No way they cancel the playoffs right?

No way they cancel the playoffs right?

I've heard from several sources It's a possibility...

 

[KW23]

Dont cancel playoffs that's lame

 

[TarVikes]

Why would they cancel the playoffs?

 

[ocdavis31]

Seems it would be very difficult to push them back more than a week, two at the most, unless they decrease the number teams and rounds.

 

[vikandpirate4christ]

I just cannot see that happening.

 

[ocdavis31]

At some point, they’d have to consider the effects on winter sports. Especially in 1A.

Canceling the playoffs would blow my mind. However it really doesn't seem that far fetched given all that has happened in Western NC. I do not see a delay longer than 2 weeks if they choose that route. This also bleeds over into Basketball for alot of 1A & 2A schools have half the football team playing basketball in the winter. So many dominos could fall based on the decision that is made Wednesday.
