Fairley is a paper bulldog. They dodged the only competition they had on their schedule. Their Opponents have a combined record of 17-26. Huntingdon opponents have a combined record of 34-13. However the TSSAA has allowed them or Mitchell a cake walk to the semis. Region 6 has 4 teams in the top 8.

This doesn’t even make sense JCM 5 spots behind milan. They have the same record and beat them by 2 scores.

SP stomps someone and drops out of the polls.  Have a bye week and move in 10th.

Garden variety incompetence we are working with here. These poll writers don’t know Jack from Jill

Luckily, polls in high school are just for us, the fans. It gives us something to brag or gripe about. The playoffs determine who is really deserving or not.

You are absolutely right but you would think they would at least want us to believe that they know what they are doing

Huntingdon has beaten the #2 team in 2A two weeks in a row and still 6

And the week before that they got drilled by the number 2 team.

[Southtowner]

I think the polls look fine.

I see a lot of parity.

Things are fixing to shake loose.

LOL, good point. Unfortunately, most writers mostly know about the teams in their coverage area but not much about teams outside of that area. That's why tradition rich programs show up even when they aren't doing so hot.
