There will always be some weak teams who make the final 8 (state tournament). The new format is supposed to "weed" out those teams from making the final 4. Look at the AAA boys in the spring. Some sorry teams made the final 8, but got knocked out in the quarterfinal round by the powers. By the luck of the draw, maybe two weak teams will play in the quarterfinal round, resulting in one of them making it to the final 4. That is not scheduled to happen in this girls season in AAA. No offense, but Tullahoma simply has the fortune of having an easier path to the state tournament than many strong teams in better regions. It's a fact!
