I would have Allen in the 10 spot and Trinity about 11 or 12.

Trinity has lost to 2 top 5 teams, and handled an impressive Bingham team.
I'd have them at 10 at the highest, though.
Allen is too highly ranked, IMO. I need more good games before I see them top 5 again, nothing has impressed me about their play. Close game to Longview, then they nearly coughed it up against Mexico Tech and only 38-10 over a 4A Rockwall??? I have them around Katy.
I agree with moving SLC to 2, and if they handle NS like I think they will, they have a strong case for #1.
Madison should be higher, or at least stop being bumped down for other teams. It seems like they're last to get put in and are just put where there's a slot for them...
Lufkin should be higher or Allen should be lower or both.

Im not so worried about where Madison is right now..we have yet to fire on offense this year...yes we beat Johnso big but did not look impressive in doing so...we did beat a good New Braunfels team and that was good..the one thing this season that Madison can be proud of is the defense has only given up one Touchdown all season..the defense is legit my friend..fast and can hit.

I was there, and that team had the tools to beat most Texas teams.
Would they win state here? no.
But they would go deep in the playoffs.

I watched the game myself as well and they strugled against a Trinity team who then lost their next 2 games on their own home field. They would be a middle of the pack team here in Texas.

In all seriousness, if they played 4 games against one another, I'd put my money on SA Madison to beat Lufkin in at least 3 of those and not surprised if they won all four, so I disagree, w/ the assumption that Longview could beat Madison... Madison is too big and fast on both sides of the ball for Longview to deal with... Longview like Katy was way overrated this year and don't say, what about Allen??? Because Allen is not the Allen from last season. Nor is Euless Trinity... they both are seriously overrated at present in this poll.

Madison wouldn't have that problem if they'd play someone from outside of San Antonio. I know that's not always in the control of a program, but that's what makes some teams hard to slot in the rankings. If Abilene hadn't just played Tyler Lee, we wouldn't have a great read on them either.
Talent wise, I know Madison has a strong class but we won't know exactly how that stacks up until the state semis (if they get there). I can't see them not getting there with the talent they have.

I don't think Madison would know what to do against Lufkin. They don't see anyone in San Antonio, aside from Roosevelt now that Judson's not in 265, with comparable talent.
I'd pick Lufkin without much hesitation if they played tomorrow.

That would be a loss to the #1 and #2 ranked teams at the time they played...
Based on Trinity staying ranked in the top 10 after two top 5 teams
beating them.

You're just a Katy homer.......you are biased towards the Houston area....you have no respect for SA Madison because you are from Houston and went to Katy....Dave Campbell didnt go to Katy and he has Madison at #3....so it's OBVIOUS the reason you DON'T have Madison ranked higher....is because you are from Katy.:rolleyes:

Allen and ET should definitely be dropped from the top 10. While JT and Lufkin should move up. Lufkin and Allen have the same record but Allen lost to a team that Lufkin beat. ET then lost to Allen plus has more losses than Lufkin. Don't see how they can be ranked ahead of Lufkin....just my opinion.

This is what I've been saying all season. Come through 265a undefeated and the polls will reflect it. It's not that I don't think Madison can beat some of the teams in the top 10 right now. I just think that no one can judge how well we'd do against those teams without us going around the state to play some of the higher tier playoff teams.
Even if we did, it would be no indication - win or lose- of how we'd play those teams come playoff time.
All that being said, there is no way RRSP deserves the #1 slot. Beating 4a teams in pre-district play does not warrant a #1 ranking no matter how well they did against them. For the same logic that keeps Madison out of the top 10, Stony Point should not get in without hesitation for beating teams that do not reflect how well they would do come playoff time.

Northshore barely beating a 4A team? I don't care how good y'all say the 4A team is if Northshore is to be ranked as high as they are then they need to show it.
Hightower will never advance much higher because our coach is a class act and does feel that he needs to run the score up on a team and completely humiliate them. Hightower will make their mark in the playoffs again.

