A friendly discussion:
Some districts are loaded, some are awful.
Districts 3 - 6 are laughable honestly. The Lutheran St. Charles / Lutheran North winner may turbo their way to the state title game. St. Charles West lost to Potosi...badly. St. Clair lost to Potosi. Districts 5 and 6 are not good. Reeds Spring not bad, defense is iffy.
In the end...Ritter vs Maryville and Lutheran North vs Reeds Spring.
District 1 - Valle (two top 5 teams)
District 2 - Ritter by 80
District 3 - Lutheran North by a smidge over Lutheran St. Charles
District 4 - Sullivan
District 5 - ??????
District 6 - Reeds Spring
District 7 - Pleasant Hill
District 8 - Maryville (very good district, could go a few ways)
I think it's safe to say the D1, D2, D7, D8 side of the bracket has 10 of the top 12 teams minus LN and LSC.
