Why not give a bye in District Tournaments to the higher seeded teams, which would allow the last place team to at least compete in the district tournament? Its not about whether or not a last place seeded team in the district would beat anyone, its about the Opportunity!

 

 

Didn't mean to come across as hateful... But if you gave the 1 seed a buy, youd have 2 vs. 5 and 3 vs. 4... Thats only 2 winners. What are you going to do? have the losers of those two games play for elimanation? That dosen't make a whole lot of sense... Anyway, everyone gets in the district tourny. If your seeded and playing in a tournament format, its the distict tourny

The T$$AA dosen't make up the brackets! The coaches do!!! And I agree with you completly about how the regular season shouldmean something.

 

 

True. I meant about T$$AA getting their money ha ha. I think that this should do alright for now, and good luck to your team.

In district 6AA no one gets a bye to the first round. I think that is the fairest way, but the #8 and #9 teams have to play a play-in-game to see who gets to the next round.

 

The play-in-game is part of the district tournament. In some districts the bottom teams can not compete with the top teams. This is a way for everyone to have a chance to make it through the tournament without just telling the bottom seed that they can not play. It is still true that the loser goes home and the winner plays on.

Good [oint Indian Chief. I think all districts should use this type of system.

I think 'byes' are an effort to cut down on games. I do not think they are fair. In some districts, there may be an obvious dominant team. In others, it really could cut out a team that has really improved since those two or three district losses early in the season. To me... that is the difference between district regular season champion vs. the district tournament champion teams that progress to state. After all, it is about the best time right now... vs. the team that was playing two months ago. If you cut out teams at this point, it sends the message that there is no sense in competing after a few early district losses. I've seen it happen many times...that team that could not click in December, has finally found their stride and are kicking tail in February. Let the tournaments (with all teams) determine who should move on. IMHO

Then how are you going to do a district with 6 or 7 teams??? ITS IMPOSSIBLE, unless you have a round robin tournament, which (1st) would take too long, and (2nd) the regular season is a round robin played twice, so why do it a third time?

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
