Ask Bell and Rock about putting stock in that game and then having playoff success. Not every team focuses on a mountain game and then loses always in the playoffs.

Many times Rock v Bell would be a massively attended and talked about game and then one of the teams would go far in the post season. How many times in the 2000's did either Rock or Bell make it to the state semi's?

Thats not what were talking about.
Bell and Rock put stock into there games because they were in the same district and it was worth something.
We are only talking about non district games.
