If playoffs started this week? (Updated 11-5)

[NCBBFB]

Better be careful what you wish for lol. Hope your line has improve from last year , If so might be good game

Last year's game by Starmount was just terrible all the way around. Offensive and Defensive coaching was just BAD plus injuries. Defense hadn't been very good all season though.

This year's teams strong point is defense while offense is more potent than last year. Huge improvement on defense.

I know MH will have improved as well just based on them being young last year. I'm sure that it would be a really good game and hopefully they get to play each other again.

You would have to fall about two spots for that game to happen .

This whole RPI rating is BS! (It’s not)
ER should definitely be higher! (Who knows? 🤷‍♂️)
Eastern Randolph beat one 3A playoff team (Central Davidson) and three 2A playoff teams (Roundabout High, Southwestern Randolph and maybe Trinity)
Had to edit this because actually forgot about Asheboro making the 3A playoffs as well. So that’s five playoff teams in higher classifications…
What the?

Ok this grousing about things is a lot harder than it looks. Good luck to all teams in a couple of weeks…

 

[ocdavis31]

I believe that there are some games next week. Is it accurate to say that those games won’t affect seeding for the playoffs?

 

[roughtrader4444]

They are probably pretty accurate although Murphy will probably be above mountain heritage. And may have a chance although it's pretty slim they may have a chance to catch Mount Airy. Luckily for mountain heritage they did not play that crappy conference fully. Or they would probably be the fourth seed

I should have said will it affect any of the seeding, not just the top eight. If my understanding is correct, seeding can be determined by tomorrow for all teams in all classes. I may be wrong.

 

[Deana_King]

There are some games left that will count next week. It could effect some of the seedlings in lower part of bracket. I think Mountain Heritage plays Draughn so that’s one in 1A West that will effect at the top.

Some games will impact the seeding, such as Robbinsville vs Swain.

Asheboro? Playoffs? You sure you're not referring to the "other" football?

Nope…
Sitting 28th in 3A West RPI this morning…

Well, I'll be darned. They might actually put that Jumbotron to good use someday. Oh well......they can always use it for contacting aliens if this football thing don't work out.....

At least it’s not near the highway or anything…
And again shhhh…
Heard there might be a team that has one comparable to it that is supported by one of the fan bases that frequent this here forum…
Makes ER’s radio down to Bobby and have him flip the numbers system look archaic huh?

Thanks Deana. I thought all games next week were “extra” games, not to be counted.

[Sportsnut17]

I knew Swain was not having a good year, but 0-8 bad?

 

[cherokee 79]

I knew Swain was not having a good year, but 0-8 bad?

Swain has the talent but coaching has derail this team which is sad. They been hit with injuries to players quitting for one reason or another.

 

[EWCards#1]

I'm thinking EW/mitchell could go either way pending the rpi after playing Avery next week.

 

[Deana_King]

Bessemer City has jumped North Rowan to No.6 seed right now.

 

[XOPlan57]

It’s unfortunate how online spaces can sometimes become toxic, especially when people express their fandom passionately. The anonymity of the internet can sometimes shield us from the consequences of our words, but when we reveal our identities, it can lead to real-life repercussions. Furthermore, with the rise of social media, things can quickly escalate, and what starts as a simple comment can snowball into larger issues within fan groups or even impact the individuals involved personally and professionally.

It does seem unfair that there are inconsistencies in how rules are enforced on this site. When some users are allowed to express themselves freely, even if it involves cursing or name-calling, while others face bans for similar behavior, it raises serious questions about the site’s moderation policies and their implementation.

For instance, we often see certain users especially in 4A repeatedly engaging in offensive language without consequence, while newcomers or less popular users may find themselves banned for a single slip-up. This creates an environment where favoritism appears to play a role, which can discourage honest participation and create a divide among users. It’s also worth noting that this kind of inconsistency can lead to a toxic atmosphere, where people feel they must walk on eggshells, unsure of how their actions will be perceived by the moderators.

 

[Deana_King]

My predictions as of 11/3

32 Thomas Jefferson at 1 Mount Airy
31 Avery at 2 Mountain Heritage
30 Swain County at 3 Murphy
29 North Stokes at 4 Eastern Randolph
28 Highland Tech at 5 Corvian
27 Elkin at 6 Bessemer City
26 Cherryville at 7 North Rowan
25 South Stokes at 8 South Stanly
24 Draughn at 9 Starmount
23 Andrews at 10 East Wilkes
22 Albemsrle st 11 Mitchell
21 Thomasville at 12 Robbinsville
20 Carver at 13 Cherokee
19 Hayesville at 14 Alleghany
18 Christ the King at 15 Union Academy
17 Bishop McGuinness at 16 Mountain Island Charter

 

[sbbbfan]

Some interesting matchups in 3rd round. Corvian-Robbinsville winner takes on ER.
MA should get rematch with Starmount.
Murphy could get Mitchell

 

[recycled2]

Robbinsville - Corvian 2nd round would be a very interesting contest.

 

[Deana_King]

Murphy jumps to No 2 and Mountain Heritage to No 3
