All sports will have the same problem with the lower state bracket. My bet is that they choose the least fair, most simplistic solutions:
- All automatic berths. No at-large.
- Predetermined, fixed brackets based entirely on region finish.

SFBD Lower State scenario 1 - All visitors travel 1-2 hours to play a team in one of the other two regions.

Higher region finish hosts, if the same the bracket determines the host.

SFBD Lower State scenario 2 - All first round games are region rematches. Minimizes travel and maximizes gate receipts.

Higher region finish hosts, if the same the bracket determines the host.
