Keep in mind that these rankings and my ballot were prior to this week's games.

1. Dixie

2. Boone Co

3. Holmes

4. Scott

5. NewCath

6. CovCath

7. Campbell Co

8. Holy Cross

9. Ryle

10. Simon Kenton

 

I realize this causes a lot of debate. The first comment I will see is how do I rank Holmes above NewCath or Scott over Holy Cross? All I can say is that at the time I posted the ballot, there were about 15 teams that deserved consideration of a ranking and I looked primarily at the results of those 15 teams against each other, their records in those games, and where the games were played. If I had to stop and analyze everyone's schedule as a whole, I would never get a ballot done, so it is what it is.

I think the Coaches poll looks fairly accurate but I might lean toward the following:

 

1. Dixie Heights

2. Holmes

3. Scott

4. Boone Co

5. Newcath

6. Covcath

7. Campbell Co

8. Holy Cross

9. Ryle

10. Conner

 

My rankings are based on who I think would beat who if the games were played against eachother today..

Almost agree 100% with your poll. Only change I would make is to put Campbell County in and put Conner out.
