I am going to try to lay out the top ten as of 10-22-12 for everyone, so you all can try to figure out how the playoffs are gonna role. I will put a new post for each team in order they were ranked. I will explain some things for you all up front. First this is truly factual information as it comes from KHSAA and MaxPreps sites. Second the ranking system works off of teams that a team plays above their perspective class. The way that works is if you are a 1a team and you play a 5a team, you would be plus 4 for that game. I am interested in what everyone thinks about this but please let me get all 10 teams on here before you start posting your replys.

There is one ammendment to the Raceland Rams stats. The opponents combined opponents record shows 43-48. This is partially due to the fact they played Sciotoville Comm out of Ohio. I have researched every site I can think of including OSAA and they show no games played. I know they played and lost this one so they were given a 0-1 record.
I am a Williamsburg fan, but I would not necessarily rank Williamsburg above Hazard or Beechwood. I think these three teams are probably about even, and you could argue reversing these rankings between the three schools. It should be a interesting playoffs for sure.
The last I checked on maxpreps Sciotoville Comm was 3-4. I honestly thing that Raceland is a solid number 6, but i think a healthy Beechwood and Hazard would bump Fairview down to 4 or 5. But as the teams stand RIGHT NOW, i think the realistically its more of a top 8. I dont think Nicholas County can compete with the rest of the top teams in 1a. Its a clear cut 1 and 2. 2-7 can go any number of ways. I still dont believe in Williamsburg simply because that area has been down in 1A for so long. I for see Raceland beatig Fairview in rbd 2 and Hazard beating Williamsburg. Both games will be close. If Raceland controls the football, they will be playing in Bowling Green. If they dont, they will yet again miss out on a substate opportunity. Who ever comes out of the east though, i dont think can win against Frankfort or Mayfield.
for :argue: sake so if we play a 5a schools like south laurel this year we would get 4pt.if we win and like a 4a rockcastle team we would get 3pt.OK i'm folliowing you so far I get it 64SUR. MYSONIS55 :ilikeit:you do an awesome job keep the stats up
moke:
Welcome back 64. I thought the stress of the playoffs had caught up with you. Did someone come by to check on you, I requested your Wburg fans do a welfare check on you. I haven't heard from you in so long, I thought you must have had another stroke. Hang in there you old fart. You cant go yet, I wanna see that sign sticking out your back side. Thanks for complimenting my stats.
From what I saw of nicholas county they shouldn't be on this list.
If what bronson says is correct that would make Raceland's opponents combined record would be 46-51.
No stress hear mysonis55 getting my game face ready for the playoffs.an kicking some :moon:an i will be proud to pull the sign sticking out my back side an giving it to you when we win the 1a state championship
moke:
erved: by the :policeman:policeman:policeman 64SUR ready for a little snow.go fulton,fulton city an russellville:insane::lmao:
64, remember how week you was saying our district is. I think there is a slight chance that Fulton Co could upset Holy Cross and be back here at War Memoria to play us in the second round. I am very confident that Russellville will beat Ky Country Day in the 2nd round and be back here at War Memorial in the 3rd round. That sounds pretty weak to me. Can you say the same about your district?
I don't know much about Holy Cross or KCD but the Fultons are historically weak and it appears on their combined wins this year that has not changed. Your region entails a lot of driving. I guess you would not know that in that you are always the 1 seed. Williamsburg has played Pineville and Harlan for years in that they are 1A schools who are about an hour drive who have been in our district in the past. There are not a lot of schools similar to Mayfield in size who would be competitive within a reasonable drive. Small independents are becoming far and few between. There is talk of South Floyd and Allen Central merging in this part of the state which would take away two more 1A schools in the Eastern part of the state.
1. Mayfield
2-10--Everyone else
I understand the Fulton's are usually weak.:thanks: They do have times when everything comes together for them. Back in 93, Fulton Co went very deep in the playoffs and actually beat Mayfield. In 2007, Fulton City beat us and won the district. We did get them back in the playoffs that year though. My point is not that they are that strong, it is the fact that the other district isn't either. Holy Cross is the 2 seed from the other side. They are 2-8. They have some coaching but apparently are hurting for talent this year. Fulton Co is hurting for coaching but, does have several athletes. I think there is a chance they could beat Holy Cross on a couple big plays and win that game. I am certain though, that Russellville will beat Ky Country Day in Louisville. There is also the fact that we have the #1 and #8 ranked teams in our district. So, our district isn't quiet as weak as 64 stated. :please:
I love the running back from Fulton Co. Number 4. I dont know his name but if he was playing for anybody else we would all know his name. Heck if he had that big lineman from Fulton City on his team Fulton County would make a little noise.

Sciotoville Community finished with a record of 4 wins and 6 losses.
If Ramcat is correct Raceland's opponents had a combined record of 46-52.

I would think Frankfort is clearly seperated themselves as the #2 team.
Guys before we can say clearly who is #1 or #whatever, we have 5 weeks left to play.:thanks::thanks: We certainly dont want a repeat of last year. I dont really want to hear talk that we are certainly the best, until we know that for sure. Right now, I'm going with Hazard as #1 until they loose.
Mayfield is by far and away the best team. They return every one to a team that went to the state finals. They have the tradition, but most importantly they have the speed!!!

Mayfield lost most of the O-line.
