It goes to head to head match up first unless there are three or more teams involved and each team has a win against te other teams. For instance Balckman beat us, Oakland Beat Blackman and Smyrna beats Oakland. Can't use the head to to head match up. Then the next step is overall record. Just got through reading this a couple days back on the TSSAA website. Wish i had an address for ya. So Smyrna does and does not need help. The best we can finish is third. If Blackman beats Riverdale and we beat Oakland than we have third. if Blackman loses to Riverdale then we have a three way tie for third and Oakland finishes second, Blackman third and Smyrna forth (possibly with a wild card, chances are good). No matter what smyrna has to win. 5-5 record does not work for a wild card. Go Bulldogs!!!! you can win.
The DNJ offerded some clarity to this mess in an article today. Thanks Milo- see you on Thursday. Should be a good game!! Go Patriots!!
