Division 1 is a mess - Norco is not D1, bottom line. MD will put up 50 and Norco may get a mercy score in the 4th quarter. Which is a shame as Norco is a quality team and deserves better. MV vs. CC should be an entertaining game...should have a been the final for D2. So let's back up here - D1 should continue to be an 8 team bracket which essentially gets us to a place that this board has talked about for a long time, a private school division. It wouldn't have been hard at all. Then you let the publics play in Division 1-AA. Div 1-AA would be so entertaining. Week 1 might be a bloodbath in some games, but that was typical before all this competitive equity BS, but can you see how the quarters and semi's would play out...that would be epic and create a ton of excitement. Just my two cents.

Re: Playoff format - How CIFSS Got It Wrong (Again)
In your proposal, there are now 2 non-competitive divisions instead of just 1. The actual D2 bracket is much more interesting than yours.
The simplest tweak to this year to have 2 competitive brackets would have been to change D1 from 8 teams to 4, but getting Cen10/MV as a consolation is pretty nice.

Re: Playoff format - How CIFSS Got It Wrong (Again)
I did consider a 4 team D1 but where to you put the 2nd tier privates? You look at my top 10 in the D1-AA and any one of those teams could be in the semis. I think we need to go backwards...CC/Norco was in D2 just 8 years ago and it was competitive. You had the Southwestern league teams right there in D2 in Vista Murrieta, Murrieta Valley and Chaparral, add the Sunset league and you have a nice public playoff division.
