Half the teams in Region C have losing records. All
teams in Region D are .500 or better. Maybe Region
D isn't so terrible after all.

 

[Crabguy66]

PM is 4-6 if im not mistaken. Could be wrong.

 

[VHSL-helper]

yep

Most people fuss about their weak schedules and will probably say that's why they have those records, I personally haven't seen any of them play so I don' have clue how good or bad they are.

Galax will have to play better than they did last night to get there

 

[GKKING]

Region D is weak

 

[honestjohn60]

Who would everyone think is the better team, 2A Ridgeview or 2A Grayson?

We will all know after next weekend but I'm going with Ridgeview

Maybe they just played terrible teams and this is how they look, not so terrible.

Clintwood and Haysi are better.

 

[GKKING]

I really believe Covington could challenge in region D. Would be close with Chilhowie but I think the Warriors would pull it out.

Seeing a timesland tweet that has Rural Retreat at 7 and Bland County at 8........what you think VHSL Helper?

 

[VHSL-helper]

The same thing I thought when Lloyd told me last night that word down in the corner was that Walker beat out Hurley. Worrell tweeted last night he thought Bland @ Galax
Bland Co. 48, 32 10 43 133
Rural Retreat 32, 36 10 48 126

When do you think the VHSL will make it official?

 

[VHSL-helper]

should already have. Times already being announced - Fort @ Giles Fri, Hurley @ Eastside Sat..

 

[VHSL-helper]

but they'll prob. wait again until they have almost all the times b4 they release any -

And this is why I say 1A is down. Should of only had 4 teams from each region play. Much better football that way. Does anyone see an upset in this mess??

The higher seed may very well win every game. OR we can just let them play it out.

TW could very well beat PH. Hurley over Eastside would be an upset based on seed.

Region C is less likely too see but everyone still has to play. When there were 16 teams from the west there was always an upset. I remember when Auburn upset Fort in the first round in a game that nobody thought they had a shot in.
Honestly, none of the teams in Region D that are low seeds are any more of an underdog than Fort Chiswell against Giles. Richlands is also a team with a losing record in the playoffs in 2A. I can see where your logic is at. I'm not a big fan of seeing teams with losing records in but I also think if it was the top 4 only, you would leave a team or more out that deserves to be in in most cases. I liked the old bracket better because of the new matchups. Not a big fan of the rematches and potential 2nd and 3rd round rematches. Like in region A where W&L just got spanked by CB and now has to go back and play them again.

PM over GW in Rd1 is possible if you count that as an upset and Grundy over PH in Rd2 in D is possible. But I see it basically going chalk all the way to Salem.

Go look at region b then complain about this bracket. Two 0-10 teams with only 2 teams with winning records....

 

[HighestPoint]

Region B let everyone in. Not a good move.

Sorry, I thought I included all of 1A. My bad if you misunderstood that.

Grundy will beat Patrick Henry by 4 TD's

It's entirely possible

With Tom Hale as our coach he would run or running back 40plus times a game and when he was suspended for the playoff game with Auburn Hale could not find a play he liked enough to run 40 times if you put hale in the stands and let qb call plays Fort beats Auburn by 2 td and I'm not kidding

 

[pioneerstats]

but I would rather a 2 and 8 team make the playoffs then a 8 and 2 team sitting at home let them play it will all come out in the wash \

Anybody sleeps on Covington they will take a loss. Those boys play hard every play. There one of those teams that just keep coming at you every play.
