And you're still left fighting the map, like in the larger classes.
The round of 16 should be a 7/10 matchup, but I'm guessing you wouldn't be okay with #10 Mediapolis traveling to #7 Western Christian.
Never mind the people (coaches) who bitched and moaned that 16 wasn't enough.
There are 4 different playoff structures mostly because that's what the coaches want.
D1 - OABCIG (3-0) at Hinton (3-0) this week; West Sioux (2-1) at Hinton next week
D2 - Manson-NWW at Emmetsburg in Week 8
D6 - S-K at EBF in Week 8
D7 - Woodward-Granger (3-0) at South Hamilton (3-0) this week
D8 - Underwood needs 1 win to clinch
