Biggest SE District Upsets Thus Far?
Biggest SE District Upsets Thus Far?
Here are the ones that stand out to me:
River Valley over 16-3 Oak Hill....the buzzer beater gave the Oak their 1st loss.
2-16 Jackson by 10 over 10-9 Minford
8-10 Whiteoak over 16-2 North Adams
3-14 Southeastern over 11-6 Piketon
Any out there that belong in this group?....which one is the biggest?

Cases can be made for each of these upsets not being that surprising.
River Valley has some good size I think and Oak Hill early on at least was not a very good rebounding team.
Whiteoak played NA very tough at NA and just lost by 5...but what made it so surprising was it was coming when Whiteoak was in a losing slump of sorts and they were coached by their assistant coach (who obvioulsy did a fine job)....and funny enough when NA beat WO....NA was with their assitant coach winning over Whiteoak......so the head caoches with fewer than 5 career wins between them were 2-0 vs the coaches over 700 wins combined....but Whiteoak does have 8 wins.
I know Minford isn't the best team ever...but Jackson has had such major struggles all year and have lost every league game and about 12 in a row....you don't go with this one because they destroyed your Shermans! lol
Had SE kept winning after those players returned....it wouldn't be on this list....but they've struggled since that win.

I guess hitting a 25 foot runner at the buzzer is dominated these days, LOL.
From what I saw of Jackson, they weren't terrible early and I remember Minford struggling, plus it was early in the year. I just think that Piketon is a better team than Minford also. Minford is over .500 though and I think it is a pretty big upset.
