The 2020 High School Football Playoff matchups were announced this weekend.

The playoffs are a quite a bit different this year due to the pandemic. Normally a team has to win 6 games to be guaranteed a spot in the playoffs. With the shorter regular season schedule, the MHSAA decided to open up playoff eligibility quite a bit. Any team that was able to complete at least 4 games is in the playoffs.

Obviously this means that a lot of teams that are not used to being in the playoffs will get to play this weekend. I know it's hard to find a lot of positives during the pandemic, but I would consider this one of them. Looking over the matchups there are some schools that have not been in the playoffs in recent memory playing, and that has to be a cool moment for the school.
