Dave Campbell New Prediction Observation/Question (MI?)

[Redraider092]

I find it interesting to observe the mid-season prediction on which teams will now make the championship games and results. Latest (week 8) prediction has Balmorhea over McLean and Union Hill over Leakey with Balmorhea winning in D1. Motley Co over Jayton and Richland Springs over Gordon with Richland Springs winning D2.

Curious to get Milford Insider's input (if he doesn't mind) regarding the injury status of the team and if those players are all back and healthy or is the injury bug still causing problems? I only ask because the publication experts do not have Milford even in the semi-finals and if that's indicative of their knowledge of the team or if they are possibly overlooking Milford based on their record, which could be a mistake.

Just an FYI, I believe it is all powered by Jerry Forrest at Pigskin Prep. Great guy.

 

[Leman Saunders]

good ol computer projections

My personal projections (completely human here)...make of it what you will

Jayton v Strawn

Borden Co v Milford

 

[One _pac2018]

I still say Milford doesn’t make it to playoffs

 

[raiderredcowboy]

my human projections are

Balmorhea vs Leakey Balmorhea wins

Grandfalls-Royalty vs Strawn Grandfall wins

 

[Everyone Knows More]

My Personal Projection's are. If so this will be the most equally matched State Championship Games Since the split in 2006 6-Man Div. I - Richland Springs 78, Rule 58
6-Man Div. II - Vernon Northside 60, Jayton 41

D1
Balmorhea vs Blum
D2
Jayton vs Richland Springs

FYI: Gordon and Strawn could be a fun one to watch this year

 

[One _pac2018]

Richland should win d2 I don’t see anyone stoping Landon

 

[One _pac2018]

Blum Avalon and Leakey will decide who comes out of East

 

[Redraider092]

Just to be 100% clear, not that anyone said different, but in no way am I challenging anyone's predictions. Computer or personal opinion. I respect everyone's opinion. I think most on here spend a good amount of time studying the game to form their own educated opinion and there's nothing wrong with those opinions. May the best teams always win.

I agree,No one answered the question either of " Has a team ever been ranked a preseason # 1 and not made the playoffs?"

 

[One _pac2018]

I would like to know that to .

Another question too, " If the State of Texas takes over the school because of poor academic performance, will the school be allowed to participate in extra curric. activities?"

What does that mean ? I kinda understand it but what do you mean by the state took it over ?

 

[granger]

yes they can participate.

Updated observation for this week's rankings:

Ira doesn't play but jumps from 7 to 4.
Milford gets jumped by Ira, Sterling City and Rankin by dropping from 5 to 8 and all they did was win their game by 50.

Understandably White Deer drops after losing relatively big to McLean and McLean jumps to #2. I think this is in line. Just not sure I understand why Milford dropped three spots for winning and Ira jumps the same three spots by not playing.

Just food for thought....

Honestly I think Milford still has a shot at State, but they’ll get thumped by whoever makes it out of the West. White Deer got thumped by McLean, McLean got beat by Balmoreah. And White Deer thumped Milford. I think the West is a dog fight between Balmoreah, Borden County, and McLean. I think Sterling City being ranked #2 is totally inappropriate. SC belongs at 6 or 7 imo.

Correct, Pistol.

I'm not counting Milford out. If they get fully healthy (I have no idea if this will happen) they will be a force regardless who they play.

All of yall complaining about rankings whether its Granger's or Dave Campbell's need to understand something. Time will tell. I'd like to see anyone else try a formula that is accurate with 6Man having 2 divisions public, private schools, outlaw/independents playing each other, and be accurate with the rankings week by week. Sound like a bunch of soccer Moms/Dads in this thread.

Pretty sure nobody is complaining. Just mentioning an observation. What is complaining? Complaining is someone who posts a "complaint" that a game was cancelled due to snow when it actually was never cancelled nor posted that it was cancelled but that someone still went on to complain that it had been cancelled. Now that's complaining.
