The biggest difference is how Drew44 and Searn treats 3 and 4 loss teams. I guess that Searn hasn't come to grips with a 4 loss D1 team being better than
an undefeated D1 team, which hasn't happened yet despite whatever Drew44 posts. Sooner or later though it will probably happen, but in ratings we still
would have to rate the undefeated teams higher than a 4 loss team. The 3 loss teams still lose by 6 times the rate that they defeat an undefeated D1 opponent.
So the undefeated teams should be ranked over the 3 loss teams. It's probably way, way different for the 1 and 2 loss teams most likely and I'll do
those stats probably after the playoffs are over, but they should still win more frequently than those with more losses.

Surprised you have Livonia Stevenson and Canton that far apart. I know i sound like a homer when i say this but this is a totally different team now than in
week 1 and 2 when they lost. After winning 5 in a row, i must say i was a bit hesitant to say much because they didn't played much tough competition, but
after watching what they did at canton this weekend i will say that they are a very good team, but not a great team just yet. We'll see what happens the
rest of the way but i wouldn't be surprised if they make noise during the playoffs.

I'm an extreme homer here, but couldn't help but notice that you have FOUR OK Red teams in your super 32... with all the 3 loss teams in your poll, im
surprised the Caledonia is getting over-looked... Caledonia missed a last second field goal to beat East Kentwood, and eventually losing in OT, and darn near
put a running clock on Jenision. Both of those schools have been hanging tough with any other OK Red school... does that not get some looks for Caledonia at
6-2? I'm not expecting an answer, as you have your reasons for your poll, and it's really none of my business. I just want to throw it out there, that
I think Cal could make a strong statement in the D2 playoffs this year. Im thinking this is the year the Fightin Scots finally get one from Lowell...

But ill say this....Im amazed at what Austin has done this year...He put the team on his back and has carried them...He has showed a lot as far as maturity, dedication, and leadership this year...Good for him..And good luck to Stevenson in the playoffs |

I was looking at how D2 is going to shake out on the West side, as there aren't too many teams from this area. AuldSchool projects Muskegon, Caledonia, Lowell, Kenowa Hills, and Northview, along with both Portage schools, and OH being on the edge of 2/3. Not sure if Cali would go south with Portage(s), and who the other school to go with these 7 would be. Assuming they all make it, that is.

I like Caledonia .... they are right there with a group of very good 1-3 loss teams that have yet to win a really big game this year.
By really big, I mean a victory against a Super 32 type team. ... obviously they will get a chance to prove themselves come playoff time. |

Over the long haul this year Canton has been much better than Stevenson .... I'm being a little cautious and seeing whether Stevenson just played a great
game vs. Canton or if they are finally the team that I thought they would be when I ranked them Top 5 going into the year.

The thing about Stevenson is that they are a top 5 team when White plays as good as he did last week. At the begging of the year the o-line had some major
problems with controling the line, but they've looked alot better as the season progressed. I still think Canton is a top tier team that deserves to be
ranked higher than Stevenson, but i would have them closer together.
