WVSSAC pays all workers and pays and assigns all officials. Higher seed gets to choose where (as long as the field is pre certified) and lower seed gets to choose when from three dates and times. There are no banners. No home passes. And when I am the P. A. Announcer for Bluefield I have to be neutral. Boy or boy, Virginia could learn a lot from WV regarding High School Football. I think the above you described is solid (just one dude's opinion). I'm so so on you having to be neutral with the home team when announcing, but I can live with it. I like WV's power rating system/how the system determines playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,717 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Bluefield Researcher, can the Beavers beat Point Pleasant? What I'm getting at is........I know anything's possible when two teams step on the field, but is Point Pleasant so far ahead that even with 4 turnovers, they still beat Bluefield, or is Bluefield fairly close, or close enough to be able to have a chance? I've head by a few people WV AA ball is a bit down this year compared to most years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefield researcher 1,195 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 AA is way down. Anything is possible but Bluefield should win. Maybe even comfortably. Now PP is well coached but they just don't have the athletes. Unless they use the Mothman! The only team they played that is athletic is Greenbrier East. Happens to be the only game that they lost.

I kind of feel for VA High having to go to the park as the visiting team when they outpointed Union but Richlands is home team. Whacky post season set up this fall.

Do it as always, pick the top 8 teams by power rating and if team A only got in 8 games or 6 games or 10 games due to Covid, then divide by the amount of games played. Somebody, somewhere had to come up with the idea to do something different, and that person has had to get others on board to make it happen. Hopefully, all will return to normal next year.

Bluefield researcher 1,195 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Union got 4 welfare points. Va High got 8. Wonder if the extra 4 welfare points would have changed who got the highest rating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t have a dog in the fight Graham is home regardless but it just seems plain wrong. And Graham, the highest ranked team by power ranking if they win in game one, will not get to automatically play the lowest remaining seeded team in (Ridgeview if they win). Still, the real joke is Gate City and Lee High. I don't know how Lee High, and their AD/Coach can get off the bus at Mitchell Stadium with their eyes gazing up and shoulders not slouched. It's not Lee High's fault though. Looks like Lee High's choice to play East Montgomery and Rye Cove or whoever it was vs Gate City playing against Radford and Richlands really paid off. That will teach Gate City to stop playing better competition!! Hopefully they learned their lesson!!! LMAO. What a freaking joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, that's more pathetic. Wouldn't surprise me a bit if the principals made the decision without the Head Football Coaches having a clue until the deal was done. I can't be sure of that though.

Bluefield researcher 1,195 Report Share Posted November 7, 2021 Based on what I just saw Va High had a 22.90 and Union a 22.50. So if you take away the welfare points they both would have had a 22.10. Central would have also had a 22.10 if you take away their 4 welfare points.

If the region had simply done 1-8 seeding, all three would be at home. With that said, every team needs to play at the park from time to time. It’s truly a great atmosphere & a test for any teams fortitude. Good luck to both! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amelia hosts 5 Thomas Jefferson Amelia the 6th ranked team in power ranking being the 4th seed and Poquoson, the 3rd highest ranked team in power rating being seeded as the 6th seed isn't a misprint.
