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?
