Now we are starting to see some of the REAL contenders this year

The no.8 team has a test this week against the Cyclones.

5A is wide open this year. Maybe we will see an OR/HC final? I can only hope at least. That game would have a lot of story behind it with Gaddis involved in it.

That would be very special for us here at HC! Even if we lost the game there would be no better team to lose to. But of course we would want the win

He thinks very highly of HC. Besides OR, I think he enjoyed his time more at HC than anywhere.

He brought us back from our worst stretch in history to 3 semifinal appearances in a row. He had the team to win it all and fell short. Great coach.

I still believe there are too many East TN teams on this list and ranked too high.

I'll bet that West can beat seven of the teams on the list...maybe eight!

There are 3 R1 teams in the top 10 (Tenn High, Crockett, Boone).       Crockett has an outstanding team this year, maybe the best ever, however I still predict that none of them make it to the 2nd round of the playoffs.      It always happens that way, a 5-5 or 6-4 R2 team comes to town and whacks a 8-2/9-1 R1 team.     Just the way 5A seems to work out in the east.

3 region 1 teams in the top 10 from a conference that had 4 teams win 0 playoff games last year? Does seem a bit far fetched. Not to mention they have TN High above Boone who gave them their 1 loss

Exactly.       I have seen Boone play, and I am thankful for the wins but we are in no way deserving of a top 10 ranking.     We will drop out in next weeks poll after getting whacked by Science Hill in a couple of days.   Tenn High will also drop out after getting shellacked by Elizabethton on Friday, so that leaves only Crockett remaining ranked amongst R1 teams.
