Looks pretty similar to High School OTs. I suppose Maiden Newton outcome will be pretty important as well as Pisgah Brevard outcome.

This is awesome Grizzly! Thank you

Why are the RPI standings on NCHSAA website (updated 10-28) different than these? The NCHSAA website has top 5 listed this way (no East or West): Brevard, Reidsville, East Duplin, Central Davidson and West Craven. Grizzly has both East Duplin and West Craven ahead of Reidsville. I know playing a moribund McMichael team this Friday will do a lot of damage to Reidsville's points, but I didn't think that much??
Reidsville 0.68, E Duplin 0.66 and W Craven 0.63 now.

TheMule1 · Tuesday at 12:57 PM

Reidsville/Brevard will be 1/2 or 2/1. The only difference will be in the very small changes in the opponents RPIs

These have his ASSUMED outcomes for this Friday’s games built into the projections.

He’s playing the role of analyst and prognosticator on this thread.

We need to give Grizzly a raise!

Grizzly seems to think that playing 2-7 McMichael is going to put a hurting on Reidsville's numbers. McMichael's non-conference opponents also have really bad records although South Stokes (one of the teams McMichael beat) could finish 5-5.
West Craven is 8-1 and East Duplin 7-2.

CoachKnowy · Tuesday at 1:36 PM

My predictions for the top 8 in the east are the following. I have not done the west. I think Reidsville is a lock for the 1 seed.

Reidsville
East Duplin
West Craven/Central Davidson (If WC beats Eastern Wayne they move to 3, if they lose they will be 5)
Central Davidson/Randleman (Based on WC game)
Randleman/West Craven
Bunn

Once you get past the top 6 there are a lot of variables. TWA plays a winless team which will drastically impact their
TW Andrews/Eastern Wayne (Depending on WC game)
Eastern Wayne/TW Andrews/SW Randolph

The most time consuming part is calculating the OOWP.

FantasticFour · Tuesday at 1:41 PM

East Duplin plays 3-6 South Lenoir this week, not much difference then McMichael 2-7. West Craven is playing 6-2 Eastern Wayne. Reagan plays East Forsyth will help Reidsville alot. Northern plays Southeast Guilford and Eastern Guilford plays NE Guilford. GW Danville only loss this year is Reidsville.

West Craven is 8-1 and East Duplin 7-2.

It's not just adding in their 0.22222 winning percentage after Friday...but several other teams you've already played will have a worse record after Friday night as well and their WP will also drop.

The total differential I have for Reidsville RPI is -0.02000.

ncfootball_17 · Tuesday at 1:42 PM

ED is playing a team that is 3-6 (South Lenoir).
WC is playing a team that is 6-2 (Eastern Wayne).
Reidsville is playing a team that is 2-7 (McMichael).

Reidsville OWP will take a slight hit. Remember that OWP is 40% of the equation. So even when all (ED, WC, Reidsville) win, WC will be 9-1, while ED and Reidsville are 8-2. Your winning percentage is also 40%. The last 20% is your OOWP.

To keep it simple, we'll just talk about Reidsville. They have played 9 teams this far. Those teams make up Reidsville OWP. Now you have to track all the teams that played those teams. That will make up Reidsville's OOWP.

So even if Reidsville wins, the fact that McMichael is 2-7, that brings down their OWP. Then Reidsville will have to depend on Northern Guilford, George Washington (VA), Reagan & Eastern Guilford to win or it could bring down their OWP more. It also depends on who those teams play. For instance Northern Guilford (8-1) plays Southeast Guilford (6-3). NG should win, which helps Reidsville's OWP and 6-3 team isn't bad, so that should help Reidsville's OOWP. However, George Washington (VA) plays a 2-6 team, so that 2-6 team is going to hurt Reidsville's OOWP.

While the math is simple, the figuring out who wins and tracking the OOWP is very time consuming.

I haven't been following GW Danville ... but dang, they've been on a roll after getting slammed by Reidsville 42-14.

This is the POTENTIAL final RPI could be based on educated assumptions on games this week. I left each teams current OOWP as it is because I simply did not want to take the time to factor it, but 80% of the formula (WP 40% + OWP 40% are changed). I did factor West Craven beating Easter Wayne into this breakdown.

Reidsville WP- 8-2= .8x.4=.32; OWP-.60920 x .4=.24368; I left OOWP the same as currently posted on RPI (too time consuming).51372x.2=.10274. .32+.24368+.10274= .66642

East Duplin WP 8-2 .8x.4=.32; OWP .5909 x .4=.23636; OOWP .5199 x .2= .10398. .32+.23636+.10398=.66034

West Craven (Assuming a W of EW) .9x.4=.36; OWP .44705 x.4 = .17882. OOWP .5611 x .2= .11222. .36+.17882+.11222=.65104

Central Davidson WP .9x.4=.36; OWP .45555 x .4 =.18222; OOWP .51785 x .2 = .10357. .36+.18222+.10357= .64579

Now obviously the OOWP will not be the same but like I said I did not want to factor a change as it would be too time consuming. But if you look at the data I gave, and know that there are, i think, 1000 variables factored into OOWP it more than likely will not change a tremendous amount and thus not impact a change in the overall RPI of each team. This is why I think it could be

1. Reidsville
2. East Duplin
3. West Craven (have to beat Eastern Wayne)
4. Central Davidson

When you're talking thousands of a point (so .00#) a small change can be huge. So while your math shows who should be the top 4 teams, a small change can have a huge impact on what exact order those teams will be.

