Great info....I did not see Region 3 5A in the above numbers. Where would this Region fall in the respective listings?

Their average ranking is 3 of 8, just below 2 and 5. Competitiveness, 6th out of 8, just above regions 2 and 8.

I think that for me, Clover is the biggest unknown going into the playoffs. They are better than everyone else in Region 3. They played a lot of out of state games as well. Being undefeated, much like Clemson was last year in a weak ACC, there was little information that was valuable in showing just how strong they really were. Clover may very well be on par with everyone and anyone in the state, but playing in virtual obscurity, they are getting little love from pollsters and pundits alike. I will be very curious to see how much noise that the Eagles can make come playoff time.

Just because of their #1 speed, they will draw probably two rounds that they should win. But winning Region 3 this year doesnt strike fear into any of the better teams. But in the 3rd round it looks like they will get a visit from the Byrnes Rebels. Dont see that going very well for Clover. That's the bad thing about the playoffs. Sooner, or later, you have to play somebody.

I see you seem to keep repeatedly targeting Clover for some reason but no other teams from Region 3 or any other team for that matter. Some sort of agenda against Clover that you would care to elaborate on? Or do you intend to ride Dorman, Byrnes, or Gaffney’s coattails the rest of the way? Please enlighten me.
Don’t think you are...know you are
