On Sunday, the Idaho High School Activities Association released the state football brackets for five of the six classifications.
Meanwhile, due to a three-way tie in the Mountain Rivers Conference, the entire 3A classification will have to wait one more day for their bracket unveiling.
Based on what happens in the 3A Mountain Rivers Conference Kansas City Tiebreaker on Monday - which will be broadcast live on IdahoSports.com - there are six different results that could occur for the play-in qualifiers. The tiebreaker is set to start at 6 p.m. from Madison High School.
Sugar-Salem (7-1), South Fremont (6-2) and Teton (5-3) have each finished the regular season tied at 1-1 in conference play, resulting in the need for the tiebreaker to decide which of the two teams will make the 3A Playoffs.
As far as the MaxPreps rankings go, Sugar-Salem is No. 2, South Fremont is No. 4 and Teton is No. 7. One of the teams will miss the playoffs regardless of what happens on Monday. The district champions will receive an automatic bye into the quarterfinals in every scenario.
Below are the six scenarios that could occur based on the results of the Kansas City Tiebreaker in District 6 and what the play-in games would be if they happened.
