I was looking at something and saw that Oak Grove has a 34 year streak going and it made me wonder who currently has the longest? I'm guessing Curtis or haynesville.

Being that pretty much every team makes the playoffs now the streak should be catagorized BD and AD before and after .,AD is pretty much useless. BD meant something

I could see that but really with a huge 32 team bracket anybody with a pulse made it before the split too. It went from extremely easy to just a gimme. People keep saying that these 0-10 and 1-9 teams are killing the playoffs but before the split the lowest 5-6 seeds were always 2-9 or 3-7. Is that really that much better? There was still terrible teams making the playoffs every year.

Even though your not a big fan of this type of thing let's actually discuss the topic at hand. Are you saying that really bad football teams weren't making the playoffs before the split? Also how about the fact that less teams used to make the playoffs? Do those years count more than the pre split years of 32 team brackets. Or do you just set the parameters at whatever sounds good in your head

Private schools are not ranked at all. That is definitely syndrome.

I find it ironic that you started a thread about Oak Grove having a 34 year playoff streak (I would assume you are proud of that, and you should be), but then you turn right around and basically tell Indy that it is not a big deal because pretty much everybody has always made the playoffs anyway.
Indy correctly pointed out that since the split playoffs it changed the dynamics of everything. It made it much easier for public schools because without the private schools almost everybody make the playoffs. That is much different than when OG began its streak 34 years ago. On the private school side, if I am not mistaken, in three of the four divisions every single school makes the playoffs each year.
So while it is much easier for every team to now make the playoffs, in the case of the 42 year streaks of Curtis and Kentwood there is a clear difference. Even though it is now easier for Kentwood and Oak Grove to make the playoffs each year, it is also possible for them to miss the playoffs. Curtis on the other hand is guaranteed to make the playoffs this year and next year, and every year.
Still, I can't understand why you started this thread if you don't think making the playoffs is much of an accomplishment because it has always been easy to make the playoffs anyway.

It may be easier to make the playoffs now but this thread was about who had the longest playoff streak. I don't think it would have made a difference split or no split, Kentwood and John Curtis streak would still be the same. The thread was not about if the playoffs are easier to get into now.

I don’t really think making the playoffs is a big deal. With 9 brackets, even making the quarters only means you’re 1 of 72 teams still playing. To be proud of a streak these days, I’d say it should be based on how many years in a row a team made it to the semi-finals which means you’re 1 of 36 teams still playing. In my opinion, even that needs an asterisk due to the split.

If your still playing after Thanksgiving, that is probably the true test as to how good a team is now.

Elton is on the longest playoff streak in school history right now. 8 straight playoff appearances with the 9th coming this year. Split has had an impact but according to the power rankings from each year Elton would have made the playoffs without the split so it is a legitimate streak.

it was more to the point of how good some of these programs have been for decades not really about the present years that their streaks grow with the split. I mean those steaks only have like what 4-5 years of split years added to the end. If you don't think he was trying to troll the thread like he does every thread he post in I can't help you. He intention is never to discuss football, it is to bad mouth the split and public schools, even though many privates voted for it and many publics including my school voted against it. Facts don't really matter though it's about getting a reaction and I guess I give it to him.

. Because before the split making the playoffs on a given year wasn't great accomplishment. Making it for decades in a row without missing a year was a great accomplishment.

Most consecutive years making the playoffs. 42 John Curtis 1975-2017 42 Kentwood 1975-2017 38 Haynesville 1979-2017 34 Oak Grove 1984-2017 33 West St. John 1985-2017 www.14-0productions.com/football-playoffs.html
