3A Preseason Conference & Class Polls

[#EagleStrong]

Let's try to create a community poll on here. I've started a preseason poll for all eight conferences and the classification overall.

IMPORTANT UPDATE:

I will use the conference part of this poll as the community Conference Preseason Poll. However, the class poll linked to above will be used to determine the 30 teams that will be made eligible for the final community Class 3A Preseason Poll. Therefore, try to rank teams 1-30 on this poll. Please continue voting here, and I will start a new thread for the final poll.

I am closing the poll for 30 class 3A candidates at the end of today, September 21. The poll will remain open for preseason conference selections.

Current 30 Teams Eligible for Preseason Poll:

Cedar Ridge
ECS
Charleston
Jessieville
Valley Springs
Marshall
Paris
Harding Academy
Manila
Drew Central
Centerpoint
Two Rivers
Flippin
Osceola

West Fork
Cossatot River
Marianna Lee

Haskell-Harmony Grove
McGehee

The poll has you rank every 3A team, but you can stop whenever you feel and submit. Try for 20-25 if at all possible.

+1

How long do I have?

[#EagleStrong]

How long do I have?

Well, I think I'm going to do another poll, taking the top 30 or do from this poll. Having every team on there creates some distortions. I'll put that one up in a day or so and make that the "official unofficial" Fearless Friday Poll. So if you want to do a quick and dirty ranking, then a more studied one when I put the second poll up, that's fine.

[#EagleStrong]

1.Cedar Ridge Timberwolves
2.Episcopal Collegiate Wildcats

[TheOfficial]

Bergman boys are no where near a top 30 team

[#EagleStrong]

Bergman boys are no where near a top 30 team

Yeah, like I said, there are some distortions. Try to rank these through 30 as best as you can, even if it's regionally biased.
