Gerry Bertier's 4A Weekly Playoff Update after Week 8

[MountainTroll]

Yea it was s good game. Had our senior o lineman not went down we would have got the win. Inside the 5 twice in the fourth but just couldn't punch it in. Congrats to Hixson. Hey troll y'all didn't suffer any injuries did ya?

nothing major I don't think

Gerry, when will u be updating the 4A playoff scenarios.

Out of these teams, which team is further west?  Giles County, Page and Marshall County?

. Giles..That's why they are classified as a West natural. But the put us East.... No matter as long as we are there....

The way it stands after week 9, Marshall bumps Montgomery Central out of the playoffs, and Marshall would be placed in quad 2, which would push Page into quad 3.

 

However, there is a lot going on with the bubble teams in 4a next week.  The outcome of those games could change a lot of the current quads.  It wouldn't take much to push Knox Catholic into quad 2.  There is even a scenario where Catholic and Fulton both could get pushed into quad 2.

Not what Im wanting to hear.  Could you help with details of the Fulton/Catholic scenario?

I ain't as smart as the dead man, Mr. Bertier, but I think if Claiborne beats Grainger, they could both get in the playoffs with 4-6 records.  This would push one of the current quad 1 teams, Catholic, into quad 2.  If Unicoi wins and Chattanooga Central loses, Unicoi might get in and bump Chattanooga Central out.  That would put another team in quad 1, pushing Fulton into quad 2.

 

That's a lot of "ifs", but possible.  Of course, if two NE teams drop into quad 2, probably Page and Giles both would push into quad 3.

you would be correct if that happened.  check me on this scenario (got to love the what if's, lol) if Catholic got pushed to quad two and Chatt Central got in, does that make Giles back to 3 and makes Sequoyah #1 in quad 2? lol this is fun

It's possible for Giles to get pushed west, but Sequoyah can't be a #1 seed because they are a district runner-up and will get seeded after the district champions.

With the teams that are in quad 2 , Hixon and Signal mountain will be seeds 1 and 2  in the district unless some other district winner is sent to quad 2, no other team currently in quad 2 could be seeded higher than 3rd, Is this correct? thanks for your patience!

That is correct, but Signal must beat Scrotchie County Friday to secure the district 7AA championship.

Oh they will.
