Only reason why they do not play those teams from WV is becuase WV's playoff system is based on a point system and if they lose a game they get no points from it and they get no benefit from it. In WV, you can have a 10-0 team who plays an easy schedule ranked lower than an 8-2 team who has played a very tough schedule. From what I understand, you get more points for beating a 3a school than beating a 2a school or a 1a school but if they would beat Belfry they would get maximum points since WV only has 3 class system. In WV, the playoff is set up like the NCAA basketball tournament. There are 16 teams from each class that qualify for the playoff and the 1 seed plays the 16 seed, 2 seed vs. 15 seed, and so on. Just like if Mingo Central played Belfry and lost they would get nothing beneficial out of it. But from what I've heard this is not why Belfry and Mingo Central will not play. It's because Coach Haywood has no respect for Yogi Kinder and doesn't want to play them since he's the coach.
