Ghost Posted July 7, 2019 Share Posted July 7, 2019 “I guess the early season results which were NOT head-to-head were pretty accurate. Who would have thunk it?” I imagine if a stat enthusiast were to look at recent years, they might see similar results. There usually are very few major gains/drops after SA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Placement gains? Yes. Cavs ran down Cadets in 16 to place 5th after trailing them through the whole second half of the season. Cavs alsro ran down Bluecoats in 17 after never beating them all season. And Cavs got run down by BAC a week after San Antonio in 18 and couldn't reclaim their turf. It does happen. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cavies passing the Cadets at SF in 16 was a one position move. Several corps that year moved up a position after SA. Academy and Boston moving up one spot forced Madison to drop two spots.

While that doesn't make it probable this would happen, it is certainly possible. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see who can tweak their show to add points which will separate them from others in that group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying stuff is possible doesn’t make for interesting conversation though! 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if memory serves correct, Cavs was nearly two pointing the entire field first month of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFA1970 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 San Antonio will be who’s where and where things stand. And a week later it may be all different. Isn’t this what’s its supposed to be? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
