I figured since the AP poll was a joke I would take a stab at it myself. 

 

1. Knoxville Central- #1 until they’re beat

2. Beech- another deep playoff run 

3. Powell- most impressive wins so far

4. South Doyle- two blowout wins

5. Rhea County- two comfortable wins

6. Hillsboro- uber talented

7. Shelbyville- offense good. Defense ???

8. Page- two solid wins

9. David Crockett- small body of work

10. Henry County- tough two opening opponents 

 

Just missed (in alphabetical order):

Campbell County

Fulton

Gallatin

Kirby

Knoxville West

Ridgeway

Summit

 

Let the debating began!

One of the teams I feel that should be in the top 10 is West.  I would put them over 0-2 Henry County at #10.

I definitely believe West is a Top 10 team, they look to have finally figured out their offensive problems from past years. I think the top 4 is accurate but I’d definitely have Crockett higher. Just glad my Bobcats won last week and will continue to improve.

Again, I wouldn’t put too much stock into a team not being in the top 10. West very well may be a top 10 team. Let’s let a few games sort things out. In regards to Henry Co., they’ve played two elite teams and may still go 8-2. Record is not always indicative of the strength of the team this early in the year.

How do teams with an 0-2 record get ranked?  Especially over some good teams that are 2-0, not even ranked.  Seems like these polls are inconsistent across the board.

I can’t really knock HC because I know who they have lost to.  I would dare say most of the teams in the 5A top 10 would lose to both of the teams they have played.  I had a problem with them last week because they received 2 first place votes.  I didn’t/don’t have a problem with them being ranked.  We can’t all be in the top 10.  Plus it gives those of us on the outside something else to motivate us.

It doesnt matter if Henry County is ranked or not. Sleep on us! I dare you!

I can’t understand why people get worked up over a poll that has absolutely no bearing on playoff seeding or deciding a champion. It’d be different if it did, but it doesn’t, so why worry about it? As far as 0-2 HC goes, they lost to #1 Haywood & #2 Beech. And beat Beech everywhere but the scoreboard. If Beech is #2, then there’s no way HC shouldn’t be ranked.

Tell em!!!! I'm telling y'all I'm gonna have to hold back OmahaPatriot!!! This man is preaching right now! 

[pugugly]

So let me get this straight the margin for error from #2 Beech and #8 Henry County is as thin as a missed chip shot FG on Beech’s home field? I’m not buying that. So how thin is the difference between 2 and 3. How could it be any closer?
