LHQT Seeding vs FBR Seeding 06APQT

Here is the differences in seeding from what the final FBR projected and what Lake Highlands has for seeding based on the current posted schedule for 06AP.   If it changes I will update again.   After the qualifying tournament is over and all D1 and D3 spots are final I will post a data comparison for both predictions to actual results of the tournament.

Great chart and interesting differences.  Looks like FCD TenBrink made the biggest jump, which is almost entirely weighted on King Tut.  Triumph took the biggest hit, which again is almost entirely based on King Tut.  The single tournament weighting works in your favor if your team played with a few guest players, or it was a killer if your team had sickness, injury and/or vacations.  Not sure how they could put Solar Blue above DTS.  I believe the head to head records between the two are one sided.  I know, I know, it will all get decided during league play at LH, but the optics are wrong.

My predictions on the bracket winners.  Anyone else want take a swing?  

Bracket A - Solar Blue
Bracket B - DTS
Bracket C - DT Glotzbach
Bracket D - Fever
Bracket E - D'Feters Colon
Bracket F - FCD Red
Bracket G - LP Raisbeck
Bracket H - FCD East
Bracket I - Solar Nazier
Bracket J - Texas Spirit North

I want Kounas to win their bracket because I like saying 'Kounas'.

I agree with Shake N Bakes predictions except I think Perette may pull off bracket win for Bracket H.  

I will be cheering  for Fever Stephen in Bracket F.  

Bracket D Fever Phiri should pull the bracket win but I expect Solar Byars to bring his best this weekend.  

Heat and 9-10 year olds may bring a few surprises. But definitely King Tut vs games prior to signing day make a difference when you don't have the ability to guest as much and/or play 06s that intend on signing with a sister team or play up with 05 sister team.

DTS really should have been seed 20 in bracket A second spot for sitting at home in the air conditioning all weekend.

A - Solar
B - DTS
C - Glotz
D - Fever
E - Feet
F - Tenbrink
G - TNT
H - FCD East
I - Naizer
J - Kounas

Its the 10 group winners plus the top 2 second place finishers...

Any predictions on the top 2 second place?

My picks...

- Solar "Magenta"
- NTX Celtic Blevins (just throwing a dart on the wall on this one)

Monk and Kicks

My predictions for 12 that move on to D1

Bracket A - Solar Blue
Bracket B - DTS
Bracket C - DT Glotzbach
Bracket D - Fever and Solar Byars
Bracket E - D'Feters Colon
Bracket F - FCD Red
Bracket G - LP Raisbeck
Bracket H - FCD East and Kicks Perette
Bracket I - Solar Nazier
Bracket J - Texas Spirit North

20? I was thinking 40.

Not seeing the Kounas thing, although the name does stick with you. They won a Silver B bracket primarily because Solar White only played three games and they played four. Never going to win a pool at qualifying.

Liverpool with only 2 teams in qualifying? Highest ranked team is Raisbeck, which I don't know much about. It's been a while since LP was this invisible at qualifying.

20 is about right we stayed home one weekend you dropped us 9 spots.

I think 25 is fair.

Should have picked a different weekend to get rid of those tan lines.

DD did some jet skiing to help with her tan lines.

We had to play to overcome a 17 pre TUT rank, don't think ranking person likes us. Lol

That's what it was. It had nothing to do with y'all playing Silver in tournaments.

Isn't this the team that thought they were jdl... went on a rant about another team not being jdl... but ended up not being jdl?

Yep, not JDL, still sad. Just have to earn LH, all you can do, last I looked half the top 20 was silver teams, we played 1 tourney in silver, nice try, we played gold or platinum everywhere else, obvious from our record right?

We've been hanging around getting the crap kicked out of us for a while, that JDL and top 3 team playing stuff ain't fun! But it's fun to watch.

Good luck to your group! I hope you guys establish yourself as the top '06 team in your Club. Serious.

Thank you, not there yet, getting a little better every month. Hard to overcome bad coaching! Lol

Best of luck to all the girls going through QT this weekend! Keep those young ladies hydrated!!!

I hope all of your girls play well and especially stay healthy! Good luck all!

And Fever Stephen got 4th in silver b and they moved up to 15th. It will be interesting for sure.
