Not a whole lot difference between yours and highschoolot predictions in the West few like they switch seeds between Swain & South Stokes. Few more in the East the biggest difference I noticed something in theirs that was a was a part of the conversation we had about what to do with Bear Grass they have them at #7 apparently they're giving them a conference championship even though they've played some questionable teams that should count it's going to be interesting to see how that actually turns out.

RPI gets tweaked a lot...so the difference in the west is no surprise...we probably worked off two different versions.

In the east BGC is under 0.500 so I have them as an auto WC.

Take out Bishop McGuinness as they declined a playoff spot.

 

[cimsies]

South Stanley as well. Cancelled remainder of their season.

Well I'm not saying you're wrong just that BGC has been a subject of conversation because of their unique situation, if they win Friday they'll be .500 but the rule is 1-5 conference conference champion .500 and/or 3rd in a split conference but they not a split conference or in really in a conference they're all alone plus some say they've played 8 man teams.
Looks like this is the first time they've played enough games to qualify for the playoffs since going from A-AA system to just A so I'm just going to be curious how it all shakes out.

Yea I read somewhere they are the only 11-man team in their schedule? So will definitely be interesting where they are placed.

Well I just read an article about BGS last game getting beat buy 9-0 John Paul ll Catholic 35 -13 who is a NCISAA Big 8 team the article also mentioned that that it was JPII 5th win in 11-man games including Bishop McGuinness & Northwest Halifax.
I've been wondering how that works one subtracting 3 players or the other adding 3, apparently in they way they phase it
"five victories in 11-man games" that they add 3 players to play 11-man teams probably have to because just not enough 8-man teams around.

That is crazy! Kudos to them. 8-man football is so different. I was looking at their rules and the max amount of players they can have on their roster is only like 25. I mean everything is different. For them to be able to adjust to the rules and everything for 11-man and win games that is awesome.

It is strange. Out of curiosity I was looking up JPll schedule funny how they play Northwest Halifax but don't play fellow 8-man Halifax Academy. But as far as roster something off maybe it's MaxPreps but if the 12 8-man teams they have listed in the ncisaa 8-man most are 25 or less some only 13-14 players but a couple with over 30 and they have JPll roster listing 46 players.
And BGC plays 3 of those 12.

Some of these ENC leagues can really screw up a playoff bracket year after year

Maybe they are allowed to have more on the roster if they play against 11-man teams.

Poor South Stokes and Elkin.. talk about being thrown into the meat grinder like Mikey Myers was. South has both the ectasy of hosting a game but the agony of it being one of the best programs in WNC. Ouch. Elkin and Thomasville's a game we always wanted to see.. to bad it's 19 years too late.

That East Wilkes vs Carver game though.. that one would honestly be super fun to watch. If it happens I may go watch it.

 

[KW23]

Carver isnt any good

 

[sbbbfan]

A lot of these matchups will change after Friday. Games that will have big implications
EW-Starmount
Andrews Murphy
Robbinsville-Hayesville
Albemarle-Lexington
Just to name a few

 

[Thunder_struck8712]

East Wilkes would probably have their way with Carver.

 

[Doppleganger#]

North More could get the number 1 seed in the east with a win.

 

[thsvikes]

I believe Tarboro’s RPI lead is too much to overcome. Tarboro should win their game won’t drop that much. Tarboro will end up as the #1 seed in the east.

1	Tarboro	0.88889	0.59414	0.52803	0.66273
2	North Moore	1.00000	0.41887	0.44387	0.60071

Right I don't see any mathematical way with NM's owp probably going to drop in below .3900 area and at even with some game loses of opponents they've played I don't see Tarboro owp doing no worst than .5444 area so without Tarboro's oowp dropping quite a bit and NM's going up quite a bit I don't see NM jumping to #1 even with a Tarboro lost which probably isn't going happen anyway.
