The home team absorbs a lot. I agree that it's not profitable...the host makes nothing, and the lower seed incurs (usually) more expense than a region game, but TSSAA gets their cut regardless.

Why rob parents and fans to watch games that are mostly meaningless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was strictly a D 1 deal. Go back and re-read what I proposed for D1. If you can, come up with something better and get back with us. And by the way, Try not to suck the next time.

It's set up the way it is for no other reason than the TSSAA's financial benefit, and it's not changing. The TSSAA doesn't care if North Greene or Johnson County get obliterated in round 1 and they don't get a participation trophy for being there. True, I meant more that the trophy was being able to be in a playoff game vs. a physical trophy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current model includes more teams = more games = more cash. Without going into a ton of explanation, here's Quad 1 and Quad 2, Class 1A playoffs out of 5. This year's computer rankings, the latest enrollment (To 400). Quad 1: 1-South Pittsburg 2-Coalfield 3-Polk County 4-Rockwood 5-Whitwell 6-Greenback 7-Lookout Valley 8-Oliver Springs Quad 2: 1-Fayetteville 2-Moore County 3-Clay County 4-Gordonsville 5-Wayne County 6-Eagleville 7-Trousdale County 8-Cornersville I think these first round matchups would be much more exciting for the most part. You also have the regular season games likely making much more money on average with less travel and more traditional/area rivalry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You put more work into that post than the TSSAA puts into playoff brackets for all 9 classes. And for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone doesn't deserve a trophy. A team like Hampton last year should never be able to make a championship game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deputydog Posted November 3, 2022 Report Share Posted November 3, 2022 It’s a good idea, but it won’t happen…fewer games would mean less $$ for the TSSAA…don’t see them going for that, even though it’s the right thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have to admit, you owned me. But not enough to where USJ and JCS owns TCA in football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
