- Thread starter Gentle Knight
- Start date
Mitchell-1 3a, 2 top-20 4a, 2 2a, 4 top 10 1a teams.
Robbinsville-1 top 20 4a, 1 2a, 2 out of state teams (3-8 and 4-7 respectively), 3 top 10 1a teams (played Murphy twice).
You do the math.
Well their opponents win percentage before the playoffs was 0.52778 the opponents op wp was 0.46441 you can add whatever value you want to that, but it's a straight forward way of measuring strength of schedule.
Now I'm sure someone will meation MaxPreps well before you do please tell me the entire formula they use for their algorithm. And by the way last week's game on MaxPreps Murphy's str was better then Robbinsville and MA's was better then Mitchell's.
No one knows all of Simmons formula ether but does state he uses margin of victory which I don't like in high school.
Well math doesn't look good for Robbinsville. I didn't know that SC team was that bad.
I will say this. It is funny some people on here thinking Robbinsville is the favorite but also come up with 100 reasons why their team will win Friday. We clearly aren’t the favorites. And that’s how I like it.
The 2a teams Mitchell played were Owen and Madison. You know better. But, if beating a 4-7 school is your claim to fame this season, then yes. Broome would have beaten Owen and Madison. But not Erwin, Lake Norman or Watauga. Or Thomasville and Mount Airy for that matter. But keep trying.
I’m confused is Mitchell back to being the favorite
I've tried making them favorites,underdogs, winners,losers, drunks,inbreds, city slickers, mountain Boys and everything in between..NO matter what I make them they say the opposite. I quit
I'd say Asheville vs Watauga would have been a good game. Or Thomasville.
Currently, according to MaxPreps, Asheville is ranked 41, the highest ranked Mitchell opponent is Lake Norman at 58. Watauga and Mount Airy are close behind at 62 and 70 respectively.
Well the official RPI rankings heading into the playoffs Watauga 12 , Asheville 17 and Lake Norman 22.
The similar team Asheville and Watauga played was TC - Robinson Ash won 42-7 and Wat won 33-0
Mitchell and Asheville both played Erwin..M won 47-7 and A won 49-14
But I've seen some playoff games that the outcome of playing similar teams hasn't meant a thing.

Asheville was missing there starting QB against Robbinsville and some others. They were leading Mallard Creek when he went out with a concussion in the 3rd and lost without him. That’s how important he is. Had Asheville had him vs Robbinsville then Asheville wins
I don’t. He was their team but it doesn’t matter because he didn’t but you are putting way to much emphasis on that game as it pertains to Robbinsvilles strength
You've got to realize you are dealing with Robbinsville fans. Losing a game because of missing players is an acceptable excuse for them, but not for anyone else.
Was Conley the full time starter? He was 14-29 for 233 yards passing and had 11 carries for 79 yards in the Robbinsville game.
You do realize that Asheville lost by 3 touchdowns in that game……
Well there went that argument. Guess Mitchell's back to being the underdog. I just hope we can keep it close...
I truly don't care about what the idiot says, I just want to make sure it's not someone on the staff at the school so that it can be dealt with by our administration. I've tried to support all of our programs at Robbinsville, and if its coming from someone internally, then it has to be dealt with by the higher ups. That's why I offered the reward. I do appreciate the props on the program though. Hope this clarifies...
High enough for us to be playing at home
