There are two of them as well as several 4-5 teams. We thought bowl games were a joke.

There is a 2-7 team in class A.:skeptical:

Holy ****! Bishop Garrigan @ Akron Westfield! 4 hour drive for a football game. :biglaugh:

This is a little OT but does anyone know where I can find the number of teams that participate in each class?

My son plays for Ames (on of the 3-6 teams to make it) and even I think it is stupid they are in. Dowling Catholic should have a bye.

No team with a losing record should be in

The Association does not make any money on a bye. It is all about the association making money in the playoffs. Looking at the list there are going to be a lot of blow outs!

Looks like the best A teams are in eastern Iowa. Did they play against Illinois teams?

It's just rediculous. They expanded the field two years ago.

I went to Ames High and even I think they shouldn't be in. Dowling gains nothing except for the chance to get someone hurt.

We went 5-4 my two years on varsity and missed the playoffs twice. With this system we would still have gotten in. I still am not in favor of it. You EARN the playoffs, you don't fall into it. Only 9 teams in the west side of the state don't make it. 16 of 25 do.

Go ANKENY!!!

You could, you know, add up the number of lines under each class and multiply it by 2 to come up with the number of teams participating. :wink:

Meh, it's the same way down here. If you have a win or two everybody gets in.

Ames in at 3-6.