That is certainly debatable. The rankings are playing themselves out.
What I would submit is that you have to look into the results a little deeper. Allen played Longview on the road in the first game of the year. DFW teams usually do not make trips like that. We gave Allen credit for playing a tough game. Lufkin, and just about every other 5A team in our estimation, would not be immune to a loss at Lobo this year.
Lufkin is no stranger to East Texas football, and Longview in particular, so there was a built-in advantage in the match-up that Allen did not have (in addition to the fact Allen played away from home).
Trinity's losses were close games against two top opponents. There aren't many teams in the state this year (if any) that would come out of those two games with anything to show for it.

Hightower fans are not upset, just make way when the playoffs start. The only difference between this year and last year is a storm. I said this after week two that we would not be back in the top 10 until week 7 or 8. Keep them falling and under the radar.

Schedules are important, but I think they are often overblown in the discussion here. I've also given football reasons for Madison's ranking aside from the fact they don't get out of the area in non-district or the playoffs.
What about Stony Point's team does not make them worthy of being highly ranked in your opinion? It's certainly worth remembering this is a program that was very close to playing for state last year. We don't think they were just a flash in the pan.

Agreed. Stony Point is not flash in the pan. But we can debate close to playing for state with closer to playing for state all we want. I have no doubts that Stony Point will be a strong team this year and rumble undefeated through district. However, facing Georgetown, Leander, and Cedar Park doesn't give a clear picture of how RRSP will do in the playoffs either.
What I'm saying is that, by that logic, RRSP doesn't deserve the #1 spot in the state. At least give it to Chill who has proved themselves by playing constant contenders.
I'm curious what the "football reasons" are that you mentioned. Is it athletes? Strength of schedule? Coaching? Or is is past performance? I'll admit with the teams we play, limited to our area, Madison is difficult to rank. BUT, so are some of the other teams in the top 10.
BTW, I think Madison being ranked 15th is just about right.

Go back and read before you start throwing around names. Never once did I say that Madison could beat Stony Point or any of the teams in the top 25. Frankly, I never said Madison could beat anyone in 5a. Just arguing the points of the ranking system.

Cedar Hill was getting all this credit for a case of the #1 spot after beating Trinity at Trinity. Then SLC beats an 0-4 team by 30 points and Cedar Hill gives up points on special teams and one interceptionto a 2-2 team, this merits a drop to #3? Bad games happen against scrappy teams, which is what Martin is, scrappy...what happened to the tough schedule talk? We still got the W so i don't see why we should move down...mainly i don't like SLC ranked ahead of us when we both win, especially when we played a tougher opponent.

Go back and read before you start throwing around names. Never once did I say that Madison could beat Stony Point or any of the teams in the top 25. Frankly, I never said Madison could beat anyone in 5a. Just arguing the points of the ranking system.
I'm terribly, terribly sorry. I quoted the wrong person.

Trinity has lost to 2 top 5 teams, and handled an impressive Bingham team.
I'd have them at 10 at the highest, though.
Allen is too highly ranked, IMO. I need more good games before I see them top 5 again, nothing has impressed me about their play. Close game to Longview, then they nearly coughed it up against Mexico Tech and only 38-10 over a 4A Rockwall??? I have them around Katy.
I agree with moving SLC to 2, and if they handle NS like I think they will, they have a strong case for #1.
Madison should be higher, or at least stop being bumped down for other teams. It seems like they're last to get put in and are just put where there's a slot for them...
Lufkin should be higher or Allen should be lower or both.I really think it depends on how good Allen is. Trinity could easily have beaten Allen. However, Cedar Hill is a different animal. Allen andTrinity may well meet again. That game will be a tossup. But again, how good is Allen?

