DII State Tournament

OK I'm going for the "dumber than a brick" award, if the "page 2" you referenced holds up. I was working off info I read earlier when the split occurred. What is giving me problems, is the tournament brackets. They are not set up as page 2 details. It shows 4 teams playing for 2 spots to play for the Championship. Thus 2 from W and/or 2 from M/E can end up winning and yes 2 from the same geographic area can be in the finals. So Baylor can play Ensworth or St. Agnes can play ECS, or any combination of the mix. I just don't see where the tournament has been designed to accommodate more than 4 teams from A or AA. While page 2 does "weight" the regions, the State Championship schedule does not. We need someone better advised to "splain this to Lucy". Sorry to question you earlier. /flower.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":flower:" border="0" alt="flower.gif" />

In Class AA, the top five teams from the East/Middle Region and the top three teams from the West Region shall be eligible to enter the state tournament. The sub-state round of the State Tournament shall be as follows:

 

Site 1: #5 East/Middle @ #1 East/Middle

The Executive Director has the authority to select another site if the host's facilities are not adequate tho host the match. The host school should contact the visiting team as soon as possible concerning the site and time of the sub-state match. Schools may mutually agree to play the sub-state match earlier than the scheduled date.

 

The sub-state winners will advance to the central tournament sites, November 1 and 2 and Baylor and GPS in Chattanooga, TN. The bracket shall be set by the Executive Director upon completion of the sub-state round matches."

The state bracket of 4 teams will be made up of the winners of the 4 sub-state games. Those 4 sub-state winners will travel to Chattanooga for the semi-finals and finals.

 

Those 4 sub-state winners 'fit' into the state bracket of 4 teams. 4 each for DIIA and DIIAA.

 

The bracket hasn't been set yet, but will be done by the Executive Director after the sub-state games.

I see that the handbook is dated Sept. 19, 2007 and understand what you're saying. That was not the way it was presented earlier. Makes much more sense that than to have the best teams in the state eliminate each other and have a lesser quality team from the West slide in without much oposition. Thanks for the lesson.

Does anyone know the schedule for the Div II-AA East/Middle Regional games? Looks like the Regional Finals are at BGA on Sat. Oct. 20th, so will there be a 3rd place game that day as well? How will the #5 team from the Regional be determined?

one thing I like about substate is that it allows the best teams to advance.

 

Like in A/AA, (girls and boys) two teams from District 6A/AA (ND, CSAS, CCS or others) can actually make it to the semis or even championship.

 

In past years, DII East only had two teams so the third didn't get to go. (although it makes the regular season all that more important)

    • 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.
