Exactly. It doesn't matter if a starting QB or RB breaks their leg against a team that doesn't deserve to be in the "playoffs", as long as they make their money.

Cascade is 8-1?!?!? They were freaking terrible when I was in high school 5 years ago. I think the class of 2005 won like 1 game in 4 years!

The Iowa high school playoffs are now the equivalent to the bowl system. Everyone gets to go. It used to be only 1 team from each district, which was dumb. Then they went to the opposite end of the spectrum and took 4 from each district, which is even dumber. Just take 2 teams you gits

At least they will not need another no call at the end of their first game in the playoffs to win.

Yeah, we used to beat up on them as well - they've gotten pretty good the last couple years. IIRC, they went deep into the playoffs last year or the year before.

Both schools I attended, one belongs and one doesn't. It is amazing to me that Williamsburg is a 3A school now, was 1A when I was there and transitioned to 2A prior to me going to CR Prairie. I am hoping Wburg makes a good run this year, they have looked great after the early loss to Mid-Prairie, plus my cousin has been having a good year.

go aplington parkersburg!!!! make Coach T proud

**clones_jer** · 10-24-2009, 10:51 AM

there was a place for the expansion ... there were years where teams that played in E-burg, Regina or any other number of dominant teams didn't get into the playoffs with 1 or 2 losses. Take Garrigan for example in Class A, 6-3 would have never gotten you in before. (sorry for all the 1A and A examples, I'm a small school grad).I think its good those teams now get a shot ... but they could just expand some places and not others (union mentality?) they had a good idea and f'd it up ... anyone not over .500 should not be included.

think waukee got a pretty decent draw. should take care of CBAL pretty easy then a revenge game against marshalltown. even tho marshalltown won 44-22 the first time, they got lucky in a 16-10 win over an FD team that waukee destroyed so i could see that upset happening. Then we all saw how crazy the waukee/ankeny game was. I would put that as a toss up as if it happened

**JustRedman** · 10-24-2009, 11:00 AM

Go Norsemen.

Marshalltown made Waukee look dumb. The only reason the FD game was close was because of weather and field conditions but they still pulled it out with D and a little rushing attack. Waukee just isn't as good as you think they are.
