Here is why Boyle and Danville or Belfry and Pikeville will still play.

Money. The gate receipts are as important as seeding for every school.

True. After district games are played, they will still have 5 other games to schedule up in class to help improve RPI. Even though Belfry didn't get any points for playing up and lost the game, Pikeville still provides them with some decent rpi points with then being undefeated and the 2nd highest rpi in the state. I'm not sure Coach Haywood will worry as much about rpi as other coaches will as far as scheduling. He simply wants to play the best teams that helps his team improve and get ready for playoffs.
