I think probably the biggest shakeup would be McCort's outcome against BG. If they lose, they get the 12 seed. If they win they jump to the No. 8 seed and would get a home playoff game. I don't expect McCort to win, but that's a big difference either way.

I don’t believe United will lose.

Well in this little scenario, I have United losing. But it wouldn't surprise me if they win.

Although I do believe if they win, and they draw McCort first round, that will be a tough one ahead...

Your scenarios for AA and AAA look very possible.  With A, it is almost an impossible task to predict exact seeding because there are so many 5-4 and 4-5 teams competing in the crossover games which have an impact.  If any one of several games go the other way, the seeding is affected.  It looks like you had LV, NC, CT, Meyersdale, HC, MC, BBV, and BV winning the relevant crossover games.  I could see that happening - but one or two wrong will impact the seeding.

Even if PC wins can they really make the playoffs?  If Tyrone wins no ? If Huntington wins yes? Or is it a done deal it doesn't matter what PC does Tyrone or Huntingdon is in with a win ??

I think so. If they beat Forest Hills that would be worth 170 points. But they would need to Huntingdon to beat Tyrone probably.

I agree, PRFootball. If United is firing on all cylinders, they will surprise a lot of people.

Thanks to the Heritage dominance over the WestPac Marion Center was able to go from outside looking in to clinching a spot without even taking the field Friday night. Unfortunately for them the reward is likely a rematch with LV.

Also a win Saturday night by Purchase Line would put them in a tie with Blacklick Valley for the 12th and final spot in 1A. PL would get the spot based on record vs common opponents by virtue of their win over Saltsburg last week.
