I'm just the messenger but it looks like the CPC is the strongest 4-A conference from top to bottom. I know they've played a tough schedule with the likes of Grimsley, Weddington, Mooresville, AC Reynolds, Chambers etc... The CPC Conference leader East Forsyth is top 5 yearly. Mt Tabor is top 10 this year and West Forsyth is Top 20 this year but usually top 10. The 4th and 5th place teams will most likely be playoff bound as well with Reagan and RJ Reynolds. You can't sleep on Parkland, Davie or Glenn as our bottom three(Ask Chambers). One of them could slip into the playoffs making 6 teams...Probably Davie

Anyway, I'm bias and I love this conference

ALL 4 Playoff CPC teams received a home 1st round game do to the strength of the conference. I must say when your 4th Place team beats 9-1 Mooresville and gets a home playoff game that's indicative of a tough conference. Cudos to all of the teams and good luck in the playoffs. Somebody needs to bring home a State Title.

East Forsyth with a bad draw in round 2 against West Forsyth.
Mount Tabor with a bad draw against Indy first round and possibly Hough in the second.

Mt Tabor's road is brutal for a 12 seed. West Forsyth vs East Forsyth possible 2nd Rd will be a great game.

ASK Chambers????? 85% of their coaching staff left after last year. They had a skeleton crew of players returning from last year, and didn't make the playoffs. Ask them what? 🤣

Again, only focus on the transfer portal schools. Those are the only ones who are relevent in the playoffs. As a transfer portal school, EF should be top 5 yearly, along with Hough, Grimsley and Weddington.

Ask them, Do they make the Playoffs at 6-4 with a win over last place CPC conf. Glenn HS. They probably make it...I'm just guessing. You tell me
 
Looks like CPC will take the conference championship back from a weakend Butler team this Friday.
 
If the Butler team that went into Overtime against Irmo shows up. It can be a very interesting game.

Just my opinion but a hard draw makes your team tougher and better. The teams with a cakewalk get bumped out in the late rounds

Advantages of having a cake walk.
Better chance of playing in later rounds.
A better chance at being the healthier team deep in the playoffs.
The opportunity to get back ups and jv players playoff experience in the first few rounds of blowouts.
Only having to play your “A” game for a few games versus four straight games, which is tougher to do.
Sometimes the best teams don’t end up playing in December due to having a gauntlet to go through.

There no doubt the Greater Metro has been down esp in football but it’s a overall good solid conference I would have it in top 10-15

There is an easy way to decide who is right and wrong. All you have to do is look at previous year's brackets. I could see arguments for both ways, but I don't know what the stats say.

You could find examples for both cases but if this were true then what’s the point in teams trying to get higher seeds, or everyone spending so much time worrying about RPI, etc?
It doesn’t matter how great a team is anyone would want to have easier early rounds at home instead of drawing tough teams early. I can almost guarantee you Grimsley wouldn’t trade places with Independence. I’m sure Coach Griener feels better about playing Erwin in the third round (no disrespect) than playing in Cleveland County again. Teams care about being the last one standing, not trying to take the tougher path because it makes you “tougher and better” that sounds crazy.

That team had QB Lawerence who has missed much of the year and I don’t expect him to play in this game.

What are you talking about? I simply just stated what the brackets indicate. It still holds true, regardless of the first round match ups both teams got bad draws potentially in the second as well.

CPC is a good, not great conference. Tabor used to be a real threat in 4A and 3AA but not 4AA. West has never been a threat in 4AA. Their claim to fame is losing to Richmond in 1990. East has but their titles were in 4A and the 1992 title. Davie went to the 4A title game in 2010 but otherwise were never a threat except when Cooter Arnold and company lost to Jack Britt in 2004 in the semis. Never in 4AA.

None of the other teams have been a threat at all in 4A. Glenn was good in 3A. Reynolds has not been a threat since the 70s or 60s. Parkland was good in 3A but not 4A since the 80s.

Bottom line, you have good not great teams that dominate the top of this conference and a few average to bad teams under them. The CPC is not a contender for best conference in 4A and never will be top to bottom...

CPC- how many CPC teams left in the playoffs? Asking for a friend

one... like most conferences in the 3rd rd...Only one 4-A conference has 2 left. I've only repeated Simmons rankings.
and I'll take East over the field to bring back the 4-A Title. but it doesn't help when you knock each other out. Go East Forsyth!

I have watched CPC football now for 15 years. In that time there has been only one school that has had any success beyond their own conference. East Forsyth. I have a ton of respect for them and have seen them take two very good state tilte teams from Meck County down to the wire. 2012 game against Butler still goes down as one of the hardest hitting HS games I have seen.

Other than that....nope. I thought that 2013 West Forsyth team was really good but they got absolutely rolled by an OK Butler squad.

Not even close to being the best conference...

CPC is solid. Records are overinflated, for the most part, because your top teams non-conference schedules have no teeth. West plays Weddington, respect that. Outside of that, meh. Who were / are the best wins for East and Tabor, for instance?

Grimsley is not in the CPC. To be fair Tabor played Grimsley non-conference

Nah just a realist and not a homer. Still beating that drum are we? All these years later? No logic to your talk just emotional immature hand wringing like a child... Well you can die on the little hill you've created where everyone laughs at you. You almost make 98 champ look sane and that's saying something lmao

BTW in your idiotic babble you as usual got your facts wrong... my "2A" football used to wipe the floor with your 2500 student school more often than not with just 1400-1600 kids. On the relevant subject I must confess to you... ND as a 2A school in the 60s beat WF as a 4A school multiple times. OG gives them a good game or at least half as a 3A school and beat them last year. It's why nobody takes WF seriously, cause more often than not they're the biggest school and can't even win the conference. Stick to stuff you know. As in... NOT FOOTBALL
