Bradford 14-Pahokee 21

[561_Fan]

Halftime. Pahokee came out flat in the first half. The bye week and school shooting threat has to be the cause. Hopefully, we can play better the second half. 

[561_Fan]

31-20. Pahokee after 3. PK has been real flat and sloppy. Not good letting Bradford stay in this game

38-20. Pahokee. The worst game we’ve played all season. Glad we were able to pull it out. Sloppy and Flat

It will be a month since PK played back to back games.. Coming off of a bye and a emotional/historical Muck Bowl win really showed tonight but it will give them the wake up call they need for HHS. My first visit to the stadium in 6 years; I do not remember it looking that good! Go Blue Devils!!!!!

This game played out like the Palm Beach Gardens loss (off a bye week). Defense couldn’t finish plays (sacks and busts in coverage) and a QB mobile enough to extend plays. I think the shooting threat (a lot of kids went home and were afraid) had an effect also and maybe not RESPECTING your opponent.

Not how it works.. but you've been told this before

Wym tell me then

[Perspective]

Jesse, the best MadCo can hope for if they beat Blountstown is a No. 2 seed in the State semifinals (i.e., the final four). 

In Region I, Baker had a better RPI than MadCo when the regular season ended, which is all that matters.  Chipley did not.

In Region III, both Chiefland and Union Co. have better RPI's than MadCo. 

In Region IV, Hawthorne has a better RPI than MadCo, but MadCo has a slightly better one than Pahokee. 

So even if the four road teams (Chipley, MadCo, Union Co. and Pahokee) win all four regional titles next week, the winner of the Chiefland/Union County game would have the best RPI and thus would end up the No. 1 seed in the final four.  The best MadCo could hope for would be a No. 2 seed, in which case they would host the semifinal game (against Pahokee) before playing the Championship game in Tallahassee. 

If the current seeding holds true is Regions I, III, and IV,  Baker County will beat Chipley, Chiefland will beat Union Co. and Hawthorne will beat Pahokee.   If that were to happen, and if MadCo beats Blountstown, MadCo would be the No. 4 seed and would travel to Hawthorne for the semifinals. 

At least that's how I understand it.

Yes, that's my understanding of how it would work.

you both wrong the only way mc county play pahokee or hawthorne is in the championship game region change this year

If I'm wrong, I'll admit it.  I was basing my analysis on the FHSAA Football Handbook:

4.7.2.3.2 State Semifinals
(a) Dates and Times. See the football webpage at FHSAA.com.
(b) Bracketing. Teams will be seeded based on the RPI Ranking at the conclusion of the regular season. The one (1) seed will play the four (4) seed and the two (2) seed will play the three (3) seed.

What are you basing your opinion on?

look at your 1a playoff bracket mc county is not in the same  region as pahokee and hawthorne that change this year

I understand what you are saying.   Several of us noticed the same thing at the start of the playoffs.   But we then remembered that the FHSAA was (supposedly) using seeding when they got to the state semifinals instead of the old-fashioned 1 vs. 2 and 3 vs. 4.  In short, the brackets are in conflict with the handbook.   I'll find out which one controls and report back.

Madison vs blountstown anyone thoughts

[john taylor]

how lone you been doing this. this is  not college they dont go by no handbook

[blackmagic]

Now this is the understanding that I have.

RPI Rankings of final 8 1A and rpi matchups.

1. Blountstown
2. Hawthorne
3. Chiefland
4. Union
5. Baker
6. Madison
7. Pahokee
8. Chipley

Regional Final matchups

1 vs 6
2 vs 7
3 vs 4
5 vs 8

Chiefland and Union game doesn't shift anyone up or down because they are 3/4 in rpi.

If higher rpi team wins every game
Blountstown host Baker
Hawthorne host Chiefland/Union

If Madison wins and all other higher rpi win.
Hawthorne host Madison
Chiefland/Union host Baker

If Madison and Pahokee win and other higher rpi win
Chiefland/Union host Pahokee
Baker host Madison

If Chipley and Madison win and other higher rpi
Hawthorne host Chipley
Chiefland/Union host Madison

Only way Madison can host is if Pahokee and Chipley win. Chipley and Pahokee has no way to host.
