Other than district 4 and 7, all districts are pretty clear. Note that district records is first factor in seeding so even teams that have clinched their district could wind up with a lower seed if they lose their last game.
District 1: SMNW has won the district, SMN-LV winner gets other playoff spots.
District 2 SME has won the district. SME-BVN winner gets other playoff spot.
District 3 OE and OS in playoffs. Winner wins district.
District 4 Up in the air. ON needs to win to clinch. If ONW and LAW win, ONW wins district, ON gets second. If ONW and LFS win, ON wins district, Points determine second spot, LFS is 12 points aheadof ONW coming in - could wind up tied. If ON and LFS wins LFS gets second spot. If ON and LAW win, LFS still gets spot unless they lose by 8 or more.
District 5 MAN and JCT in playoffs, winner wins district
District 6 Heights and Derby in playoffs, winner wins district

Correction District 2 SMW-BVN winner gets other spot.
Correction District 8 Dodge and GARDEN (not Goddard) are in playoffs, winner wins district
olathe north sucks get ready to get beat in state
I guess they can't win it every year...but i can't think of any teams on this side of the state that are head and shoulders above them? SME, SMW, SMNW, SMN, OS, Freestate are not better (maybe equal). OEast beat North but lost to lawrence and have struggled in other games that should ahve been easier. I am not sure come playoff time if it will be quite that onesided.
