Postby bulldog_power » Wed Sep 10, 2014 7:25 pm

Any thoughts on wha the new alignment will be for 9man. I think they will come out next week. Has anyone seen anything on it. How many teams will be in a region? Will their be te same number of teams in the playoffs?

I'm curious on this, too. With my count, it looks like about 46 9man teams next year. Obviously too much for 4 regions, but will they go to 6 or 8? Six region format would have about the right amount of teams in each region, but is goofy when it comes to the playoffs with byes and like seeds playing each other. Eight region format would only have 5 or 6 in a region but works out good for playoffs.

Looks like the new alignments are proposed. Looks like they went with 6 regions, here is the link.

I just don't see how playoffs will work. I heard they are leaning towards a 24 team playoff, but I just don't see how that will work. I think they should either go with 4 regions or 8 regions

They used to have 24 team playoffs. Region champs got byes and they rotated 2 #2 seeds to get the other 2 byes.
