Why does Iowa do their 4A baseball bracket the way they do. Why have all 6 teams play the first night and then give the highest seed the next round off and then just having to come back and play sub state. They can ride their #1 pitcher basically thru the first round at state. Meanwhile the lower seeds have to play Friday, Monday, and come back again Wednesday. I don't mind teams getting byes but wouldn't it seem more competitive if the top 2 seeds got byes in the first round. Then have 1 play 4 and 2 play 3. Then have the sub state game. This would force the top seeds to maybe use a #2 pitcher. I think with this format the better TEAM would have the advantage. Don't all the other classes use the top seed or seeds getting byes in the first round? Just an observation.
