GRR: Rankings
So this is fun ...
Most of the D1A rankings remains unchanged. We have a new #25 and that's about it, but we spent a lot of time pondering two teams, both of which lost of the weekend: Mount St. Mary's and Army.
Massive changes hit the HS Club Top 50, and that's partly due to results and partly do to us making mistakes.
... Or at least overlooking stuff.
An interesting phenomenon showed itself this week.
Usually, when we're asked the question as to whether the HS Clubs or Single-School teams are stronger, our answer is this: at the top, they are fairly close, but the club top list is probably a bit longer, the medium-ranked school list is a bit longer, but then there's a sharp drop.
Spoiler alert - not much changes here.
Let's talk playoffs. The rankings aren't related to playoffs ... the seedings in D1AA aren't influenced by GRR's rankings, while D1A is, slightly.
But we get to use the rankings to look at the playoffs.
Here's what's going to happen:
What do you fans think?
Should St. Francis be #1? It isn't a for-sure thing that the All-California winner would be the #1. But after all of the results we've seen, and the results we've seen nationally, and with St. Francis beating De La Salle and Torrey Pines. and Jesuit Sacramento, this is the time to move such a team to #1.
