Quote: I'm not disputing anything you are saying Coach but I know in the past they have not completed games that did not have playoff implications or some reason that it needed to be completed. That rule is not set in stone. This game will in all likelyhood need to be completed. Both teams are in playoff contention. But if both teams were 1 and 11 and this was not a region game, do you really think the SCHSL would make Clover drive and hour to complete or replay this game?
Yes, the SCHSL can decide to waive it's own rule and make an exception. But with all of the tie breakers that consider even non-region games to determine seeding, most games do affect playoff seeding. Especially region games like this one. For example, some of the tie breakers give points for wins based on the final region ranking of the opponent. So a game between two 1-11 teams could affect that points system.
