So so so much wrong with this. No way Mecklenburg is a playoff team over Amherst or Glass. Not just picking on them but who in the heck has James Wood beaten this season? This system is bad.

Well Mecklenburg still has to play GW and Magna Vista
Glass and Amherst still have to play Heritage. It will be close. I will do a max points tonight to see where teams fall if everything goes in their favor
 
Amherst lost Rustburg and still has to play Heritage you are Correct Glass has to play Heritage Salem has to play Christiansburg and Blacksburg JF has to play LCA and Amherst
 
I think in the end it’s all gonna work out Bo just looking at the remaining schedules for the teams
I like the good football analysis SFU and Bo good stuff

Well, James Wood beat Skyline, who has won 5 games since then and might win 1 or 2 more. But I understand your point. They beat a team who has beat a bunch of nobodies. Skyline's best win was Millbrook.

Yeah that’s not playoff worthy over Amherst or Glass IMO.. Glass beat PH Roanoke, Botty (#1 seed in 3D), and played a full Seminole slate. Amherst played GW, wrecked Mecklenburg (who shouldn’t be in the playoff either; weakest schedule in all of 4D), and played a full Seminole slate. I don’t want to come off like I’m downing the NW teams. I think Handley and Sherando will be contenders in 4D.
 
Who is at 9 and 10

Almost certainly Glass and Amherst, just like right now. Both teams need to win out (Heritage and Rustburg for Glass, JF and Lib-Bedford for Amherst) to really have a shot, especially Amherst because while I do expect them to snag that fifth win, Lib-Bedford is almost certainly finishing 0-10 and will actually drag Amherst's points down. Glass can probably weather a loss to Heritage because a win over a 6-4 Rustburg can buoy the rest of what they need.

James Wood and Orange are ahead of them (JW 7th, Orange 8th seed atm). JW is playing a Lib-Bealeton that will go 0-10 and a Millbrook that should finish 3-7, it'll find little help there and probably needs rider points to pick up the slack or they may drop down a bit but should still make the playoffs. Orange has 6-2 Monticello and a winless Cville team left, they're in if they beat Monticello and I think they may miss out if they lose depending on some things.

Rivalry game and all but assuming the better team wins this Friday in Lynchburg then Glass needs to hope for a Monticello win over Orange and then get the victory next week against Rustburg. Amherst probably has to beat JF because of how much that Lib-Bedford game will drag it down but idk, others are better with these numbers than me and I'm just sort of eyeballing it anyway. A Monticello win creates chaos at the bottom for sure. JW should be locked in assuming no upsets against Millbrook.

Salem seems a virtual 4/5 lock barring really weird stuff. I'm not sure if Handley beating Sherando would send them above Sherando into the 3 or what. It's either Handley beats Sherando and is the definite 4 or skips up to 3 and Sherando takes the 4 or Sherando beats Handley and Salem slips into the 4 and hosts week one.

Amherst doesn't really lose much for win over Liberty, they are at 22.75 right now, and will get 22 points for Liberty.

If we just add that single game to the points, Amherst drops to 22.67.

But as a whole, if we assume Salem and up is in, then these 5 teams are playing for 3 spots. And these are their current total points:

Mecklenburg 198
James Wood 191
Orange 186
Glass 183
Amherst 182

I'm not even sure the top 2 are in danger. Mecklenburg should lose out to GW and MV but get a lot of rider points. JW is playing two bad to really bad teams. I'm not even sure if there will be suspense next week beyond placement if Orange beats Monticello.
 
I completed the max points possible for top 5 teams. This is Max for each team individually if everything goes their way.

GW Danville 30.3
Jefferson Forrest 30.7 (LCA win) 28.9 (lose to LCA)
Sherando 30.0
Handley 28.4
Salem 27.9 I predict (27.3)
