Well, let’s see, here. So far this season, Milan’s opponents (that they have played thus far) are a collective 7-17 on the year. 
 

Over the past decade, they have been to the ‘ship just once and Alcoa slammed ‘em pretty hard. Other than that, Milan has played weak teams in weak brackets until they finally play decent opponents around the third round. Then they get beat. Have to give it to Milan, they do make it further in the playoffs than Hohenwald traditionally did.

If Sharp wasn’t able to get Columbia’s schedule “fixed” in just one year, I doubt, as an assistant, he can do it there. But, then again, looks like Milan doesn’t need help in that department. If they ever do, I’m sure he can pull some strings.

You know what, I'm usually not automatically on board with the highest rated team in the previous season being #1 "until someone beats them". I stand on the thinking that the teams be rated by who I think they beat, or who beats them if everybody in the poll played everybody else... but both ways of thinking point to what you said. Riverside's only loss came at the hands of the largest school in Tn., and in no way should be viewed as a negative. Arguments can be made that any of the other top nine could beat the Panthers on any given night, but nobody should argue that Riverside's play on the field has dropped them out of the #1 spot.

I'm with you!!

How can we even trust the AP on this vote when they can't even collectively get everyone's records right?

These polls are good for nothing but giving folks something to talk about during the week

Totally agree, it’s clear that some of the voters don’t even watch the games

I get what you’re saying, but the AP poll shouldn’t be looked at as a joke if these voters would put a tiny bit of effort behind the process they use. If there is even a process some use lol
