So in the game of Nederland and LCM

LCM gets 3 + 2 (win plus 2 for the shootout)

Nederland get 1 (for going into OT)

No.  LCM gets 2 points total for winning the shoot out, and Nederland gets 1 point.  The coaches agreed that this system rewards a team more for winning during the run of play.

i'm going to assume your getting vidor's 1 extra point from the OT loss to lumberton? Question. the max points awarded for a game are 3. Lumberton gets 3 points for the OT win. I dont believe vidor gets any, Making them have 12? Right? If not please correct me because i am not totally savy with the revisions made to this years score system

Regulation or OT win = 3 points

Shoot out win = 2 points

Shoot out or OT loss = 1 point

So this means a game won in overtime would result in 4 points for the night, 3 to the winner and 1 to the loser...Correct?

Yes... And I know that doesn't make much sense, but the coaches figured there were 6 to 7 teams with a legitimate shot at the playoffs.  We also thought there might not be much difference in teams #3 thru 6.  We wanted to create a system that would separate teams as best we could. 

My opinion is that ties in the standings should be settled on the field with a post district game or tournament like it was done years ago.  This was not an option for us, however, because of the ten team district.  The UIL sets the date that you can start playing games, and also sets the date when each district must name their playoff representatives. We have to play 18 games.  That put us playing through Spring Break (which most coaches don't like) and only left us time for one tournament before the district certification date. 

The coaches also considered splitting the district into zones to allow more time for another tournament and then also have a district tournament to determine the playoff teams.  This was shot down for a variety of reasons like who would be in which zone, how many teams would make the district tournament, and how the tournament would be set up. 

Anyway, back to the topic.  Here was our thought process:  A win during regulation should be three points.  An OT win should be three points also because the game was decided during the run of play - just a little longer than it should have been.  Last year we split the points (2 for the winner and 1 for the loser) for any game that went past regulation.  We decided that this punished the winning team a little too much, but we still wanted to reward the losing team for lasting past regulation.  And finally, we decided that we'd split the points after a shoot out because we agreed that there's a difference between scoring while playing soccer and scoring 1 on 1 with a keeper.

Many districts don't play OT or go to a shoot out and just give each team a point like the professional leagues for ties at the end of regulation.  I think this is a little crazy for a couple of reasons.  Number one, it could cause a massive logjam in the standings.  Number two, and most importantly, several playoff games are decided in OT or shootouts every year, so a little practice would be good to prepare you for that situation.

Sorry this turned into a ginormous essay.

    • Where were the 8 Omaha teams in D1's preseason top 25 poll... 2. Florida 8. A&M 9. Tennessee 13. N.C.State 14. Virginia 15. North Carolina Kentucky - unranked Florida State - unranked
    • That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.
    • I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.
    • But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling. 
    • Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
