL's most recent realignment, the district numbering changed so a new set of teams will get first round byes. Here is what I am talking about.


REMEMBER based on PRESEASON picks, the first couple of rounds of the playoffs would look like this:
DIVISION ONE
REGION 1
Turkey Valley would have a bye advancing to Regional

Remember the teams named are based on preseason picks. District play has not even begun. Lots of football to be played on the field. These projections are on paper only.

PLAYERS: Go out and play hard and determine what position your team winds up in
FANS: Cheer hard and support your team.

It isn't about luck so as always GOOD FOOTBALL TO YOU.
