Ponderosa losing busted a lot of brackets tonight. It Also shows that the San-Joaquin Section has absolutely zero ability to make an ideal bracket. D1 bracket was ridiculous with Folsom at 2 right after losing to Oak ridge. Who is Folsom’s best win? ( Vanden, capital, Spanish springs?) Folsom was nuked at home vs Ponderosa. Sheldon has better wins and won the Delta league, which is a lot harder then SFL. SJS gave Lincoln a 4 seed, which should have been a 2 seed, being they had Campo beat until a buzzer beater.
Delta is the toughest league in SJS yet, EG and Jesuit are placed on the same side of the bracket for D2 making a Inter league matchup in second round. St. Mary’s has to be the best 17th seed ever, how does st Mary’s lose to a 2 seed EG by 10, and Oakmont lose to Elk Grove by 11 and get a 5 seed. Reward teams for playing a tuff schedule and having some notable wins. Just because your 22-6 doesn’t mean your better then a 14-14 team that’s had an extremely difficult schedule. There is flaws all over these Brackets and Pondo paid the price,
Because SM IS NOT A 17 seed.
Can we talk about SJS not having a open division for sections? Why wouldn’t the SJS be thinking about an Open division? It’s clear cut that it works, and makes sense to put the best teams in a division of their own. Only one team from each division is going to win a section title anyway. Rocklin, Mcclatchy, Downey, Monterey Trail, were all thrown to the wolves. Because Folsom, Inderkum, Lincoln, Sheldon, MC, should all be in a league of there own. Compete for a open section title and get a automatic Bid for Norcals (sounds familiar like every section But SJS does this) Those teams are elite this season.
Dear SJS, Maxpreps can’t do your job for you. You actually have to go out and watch some games and understand cupcake wins hold zero value. Maxpreps computer rankings don’t understand that.
