Having teams with sub-.500 records in the playoffs is a joke to begin with. Having those teams drive 3 1/2 - 4 hrs to get embarrassed is even worse. Taking half of the gate of that game is ridiculous! T$$AA has always been about the almighty dollar. Way too many classifications and way too many state champions. I heard next year, that each team was getting a participation banner to hang at their school so no one would be left out. 😬
