Week 10 - Big South 3A/2A updates
- Thread starter sasha_nc
- Start date
Still too close to call - even if this year's ADMs are the same as last year's, there are too many bubble teams in the upper half to determine a cutoff between big and small. Odds are 50/50. Sorry.
Tough luck being in the SMAC this year with Crest and Shelby because no matter what happens Kings Mountain will finish third. The way they have revised the rules regarding teams from split conferences, Kings Mountain will be seeded as a 3 seed.
(h) Seeding:
(1) Seed all #1s by 10-game winning percentage. Conference champions tied for first will be seeded as number ones if they are going into different subdivisions (A or AA).
(2) If school finishes first in its part of a classification in a split conference, it is seeded as a number one and not actually where it finished overall in the conference.
(3) A teams that is second in a split conference must finish second in the overall conference standings to be seeded second. If the second team in a split conference finishes in third place in the overall standings, it will be seeded third. (Revised)
(4) Seed all #2s by 10-game winning percentage.
(5) Seed all #3s by 10-game winning percentage.
(6) Seed all other qualifying teams based only on their 10 game winning percentage, regardless of conference finish.
Crest added two people to the roster, not my choice. But they did anyway. Now those two are our QB and the other is on defense. Now, I want you to show me evidence where had those two not joined would South Point had won? Our defense stopped you point blank last year. Both times, was it all because of Ramsuer? Please....this year is no different. Show me that Peeler couldn't win show me that our defense wouldn't have stopped you.
You just broke RR73's heart. He wants a rematch.
I've seen some with Crest as small 3A but no one really knows until the final numbers come out. Also, there are lots of teams in the middle.
A projected round one (before last week's games). Several of the teams lost, so this is going to shake up a lot over the next 2 weeks. This one has Crest in small 3A.

Curious to see what the new projected brackets are after this week's results are entered into the formula.
I know it's easy to complain when we don't do all of the work. I used to keep up with it to the minute for 3A years back. There's a couple of people that have just stopped doing it, and the couple of others that promote they do it, don't keep it very current....that tells me it must be somewhat of a quagmire.
I can't imagine what it's like to project brackets. It's a headache to figure out who the heck is going. I have an Excel spreadsheet and use the sort function and a pivot table to help me narrow things down and figure out the bubble. I generally don't start until the last two weeks of the season but started earlier and even added 7 more columns to accommodate the necessary data.
I've got the Seeding thing down, but the ADM thing and the Longitude and Latitude give be bad flashbacks to some of my least favorite math teachers.
You really do have problems sleeping at night don't you? I can't imagine even thinking about doing all that work just knowing that any stumblebum who can read will know just as much as you in two weeks if he bothers to pick up a newspaper.
Welcome to my world of insomnia. It's a way to maintain my skills in Excel and learn more about some of the functions (pivot tables, etc) for professional purposes.