I want to know how Coppell blows out a team and drops one postion? Sirously? Kind of agree with you here. Apparently their not impressed with your opponents. Being in 6-5A however, will find out soon enough how good Coppell is. Being a Trinity fan, looking forward to a possible matchup with you in week one or three of the playoffs.

Trinity has lost to two teams that were ranked ahead of them. Does that mean that they are not better than the teams below them? I think Trinity needs to be out of the top 10 based on the two losses. How far depends on where there are teams that would not beat them are. They would be tops in Utah, but here in Texas at this point in the season they are 12 or 13 at best at this moment in time. A lot of season left to improve.

I know many of you don't look at much beyond your own team (there is nothing at all wrong with that by the way); however, when looking at the weekly movement in the rankings, you can't look at every team in a vacuum. It's not that Coppell "fell" because of their blowout win. They dropped a spot due to Lufkin rising from #20 to #12 with their impressive win over Longview. Similar shifting in the rankings happens every week. It's not because we "hate" your team or that we're unfairly biased towards someone else. By now, we've been accused of hating just about everyone, so I guess you can take solace in the fact that you're not alone. We hate everyone. :D

I fully expect Madison to be well entrenched in the Top 10 by the end of the regular season. The reason they, Hightower, Cove, and Abilene are getting 'hurt' in these early polls is that they haven't played terribly challenging schedules thus far, making it very hard to compare their results against teams around them (in the polls) who are going toe-to-toe with, even beating, other highly regarded teams.
It will all work itself out as the season goes and we have more results to work with. Hell, we could be way, way, way off right now...who knows? To be honest, outside of Stony Point and Carroll, everyone through the rest of the Top 25 looks to be pretty darn equal thus far. Some teams, like Madison, seem to have higher ceilings, but our rankings, right now, are a combination of what we thought going into the year and what little we have been able to observe thus far.
We argue pretty vehemently between the three of us on the placement of every team within the rankings each week and the final product is more of a compromise than a consensus. We try to arrive at something that makes sense as a whole and we try to make sure that we have a justification why every team is placed where they are. It surely isn't perfect, but it's...something. :Music

They are guys from other sites texting and emailing ME for information and calling in "Inside" information and charging people a fee for it, yet they seem "More credible" There are maybe 100 undefeated teams in the state, ALL of them can't be in the top 25 and ALL of them can't be #1....it's normal for everyone to build up their team and try to knock many as possible to make their team look good. If you walked into a maternity ward right now and yelled "I'm looking for the cutest baby in here".....do you actually think ONE mom willl say "Not MY baby, he/she dosn't deserve it"....

How you know when you are taking the Rankings toooo serious.
1) Wake up at 4:00 on Monday mornings just to see where your team is ranked.
2) Get suspended from work (if employed) for spending too much time on internet (discussing why your team dropped in top 25).
3) Get kicked out of house by wife (If unemployed) for spending too much time on internet (discussing how Katy Contols 5A Texas Football) instead of looking for a job.
4) You Think DaDa, KT2000, and JC84Chill etc... are left wing, tea sipping communist, from Bug Tussel, Texas who are out to take over Texas football.
5) You start a petition signed by all 5772 (2632 attend the school) residents of your community stating that your team is better than Trinity, Lufkin, Cedar Hill, Katy, RRSP, NS and Allen put together even though their record is 2-1.
6) Finally, Your team is kicked out of the playoffs in round one and we never hear from you again until August 2010.
Remedy, drink 6 beers, take two pain killers, pinch wife on butt, and play Buckin Bronco for 8.5 seconds. Call Phonix_612 in the morning.

Cedar Hill was getting all this credit for a case of the #1 spot after beating Trinity at Trinity. Then SLC beats an 0-4 team by 30 points and Cedar Hill gives up points on special teams and one interceptionto a 2-2 team, this merits a drop to #3? Bad games happen against scrappy teams, which is what Martin is, scrappy...what happened to the tough schedule talk? We still got the W so i don't see why we should move down...mainly i don't like SLC ranked ahead of us when we both win, especially when we played a tougher opponent.

