We haven’t played anyone. We still haven’t played a winning team in the NYS league. We need to do that soon. By the look of things we aren’t going to have 8 games this season. Feels like the only way to even out the number of games is for us to have 7. That puts the next game as our last game of the regular season. So, if not now, when? Playoffs. That’s when. It’s an awful idea to face our first real test when a loss means the end of the season. However, it is entirely possible that this happens. Here’s how:
The top 4 teams are going to be D1 teams and compete for the state D1 championship. 3 teams are undefeated. Given how the league ranks teams (Points For) the idea would likely be to put teams on the verge of D1 against each other to see who is the top. That means the 1 loss teams face off. That also likely means not putting one of the undefeated teams up against each other or up against any real competition or–in a perfect world–against each other. That would mean 5-0 Raiders v. 5-0 Irish. My guess would be the Liberty Lions vs. the West Valley Spartans as another matchup and the Argos v. a 2 win team.
We’ll see Tuesday.
