Remove Trousdale from the list.  Insert Westmoreland in your top 8.  Also East Robertson is a dangerous team, loaded with athletes.  Don't let the loss to Macon fool ya.  Macon will win 7 or 8 games this year in 4A.  Your Top 4 are spot on!!!

I had Westmoreland in there but forgot Westview and forgot to put them back in lol. Put it together in about 2 minutes and it shows  I'd put Westmoreland at 7.5

12) Meigs

Just a best guess right now. Number 1 and 2 could represent the East and West.

Think I'd put Riverside somewhere in my top 10.

Its away to hard to pick this early in the season and easy to forget someone.  After 5 or 6 weeks, things should clear up a little. An injury here or there can also change things in a hurry.

Don't know about any of these other teams but Marion isn't #3. They could be top 10 by the end of the season but no way they're #3. This is a joke poll.

I love these teams that give themselves the only #1 vote received.  Hampton, Marion, Tyner, and Riverside, take a friggin bow.  

Huh???

Riverside has its chance to prove itself in week 4 when the Panthers come to Huntingdon. If they handle the Mustangs then you can start to say they are the real deal. Beating the Mustangs is something that Riverside has always had a tough time doing.

Theyve already proven themselves.  I stated their case. No one in 2A has their resume the last 3 years besides Meigs, Peabody, and Westview.

Meigs top poster @Yeti says Meigs isn't even a top 4 team currently.

Peabody is 1A and has lost already.

Westview is gonna lose 3 games minimum this year.

Marion is not a top ten team. Week 3 and 6 will let you know about them

Riverside can make a case for #1. Think about it. They have been to the semis 2x in the last 3 years, and got to quarters the other. Lost to Peabody and Westview in semis, who are both either dropped out of the top 10, or gone.

Only Meigs (2 state title appearances, out in 2nd round last year) and Hampton (out in 2nd round 2019, 2020, state title appearance last year) have done more the last 3 years. 

Riverside also lost to the eventual state champ the two times they made it to semis, and in last year's case, gave Westview a better game. They also had a 14-0 lead on Peabody in 2019 if I'm not mistaken.

I hate what happened in 2019 to Forrest, but Riverside deserves respect. 

Riverside wasn’t good in 2019. Riverside wasn’t good in 2020. I’m not sure what they have this year.  They scored on a pick 6 and a trick play in 2019 and then got dominated. 2020 they got beat by waverly 3rd round which wasn’t good. The competition isnt as good in that area

A little better pole. 

Few notes.

Union City very impressive win over Lake County

Tyner impressive win and favored to win the East due to players returning

Westview lost first game to an Improved Dresden team? Repeat? Doubtful

Trousdale even before they have it together normally never loses by mercy rule.

Meigs won a close game against 3A Sweetwater. Is Sweetwater up and or  is Meigs down?

Forrest scores 55 . Unheard of. What are they hiding over there.

Hampton wins a close game against a quality opponent. 

East Robertson returns alot and is athlete loaded? Ready for a run? We will see

Westmoreland most improved team of the region 

Huntingdon loses first game against a quality opponent? Are they as good as last year?

Riverside could be the Dark Horse of the West. Can they take it one more step?

Oneida lost a game against a Kentucky powerhouse from what I understand. How good are they? Can they get past Rockwood?

Marion with an impressive win

We would be lucky to be in a top 10 pole right now. Just too young.
