Like Benedictine @ Lowndes.... 

Why would you do that to The Cadets?.... 

Lowndes would probably drop 70 on Benedictine... 

People don't understand the difference between the classifications of football in Georgia man. Their football teams are recruited up across various classifications so they get the weird anomalies where a tiny enrollment school may beat much bigger school, whereas in Georgia, that can be the case to an extent, but the large powerhouse publics here may well out-depth a much more talented small school team. 

The areas are so different that it's just unfathomable to these guys.

Yea sorry @Pops  @Eddyr2 D1 setup wouldn't work well out here.... 

Peach and ELCA.... Maybe they could hang.... 

But Benedictine is filled with 2 way players and is not adept enough to take on Lowndes... 

That Setup would be a nightmare out here.... 

It would be the 60s and 70s all over again...

It doesn't work here in CA either.  Chaminade gave up 70 and 66 in playoff games in each of the last two years.  That shouldn't happen in playoffs.

You are applying it wrong.First off the SS D1 is changed every year based on a two year performance of teams.Only 18 teams are in D1.So you would take your 18 best over the last two years and form your playoff bracket

It changes so the best teams over the last two years will be in the same playoff bracket 

Yeah but what about the sad saga of Vista Murrieta?  This year it will be Murrieta Valley?  They and San Clemente played the D2 South final last year and now gotta move up.  San Clemente struggled with San Juan Hills tonight. Both those teams really should get to stay in D2 where they would have a chance.  Meanwhile Upland which is improved this year is dropping into D2.

Better then having Long Beach Jordan lose by 60 in the first round every year

It's also being applied incorrectly in the sense that CIF-SS doesn't do full 16 seeds for the bracket. They only determine the top 4 seeds then fill in the bracket using the following guidelines from the football handbook:

Quote

The initial step is to designate four teams (maximum) as seeds, with No. 1 and No. 4 placed in the top bracket and No. 2 and No. 3 in the bottom bracket. An exception to this procedure would be if seeds in the same half of the bracket are from the same league.

Is it possible to designate more than four seeds? The task would be virtually impossible on two counts. Attempting to delineate which team is the No. 7 seed, as opposed to No. 8 or No. 12 rather than No. 13 would result in 25 different answers by 25 different people. Additionally, an attempt at a true seed would be in opposition to the CIF-SS Constitution and By-Laws, which specify a league’s designated No. 1 entry, shall meet a No. 3 entry and a No. 2 shall meet another No. 2 where the draw provides for same in the opening round.


The next stop is to fill the bracket draw and a simple guideline provides the ground rules for same. Assuming for the moment the top four seeds are all No. 1 teams, the procedure calls for the No. 2 teams from each of these leagues to be placed in the opposite half of the bracket.

Consider there are five leagues assigned to this particular bracket, it now becomes necessary to place the only league not represented thus far, League D. The No. 1 designee is placed in either half of the bracket, with League D #2 in the opposite half.

The final step is to place the No. 3 teams from each of the respective leagues in the open slots, attempting to place each in one of the remaining A quarters of the bracket where the league is not represented. This process eliminates the aspect of schools from the same league meeting in the second round of competition.

An exception to this procedure occurs where geography does not permit wide placement. The Office then follows the directive of the CIF Southern Section Council from its meeting on March 13, 1980, which directs schools be placed in the same half and if necessary, quarter of the bracket to curtail excessive travel.

Another factor utilized by the Office when formulating initial pairings is to review the playoff bracket for the previous years in an effort not to match identical teams which may have been paired the previous year or two years back. This would not preclude two leagues being matched in consecutive years, but with two different representative schools.

FWIW, using the above info, this is my current projection for the CIF-SS D1 bracket.
