My guess it that Highlands will be ranked 4th in USA Today and sadly will probably still end up 2nd in Kentucky in the Litkenhous ratings.:lol:

Does LIT do a final year-end rankings? I don't believe Cantrall makes one for the Herald-Leader.

 

I'll take a 4th in the USA Today along with a 2nd in LIT any day!!!!

 

BTW, the weekly USA Today Super 25 rankings came out today and indeed HHS is ranked 4th.

2002 Trinity, 15-0 with a 44-20 win over eventual Ohio champion Elder ended up #4 in the nation after their win over Male in the title game.

 

Seems like 4 is the best KY folks can get lately.

Well, as I recall Trinity finished 4th in the FINAL USA Today poll that year. If you take a close look at the current USA Today rankings list, there are some teams just behind HHS in the rankings that are close to winning state titles in major football states (like Texas). I sure hope HHS can keep ahold of their current 4th position, but I have a feeling that may not be their final position.
