You really don't get that "the" state championship will be the one with the selects.


Tell me this, how is the regular champ going to be "the" state champ if all the defending champs are on the select side? Please answer that.

Is 5A the only legit state champion now? I'd look at it like that. Teams playing under different parameters. Most of the time the 5A champ will beat the 3A champ. That doesn't make the 3A champ unworthy of recognition.

So when 5A champs are listed, its gonna say
quote:

2008 Destrehan 14, West Monroe 3
2009 West Monroe 30, Rummel 0
2010 Acadiana 21, West Monroe 14
2011 West Monroe 20, Carencro 13
2012 Rummel 35, Barbe 14
2013 West Monroe
2014 Carencro and so on and so on

Same for 4A, same for 3A, 2A, and 1A

The select trophy will say
2009 n/a
2010 n/a
2011 n/a
2012 n/a
2013 John Curtis
2014 Evangel and so on and so on

Do you get which will be seen as more historic, prestigious, sought after?

McCarron may win the Peyton Manning all-American QB award (I made that up), but Manziel will be the one talked about for years to come, because there is a tradition already built in to the Heisman.

I don't believe the selects will be considred the "champions". If you look at other states Miss and Tenn the public schools are the considred the "champions". I think it will be the same in LA due to more people are in public schools. I'm sure there will be debate as both sides will have arugments for which teams are better.
