But after giving it some thought, I would say not. Otherwise the tie breaking procedures wouldn't be numbered. Once a tie breaker knocks someone from the tie then back to C. Then all over again. Carefully read item "B" . ONE team must be left to revert back to the top. I hope you are correct. It definitely makes thing much easier.

WildWolf6 Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 Hillsboro 1, Beech 2, Gallatin 3, Hillwood 4..... Unless a huge upset occurs. Gallatin is dropped after overall record is assessed , then it would fall back to Beech vs Hillsboro head to head giving it to Hillsboro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Email Gillespie, he's over the TSSAA playoffs. Great minds think alike. I had already emailed him prior to seeing your post. You are correct and I "stand corrected".. It does revert back to head to head after the 3-way is broken. Hillsboro will be the region champs barring something unusual. Sorry for the mistake, GWAVE however I'm sure you'd prefer to have a shot at second spot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Class 1A, 2A, 3A, 4A, 5A and 6A, all teams are required to play all other teams within their region. The teams with the best region records shall be declared the region winner, runner-up, third and fourth place and shall advance to the first round of the football play-off series.B. If at any point when the following tie-breaking procedures are applied, one team has beaten all the other teams that are tied for a play-off position, that team shall be rated above the others. C. In the event of a tie for the region winner, runner-up, third-place, or fourth-place team, if either team(s) has defeated the other(s) in regular-season play, the team(s) shall be rated above the other(s) in the standings. (After the region winner has been determined, the tie-breaker procedure shall begin all over again starting at the top to work out the runner-up position. The procedure shall be repeated to determine the third- and fourth-place teams.) D. The following tie-breaking procedures shall be applied and all regular-season games, both region and non-region, shall count (After each of the following steps have been applied, item C above shall be applied.): 1. The team with the greatest number of victories. (BEECH/ HILLSBORO TIED) 2. The team who plays the greatest number of teams who win 50 percent or more of their games. (STILL TIED AT 5 EACH) 3. The team who has the greatest number of victories over teams winning 50 percent or more of their games. (STILL TIED AT 2 EACH) 4. The team whose opponents have earned the most victories. (Beech-41 Hillsboro-40) 5. The team whose opponents have received fewer defeats. 6. Coin Flip This will play itself out until the tie is broken. Even though Gallatin drops out of the tie breaker with the first criteria, it states the tie-breaker continues on until 1 team beats the other two. IT DOES NOT REVERT BACK TO HEAD TO HEAD in a 3 way once one team drops out! (At least that is how I read it) Have we ever had a coin flip for a region title? So it the tiebreaker will go all the way down to determine the region champ, and then the process will restart to determine the 2 seed, but going by letter B, once it restarts the team with head to head would be 2nd.

Sorry for the mistake, GWAVE however I'm sure you'd prefer to have a shot at second spot. That's good to know. I came across this a few days ago when you brought up the Giles situation on your show. I don't want to say the language is vague but it could be stated more clearly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said , unless something had changed, this is the way it had been since the 80’s. Headed to Shelbyville. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is very simple...should say If Beech wins, If Hillsboro wins...then Hillsboro 1st, Beech 2nd, Gallatin 3rd, Hillwood 4th. What is the big mystery/question marks???? Unbelievable. Any word on where Hillsboro will play its playoff games? Edited October 23, 2018 by sportsguy22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(in the rain if I remember correctly) Yep but those were very different circumstances. I remember telling you to watch a certain backup runningback who had been getting a few carries for Gallatin. That kid ended up being Gallatin’s all time leading rusher and current starter at Georgia Tech. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GWAVE1 Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 We scrimmaged Shelbyville in the first Scrimmage this year. Shelbyville has a ton of weapons and I believe outscored the Wave 5-2 although I am sure players and positions have changed since then.

It was, however, 12 weeks ago! We have a very good team and we’ll be at home, but Y’all have a great tradition and Mark will have his guys ready to go after his alma mater! That said, it is a better draw than hosting Hillsboro obviously. Curious if they end up playing at Vandy? at TSU? at Hillwood? The handbook states they have to play at 7 pm on Friday night in the playoffs. Edited October 23, 2018 by sportsguy22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
