It'll just make everyone mad that Pisgah is the #1 seed in the West. 😁
Yup. Just saw that myself brother. Hmm well heck.Updated version has y'all at #2..User account

Actually, KM and Pisgah are tied with the same RPI, But KM is listed at #1. Be interesting to see what changes the next two weeksYup. Just saw that myself brother. Hmm well heck.
16 Automatic Births- 1st of 2nd in the conference as well as split conference results. So 16 wildcardsHow many wildcards will there be in the mix this year?
If Pisgah beats East Henderson this week, they will at least be co-champion of the Mountain 7. If they beat North Henderson next week, they will be outright champion. Smoky and Tuscola are playing this week. Whoever wins should finish in 2nd place.16 Automatic Births- 1st of 2nd in the conference as well as split conference results. So 16 wildcards
Not much difference in #1 or #2 in first and second round usually anyways.Yup. Just saw that myself brother. Hmm well heck.
seed conference #1 then conference #2 then wild cards. Ledford will be a wild card. They are 3rd or 4th in their league.Based off the preliminary RPI's... (I have no clue on some of these teams and whose leading the conference so it's probably wrong). If you guys know of conference leaders/champions we may be able to figure it out. Obviously it's all pretty fluid right now.

According to NCHSAA seeding in after the #1’s are seeded all others will be seeded by RPI regardless of conference finish. See below:seed conference #1 then conference #2 then wild cards. Ledford will be a wild card. They are 3rd or 4th in their league.
Hibriten is leading their conference which is a split conference as of todaySome 2nd place teams will be automatic qualifiers because of the number of teams in their con but they will be seeded by their RPI with the rest. Also for split con I believe you have to finish in top 3 and have a .500 record to automatically qualify if you don't its left to your RPI if you get in. It also looks like you have to win your con even in split to get one of the top seeds. That eliminates a situation where you have a team win 1 con game and get a top seed like we have seen in the past. If I counted right, there are no 3A teams leading a split con so its possible you only have 6 con champions to seed first.
Again that was how I understood what I read but as it has been in the past with the playoff$.....who really knows?
A lot to still shake out in these last 2 weeks.
We have to win 1 of our remaining 2 games to be seeded with the 1's I believe.Hibriten is leading their conference which is a split conference as of today
We are just like Hibriten ,must win one of two remaining .But if we win both should get a higher seed.We have to win 1 of our remaining 2 games to be seeded with the 1's I believe.
This is as in today. You can't predict a bracket now because of the remaining games unless you do it as of today.We have to win 1 of our remaining 2 games to be seeded with the 1's I believe.
Pretty sure West Cabarrus is 4A!Based off the preliminary RPI's... (I have no clue on some of these teams and whose leading the conference so it's probably wrong). If you guys know of conference leaders/champions we may be able to figure it out. Obviously it's all pretty fluid right now.

MAN!!! You mean Concord area has blown up THAT much that an extension school there is 4A?? WhewThey are.

That should make things interesting come round one and maybe round two. Those underdog's can be heartbreakers!Scariest team in that whole bracket is West Charlotte!! The level of competition they have faced in conference is probably better than the other 3A teams easily
That means they get a automatic bid if they do.Erwin will be seeded as a conference champion. They will finish 3rd in split conference and have a .500+ winning percentage.
Good question. Looking at their RPI, the only thing I noticed was they have very high OWP, not sure if that's why they are 4'th or not? Overall 7-2 and 2-2 in the conference with 4'th place in their conference of six teams...?Ledford is in 4th place in the MPC? Why are they ranked so high?
Ledford went on the road and whipped Providence Grove and Clinton on consecutive Friday nights. That’s hard to do especially this season when PG is really good. Ledford is a very good football teamGood question. Looking at their RPI, the only thing I noticed was they have very high OWP, not sure if that's why they are 4'th or not?

Below is what I read on HighSchoolOTI hope someone can help me - what if there is a 3 way tie? We are in a split conference so, Rose, Jacksonville and Havelock might end up 4-2 in this split conference. That's good enough for 2nd overall but all three are tied for 1st in the 3a portion? What tie breaker is used? We're all 1-1 against each other but only Jacksonville has beat New Bern, the overall conference champ.
Dang!!! That's one helluva situation there!! Bet Rose takes the cake though Friday!! We shall see though.Below is what I read on HighSchoolOT
*J.H. Rose could fall into a three-way tie if it were to lose on Friday. If there is a three-way tie with Rose, Jacksonville, and Havelock, Jacksonville would win the tiebreaker by virtue of "best win" -- being the only team to knock off first-place New Bern.
How is Hibriten this year? Weren't they supposed to play Crest early?If it were to stay this way, that Concord vs Hibriten match up would be a heckuva 1st round game.
