Charlotte Observer 2A/2AA Playoff Projections
- Thread starter Chopper747
- Start date
Pretty much, man. I don’t want to engage in the redundant East vs West thing again, but when is the last time a bonified eastern team won it all in 2A/2AA? And, what I mean by “bonified”, is not one of those teams like a Reidsville or an Andrews that occasionally goes east, but are really western teams. I’m talking true eastern teams. There’s already talk that North Davidson will be in the east.
From my observation, in my opinion, the West is stronger in football, the East is stronger in basketball. Northside went undefeated last season in hoops, blew out everyone.
But, having said this, there seems to be parity this year. East Duplin is looking strong out east, but as far as 2A goes, I don’t see anyone challenging Reidsville or Shelby. 2AA West could see Shelby, South Point, Newton Conover, and Hibriten, murderers row. East Duplin and North Davidson, a western team who is rumored to be placed in the east, are the top contenders. Just my opinion.

We will see murderers row in 2AA west. 2nd round game for somebody is going to be the end of the season for a team with 4th round/state ambitions. After what was confirmed last Friday. There are all kind of numbers going around but with the number told, get the popcorn ready.
FYI... North Davidson is a team that has sent traditionally top 4A teams like Easth Forsyth and Scotland County home in 3rd and 4th rounds. I think they are the most dangerous team in the 2A right now although they are slightly flying under the radar because of their one loss to Tabor(I think it was Mt Tabor).
why even bother with the state title games then? its a waste of everybody's time.
And us go big 2A?
I'm telling you....you REALLY do not want to play us. Defense wins championships and barring any injuries, you aren't gonna be able to do ANYTHING on this Shelby D. Our offense is coming in sync and has 3 more weeks to fine tune before facing the defending 3A state champ that we beat last year 24-0. I would LOVE to play you guys and destroy you again just for fun. I guess we will see in a month or so if everything does line up. #DRIVEFORFIVE
Once again, can't figure out if you're just so self absorbed and you just can't help yourself. Two. You do it just to get a response from people. Three. You're just a clown that sits around in his Lion Cave with trophies from his past proudly displayed. Autographed photos you and your favorite players through the years. A big picture of a Ram with a big red circle and slash through it.
Keep telling yourself when you fall asleep with your Simba blanket and your beloved "most improved" trophy... I'm not afraid of Rams. I'm not afraid of Rams.

love the TR quote!Most of the West teams can sleep all they want on Northeastern as the earliest they could possibly see them would be December 8/9. Why should they worry about something that can't happen for 8 weeks or may not happen at all, either because they don't make it that far themselves or Northeastern doesn't?
No. Reidsville should be 2a. Several are suggesting Shelby will be 2a now vs 2AA. CarolinaVarsity.com has them in 2a by more than just a few students. Who knows.
Really? You really went there? How many of your trophies were won when leather helmets were being worn?
Not talking about Shelby Trophies.... I'm talking about your personal trophies from rec league and middle school. Hell you may even get a replica Championship Ring for all your support through the years.
#14 in 3A averaging 27 points a game against way more difficult comp than Reidsville's
#13 in 3A averaging 39.7 points per game against way more difficult comp than Reidsville's
#7 team in the NATION averaging 42 points per game against way way more difficult comp than Reidsville's
(You forgot about the 8 AC reynolds got....the #12 team in 3A averaging 41 ppg.)
No....no breaks given.
All that matters is who's holding the trophy at the end regardless if ya play the hardest teams in state or the softness in state
I revised my 2AA projections this morning (based on last year's ADM numbers, so still at least half way a shot in the dark), and now both North Davidson and Ledford head West...because both Anson and Southern Vance slip into 2AA East with big surprise wins last Friday
Don’t know about Reidsville, but with what the principal confirmed last Friday, Shelby is 2AA. Still keep hearing a higher number for them. On most of the playoff predictions you would have two/three other teams that will have to drop down to 2a before Shelby does. That is why I said come 2nd round a team with 4th round/state ambitions will be done.
I don't think FBC realizes 98/72 is actually three people.
Anyway, I am hoping that Shelby goes 2AA. Don't you people realize I'm on blood pressure medication. I need to see blow outs. Years ago I watched a gentleman from Shelby take a nitroglycerin pill in the visitor bleachers at Cummings before the game even started. I don't want to be that guy.
Let's pretend Shelby and Reidsville play in the fourth round of 2A. There goes all the fun. The state championship game will just be a coronation instead of a contest. Most importantly, it will end the year round game of what if. Deana will grow bored in the off season without the constant moderating of the ongoing 98/72 vs. the world conflict.
In the name of all that is holy, please God let Shelby go 2AA.
Someone really needs to develop a sarcasm font.

Unless the Anson County school has moved it is west of both North and Ledford. even though the edge of Anson County does go further East.
I can’t see North Lincoln even making it. They ought to considering they only lost to ACentral by 4 points
I would like to believe you are right, but the competition has been so weak since week 2 or 3 that we really have no gauge on improvement. We will wait and see, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Shelby and South Point are both programs that have been there, done that. That means a lot come crunch time.
I worry about ND. Their competition has been sooo terrible. I could see a 2nd round team being a nightmare for them
