Goff Rankings
Some significant changes in the HS Top 50 despite the fact that many teams are yet to take the field.
Most of the Florida teams are bunched together because the results basically keep them close ... for now. Boca vs Tampa this weekend tells us a lot.
Some teams are poised to make a move to challenge #1. Playoffs are coming.
Meanwhile, new teams St. Thomas and American River make moves. San Jose State isn't a new team, but they are making a move too. their win over Chico State was a good one.
As we moved around the ranked teams we had to put Los Alamitos higher.
Remember that Los Al's ranking was in the 20s because their top result was a close loss, and good wins over some other teams we weren't sure should be ranked.
So they were waiting for that big victory ... which they got.
Should we have moved BYU to #1?
It's a very legitimate question, and maybe if we didn't have a bunch of other big games coming up for various teams we might have. But of course BYU did lose to Lindenwood. So the net question is ...
Should we have moved Lindenwood to #1?
We do have a couple of new teams in our Top 40.
San Jose State is battling in a very tough California Conference and with a 27-26 win over Stanford they bump themselves in. Stanford, for their part, are right on the cusp.
