tennesseeannouncer Posted October 16, 2023 Report Share Posted October 16, 2023 Solid list, BPM. And I totally agree with your assessment. At the end of the day, this is a fan poll and a pretty good one at that. BPM knows his football, does his research, and makes his case for his list. If folks don't like the list feel free to make a point while being courteous. Don't take life so personally. And for the record, I believe that Huntingdon would slaughter McKenzie if they played this Friday night based on the following: -They played on Week 1. The goal is to improve as the season progresses. What happened on August 18th is totally irrelevant to this conversation on October 16th. -McKenzie has played the 36th toughest schedule in 1A to this point and has played 3 Top 25 teams -Huntingdon has played the 10th toughest schedule in 2A and has played 6 Top 25 teams - 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stacmot Posted October 17, 2023 Report Share Posted October 17, 2023 6 hours ago, Tigersandcats said: Think I heard someone say they only start a couple seniors. May have heard that wrong though. If that’s so , then that explains a lot to me. I think I might have been the first to mention that Haywood is only starting 2 seniors. I may be wrong about that, but I’ve heard the Haywood sportscasters say that numerous times this year. I figure they should know. @BIGPURPLEMACHINE I agree that your rankings are solid. Thanks for doing your weekly poll. I look forward to it every week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Informative and comical at the same time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHARGERFAN Posted October 18, 2023 Report Share Posted October 18, 2023 (edited) Well, I guess I’m just an old retired guy with too much time on his hands. I decided to scan through the Max—Prep website rankings, looking for how they placed these schools. You will be surprised at who they have at #10. 1. Henry County 2. Hardin County 3.JCS 4. Dyersburg 5. Huntingdon 6. Dresden 7. Munford 8. Riverside 9. Haywood 10. Milan The next two are Covington, followed by McKenzie. I really don’t care how they get ranked, because the playoffs decide everything I’m interested in. Still, I thought I’d provide a second opinion ( albeit from a trusted source).

Close to BPM’s , just in a different order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Munford 7-2 L 15-28 to Lausanne Outside Looking In: Covington 6-2, Milan 7-1, TCA 6-2, South Gibson 6-2, Union City 5-3, USJ 5-3 Lots of byes last week so not much movement Munford losses but stays in the poll cause they lost to a really good team. Are these the best 10 teams in West TN? Yes Munford lost to a team that beat Mase 42 to 6.So Dresden.McKenzie should have an easy time against Mase being ranked above Munford.But oh.Its all about wins.
