But how is the NDHSAA doing the playoffs I would think all sixteen teams play in the 1st Round. But which regions are the home team in the playoffs in the east is it R1 or R2, and west R3 or R4. NDHSAA website has the bracket but with every other bracket they have an overall seed.
1. If that's so their are four overall seeds. Then how would you fill the bracket out would the others be random draws (for example: say a region 2 team St. John plays the #4 overall seed, and that happens to be say Linton. Would that be right or will it be like the 2012 playoff format.
2. This is something like the 2012 playoff format when they had four regions. My example is part of question 2.
R1 #4 @ R2#1
R2 #3 # R1#2
R2 #4 @ R1#1
R1 #3 @ R2 #2
R3 #4 @ R4 #1
R4 #3 @ R3 #2
R4 #4 @ R3 #1
R3 #3 @ R4 #2
Would question 1 or 2 be right or would they both be wrong. Let me know very much appreciated thanks.
Top Seeds Rank (right now via QRF)
R2
R1
R3
R4
Therefore it would be
R1#4 @ R2#1 (#1 Overall)
R2#3 @ R1#2
R3#4 @ R4#1 (#4 Overall)
R4#3 @ R3#2
R2#4 @ R1#1 (#2 Overall)
R1#3 @ R2#2
R4#4 @ R3#1 (#3 Overall)
R3#3 @ R4#2
It allows for cross bracketing in the semifinals which doesn’t necessarily lead to an east/west guaranteed final...like Class A bracket last year that had Langdon & HCV (two east teams). Season could still end with east & west in same half of bracket but it allows for the opportunity to have some cross bracketing
Side Note: the QRF number will change/alter weekly
