Friday Main Event 2021 preseason Top Fifteen!

[FridayMainEvent]

I've put out a preliminary top 15 in each class to generate some discussion.   The new classifications has made it especially hard this year!  We'll be "adjusting" these positions over the next couple of months as spring camps begin and we have more data to judge teams with:

In 4A I think you should swap Haywood and GreenEville. I think you should swap Anderson Co. and East Hamilton. I think you should take out Kirby and insert Ridgeway. Also South Gibson and Hardin Co have to be considered somewhere. Maybe in place of Upperman and Carter. Just my two cents. Good work though brother.

What about Fulton and Creekwood???  That's the problem with this class.  About 20 quality teams that on any other season would be worthy of top ten status!  

 

Whoever wins this class may be in conversation with Oakland,  Maryville,  and Alcoa as the best in the State.

Dyersburg at 2 in 3A? Not sure about that. They very well could be I guess but I would say they are going to be 2 or 3 in their region not the state.

With everything Oakland returns I'll bet they run through their schedule even worse than 2020

That could be a reach, but they've got a ton of kids back including many of their lineman.

They drop down from 4A and that side of the bracket isn't as strong this year with some power teams like Milan moving up.   

It's gonna be an interesting post season in 3A on the West side of the state this year.

You are correct. Lots of quality teams since the reclassification. However I think Oakland will be the class of the state but the winner of this class will be in the conversation with the rest for next best. 4A is definitely stacked now.

I could see that I guess with the return of starters. I just think the West until someone other than Covid proves otherwise runs through Covington. Kirby and his bunch seem to reload every year. But at the same time, I am not sure how Covington looks on paper at this moment after graduation. No arguments with the number 1 team haha.
