DVL SHOCKING PLAYOFF TWIST!!!

[Lock N Load]

The Xavier Prep victory over Palm Desert and the Cathedral City loss to Palm Springs created a three-way tie for the league's final automatic playoff berth. But due to a provision in the DVL constitution, the Saints couldn't get into the postseason because they won the game in overtime, not regulation. It's that simple.

DVL SHOCKER

It's too bad Xavier Prep wasn't aware of the rule until it was too late. They could have gone for a 2-point conversion to avoid overtime.

Dave, I totally agree! What a twist of fate. With two at-large berths available. You can't help but wonder... what if?

I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who scratches their head at some of the things that come out of the CIF office. As fans it is frustrating, but it must be demoralizing to the players who work hard each week for the wins only to see a team with a horrible record that you just beat get in the playoffs over you.

I used to think the BCS championship was a joke (4 team playoff isn't all that much better) but these kinds of decisions/rules are laughable.
