I Agree but I think Larimore may be picked a little high. I'd put Hazen Rugby and Velva ahead of them.

Wow kinda shocked. Not disagreeing but seeing Rugby still up there after getting stomped by Carrington surprised me. Not saying I disagree just surprised.

I would say part of the reason for Rugby still being up there is the fact they came out of the gate in week 1 with an impressive win over a team that just dropped down from AA. You can also use the "SEC argument," which is that strength of schedule is the most important aspect to rankings.

Rugby had a good quarter vs Bishop Ryan and has been stomped since then and Velva has played 2 very weak teams plus Southern Mclean who is okay and they are ranked 5th. Meanwhile Rugby is still receiving votes!!! And bishop ryan beat standing rock by a bigger margin than Velva did and played Southern Mclean same as Velva and Bishop Ryan doesn't receive any votes. I'm pretty sure they only vote by who was good last year and historically strong names like Larry Sandy's Velva club and think they deserve a top 5 spot without looking at scores, injuries etc. AA and AAA polls seems pretty accurate and see movement but the A poll is always the same no matter what from week to week it seems.