The OWP is calculated based on 100 games. You have 10 opponent's and they all play 10 games.

The OOWP is calculated based on a 1000 games. You have 10 opponents, your opponent's all play 10 games, their opponent's play 10 games.

With that said, everyone has a game left so 1 game plays into your win percentage. 10 games play into your OWP this week and 100 games play into your OOWP. Now most of those games have already been played, but they now become part of the calculations for the teams.

There's still a game to play, so anything could happen and like a said, one upset could have ripple effects on many teams. It'll be interesting to see this weekend where everyone is seeded.

Don’t Reidsville and East Duplin have to win too? Just asking for a friend.

OWP is 9 games per team (90 total). The game your opponent plays against you is removed. It's how well they've done outside of your game that'sbeing captured.

Ex: you beat a team that finished 2-8. The OWP for that team, for your RPI calcs, is based off a 2-7 record. So 2÷9=0.22222

You beat a 5-5 team. It's calculated based of a 5-4 record. So 5÷9=0.55556

Etc etc

East Duplin WP 8-2 .8x.4=.32; OWP .5909 x .4=.23636; OOWP .5199 x .2= .10398. .32+.23636+.10398=.66034

West Craven (Assuming a W of EW) .9x.4=.36; OWP .44705 x.4 = .17882. OOWP .5611 x .2= .11222. .36+.17882+.11222=.65104

Central Davidson WP .9x.4=.36; OWP .45555 x .4 =.18222; OOWP .51785 x .2 = .10357. .36+.18222+.10357= .64579

Now obviously the OOWP will not be the same but like I said I did not want to factor a change as it would be too time consuming. But if you look at the data I gave, and know that there are, i think, 1000 variables factored into OOWP it more than likely will not change a tremendous amount and thus not impact a change in the overall RPI of each team. This is why I think it could be

1. Reidsville
2. East Duplin
3. West Craven (have to beat Eastern Wayne)
4. Central Davidson

***Update - I heard the Reidsville crowd loud and clear....took another look and I botched the Walkertown OWP. Walkertown is playing only 9 games this year and not 10. Plus I took a win away and not a loss. I've adjusted and yes, Reidsville will be the 1-seed out of the east. It only shuffled 3 teams around. Here is the updated Final Projection Bracket:

West	East
1 - Brevard	1 - Reidsville
BYE	BYE
16 - Wilkes Cent	16 - Jordan Matthews
17 - RS Cent	17 - Red Springs
9 - North Surry	9 - Eastern Wayne
24 - West Stanly	24 - Anson
8 - Burns	8 - SW Randolph
BYE	BYE

4 - Pisgah	4 - Central Davidson
BYE	BYE
13 - West Iredell	13 - North Pitt
20 - East Burke	20 - Morehead
12 - Tuscola	12 - SW Edgecombe
21 - Fred T Foard	21 - Cummings
5 - Newton-Conover	5 - Randleman
BYE	BYE


2 - Hibriten	2 - West Craven
BYE	BYE
15 - West Stokes	15 - Nash Central
18 - Lake Norman Ch	18 - Roanoke Rapids
10 - Lexington	10 - Clinton
23 - South Rowan	23 - Ledford
7 - Stuart Cramer	7 - TW Andrews
BYE	BYE

3 - Maiden	3 - East Duplin
BYE	BYE
14 - Forbush	14 - North Johnston
19 - Ashe Co	19 - Washington
11 - Bandys	11 - Carver
22 - Salisbury	22 - SW Onslow
6 - Mount Pleasant	6 - Bunn
BYE	BYE

I don't mind them at all. Nor do I mind the Shelby crowd. There are 2 fanbases that get on my nerves though...just not those 2.

Not all of the fanbase...but most of them for the Mount Hairy Gummy Bears and the Hillary Clinton Pale Ponies

I haven't seen much from anybody from Mt Airy. I stayed out of 1A because they seemed to have psychos over there that might show up at your porch.

2A and 3A were fun, and 4As were boring half the time, and fun the other half.

I guess they're not quite the "Grizzly" bears they were in that pop warner kiddie league, so they're more quiet.. or still trying to log on

The Dull Horses were fun till they became preferred for homecoming games

I was messing. Rambbq and The Mule are a couple of great guys. Theres another but I’m struggling to remember his old username. Something 24. I see him every time I’ve been to one of their games.

I hope we do meet up with west craven in the playoffs. Should be a good match up

TheMule1 · 2025-10-30T17:53:44-0500

FWIW, I am being told by one person that the two “new” player suspects will not be suiting up because the families decided to not relocate. Another person says they never had any serious interest in transferring. Can’t see that new players this late in the season would be any help at all.

Well, Otis, at least you don’t have to worry about going East or West! It would be awesome to see you in Reidsville this year.
