Eagleborn Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 This season will be different. My guess is there will be a good amount of Thur/Sat games. Also maybe some flipping for home and home since the bigger stadiums will have a game already or just not want to deal with it.. Officiating may be less than stellar as well due to the “good” crews already having a game on Friday night. Gonna be interesting to see how it all plays out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Tiger03lb Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Thursday to me would be fine. Hell, we been playing on different days already. We don't want to go there on the officiating. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillonpanthers Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I've been thinking about that too. Problem is a lot of the big schools have either freshman or jv at home on Thursday nights. Most don't have fv/fresh at the same location like smaller schools do. So not sure how avaliable stadiums will be on Thursday nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cotton84 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Almost half the big school stadiums will be available on Fridays - if they have personnel willing to work the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBizzle Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Yeah, I wonder how many schools won’t want the hassle of hosting a game in the “Covid Era.” Could be a real issue, especially if they think there can be any case made for liability. Could get ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EazyMoney Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 The playoffs start after Nov 3 so that should help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Volleyball is seeing that right now as their playoffs get underway this week -- a lot of places don't want to host and have two sets of out-of-towners converge on their school 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagleborn Posted October 27, 2020 Author Share Posted October 27, 2020 Schools will want the biggest stadiums possible to get bands and others there without taking away from number of fans than can attend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevyman Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 I like the home and home flip as long as that flip goes your way lol. Would love to see you Tatum folks come up to Winny for that first round game if that happens to be the scenario that plays out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you flip for home and home, the loser of the flip has the right to play at home the next time the 2 schools meet in the playoffs...…...So winning the flip is good, but not necessarily great.

longhorncrazy Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 May not be any flipping for home. I heard the UIL is proposing that the #1 and #2 seeds host the first round and the higher seed of the two host the second round. Nothing official yet.

Lot of states already use this model and it works even when not in a Covid year wouldn’t mind the first 2 rounds always be that way makes district seeding mean even more!
