TOM4000Patriots Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Good point if that's the case about it being open. We just look at every opponent and try to get a Win no matter who it is. At Oakland we have always scheduled a vaiety of opponents and had a lot of good experience for playoff time. They can play up if they want to, if we meet it will just add more history to our program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said it before, but no Rutherford school has won since being classified with Maryville. Maybe this is the year, but not yet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitansRTerrible Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Here is how the Super Duper 32 stand as of this week: 1 White Station High School 2289 3-5 2 McGavock High School 2280 7-1 3 Jefferson Co. High School 2273 1-6 4 Cookeville High School 2201 6-1 5 Collierville High School 2136 5-2 6 Science Hill High School 2080 6-1 7 Dobyns Bennett High School 2072 7-1 8 Arlington High School 2044 6-2 9 Ravenwood High School 2037 7-0 10 Antioch High School 2036 2-6 11 Mt. Juliet High School 1999 4-4 12 Bearden High School 1938 0-7 13 Houston High School 1937 7-0 14 Oakland High School 1933 6-1 15 Cordova High School 1911 3-4 16 Hardin Valley Academy 1903 4-3 17 Germantown High School 1900 2-6 18 Blackman High School 1839 7-0 19 Whitehaven High School 1838 6-0 20 Wilson Central High School 1834 3-5 21 John Overton High School 1830 3-4 22 Bartlett High School 1818 3-4 23 Lebanon High School 1807 0-8 24 Bradley Central High School 1790 2-5 25 Warren Co. High School 1787 3-5 26 Smyrna High School 1774 5-2 27 Siegel High School 1758 2-5 28 Franklin High School 1751 6-1 29 William Blount High School 1741 3-4 30 Coffee Co. Central High School 1730 2-5 31 Riverdale High School 1724 6-1 32 LaVergne High School 1723 3-4 16 are in red (losing record) one is in green (.500) only 15 are in the black. So pretty much a money grab to get these big schools that otherwise wouldn't sniff the playoffs some extra games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitansRTerrible Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Assuming there are no changes in 6A, I think Gov has it the only way it can go if the TSSAA elects to have four 8-team regions. What if they choose to do 8 regions of 4 teams though? This would make playoff seeding far easier and early round playoff matchups far more interesting (1 vs. 4 and 2 vs. 3 just like the other classes). Otherwise, you're playing 10 largely meaningless regular season games only to turn around and play the same teams the first couple of rounds of the playoffs (assuming the TSSAA doesn't want to send schools half way across the state for 1st and 2nd round blowouts). The only problem for some schools might be filling out the rest of their regular season schedule, but with overall record removed from the playoff qualifying formula, this shouldn't be as difficult as it was under the z-plan. And it would likely help some of the geographically isolated schools, keeping down travel costs by lining up games closer to home than would be the case with an 8-team region. If they went this route I could imagine the following: Region 1: Science Hill, Dobyns-Bennett, Jefferson County, Bearden Region 2: Hardin Valley, William Blount, Bradley Central, Cookeville Region 3: Warren County, Coffee County, Riverdale, Oakland Region 4: Blackman, Siegel, Smyrna, LaVergne Region 5: Mt. Juliet, Wilson Central, Lebanon, Antioch Region 6: John Overton, McGavock, Ravenwood, Franklin Region 7: Collierville, Arlington, Cordova, Bartlett Region 8: Houston, Germantown, White Station, Whitehaven That looks pretty good IMO. These schools could then schedule whomever they want for the rest of their slate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOM4000Patriots Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 I not here to say anything about Rutherford County. I am just saying competition is just that and if Oakland at any time makes it to a situation to where Maryville is the opponent then so be it. No bitterness here about any team that continues to prove that they are the best in their class. If the best teams are in the 32 then they should be there.

Holy Cow '91, don't you realize that D-B is effectively open enrollment too!!! You really shouldn't throw stones from inside a glass house...

davidlimbaugh Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 For someone asking why you can't make a 32-team bracket out of more than 32 teams, the inducement to get people to be 6A is the automatic playoff spot. If there are 33 or 34 teams in 6A, 1 or 2 teams are not guaranteed a spot. From what I understand, teams not in the top 32 will have the option to move up. If someone (Maryville?, Centennial?, Brentwood? or Stewarts Creek?) decides to move up, then the process will become much like a waiver process from MLB. #32 will be contacted to see if they want to move down. If they say no, then #31 and etc... will be contacted, much live a waiver wire. 6A may guarantee bigger gates by playing larger schools? It guarantees you game #11. Curious to see how this all pans out... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
