1A West Football Playoffs - Week 1 bracket

[TDHelmick]

Hancock has opted out of the playoffs.
Southern has opted to play.
Have not heard from Clear Spring.

The MPSSAA removes all the teams that opt out and then reseeds based on point totals.

Assuming Mtn Ridge beats Keyser this weekend...
Assuming Northern beats Southern this weekend...
Here are the Week 1 match ups:

If Clear Spring opts out:
Mtn Ridge (bye)
Fort Hill (bye)
Southern at Allegany
Smithsburg at Northern

If Clear Spring opts to play:
Mtn Ridge (bye)
Southern at Fort Hill
Clear Spring at Allegany
Smithsburg at Northern

LIKELY SCENARIO FOR WEEK 2
Northern/Smithsburg winner at Mtn Ridge
Allegany at Fort HIll

 

[3rd and goals]

Do you see clear spring being more inclined to play since they will get to avoid Fort hill and Mountain ridge?

Clear Spring plays Hancock this week. If they lose to Hancock, how could they even think about a playoff game?

They won't lose to Hancock.

Both CS and Hancock teams should stage on the same side of the field to see what a consolidated team would look and feel like IMHO.

I don't think that they could come close to any of the top four teams in the Region. The question is do they want to play a tenth game.

Southern is in the same boat, but atleast they man up and play.

 

[Bleedred4life]

Yes, Southern could go 0-9 and they would still play. The difference is in the attitudes of the two schools.

Clear Spring has decided to participate in the playoffs!

These will be the 1st round pairings according to my totals.
I do not know yet what first round games are on Friday or Saturday. Win or lose Homecoming, Fort Hill will be the No. 2 seed. That means Fort Hill will host Southern on Friday night and Alco will likely host Clear Spring on Saturday with time TBA.

CLASS 1A WEST REGIONAL PLAYOFFS - FIRST ROUND
No. 1 Mountain Ridge (bye)
No. 7 Southern at No. 2 Fort Hill
No. 6 Clear Spring at No. 3 Allegany
No. 5 Smithsburg at No. 4 Northern

This assumes Mountain Ridge beats Keyser this weekend
This assumes Northern beats Southern this weekend
