If I Was King of Sports: CA State 8-man football playoff (2019)

In California, there are 15 divisions for high school football state championships, but there is nothing for 8-man football. I believe there needs to be a state 8-man championship. But how can that be done? I do realize that there are so few teams and it can be a logistical nightmare. Also, looking at calpreps.com over the past few years, it seems that the southern part of the state is more dominate than the northern part. The south also has far more schools playing 8-man football. I have proposed something for many years, and I usually propose a different format, and this year is no exception. Unless a BCS-style is done for 8-man, I now think that we must start with separate Northern California and Southern California playoffs. Because, as stated before, there are far more teams in the South than in the North, I propose a 12-team tournament for the North and a 24-team tournament for the South. Each league winner would get an automatic bid. Also, teams in the same league would not be able to play each other in the first round, but teams in the same section could. Here is my bracket. Since I am from the North, I will start there. North (Central, Central Coast,North Coast, and Northern Sections) Highest seeds would host each round (1) Mojave (CS) (6-0) Bye (8) South Fork-Miranda (NCS) (6-2) (9) Burney (NS) (7-3) (5) Branson-Ross (NCS) (6-1) (12) Woodside Priory-Portola Valley (CCS) (6-2) (4) Lone Pine (CCS) (7-2) Bye (6) Riverdale Christian (CS) (8-1) (11) Tomales (NCS) (6-2) (3) Chester (NS) (10-0) Bye (7) Redding Christian-Palo Cedro (NS) (9-1) (10) Trona (CCS) (6-4) Bye (2) Cornerstone Christian-Antioch (CCS) (10-0) South (Los Angeles, San Diego, and Southern Sections) Bracket 1 (1) Windward-Los Angeles (SS) (8-0) Bye (8) Calvary Chapel-Downey (SS) (6-4) (9) Sage Oak-Hesperia (SS) (5-3) (5) Lancaster Baptist (SS) (6-2) (12) San Diego Jewish Academy (SD) (8-1) (4) Sage Hill-Newport Beach (SS) (9-1) Bye (6) Bloomington Christian (SS) (7-1) (11) Noli Indian-San Jacinto (SS) (6-3) (3) Thatcher-Ojai (SS) (4-3) Bye (7) Avalon (SS) (7-1) (10) Hillcrest Christian-Thousand Oaks (SS) (7-1) Bye (2) Amino Robinson-Los Angeles (LA) (8-1) Bracket 2 (1) Chadwick-Palos Verdes Estates (SS) (9-1) Bye (8) Santa Clara-Oxnard (SS) (5-2) (9) Fulton-Los Angeles (Van Nuys) (LA) (7-1) (5) Foothills Christian-El Cajon (SD) (10-0) (12) Desert Christian-Lancaster (SS) (5-4) (4) Cate-Carpinteria (SS) (6-3) Bye (6) Riverside County Education Academy-Moreno Valley (SS) (6-4) (11) Milken-Los Angeles (SS) (5-5) (3) Faith Baptist-Los Angeles (Canoga Park) (SS) (7-2) Bye (7) Coast Union-Cambria (SS) (9-1) (10) TEACH Tech- Los Angeles (LA) (7-1) Bye (2) Flintridge Prep-La Canada (SS) (8-2)
