Class 2A Football Playoff Team Predictions & Projections Week 7

Class 2A Football Playoff Team Predictions & Projections Week 7

This year to reach the playoffs is simple. Either win your league title or be inside the top 16 of the RPI. After they select the 16 teams that make the playoffs, they use the CHSAA Seeding Index to seed the playoffs. This week I will be giving my predictions on who makes the playoffs, but I will also look at if the season ended today who would make the playoffs at the end. I am picking League Champions from my league predictions article.

Class 2A Playoff Predictions (Who I think will make the playoffs)

This is who I think make the playoffs and who win the leagues. In the Class 2A League champions are guaranteed a berth. The rest will be selected by RPI. 9 At-Large berths will be given out and are selected via RPI. Seeding is determined by CHSAA Seeding Index. I am picking my 9 At-Large teams via non-league schedules, remaining schedules, and how I think teams will do. League Champions are posted first then the At-Large Teams.
