White Co gets their first win and are playoff bound!

 

White Co goes 1-9, winning 21-14 tonight over Cumberland Co and makes the playoff.

 

A team that is outscored 38-12 on average and goes 0-9 before getting a win goes to the playoffs.

 

Wow....

There is no excuse for this to happen.

Thank you TSSAA & your constant screwing around with the districts and regions in football.

This is the biggest mess going into the first round of the playoffs I've ever seen!

 

I agree it's a shame and shouldn't happen, but everyone knows it was bound to...

How fair is this to Tullahoma?

[riverdaleman]

so how does a 1-9 team make the playoffs were there only 3 teams in the district and the top 2 advance?

nope, only 2 5A teams in district 6, kinda like there are only 2 6A teams in district 8 winner of the 2, is automatically in every year....or until they amend the by-laws

In District 6 "5A--The team that finishes the highest in the final district standings becomes playoff eligible. If the two 5A schools finish 1st and 2nd in the final district standings both become playoff eligible."

 

Standings:

 

Cookeville (6A) 4-0, 7-3

Coffee Co (6A) 3-1, 3-7

Warren Co (6A) 2-2, 4-6

White Co (5A) 1-3, 1-9

Cumberland Co (5A) 0-4, 2-8

 

White Co finishes the highest in (5A) in their district.

 

Understand? Clear as mud? LOL!

[riverdaleman]

what a great system we now have good job TSSAA

[davidlimbaugh]

A better example of how this makes no sense is Brighton in 6A - they make the playoffs yet their record against 6A teams this is - get this - 0-1 thats right, 0 wins, 1 loss against 6A teams for the year.

and will be seeded very high too. They would be seeded above Oakland, can you believe this? I do hope they split us up (OHS, RHS, BHS) gives us all a better chance really

[ndfan63]

At least Brighton has a winning record and won their district.

It is the TSSAA fault for not putting any other 6A teams in their district.

At least we go into the playoffs with momentum, this would really be a downer if we'd won our game in week two or something.
