Leatherhead Larry 530 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 Honaker vs. Ridgeview is probably the game of the week in SWVA next week. Both teams MUST win for any shot at the playoffs. Easyyy there. I do think Ridgeview @ Honaker will be a good game but as far as extreme SWVA goes, Union @ John Battle is more of the "game of the week" type to me. I will more than likely be heading up to Exit 7 to watch since GC is open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will more than likely be heading up to Exit 7 to watch since GC is open. As far as making the playoffs, that actually is the game of the week, basically win and you're in for either team.

Deleted Account 5,203 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 Poor Ridgeview That game would get very ugly, very quickly. Shades of that Graham-Gate City game from 2 years ago...a team that should have been nowhere near the playoffs against a legitimate state contender.

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 I haven't figured up what if scenarios for next week based on who's likely to win and whatnot, but a buddy of mine from Coeburn messaged me on Facebook yesterday and said he figured it up and that if things go as as projected next week, then we would actuallly tie Central for the final spot. Â If that's the case, then I would guess Central would actually get the spot based on head to head, correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big ugly vol 92 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 You know, when a 3 win team is even in the discussion the playoff format is badly broken. Still want to beat Honaker. cowboysnskynyrd 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 You know, when a 3 win team is even in the discussion the playoff format is badly broken. Still want to beat Honaker. Â It is weird man... last year, it took us getting to 6-4 to get in. Â 5-5 wouldn't have cut it last year. Â This year we're talking about possibly 3-7 getting in. Â A couple of years ago, a 1-9 Martinsville team made it, but that was more a product of their 4A, 5A schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sup_rbeast 296 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 You know, when a 3 win team is even in the discussion the playoff format is badly broken. Still want to beat Honaker.That's exactly what I've been saying for years. If they are going back to regions, they need to go back to 4 teams per region making it in.

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 From what I hear about Goochland from some guys I work with they are the real deal this year. Usually when they get hot they take it all. Hopefully we're not overlooking the East teams again! Couple of friends of mine live in Henrico County, just past Goochland. Â They say they are very good, but not as good as their state title teams, but have been getting better as the year goes on. Â One of those teams that is coached very well, strong on both sides of the line and very disciplined....that could be a tough matchup for anybody on this end.

SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 Is gate city locked in at 12 or can Floyd jump them if they beat glenvar or if Lee loses will gate city jump them. I'm pretty sure Floyd would jump them as they would get 32 points for beating Glenvar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

futbolking 766 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 Is gate city locked in at 12 or can Floyd jump them if they beat glenvar or if Lee loses will gate city jump them. Floyd County will most likely not beat Glenvar. Â As much as I like the Buffs, I don't see that one being the least bit close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWVAgridiron 1,469 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 Floyd County will most likely not beat Glenvar. As much as I like the Buffs, I don't see that one being the least bit close. I agree. Glenvar isn't anything special IMO but Floyd just doesn't have what it takes. I think that when its all said and done seeds 6-10 will all be about even futbolking 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Union_Fan 2,155 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 What if Lee loses If Lee loses then GC goes to #11 and Lee falls to #12. I truly believe that Lee/Va High is a complete toss-up, but Va High should have lots of fans this week as it benefits everyone except Lee and Ridgeview for a Bearcat victory.

Union_Fan 2,155 Report Share Posted October 30, 2016 What's the chances of Wise central gettin in or are they officially done? Gretna, Va High, Tazewell, James River, and Ridgeview would all need to lose. That should get Central the #16 seed and a VERY difficult game against either Graham or Appo.

swva_havok_fan 1,261 Report Share Posted October 31, 2016 I was glad that I pretty much had everything spot on this week with the exception of Radford, where I must have had a typo error, giving them 48 rider points instead of 58...  So, if the order of teams on the VHSL Top 20 sheets are correct, I am assuming that Gretna would get the tiebreak over Ridgeview, meaning that the chance of making the playoffs would be basically null.
