Appreciate you Spartan. Damn shame that Mecklenburg has played the worst C4, C5, and C6 schedule and has a 4 seed right now. I know it’s early… VA should go to the North Carolina model and take W/L plus strength of schedule to determine rankings/seedings.

I would not be opposed to that. These ratings are based on the math I’ve done. I used the formula that I found online for point ratings. I tried to get this as accurate as I can.

Looks good to me. I appreciate you doing this for us.

Absolutely. I will say as far as the defense for the Spartans I do think the front four on the defensive line has been playing well. However, I’ve noticed that the corners and defensive backs need work. They tend to give up too many big plays on the outside as well as in the passing game. I think they will jell at the right time and I do think the final four is possible for this team. I do worry about potentially them having to go back up to Tuscarora in December. Tusky is a tough place to play. I was there last year for the state semis. The Huskies still have a great receiver in Dawson Pough. Boston College commit. He could give the Salem secondary fits.

Semis? Loooooooooooong way off for this Salem team. Coen Logan must return, defense must get tougher and my goodness, the coaches need to get the kids' heads screwed on straight. I bet there was a solid 6-8 times last week where someone was missing from a play and had to be yelled at to go off the sideline and get in. They came out of a timeout with 13 kids on the field! I've never seen a Salem team that lackadaisical and unprepared and my view count on games is in the several hundreds range. It's not like there's 80 kids on the sideline or the staff allows them to roam, there's like 20 kids on the sidelines and they're always clumped together near the staff, should never be shouting and looking for that many missing kids on that many plays.

As it stands right now, I feel like 12 games is where they're at if they get a decent seed. 13 would be a successful season, anything else would be massive overachieving. We'll see where they are in six weeks or so but right now? Yeesh.

I would agree with you there that Coen needs to return. I’m not sure what the injury is for him but if he can’t return that’s a big blow. There does seem like there is times where the kids for Salem are not sure what is going on. This needs to be cleared up. They have a lot of work to do. PH will test them. I could see them losing on Thursday to PH. After PH they should be able to do enough to win out with the remaining schedule. If they draw a team like GW or Handley in the first round they could very well lose in the first round this year. This Spartan team probably will not have enough points to be able to host a semi game if they make it that far. I think Tusky comes out of 4C. I could also see Champe or County as a dark horse winning 4C. I used to live near Loudoun County and I saw most teams in that area play. 4C has gotten stronger over the years.

I predict a 3 or 4 seed for this Spartan team
