I read this as only 8 teams will be seeded. Everyone else is random. They got rid of the extensive seeding because of the mess it created last year.
2018 US Youth Soccer Florida State Cup Seeding Structure
A point system integrating league play within the USYS League structure will be used.
FYSA will award 8 seeds for each age division in 2018. The 8 teams with the highest total points will be awarded seeds 1-
8 respectively. All other teams will begin in round 1 of competition.

For 02 Boys they have changed the State Cup Round 2 matchups since when they were first posted.
This feels like they are manipulating the process to help out certain expected group winners!
Even if there was no mal intent, why can't things just be fixed ahead of time and left alone after the draw???? Why change it a couple days after the draw???

Here's why:
Wildcard #3 plays the following teams: Ives Estates Black, Wildcard #4, and Wildcard #5.
Group A#1 will play Weston Reserves, Group B#1, and Group C#1
What is the benefit of winning your group in Round 1 if you are going to play two other group winners and a seeded team??
Group winners need to be matched up against Two Wildcards and 1 Seeded team.
You are giving the advantage to teams that DIDN'T win their group in Round 1 if you match wildcards against wildcards!!!

Here is one group of 4 in the 2nd round:
Miramar
Wildcard #9
Wildcard #10
Wildcard #11
Two will advance. So we are guaranteed to have one of the three worst teams from Round 1 in the Round of 16.
See the idiocy yet??!!!

One of the 8 Seeded Teams
One of 13 Group Winners
One of the 11 WildCards
The fourth spot would have to be either another group winner or wildcard team to fill out the bracket.
Any other way is ridiculous!

Unless they change it, everyone should try to target a wildcard slot. Win first two games and tank the third and pray you don't accidentally win your group.

State Cup has now become a after thought from the past years. Very few if any college representation and just another Bazooka type tournament.

It is GUARANTEED for the 2002 Boys there will be at least one of the #30, #31 and #32 teams from Round 1 make it to the Round of 16. How does this make any sense?
