Maxwell Ratings’ projected playoff brackets for 3A-A Division I after Week 11
These are the Maxwell Ratings’ projected playoff brackets for classes 3A to A Division I.
Unlike other classes, which are seeded in the traditional format, the GHSA will seed teams in classes 3A to A Division I using a points-rating model.
The GHSA publishes the Post Season Rankings, but the draws below are more informative because they project how they might play out after two more weeks of the regular season.
Teams finishing in the top four in region play are guaranteed playoffs berths. Region champions and runners-up are given seeding preference. Teams outside the top four may qualify as at-large teams.
The numbers to the left of the teams are their overall seeds. The numbers in parentheses are their projected finish in region play.
