7 Leedey                         2 Leedey

14 Tyrone                        14 Boise City
15 Mulhall-Ordlando       16 Arnet
17 Balko                          15 Forgan

AERA II:

5 Red Oak                        6 Hammon

10 Butner                         17 Red Oak
19 Buffalo Valley             19 Paden

2 Roff                               5 Lookeba-Sickles
3 Duke                             7 Duke

11 Big Pasture                 9 Cyril
12 Cyril                            11 Roff
18 Cement                       18 Erick

AREA IV:
Boys:                               Girls:
6 Battiest                         4 Kiowa
8 Kinta                             8 Pittsburg

13 Whitesboro                 12 Whitesboro
16 Sasakwa                     10 McCurtain
20 Pittsburg                     20 Moyers

You could switch Kinta and Red Oak areas.

There have been many times that #1 and #2 have been in the same area. Geographically, both Lomega and Hammon are in the NE. If Duke goes to AREA I they will not be in the same regional with Leedey, they will have their own regional (either the host or first round). Erick has NEVER gone to AREA IV,  Lomega has several times, but they asked to go there and both teams (boys and girls) were ranked in the top 8. Look and compare on maps at the difference in Roff and Kiowa. Kiowa is south of McAlister, Roff is west of Ada. You, me or anyone trying to predict the playoffs this early          or even days before, does not need to come on here and say they were wrong. These are fun (for me anyways ) and debatable. Isn't that why we predict the playoffs in the first place...

1 and 2 haven’t gone with each other since the creation of this ranking system. It’s kind of one of there rules to avoid putting top 4 seeds together if all possible. They have put 3 and 4 together twice that I know of but never 1 and 2.

Yes I remember that and I'm almost positive they did in 08 as well but that was all before this ranking system. From what I understand is the OSSAA has some unwritten rules with this ranking system that 1 and 2 never go with each other but you never know I guess, anything could happen.

Ya know I've heard class A complain about playoff travel in the past? Could Varnum go NW??

Personally I think predictions are a crapshoot but not dysfunctional like the rankings

Lomega is the real deal, They didn't lose anyone from last year, I watched them play Okeene tonight and have frequently watched them over the course of the season, I mainly watched the streams as I am about 3hrs back east of there, Ady Wilson and Emma Duffy is definitely the best frontcourt in Class B, I don't know how Leedey and Hammon would matchup with them, Lomega plays in the Hammon Tournament this week so if Hammon makes it to the first place game we will see how that goes, Varnum without Kinsey I'm not sure can even come close to competing with them, The Lady Raiders are the favorite to go back to back for a reason
