I have taken the several ideas from all of you guys and come up with some
interesting information. There are a couple of facts we know 1. there are
roughly 220 teams in Florida, 2. There is two stages and 8 teams going at once.


So now we take situation 1. : If we take the rumored number of qualifying
matches 4 per team, and we divide the number of teams 220 by 8 we get 27.5
then multiply by 4 the matches and we get 110 qualifying matches!
But does this seem right? I would think that do to the fact of two stages
there would be at least 160 matches because every regional had at least 80,
qualifying mathes!

So now situation 2. : If take an average regional number of matche say 85,
(Does anyone have all the regional Q-match numbers so we can make this right)
Take the 85 and double it you get 170 then take the number of teams divided
by 8 (220/8=27.5) And take (170/27.5) you get 6.1 Q-matches per team, which
is different than the 4 we think we might actually get! Well now I know
that some of you are thinking 170 matches we don't have time for that, but do
we two stages, double the matches and double the amount of teams going into
the final bracket. It does work out, and I hope that is what happens. Oh and
finally for that 6.1, I know it isn't even but if you play with the 170
say (168,169,171,172) I think you will eventually get an even 6. Which
proves we can have 6 matches or at least 5 just I don't want only 4!

Anybody have anything to say about this, I would like to hear it!
