here's a thought. i think teams like Farragut and DB take for granted how difficult the playoffs are. they expect to be there every year and they expect to win because they have the name on their chest. that's exactly what happened to Farragut this year in districts. they expected to breeze through it till the championship game, go to regionals, then substate, and make it to state. and they finished somewhere like 5-6. i think that happens to DB pretty much every year. they think because they had a good regular season, its a given they're going to state. but it doesnt always work out that way. thats my opinion
