Not bashing any of the picks here at all. I'm just wondering from the guys picking TL Hanna over South Aiken, what is the basis on this? I just want to know what makes this such a popular upset pick. What advantages do you perceive the Jackets as having and where do you percieve the weaknesses on SA? Again, I'm not downing your pick or allegiances, I just want to engage in soem discussion on this match-up with some minds who see past the T-bred veil that I wear.

Nothing against South Aiken I know that the are a very talented team...But I just feel that goin into the playoffs that TL Hanna is looking very strong...but its goin to be a hard fought game is goin to come right down to the wire

Fair enough assumption. The jackets do seem to be playing pretty good since they've returned from overseas. How did they finish tied third in the region? Is Greenwood and Mauldin that tough? The only comparisons I've had on either of those teams is a pair of 3-1 Greenwood losses to Aiken, not bad considering how Aiken is this year.

What gives LSC, no faith in Reigon 8 teams? Ain't no way Hilton Head loses to Airport or Summerville loses to Sumter. And I'm calling out the upset for Fort Dorchester over Dutch Fork just because they're pretty lucky and I'm a Reigon 8 fan.
