When is quiz bowl like bball? It might be interesting though, maybe some, but rare cinderellas can get to the championship. Other that, it makes no sense how it will be played.

Looks like they might have realized it: http://mshsaa.org/results/bracket.asp?Bracket_ID=443

Although they still only have Class 1 templates up randomly....and no year.

It's probably a template. If MSHSAA was crazy enough to change it, they'd be getting an earful.

MSHSAA is nuts for this idea, it is probably a error by their network or something. Quiz Bowl would be nuts in that single elimination system,








:blink: not normal and not fair.

That's not the bracket. Bracket id numbers 441 and 443 are the only two up Academic Competition. The only other item up concerning 2005 championships in any spring sport is the events schedule for Track and Field Finals.

We should have nothing to worry about, Matt.

It's an error. Although "May Madness" would be pretty interesting.

Send it off to Chip Beale. I'm sure he's up for trying something new and bizarre.
