Hey CIF, I’m gonna help you out … next year’s Open Division/Pac-5/D-1 field should be …

Hopefully CIF commish Rob Wigod’s plan to have an open division (and others divisions, too) in football gets fast-tracked through so that we can have it in place in time for next year. But since these things take time, I will help senors Wigod and Glenn Martinez out by telling them what the field of 16 in the open division should be. All they’ll have to do now is just handle the politics part of the plan and get it passed.

Alemany — Barely a fit, but decent power rating.
Bishop Amat — Pseudo Pac-5 champs in ’14 after nearly beating Centennial.
Centennial — First try in Pac-5, Huskies win it all. True D-1 power.
Crespi — Really nothing other than 2014 to deserve this, but so be it.
JSerra — Claim to fame is finishing 2nd in Trinity. Meh. In.
LB Poly — The factory stays in D-1, rest of Moore league to the Southeast.
Mission Viejo — One year out of D-1 and they win “D-2”. Welcome back.
Mater Dei — Beat Pac-5 champ in regular season. Lost in playoffs. In.
Paso Robles — “D-3” champs. Have to have one travel nightmare in here.
St. Juan Bosco — Trinity champs, D-1 runner up.
Santa Margarita — Strong power rating team. In.
Serra — Claim to fame is scoring 64 on Centennial while allowing 68.
Trabuco Hills — “D-4” champ. You’re in.
Tesoro — Meh. Welcome back.
Upland — Won their league … Made semis. In.
Vista Murrieta — League champ and runner-up in D-2. You’re in.
