Are they deserving of the #1 Overall seed in the east….can they make it to the state championship and could they possibly win the state championship?
They are for real. Whether or not they can go to state championship game is a different story. Imo, they are top 5 in east. They've beaten east duplin two yrs in a row.

No, they can’t beat the top 5 or 6 teams in the west. They are good but they won’t win the East.

Whether they are deserving of the #1 seed this year I don’t know but I do know Edenton Holmes played them last year in the playoffs and they were legit.

Anyone playing holmes looks legit young buck

Yes they can. Great offensive line,and two stud rb's, and QB. Looks a lot like WRH

Anyone in the east is probably playing for the state runner up title anyway.

The powers at be say they do deserve it, hence their rating. However, whether the powers at be were right or not depends on how Princeton finishes.
While RPI is okay in my opinion...I think it needs tweaking still. I think strength of schedule should play into it...factoring in quality wins and quality losses. Right now RPI is a "how well your schedule has been" rating...doesn't take into account the quality of said wins or losses.

Example...currently a loss is a loss and a win is a win no matter the competition...but I think a 2A losing to a 4A powerhouse should be graded equal to/or higher than a 2A beating a mediocre 1A school...or something similar.

No punishment for good losses and no credit for easy wins
