Who is everyone's playoff sleepers? Teams that might not win state, but could pull off some upsets. It happens every year, a team wins a ballgame or two that on paper they shouldn't. Curious to hear everyone's thoughts.

For me it's Strom Thurmond. They are a #3 seed that, has a tough road, but essentially beat #1 Batesburg last week. Coach decided to fake punt late in the game up 7-0 to try and score and win tiebreaker to clinch #1 seed. If you watched the game, I did on someone's live I found lol, Thurmond won that game. That 2A Upper-state is a gauntlet!!

I agree with this, but I think whoever wins the Strom Thurmond at Chester game could cause havoc. Chester is much better than their record in my opinion.

A 5-5 White Knoll team.
Close loss to Sumter. Only team to really beat them bad was DF.

Ditto on White Knoll. They aren’t as good as last year, but lower state 5A D2 is woefully weak outside of Irmo. Expect those two to play for the lower state title

QB for White Knoll did not play against Chapin. They are a different team when he is not on the field.
