2A Projections after Week 10

Well I have looked at the 2A Standings and guessed at some of the games.
2A Region 6 could end up a mess....
Garrett @ Academic Magnet
Bishop England @ Battery Creek
North Charleston @ Whale Branch

How would you guys pick these games?
I picked Academic Magnet to beat Garrett (this was the toughest to pick, could go either way),
Bishop England to beat Battery Creek,
Whale Branch to beat North Charleston.

So the projected standings would look like this:
Bishop England.........5-0
Academic Magnet......3-2
Whale Branch.......... 3-2
Battery Creek...........3-2
Garrett...................1-4
North Charleston........0-5

3-way tie for 2nd place. So we go to the Region 6 tie-breaking procedure.
(Thanks to the Coach/Admin. that sent me the procedure)

c. If more than two teams are tied and one beats the others, that team receives the higher seed. The others go to the next appropriate tie-breaker. Head to Head results will first be used.
d. If a tie still exists, the Region 6 AA Rating System will apply. This states that a team receives 3 points for defeating a region school with a non-losing region record and 2 points for defeating a region school with a losing region record.

Academic Magnet, Battery Creek, and Whale Branch would all have 7 points. On to the next tie-breaker.

e. If a tie still exists the following point system will be used based on regular season victories.
4 A non-losing record 5 pts.
4 A losing record 4 pts.
3 A non-losing record 4 pts.
3 A losing record 3 pts.
2 A non-losing record 3 pts.
2 A losing record 2 pts.
1 A non-losing record 2 pts.
1 A losing record 1 pt.

Academic Magnet would end up with 12 pts. (7+ 5 pts for beating 5 losing 1A opponents)
Battery Creek only manages 9 points. Tough out of league schedule.

This part gets really fun....
Whale Branch "could" end up with 12 pts. also.
WB's point total will depend on a ruling for out of state opponent Windsor Forest (GA).
Unfortunately, the website with the latest enrollment numbers is currently down.
2014 Windsor Forest (GA) had an enrollment of 1145.
This should make them considered 3A by the SCHSL? If it does....

Whale Branch and Academic Magnet are tied.
So we use Head to Head (WB vs. AM) Whale Branch beat Academic Magnet 28-20.

Therefore....
1. Bishop England
2. Whale Branch
3. Academic Magnet
4. Battery Creek

Just wow!!!!

HUGE Thank You to the administrator that gave me the assist on this.

I'm kind of tired after all that....

The outcome of the Mullins @ Waccamaw game could really change the 2A lower state brackets.
Not only who wins but potentially the points allowed also.

Now I have to sort out the potential 3-way tie in Region 8.

2A Projections after Week 10

last year TIMBERLAND ended up in d2 for the playoffs and walked away
with the championship.i don't know if they have as good a team this year
as last year.DILLON is still the team to beat in d1. I hope SALUDA wins d2
if not them ABBEVILLE.

I don't see how my Eagles got the 3 seed. We are way down this season.

Central finished 2nd in Region 4.

Teams are seeded according to Region finish and that year's Region Order.(that rotates yearly)
This years Upper State Region Order: 2,4,3,1

3 of the 4 Region winners this year are in the D1 Bracket.
Only one Region winner is in the D2 Upper State bracket.
#1 Chesterfield

So 2nd place teams are seeded next.(By Region Order)
#2 Abbeville (2nd place Region 2)
#3 Central (2nd place Region 4)

Thanks MeanGreen, looks good !!
