Class 1A playoff predictions…

[TheCommander]

Well now that my Basin boys have been eliminated and have no shot at a title, I am looking for someone to pull for… Who are some underdogs?

One of the semifinal brackets in the east will come down to Coalbucket/Cloudland and South Pitt/Gordy-Clay winner.  I think the east will be represented by SP/Gordy-Clay winner.

 

The west has 5 teams that could get to Chattanooga.

The west is stacked.  I've seen Fayetteville twice now.  And will get to see their game vs Red Bank.

I agree if yours is City, Mckenzie, MASE ( based off record) , Peabody/Lake co

underdogs to make it from the west would be Dresden, Moore Co, and Lake Co. Favorites -City, Mckenzie, Peabody.

I know there is not much that can be done about it but one thing that is kind of annoying is how they automatically take the top 4 teams from each region for the playoffs. There are teams that will go 0-10 or 1-9 and make the playoffs and get T Shirts made how they qualified for the playoffs. Maybe only taking the top 2 from each Region would make more sense but there is no way the T$$AA will miss out on gate money.

Yeah I agree go back to the old system top two go for sure and then have at large bids for the best of the rest.

If MASE and Peabody end up playing  where will that game be played? I forget who went where last year.

Being an Even year,  the bottom bracket will host.  So, MASE.
