Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't do this, however, if the goal is to go farther in the playoffs, I don't see it as unethical. I think lots of teams would sit their starters in week 10 if they could, to gear up for a playoff run...
I assume if East Nash and LA both win out to week 10, then the winner of that game will get the 2 seed in Quad 3? Where will the loser of that game drop to?
The point is.... there is no point... They got beat... if it hadn't been by a private school, it would have been another excuse. Really lame to take away from a team's success because they happened to beat you.
I have seen both teams play more than once, and while that doesn't make me an expert, I at least feel qualified to say that Giles is a better team. I believe that they will be able to make several more mistakes than Lipscomb and still win. I won't rule Lipscomb out completely, but they will have to really outcoach Giles County to give the mustangs a chance. It is hard for me to pick a score in this one, but I think that Giles has to be a pretty heavy favorite.
