Hey Charleston broke the top 10! 😂😂

[neds]

It's interesting how big their pt spread is between no. 1&2 vs the rest of the top 10

[WPWells]

I'll see what I can do about reporting some Charleston scores

[HorseFeathers]

Hey somebody is figuring it out ...Kinda surprised that no one for Charleston already does that, since they have a link to their football stats on maxpreps on the School Site.

[neds]

Actually my comment was related to the 'rating number' that MaxPreps assigns teams. The rating they are giving to the top two teams is miles apart from the rest of the top 10. I guess I understand that based on strength of schedule for ECS , but I don't understand the algorithm that gets Cedar Ridge that high a rating number.
Again , just another poll.

Maybe they use a lot of "History/Tradition" in their ratings, with no weighting for classification?

[WPWells]

Hmmm I just looked and it seems they have all of Charleston's games...several close losses to 7A schools and only one bad loss against Scranton apparently isn't good enough for them

[Longfellow]

I'm not sure I'm sold on lamar as top 15. One of the top players in the conference, but this team lives and dies by McCarleys scoring and playmaking. In both games I have seen, he got in foul trouble early and when he went out, the offense self-destructed.

[yellowjackethooper]

My uninformed Top 10
1. ECS
2. Charleston
3. Cedar Ridge
4. Flippin
5. Rivercrest
6. Paris
7. BHG
8. McGhee
9. Valley
10. Prescott
Receiving Votes: Marshall, Lamar, Cossatot, Mayflower

[Jimbo Morphis]

mcgehee is stil undefeated. they beat fordyce 61-55 last night. mcgehee is small  and very quick. they will have to block out better inside to make it back to state.

[WPWells]

Two Rivers probably at least deserves to be mentioned

[bobcats]

Can we finally get BHG off the top 10 list.  They lost again last night.  They look to only be the 4th or 5th best team in their conference.

[neds]

Who did they lose to?

[smallybells]

Who did they lose to?

Jessiieville

[bobcats]

Unless I am mistaken, the only conference team they have beaten is Glen Rose.

[BigMan15]

How does everyone feel about mayflower with the addition of perry..

[WPWells]

Waiting to see what that WHOLE situation is

[neds]

Who did they lose to?

Jessiieville

Thanks.  Jessieville will continue to improve as the season goes. Always well coached.

[jr17]

If perry is for real back and playing. Mayflower Is a different team entirely. I would say top 5, with confidence. Go Eagles!

[BigMan15]

I think so too but we will have to wait and see what happens

[arkhoops94]

I think so too but we will have to wait and see what happens

Perry went to school at Mayflower today. They are definitely top 5 with perry in my opinion.

[cdelaney]

Perry went to school at Mayflower today. They are definitely top 5 with perry in my opinion.

I'd give it a week or two before I went that far, but definitely an upgrade

[neds]

Besides moving Charleston up to three and pushing everyone else down the only other thing I might change of this poll above is taking Valley out and putting in Rivercrest

[WPWells]

I might put Paris #5 as well

[jr17]

Mayflower plays jville tomorrow.

[neds]

Mayflower plays jville tomorrow.

That may decide #2 seed for conf tournament

[jr17]

I'm saying mayflower by 10 in perry's first game back.

[neds]

Where is the game?
I think Jessieville is one of the toughest places to play , actually Garland county is very tough in 3A

[jr17]

It is at jessieville

[owl84]

McGehee 58
Smackover 54

Final

[doubled]

Did mayflower win?

[neds]

Did mayflower win?

They did not. Jessieville beat them at home by 8 or so on Fri.

[think]

I think it was 62-59 Jessieville.

[neds]

That is the correct score 'think' , thanks

[think]

Anytime...

[Sportsgirl]

Well  I think Daley from jessieville should be on the list. The kid has had a good season thus far.Truly a kid to watch

[neds]

Very much should be in the mix

[bobcats]

big man 15 i think i would have put rivercrest in the top 15.they played well against cedar ridge and they also beat osceola at osceola.just my thoughts

i knew i forgot someone i qoupd have them around 7-8 and move everyone else back..

RiverCrest beat Osc by 16 @ Osc and lost by 3 to CR. Also Osceola has lost their 6'7" starter from last season and a 6'1" SG that was a key player on the team...

Good point. With the additional L's BHG probably drops out of #10 spot

[bb1996]

After Centerpoint goes to Cossatot and beats them for the second time there is no way they are worthy of top 10.......
