Greenfield advances

[Mister_Wizard]

Greenfield evidently became the first football team in Missouri to advance to the district championships by virtue of a forfeit by Northwest Hughsville earlier this week.

The article in the newspaper stated that the Wildcats had beaten NW Hughsville 88-20 earlier this year.

Congrats 'Cats (who haven't played a single game in the postseason thus far due to a first round bye).

* edited as I found the answer to my earlier question - it is a Kansas rule evidently that a contest can end if one team leads another by 45+ (perhaps 8-man only?)

It will also be interesting to see what this does to Greenfield in the computer rankings. Greenfield was favored by 70 points over Hughesville, but the game will be scored as 13-0 by virtue of forfeit. To my knowledge neither Maxpreps nor Calpreps have anything built into their systems to account for forfeits so it will look like Greenfield barely mustered any offense against a vastly inferior opponent. For what it's worth, Greenfield currently sits 2nd on Calpreps at 32.3 points.

Do people really pay attention to what Maxpreps or Calpreps thinks? I don't get it.

right that is why I say they have a good shot, now after that they may have a hard row to hoe, probably be Stanberry or rock port although worth co could do something
