How's everyone see 1a shaping up thru the 1st 3 weeks...Let's hear what everyone's Top 10 would be...Here's mine:

 

1) Beechwood - IMO, the Tigers have played up to expectations thus far and maybe even slightly better...

2) Raceland - A high-octane team that plays solid defense, too. The Ashland win looks better now than earlier thought...

3) Hazard - Played a very solid Green Co team to the wire. Can't take too many points away for that. Has been impressive otherwise and alot of returning players from a very good 07 team...

4) LCA - Offensively, they've been as good as anyone, but, they've got to shore up the defense to move higher...

5) Frankfort - Even with alot of quality losses from last years squad, have been winning impressively and still possess alot of team speed that'll give there opponents fits...

6) Mayfield - Hasn't played up to potential yet, but, still has the talent and speed to stay ahead of the rest of the field. Look for better things in Cardinal country these next few weeks...

7) Holy Cross - Clearly D2s top team and seem to be improving each week...

8) Bellevue - One of the best RB tandems in 1a. If can get just a semblence of a passing game to open up the defense, have potential to be higher...

9) Campbellsville - Talent wise, they should be higher, but, still wouldn't fall out of Top 10, despite a couple of less than stellar performances...

10) Williamsburg - Played Frankfort tough and has a solid passing game capable of putting up alot of points...

 

That's how I see it, what say you....

Just 4 fun, I don't think you are far off. I would say there are arguments for the top four in any order and I probably would not argue with the top four in any order.

 

Your list looks good though.

I have no argument. Those teams seem to be playing at a level to warrant recognition. Can't wait for the playoffs to see who are the pretenders and who are real.

Hazard lost their first game and they stay in the top 5?

They lost to a Top 5 2a team in a close game..No disgrace there..

^Where were they ranked at the start of the season? What happends if the lost to another top 5 higher class you still dont take anything from that?JMO.

I believe Green Co was ranked in the Top 5 at the time they beat Hazard..As far as losing to another Top team in a bigger class, I guess it would depend on if they played competitively or played poorly...Hey, this is an opinion poll...If you disagree, let's hear what you think it should like...Noone asked you to agree with mine...
