Comparing the last poll to this poll, something looks fishy. Whitehaven's numbers don't add up. They had 126 and they get another 1st place vote and only have 134? Did the  other voters drop them? Why would someone do this? The reason is to increase their local teams ranking. I don't like it.

The maximum if all voters voted the same is as follows:

1 180

2. 162

3. 144

4. 126

5. 108

6.  90

7.  72

8.  54

9.  36

10.18

I agree with you Red Rebel.  Smells Fishy.  How do you drop a team in the ranking when they went into the #1 team in Arkansas and top 300 team in the nation and shut them out on their home field and put up 23 points?  Voters should have their voting privilege's taken away for not being educated on these teams 

[pigskinred]

How is Germantown (1-2) ranked ahead of Cordova (2-1) and Cordova beat them?

[dannyq]

Why is Houston not ranked? Houston is the second best team in 6A in Memphis!

[Swipes]

It comes down to once again voter's not being educated.  You have Whitehaven who dropped a spot after beating a national ranked team, Cordova behind a team they beat, and Houston not even in the top 10.  This is coming from someone who doesn't even live in West, TN.

5A football in Knox County is pretty good.

Uh idk just taking a guess... maybe has something to do with the FACT their opposing teams record is a combined 1-7?

True but they did demolish Memphis Central 48-13 the week after Cordova barely pulled out a win 13-12 who is in the Top 10

Then there is an argument that neither Cordova or Germantown should be in. Both have unimpressive starts to the season.

There is a definitely an argument they shouldn't be in.  Germantown more so than Cordova since Cordova beat Germantown and also are 2-1 not 1-2.  Cordova's loss came against a Mississippi Power in South Panola who is ranked top 300 teams in the nation and has won 10 state championships in the last 26 years
