Bluefield_Rules 46 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Let me guess, Gate City is next? No offense to the GC folks, but this is getting comical with Bluefield losing two playoff points in a single week b/c of ineligible players being used first by Oak Hill and now Fleming.

GMan 3,569 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 B_R, its OK...with a win over Wayne, Bluefield will have the #4 spot and we both know that #4 is better than the #3 spot in the pairings if all other things play out as they should... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PioneerPA 11 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Never thought I would see Bluefield fans actually have a preference in a bracket. Considering how difficult Magnolia's game with Oak Glen was, I just don't think there will be a major difference in the brackets this year...but I could be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering how difficult Magnolia's game with Oak Glen was, I just don't think there will be a major difference in the brackets this year...but I could be wrong Every year, I do sort of have a preference where Bluefield is seeded in the brackets because I like to see the Beavers playing at Mitchell Stadium as long as they can during the playoffs. Do I get upset and worry when the Beavers have to travel for a game? Not really. But there's no place like home... From an outsider's point of view, I don't think Ravenswood is as strong as a typical #1 seed and that they are the most vulnerable to fall victim to an earlier round upset. If that happened and Bluefield takes care of business, they would capture home-field advantage for the semi-finals which would be HUGE, IMO.

This is what wanting the 4th seed is all about and nothing more; a possible third home playoff game; 26-1 all-time at home in the playoffs says everything.

redtiger 1,742 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Just curious, how do the WV brackets play out? Highest vs lowest all the way through or set brackets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefield_Rules 46 Report Share Posted November 3, 2010 Just curious, how do the WV brackets play out? Highest vs lowest all the way through or set brackets? It's a 1-16 bracket and it works exactly as the NCAA regional brackets with 1 v. 16, 8 v. 9, and so on. The first three games are played on the higher seeds' field with the title game being played at Wheeling Island Stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have you know all our illegal players have been fully vetted by Woodshed Willie and the crew down at the campus drive-in. Our two RB's don't even turn 24 until two days after the State Championship game, besides they enjoyed the first 6 years of High school so much they wanted to play 4 more. Of all the nerve! Throwing GC in with all the cheaters. Leave the water on for 3 days one time before a State title game and they just won't quit..... Pffft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pffft LOL...I only mentioned GC because they're the only team giving us any serious playoff points this year. Every other team on the schedule, outside of CCD, is having very sub-par seasons by their standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrforshey 27 Report Share Posted November 4, 2010 as of 2:15pm today the WVSSAC hadn't heard anything about this happening from any school. Whose job is it to report a out of state forfeit to the WVSSAC office? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edrforshey 27 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 Guess what!!! There has been another forfeit that Bluefield was involved in today. Princeton has forfeited its win against Greenbrier East but since the Beavers have beaten both nothing changes, except for some scores for tiebreaker (E) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
