Of Course this is not the final RPI and things could still change before the seeding committee tomorrow morning.

(RPI pulled on 9:00pm 10/28/2017)

Note:  Win! Take care of business and you will get in!

Playoffs (Straight from Chsaanow.com): The Top 16 teams in the classification based on the final RPI rankings will be placed into the post-season bracket and the league champion also gets an automatic berth.  If a conference champion is not rankings in the top 16 based on RPI rankings they will replace the lowest ranked team that is not a conference champion in the top 16.

  • The following criteria will be taken into consideration when seeding bracket, in no particular order: geography, RPI, common opponents, and head to head competition
  • A conference champion in the top 16 of the final RPI rankings will be a top 8 seed and will host a first round game
  • Aa conference champion no ranked in the top 16 of the final RPI rankings will be placed in the bracket but will not be guaranteed a top 8 seed and will not be guaranteed to host a first round game.
  • Conference opponents will not be paired against one another in the first round.

Notes: When Hotchkiss lost to Cedaredge in the final game it locked Wray into the playoffs and also gave Colorado Springs Christian the #16 spot.  The final spot is separated by .001 which is insane.

19 Del Norte .508 6-3 .667 .342 .518
20 Hayden .507 5-4 .556 .464 .499

 

Notes: Like I had mentioned in the 8-Man breakdown.  The two league title shook everything up in the RPI.  Sargent smashed Mancos and Springfield made quick work of McClave.  Springfields win moved South Park out of the Top 16 and also Caliche beating Akron got Caliche .003 over South Park for the Final Spot.  If McClave would have won South Park gets into the playoffs.  What a crazy year for 8-Man and I cannot wait for the playoffs.

  1. Sincerely doubt that Salida will be #10 seed in front of Machebeuf.
    #1 – Salida to Basalt is closer than Machebeuf to Basalt
    #2 – Machebeuf only lost to undefeated Kent Denver
    #3 – Salida lost to CA and LaJunta (who Kent Denver beat)
    #4 – Machebeuf beat Elizabeth at Elizabeth by nearly the same margin as LaJunta beat Elizabeth at Elizabeth

    1. Yes sir you are correct. I believe that the RPI was misread and Machebeuf should be ahead of Salida. It is updated with Machebeuf ahead of Salida. Thanks for catching that.
