What is the best improvement that we have seen from a regular-season matchup to a playoff matchup? In the regular season, Liberty Center lost to Archbold 41-7. They won in the playoffs 38-35. They went from -34 to +3. That is an improvement of 37 points.

Has there ever been a bigger swing than this one?

Back in 2010, I remember Shadyside losing to Bridgeport 21-14. They won the playoff 28-0. That's an improvement of 35 points.

So, what else can you remember?
 
 
2018 state champ Orville lost to Manchester 67-31 during regular season but then beat them 43-19 in playoffs. 60 point swing
 
Last season Dover lost at Steubenville 28-7 then in the second round of the playoffs Dover won at Steubenville 42-21 a 42 point swing
In 2008 Dover lost to Canton South 26-17 then beat them 35-14 in the second round of playoffs a 32 point swing
In 2006 Dover lost to Cambridge 41-35 then beat them in the second round of playoffs 42-9 a 39 point swing.

That Cambridge game was especially crazy. They were also 11-0 at the time.
 
in 2011, CHCA lost 35-6 at home to Madeira in week 2 and then beat them on the road in the playoffs 16-10 for a 35 point swing

Dover has done this three times. That says a lot about Dan Ifft. He's a great coach.
 
Central had a 16 point swing against St. Johns. From 0-38 to 0-54. Not the biggest swing but those last two TDs are always hardest.
