And what punishment does 0 and 10 Antioch get? You can't take playoffs away if they didn't qualify.

My point!!

Overton and Antioch better just watch their step or the T$$AA will screw Stewarts Creek some more.

No one screwed SC. They didnt make the playoffs on their own.

And nrgrizzly giving Ravenwood a bye is the only option. Ravenwood has prepared for Overton. Now you really believe it would be fair for a team that made the playoffs to be suddenly put at a disadvantage. No sir. Sorry but not everyone wins a trophy and you do still have to earn things.

I've got no dog in this fight (pun intended )... but the T$$AA should have been able to resolve this much faster.  That said... football is not like other sports.  The process of preparing for the entire week is very critical - you cannot flip a switch the night before and give either team appropriate time to prepare.  If you can prep in one day for a team and win, they didn't deserve to play.  On every level of football from pee wee to pros, the best team wins in the film room and game planning sessions... the Champions have discipline and systems to instill those well-wrought game plans in pimple-faced, testosterone-pumped, teenage boys amongst a plethora of distractions.  Sucks how this worked out, but I think T$$AA made the best scenario out of a stupid situation.

my thing is, the suspension is way too harsh, and TSSAA already knew the decision that they were going to make LAST FRIDAY, yet they wait so late to take action, bad move and bad look by TSSAA. Robbing kids of a good time, Antioch is already being punished after winning 1 game in the last two years....

Ravenwood would have been given a competetive game from Overton its a shame.

Maybe penalty on Antioch can extend to the next time they qualify.
