I noticed at the bottom of the power points you have this statement.. " Playoff seedings are based on power points ONLY - District champs are no longer seeded before wild-card teams."
Just wondering if thats true or not. I thought District Champs still got the bid first, then wild cards are chosen from the power points.
That changed 2 years ago while district champs still get an automatic playoff bid seeding is 100% powerpoint
Ok i mistook that as to say that playoff BIDDING was solely based on power points. Thanks for clearing it up.
Looks like PV moved up pretty good and Lee way down if I am reading correctly.
Yeah if I remember right, PV went from 5 to 2.
so in that case whoever wins between norton and clintwood is basically guaranteed an automatic playoff berth. is that correct?
No. Clintwood would still have LPD games left to play. If that game would be Burton's last LPD game, then it would give them an automatic playoff spot if they were to win.
Haysi/Honaker game is huge in Region D, somebody will get left at home thanks to the powerful BDD Title.
why did lee drop? they won didn't they?
Yes that is Burtons last LPD game, we have Thomas Walker, Clintwood and Gate City left
Va high has gotten dominated in their last two games??
why are they so high??
They didn't really drop in position for totals if I remember his list from last week correctly, I think it just depends on how the person places the teams (either by total points or by average rating). According the list on va preps Lee is first in Region D Div.2 in average rating (20.00) but again, near the bottom in total.
yea but ifr clintwood wins and then they beat appalachia the last game and they beat wise next week then doesnt that mean norton will maybe be the 4th seed based on points?
PV moved up because Kelly & Va. High lost, and they picked up more bonus points than Lebanon & Lee.
Glory_Days - Lee didn't move any on my list, there's still 2 teams below them. You prob. saw the list based on avg., which had Lee 1st, I believe. I don't fool with averages - they're not worth it. Two weeks from now, if your team is 1.58 points out of 4th, that doesn't mean as much as knowing that you're 11 points out of 4th (in my eyes, anyway). Lee's avg. is higher because they've played 1 less game than everyone else.
It's still a bit early to get into "what if". It would take a lot more than what you've got there, 32, for JIB to drop to 4th.
A district champ is still guaranteed a playoff spot. But the seeding depends on their rating. You won't have a district chap with a lower rating than another team have a higer seed than that team. But they still get in.
Here's what I'm talking about - right now, Richlands has an avg. of 23 (7 games) and Graham has 20.375 (8 games).
Let's say the season were to end next weekend. Graham is done, but Richlands plays Bluefield.
According to the msg. boards, the Blues will lose.
Now, tell me what chance Graham has of being the #1 seed?
Can't tell by looking at the averages, but I can tell by looking at the totals.
Graham has 163, Richlands has 161.
Bluefield already has 5 wins and is worth 8 points as AA, so the Blues willL "pass" Graham for the #1 seed, even if they were to lose.
Exactly...all I was saying is any district champ is guaranteed a playoff spot...but not a certain seed.
Realistically what will the playoffs look like if Hoanker wins the BDD and if they dont? Asking a lot I know but I'd like to see 4 breakdowns, PV wins out and Honaker wins, PV loses to GC and Honaker wins, PV wins and Honaker loses, PV loses and Honaker loses.
If Honaker wins, they and the CMD winner is guaranteed a spot. Then the highest 2 in power points get in. However that shakes out who knows. Appy is sitting at 2nd in the D1 ratings as well.
