Who do you see making the semifinals?

Hillsboro, Oak Groove, Trinity, Des Lacs, Velva, Beulah, Langdon, EEK
Hillsboro, Trinity, Beulah, EEK
Hillsboro, EEK
Hillsboro - reclassification worked out in their favor this year.

Couldn't agree more with that working in their favor. Stating the obvious...I watch teams like Oak Grove and Enderlin/MV dress 20 kids for a game & most kids play both ways. Tough to compete with a team that dresses double that. I am sure some Hillsboro kids play both ways but I would guess it's quite a few less than the others.
Would really like to see a rematch of EEK/Hillsboro.

I haven't seen any of the 3 teams play. I see that HCV has 44 players on their roster with 10 of them being freshman. I also see that Oak Grove and EMV both have 25 players on their roster with 2 freshman each. My question would be: How many freshman, if any, play major minutes for HCV? In my experience you don't see a lot of freshman contributing for a playoff football team. I could be way off on this, just an observation.

Schwab, that is a rare occurrence these days with multiple teams from each region making the playoffs, but that wasn’t the case back in the day when only one team made the playoffs from each conference/region. In 1975, Napoleon won the State Class B 9-Man title with an 11-1 record, and its only loss was to Linton, which did not make the playoffs.
In 1978, Zeeland defended its State Class B 9-Man title and finished the season at 11-1. The only loss was to Linton, which did not make the playoffs despite having only one loss. Linton’s only loss was to Emmons Central, which did not make the playoffs, either.
These are just three examples off the top of my head, but I am sure I could find a lot more if I researched it. However, I agree that very few have occurred since the four classes were implemented for football.

2011 Napoleon lost to Hankinson 6-0 in OT. Napoleon's only loss of the season as they went on to win the state title.

Yep and Hankinson only won 3 games that year
