Woodruff beat palmetto when they were rank #8 top ten so they should have a 1-2 record vs top ten losing to carolina twice.

That's exactly why that stat doesn't really matter. It also doesn't take in to account the 1A, 3A and 4A games that were played.

True. Lincoln, Academic Magnet, West Ashely, Bluffton, Senneca, and Fort were all ranked when Hanahan played them.

I did take into account when I did my "unofficial" rankings the games against 1A, 3A, and 4A teams. I had my own little +3, +4 think going on for wins. That is why some of the teams are ranked a little higher, (IMO) even though they may have lower records.
Also - the records against top ten teams are considering teams that are presently ranked in the top ten. I started to consider the rankings when the game was actually played, but that was WAY too much work to go back and get the rankings every week.
Just trying to have a little fun with the break down and predictions. We will all see the seedings on Friday or Saturday as they are worked out.

To answer the main question of the thread - - -
I feel that there are 5-6 teams (B-L, Emerald, Carolina, Pendleton, Walhalla, and possibly saluda) who can win Upper State.
There are really two main teams in Lower State (Bishop England and Waccamaw).
In the end - either Lower State team can take any of the Upper State teams.
Just My Opinion - but would love to know what you all think?

Taketheshot, I know this stuff is time consuming, but how does Walhalla have a -1 strength of schedule when they've played three 3A games and six 4A games?

How do you figure out strength of schedule? Also, I do not know much about the uppper part of the state, does Andrew Jackson play anyone who is any good?

Strength of Scedule is simply taking the over/under number of games won or lost of their opponents. I know there is much more that goes into strength of schedule. But this isn't computer rankings.
Walhalla has played a number of 3A and 4A teams, but most of these teams were average or below average teams. If you remove one game against Greenville, The combined records of the other games against 3A and 4A competition is below .500 at 67-69.
Andrew Jackson has played a fairly tough schedule. It included North Myrtle beach (3A #3) and West Ashley (4A #11). But also included Lancaster at 3-16 and several 1A teams.
It all works out in the wash - - -
