David Mundee There will be plenty of scoreboard watching this week among Class 7A, Region 2 playoff-bound teams.
People are also reading… Should one or two of the teams lose then the region race gets settled without going into complex tiebreakers as head-to-head results would determine the two through four seeds between the teams who seem pretty even. Auburn edged Dothan in double-overtime, Enterprise edged Auburn on a last-second field goal and Dothan beat Enterprise with a touchdown with two minutes left and held off a last-second threat with Enterprise at the 10-yard line.
That brings it down to tiebreaker l, the team whose defeated non-region opponents have the most victories if all teams involved in the tie play an equal number of games. Auburn is stuck at 12 wins because Hoover and Ramsay have finished their season. Dothan could forge ahead with wins by Carroll over St. James and Baker over Mountain Brook, but Enterprise can do the same with wins by Eufaula over Early County and Rehobeth over G.W. Long.
This would also end tied as all the region results are the same and the head-to-head wins against each other is even as all three tied teams finished 8-2. However, if the Bulldogs lose to HA and the Bobcats beat Ashford, the two teams finished tied with 4-4 region marks and Opp’s head-to-head win gives the Bobcats the fourth spot.Playoff-bound: Fourteen Dothan Eagle coverage teams in the AHSAA have secured playoff spots. Pike County or Opp will bump the list to 15.
