Understanding that the final week of the season created some movement in the LeagueLineup Prep Ranking (Harrison beating Clarkston and Lathrup losing to Southfield), I do not understand how the Troy Colts are still ranked fourth in the polling. Harrison is currently polling at number three. According to the OAA Scout power rating and the MHSAA point system the Colt's rank higher. Shouldn't they be number three? On the merit of this season's play and the numbers the Colt's should get the nod at number three.

I counted 2 more votes for Harrison from the scouts I polled this week that the Colts, it was very close. I'm sure that it was mostly based on each teams performance against a similar opponent, such as Clarkston. I can see your argument for Troy, and I had it very close. I also feel that Troy can once again impress this week with a win over a larger and more powerful program like Henry Ford vs Harrison opposition Okemos. Simply kick the Trojans butt and up up and away ~

Troy is and has been a top 5 OAA team all season, but from what I've from them I'm not so sure they would beat any other top 5 team (I haven't considered Lathrup top 5 all year)

I think they would have a great agme V Harrison
They've seen what Clarkston can do,
I think Adams would win decisivly.

They are definitely a very good and solid team with a chance of winning every week, but its hard to determine whether they should be 3, 4, or 5...

Is this Vader disquised as footballer? Who cares! All that matters is what is done on the field. It's playoff time, rankings are irrelevant.

I don't think that's the case UA... it seems to me he's a concerned Troy follower.

I have to stand by the Week 10 rankings. Don't forget... OAA Prep Rankings continue until the last OAA team finishes up so represent well... show class... play HARD!

I agree that the rankings are not a big deal, I was not suggesting that they are. I am only curious what the criteria is for evaluating teams. The MHSAA has a well established system for evaluation and the OAA Scout put together an interesting point system as well. Both of those rating systems have Troy placed ahead of Harrison. Hmmmmmmm!
