You have the 8/9 matchup as the biggest blowout? That should be the closest game out of all of them!

 

[mrhonda]

You're right. I did this from a Word document and the "2" didn't come over. Should be 35-26. Thanks for pointing that out.

No problem. We don't exactly have our best team this year but I was hoping we could have kept it closer than 29 lol.

i believe erwin or asheville will win both could

They both could.
Also I see SV beating Marvin Ridge. The Spartans turned the ball over a good bit in the first matchup and I feel like Howell is going to be a man on a mission in terms of beating them.
Wouldn't shock me at all to see a Mt Tabor/Sun Valley 3rd round game

yall think Alex. Central has a chance to pull some upsets in the later rounds? Do you even see them getting past round 2?

I was just reading about ashevilles matchup with Watauga on maxpreps and it said "Asheville entered its game after having won back-to-back but could not continue its run. It was crushed by Concord First Assembly Academy 31 - 7 last week. Asheville unfortunately couldn't repeat the imposing 37-point effort it came up with in its previous game."

We didn't lose 31-7 last week to concord first assembly. We played west Henderson last week and haven't ever played concord first assembly in our existence. So I assume maxpreps confused Asheville high school with the private Asheville school. And these are the people whose rankings we are using to seed the playoffs? What a joke

If they get Sun Valley they're screwed I think. SV is big and experienced up front with one of the best QBs in the state. If they get Marvin I think it'd be an interesting game.

Dont be surprised if they dont make it past Cuthbertson

Exactly. How on earth can they possibly know what is going on when they are so far away from anything going on in NC. I don't understand it. There has got to be a better way.

why do you say that?

Cuthbertson is awful. You should put 49 on them. A Weddington team w/29 players put 45 up.

Just wouldnt surprise me if they lost. Cuthbertson played a tough schedule and played some good teams close. Ac's pass D has been suspect at times this year.

Cuthbertson was destroyed by Catholic and Weddington in back to back weeks. Have some faith in AC, sure they may not be able to make a deep run but I think they can beat Cuthbertson at least. Butch Carter will have them ready.

I don’t see them making it past either SV or MR unfortunately..... I think either of them will be able to move the ball on A-C in the 2nd round

 

[rocketfan73]

i have a question. who actually made the decision to use the maxpreps ranking to set our playoff pairings? it really makes no sense to me at all.

Twas the night before first round and all through the house. Crestrulz was fondling Seadog, his in season spouse.
The picks are in and uniforms hung on the chair
As screams for a victory fill the air.

Good luck boys! Hays in the barn!!!
