Most fans are biast to their favorite team. Obvioulsy, that is a reason why there are so many varied and sometimes ludicrous opinions on who the best team in the state is. Also, White Station has developed a repuation as being one of the elite teams in the nation. How many other teams in the state have been nationally ranked in the top 25 over the past couple of years and been able to maintain that ranking. I may be wrong, but I can't think of any. I think White Station is put in a class by themselves. They are expected to make it to the state tournament, and most people probably expect them to win it. When people discuss who they think the best team in the state is, what they are really discussing is who the second best team is or possibly the third best, behind Bradley Central. They just ignore White Station because, like i said earlier, they are in a class of their own, and it is a given that they are the best. It makes for a more attractive discussion if you elminate them as an option to pick from becasue it levels the playing field for the other teams in state which, in turn, opens the discussion up to a larger number of people.
