Summit at Stewie with BIG post-season implications on the line

[nrgrizzlies]

Correct me if this is wrong.  If Stewie wins the final two game (this one and at Lincoln Co.)... they finish second and get a home playoff game.

 

If they lose to Summit, they finish 4th and have to play on the road at whoever the #1 seed is from that other 5a region?  (Cane Ridge?)

 

I hope Stewie can pull this off.  I went to the first varsity game ever played at Cane Ridge years ago.  If Stewie brings their band to Cane Ridge and half the amount of fans they took to the Overton game, that would be about double what the visitors side at CR holds if I recall... unless it was expanded.  Unless they could bring in some portable stands from baseball or whatever.

 

But first things first.  If Stewie can pull off the tall order of sweeping the last two, they would host a playoff game, right?  Even though Summit beat Shelbyville and Stewie did not, the head to head win over Summit would give Stewie the #2 seed???

Gonna be a good one that's for sure.... Playoff game in the regular season.....

[nrgrizzlies]

Did that playoff seeding math sound right?  I know it's complicated.

Kinda ...... Whoever wins this game is in control of 2nd place with.a game to go..... After that it gets semi complicated

I believe you are wrong. If they all end up 5 and 2 in the standing and 1 beat 2 and 2 beat 3 and 3 beat 1. With no head to head tie breaker scenario, in the TSSAA wonderful tie breaker it will go to non district record. And in that case, Summit and Shelbyville were 2 and 1 and Stewarts Creek was 1 and 2, Summit should be the 2 Shelbyville the 3 and Stewarts Creek the 4. I believe even if the Creek wins one of the final 2 they are the fourth place in the district.

That would be Stew Creek's reward for playing Smyrna and Overton outside the region?  Playing teams in 6a while the other two schools played somebody in 4a.

 

The T$$AA needs to get their head out of their rectum about this tie-breaker.

Wrong. A three-way tie with Team A beating Team B, Team B beating Team C, and Team C beating Team A, goes to overall wins. If all three are 5-2 in this case, Shelbyville is the #2 seed with 8-2 overall record. Then, after that is determined, it reverts back to head-to-head in which case Stewarts Creek would be #3 and Summit #4. So, unless Shelbyville is shockingly upset by Columbia or Franklin County (extremely doubtful), Stewarts Creek can finish no better than #3.

This should be a good game with a lot of rushing stats on both sides! Both teams are pretty evenly matched. Summit has a little more to play for locking up their first home playoff game and they should win a tight one.

Impressive performance by Stewart's Creek to pick up a huge win over Summit and secure the school's 1st ever playoff birth. Great team win

Hats off to Stewarts Creek they brought it to Summit! Looks like the Spartans are not ready this year to take that next step yet. Still a year away before anyone can take them seriously.
