I don't understand why a running clock is a topic of discussion for rounds 3 and 4. Teams that make it to these rounds are the best in regions. I do understand that some regions are weaker than others but still at this level of play you should just be happy with a win. Higher ranked teams get beaten at all levels of play by non ranked teams. They call them up sets. and they can and do happen. I don't see a running clock in any of the semi state games. May be wrong but don't think so.

Arrogance and ignorance play role when people make these kinds of predictions. But in defense of people who make said predictions, there have been many examples of running clocks in these rounds in the past. Many posters make predictions on their team results alone without actually doing any research. That is where the ”ignorance” comes in because they simply are not educated on the other teams.
