both appeals were denied ... also gathered this tidbit as well per realignment:

In 5a 4 teams from each region get a playoff bid. 5 teams in the larger regions. Not sure the specifics yet of which regions get 5 but I believe it's regions 2,5,6,7. There will be 32 teams in the playoffs.There will still be upper and lower state for non football sports. I belive they release all this officially on monday or tuesday.
