Interesting that they have S. Granville jumping Randleman for the #1 spot when with who they both have remaining cant see that changing much. Also in 2AA East with Ledford at#4 does that mean there will only be 4 conference winners in this bracket?
If Brevard beats Pisgah friday that very well could happenWell the wheatmore trip for thomasville would be a lot shorter than the trip to S.Columbus(Tabor City)....like 4 miles for me
So based on this the ECC champion gets a #5 seed!? Ridiculous ECC is arguably the toughest conference in the East. ECC champion should be a #2 seed at absolute worst a #3.Interesting that they have S. Granville jumping Randleman for the #1 spot when with who they both have remaining cant see that changing much.

Hibriten?ECC is arguably the toughest 2a conference in the state. My issue is that a defending state champion, who has not lost a game, will not have the 1 seed if these projections hold true.
Yes. They have not done anything to suggest they shouldn't be the 1 seed. Why is Pisgah so highly regarded?Hibriten?
No clue it’s hard enough to keep up with what’s happening here in the East, so I am unfamiliar with West. I do agree though Hibriten is good and if they haven’t lost they shouldn’t be penalized.Yes. They have not done anything to suggest they shouldn't be the 1 seed. Why is Pisgah so highly regarded?
I also notice they have SW Edgecombe in 2A where earlier projection they were 2AA
Agreed, ECC is a very good conference with multiple teams that could make the c'ship gameSo based on this the ECC champion gets a #5 seed!? Ridiculous ECC is arguably the toughest conference in the East. ECC champion should be a #2 seed at absolute worst a #3.
Tigers aren’t letting SWO get out of the second round if we get the opportunity. Looking at the bracket for 2A East it is brutal. Some really good potential matchups. WRH vs. East Bladen. JK vs. SWO. Clinton vs. NE the list goes on. Northeastern is clear favorite.I like the fact that if Northeastern wins their first game then they'd likely face Clinton with the opportunity to play SWO the following week. That is a dream scenario for myself. This is because it gives my Eagles an opportunity to play against those teams from down south who have such rich traditions and have won multiple state c'ships.

Hibriten should have the #1 seed, being undefeated and the defending champions. #1 until someone knocks the off.ECC is arguably the toughest 2a conference in the state. My issue is that a defending state champion, who has not lost a game, will not have the 1 seed if these projections hold true.

Clinton vs Northeastern is more like a Eastern Final game than 2nd round. Playoffs not easy for anyone this year.Clinton is good. Big and strong. You really want to see that??you know I'm messing on you. Has your number changed or am I on ignore??

Lol, sorry Otis I haven't looked at my phone in almost 2 weeks. I had that pro event here last week and this week I've been playing catch up on all my work. No you're not on ignore LOL. I will call you tonight during the Northeastern game. I want Northeastern to play the Clintons,Swo,and WRH'S in the playoffs. I know that if we beat them then we will get some respect. As a Northeastern fan I can honestly say that I want that opportunity. That's not a knock against those teams, it's a compliment. Those teams have always been at the top for the the most part and experienced what it's like to win it all. We haven't, not in my lifetime anyway, and I want to experience it.Clinton is good.

First, remember that any time a team enters or leaves the field of 64, that can alter the cut line between 2A/2AA and East/West in both subdivisions......Also they're using last year's ADM numbers....in my previous projections that i've not published, both SW Edgecombe & Hertford Co. have been 2AA but my revision this morning, both went back to small....these two were right at the big/small cut line last yearI also notice they have SW Edgecombe in 2A where earlier projection they were 2AA
if you guys win the ECC there is no way you don't get a home gamethose projections lol....im guessing they still have us losing one of our last 2 games....if we win out and capture a ECC championship your telling me the highest we would get is a #9 seed??? but sadly it wouldn't surprise me
In my most recent unpublished update, I have Mt Pleasant as a fifth conference champion in 2AA East....looks like the difference is that HSOT is projecting Cummings to finish 2nd in its conference and make the playoffs...I am notInteresting that they have S.

Appreciate that. It's honestly the way I feel. We will never get any respect until we can get that monkey off our back and win a state championship. I personally believe we are the best team in small 2a in the East and Im glad it looks like we'll get the opportunity early on in the playoffs to play some of these teams from the ECC. I'm not going to say I'm not worried about them because we are Northeastern lolThat’s a classy statement!
I respect NE program if it wasn't for Gedari Liverman getting hurt one year, a upset lost to Holmes one year and of course running into #3 Jevonte Williams last year NE would have made multiple championship game appearances over the last 4 years
34 this projection isn't going to happen . I mean we still have 2 big games to play both of which will impact the seeds. Apparently whoever has projected the most current place is factoring James Kenan beating us. That may happen but I think the Horses will be the favorite. All the Horses need to do is take care of business the best 2 weeks and they'll be seeded appropriately.for me personally I think it would be a shame having NE and Clinton play in round 2......cant remember what year it was but East Duplin and Tarboro were the 2 best teams in the East hands down and they ended up playing in round 2...those types of games you wanna see in round 3/4
PoliticsYes. They have not done anything to suggest they shouldn't be the 1 seed. Why is Pisgah so highly regarded?
More like poliTRICKS, but you hit the nail on the head, Wiz!Politics
Hey, brudda, this Clinton fan here is not sleeping on JK, or anyone else for that matter. You sleep in the ECC, you might wake up disappointed.Some people out there still sleeping on JK. Regardless of us winning ECC or not (which we will) this team is firing on all cylinders right now. Avent is peaking, making all the plays. It’s going to be a fun one in Wallace tonight
I'll continue to say that somehow the eye test has to play a factor. I saw Pisgah play this season and they are not a top ten team at all. It's a shame that SP or Shelby is going to have to waste gas to go up there and hang 40 on them.Politics
I know Clinton isn’t sleeping and WRH can act like they aren’t but they are. Northeastern and SWO probably everyone else in the East minus East Bladen are. We gave them all they wanted last year they probably still remember thatHey, brudda, this Clinton fan here is not sleeping on JK, or anyone else for that matter. You sleep in the ECC, you might wake up disappointed.
Blanton stadium will be packed Friday night. Trying to decide if I want to miss our game at Maiden and head down to Shelby.I would love to go see South Point @ Shelby, but I gotta see my Horses stampede East Duplin LOL!
