There has been two rank 15 that win out each year with one rank 16 team in 2021. What's wrong with one extra week of football for the team? There is an average of 8 teams a year ranked 13-16 that win round one each year.I meant 5, 6, 7, 8 over 9, 10, 11, 12, and then 1-8, 2-7, 3-6, 4-5. The 9-16 comment was just stating some negatives about the current situation.
There could be some teams that prefer to play straight through, but 16 weeks is a lot for high school football, so I'd think there would be some coaches that wouldn't mind a week off.
I completely disagree that a team should be given a bye week. If you're worried about number of games, play a nine game season.
