They may adopt a format Wednesday but there's still a lot to be seen before this executive order expires. We've had about 5 or 6 cases pop up where I work in the past couple weeks. If this trend continues in America I don't see any sports being played in 2020. Professional or amateur.

Yeah, it's looking bad in some areas.

I'm not a fan of #4 either. I don't want to give up the first 2 games either because they are both home games for us. If only region champions made the playoffs that really benefits schools that play in weak regions. There are a some 2nd place teams in other regions that would probably boatrace some region champions. They just happen to be in a tougher region. 

 

We actually won a state title after finishing 2nd in our region and the playoff games were not even close.

In option 2 only the region champion and region runner-up will qualify for the playoffs. Yall are in the same boat as us.  If you win your region you'll have the 1st game at home. This being an even year it's both our turns to go on the road in the quaterfinal this year if a region 4 team is still standing.  That'll be in the 2nd round with this option #2. But the winners of that game will host the semifinals.

I'd say Tyner will win the region but I do believe we will take 2nd. 

We haven't had to worry too much about where later rounds are played the past couple years lol

PP,  I misunderstood your earlier reply.  When you said you didn't wanna give up your first 2 games (home games)  for some reason I thought you were talking about the playoffs but instead you are talking about the regular season.  That's why I replied back with our playoff scenarios.  I can see why option 2 is better for yall than option 3.  My bad 68.

Murphy Fair is at the printer.    I truly hope this is the beginning of more good things for high school football on the horizon.

My gripe with mask mandates is they know that cloth masks are worthless (by NIOSH standards), but side step because N95 masks and surgical masks are in short supply.  Its a political fleece job to get everyone looking like anfifapumks. This virus is still listed as a BSL2 just like the flu as per CDC etc.  However, it is being treated in the hype like a BSL3.
