Gerry Bertier's 3A Playoffs Final Predictions After Week 10

[Gerry Bertier]

Here is what I see in my crystal ball for after week 10. We will have some shifting around. I think I have done a good job at looking at tiebreakers and making sure they are correct. If you have any questions let me know. Remember I am just making predictions about game results and we know anything can happen on a given Friday night.

 

Alcoa's JV Schedule Quad

 

1 Alcoa 10-0

8 Johnson Co. 4-6

 

4 Sullivan North 6-4

5 Pigeon Forge 5-5

 

3 Chuckey-Doak 7-3

6 McMinn Central 5-5

 

2 Gatlinburg-Pittman 8-2

7 CAK 4-6

 

Things to watch for in this quad

• CAK must win Friday if they win they will be the highest ranked 4 win team
• McMinn Central would drop to the 8 seed if they do not win their week 10 game
• If Claiborne Co. can beat Grainger then Chuckey Doak would become the 2 seed for being district runner up

Sacrificial Lamb Thanksgiving Week Quad

 

1 Upperman 10-0

8 Grundy Co. 4-6

 

4 Tyner 4-6

5 Cascade 7-3

 

3 Notre Dame 7-3

6 Sequatchie Co. 5-5

 

2 Polk Co. 8-2

7 Smith Co. 5-5

 

Things to watch for in this quad

• Grundy Co. is the last team in so if they lose they will need to be praying a team with 4 wins does not pull the upset and bump them out.
• Tyner gets the 4 seed due to being district runner up
• Smith Co. could jump to the 4 seed if they beat DeKalb Co.

Make it through your will be black and blue Quad

 

1 CPA 10-0

8 White House-Heritage 4-6

 

4 Westmoreland 8-2

5 Harpeth 7-3

 

3 Fairview 9-1

6 East Hickman 7-3

 

2 Lipscomb 9-1

7 East Nashville 7-3

 

Things to watch for in this quad

• Lipscomb-East Nashville game will be interesting because no matter the outcome both teams will play each other in week 1 of the playoffs. If Lipscomb wins then they will be the 2 seed winning tiebreakers over Fairview. East Nashville would drop all the way down to the 7 seed due to tiebreakers of teams winning 50 % of their games. Harpeth has 5, East Hickman and East Nashville would have 4, both would have 1 win over those teams then it goes to total wins by opponents and East Hickman would win 48 to 45. If East Nashville beats Lipscomb they will be the # 4 seed, Fairview the # 2  and Westmoreland the # 3. Lipscomb # 5 Harpeth # 6 and East Hickman # 7.
• Fairview will play East Hickman as long as East Hickman beats Mt. Pleasant and Harpeth beats WH-H. 

Panthers to Lose Quad

 

1 Lewis Co. 10-0

8 JCM 4-6

 

4 Camden 6-4

5 Manassas 6-4

 

3 Westview 6-4

6 Fairley 5-5

 

2 Hickman Co. 7-3

7 South Gibson 4-6

 

Things to watch for in this quad

• If Westview beats Crockett they will be the # 2 seed due to being district runner up.
• If Manassas beats Craigmont they will be the # 2 or # 3 seed depending on the Westview outcome.
• Hickman can drop all the way to # 4 if Westview and Manassas win in week 10.

 

Alright enjoy and I am interested to see how accurate this will be.

White House-Heritage vs Harpeth will be a toss up. I hope Fairview opens vs Harpeth in Week 11. That would be a great scenario.

You gonna pop that crystal ball for 4a ?

[Mr. Postman1]

Boys, I'd rather play CPA as to have to play Alcoa to get to the championship game. If Westmoreland loses to cheetham would it change the seedings much Gerry?

A little fuzzy at the moment when the ball becomes clear the topic will appear.

Westmoreland is promised a home game first round win or lose. However if they lose the highest seed they can receive is a 4, if they win they can potentially get the 3 seed.

Thanks Gerry, that's a consolation prize for not getting to quad 2. Maybe that would allow us 1 more round without playing CPA.

[Gerry Bertier]

Thanks Gerry, that's a consolidation prize for not getting to quad 2. Maybe that would allow us 1 more round without playing CPA.

 

No problem whoever you play in the 2nd round will be a tough opponent. Quad 3 by far is the deepest quad this year.

Thanks for doing this again Gerry! SGC can give Hickman or Westview a game if our players want it bad enough. We have had games with lackluster effort which is unbelievable since they first thing you learn is to give it your all!!!! Go Hornets

[alcoadaddy]

You seen both teams play this year?

I have.

[alcoadaddy]

All of Alcoas and the CPA Maplewood, CPA Milan games. No doubt CPA is a very good team and Alcoas schedule isn't the strongest but this Alcoa team is starting to come together and has as my son says has their swag back

Very interesting. Thanks!

 

So if East Magnet beats Lipscomb this Friday, they both will go to the CPA side of the bracket in quad 3. I think I can speak for Fairview and say we're okay with the 3 of them battling it out.

 

East beating Lipscomb Friday also would guarantee us home field advantage in round 2 should we make it past East Hickman.