We still got the W so i don't see why we should move down...mainly i don't like SLC ranked ahead of us when we both win, especially when we played a tougher opponent.
Make Cedar Hill #1 beside #1 SA Madison, sounds good to me. By the way, have you seen a Southlake game? I have seen two Cedar Hill games.
Looking at this weeks poll, as well as others, just begs a question. In no means is this against any team. But when a poll puts a 1-2 team ahead of 4-0 and 3-0 teams does this mean the people doing the poll believe the 1-2 team would bet those others? I know who they have played and other factors come into it, but this is what it says to me? Am I correct?
Thanks for your thoughts on this?.

Basically, but good cases can be made for both sides when talking about teams of close proximity in the rankings. But, yes, that's basically what that tells you.

Sorry, I have not been impressed enough to catch a game. Mesq 0-4 we will see how it goes the next couple of weeks. When you play some ranked teams. The best of luck!http://forums.5atexasfootball.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Well, to be perfectly honest, Arlington was ranked until we smacked them around, at their house.:)

Then why is oklahoma ranked 10th in the nation? they are better then half the top ten teams...when you lose regardless of to who you drop in the polls...thats the name of the game...now how far you drop depends on the level of team you play...Trinity has no buisness being in the top 20 right now..come to think of it...1-2 records warrants that...they will be there by the end of the season...

The BCS is clearly the gold standard for polling practices.

I just wanted to discuss a comparison with someone who had seen both. Sorry you haven't been impressed, that of course is the goal of the Carroll Dragons, to impress you. :rolleyes:
To be serious, CHILL has proven they have what it takes to be #1 by winning against their schedule. I don't know much about RRSP right now, haven't seen any games, but realistically I would put CHILL and RRSP probably #1 and #2, you pick the order, with SLC somewhere below.
Cedar Hill has both a strength and a weakness. The weakness is they can get behind BIG against teams, we have seen it numerous times in this and last season. The strength is, they can come back from being down like that. Eventually though, that will get you. You have to go out and 'kill the will'. I saw the team and Coach on the Sunday High special. Was very impressed with all of them, and with what they were saying. He is an excellent coach and with that talent, you are the real deal.
SLC has done everything it could with the teams it has played. As pointed out, Arlington was supposed to be a top 10 DFW team and we toasted them. I still think this upcoming game is a telling one. If we win and win convincingly, we are most assuredly in the race for the #1 ranking.
But seriously, I don't care if we are or aren't. I just want us to keep winning and win the 16th one. Perhaps our two teams will meet again in the playoffs. That would be a great game. I look forward to us beating you. ;)

Easy killer! don't lump us in with the SA Madison hooligans! I was just wanting some dialogue...no disrespect to SLC, they have done their job and are deservedly ranked in the top 5 every week this year, I just feel RRSP has done their job, CHill has done their job, and SLC have done their job so why move them if that is the basis for being dethroned (not doing your job meaning the W)? I have seen a SL game (Arlington) and SL was very impressive against, IMO, an over ranked Arlington High team. Nonetheless y'all spanked them and Tommy Avers is the real deal, it helps when you guys have the pass attack as usual too. Very deadly combo. Perhaps we will see a repeat match-up this year in the playoffs with CHill vs. SLC??? we could be ranked 1-2 in either order come then...

Until Euless Trinity beats somebody in the top 10 they shouldn't be ranked in the top 10 .
Amen! :)

You got punked and nothing else matters...you stuck your foot in your mouth like you usually do...you posted crap like you usually do..somebody called you out and you got toasted....THE BCS POLL THING WAS CLASSIC. Phoenix and pedro for president i say....if you need your milk money back just ask...i am sure i can loan you some.
All right, kids. Calm down. I prefer it when you bash the rankings. I'm a man. I can handle it even though I'm not 40.
