1. Norwell
Week 6: 45-0 win over East Noble
Previous Ranking: #1
Week 7: vs Dekalb
Another week, another blowout by the Knights. We mentioned that Norwell can throw the ball. They decided to grace us with that this week. Is this a state title contender?
2. Leo
Week 6: 37-7 win over Bellmont
Previous Ranking: #2
Week 7: vs Huntington North
Leo Is rolling on all phases and have a nice back end to their schedule to finish with 6-7 wins. Week 8 against Columbia City could be a big game in power poll implications.
3. Columbia City
Week 6: 49-7 win over New Haven
Previous Ranking: #3
Week 7: @ East Noble
Although New Haven was banged up, CC rolled with over 400 rushing yards and one of the best special teams performances to date. This is a big week for the Eagles.
4. East Noble
Week 6: 45-0 loss against Norwell
Previous Ranking: #4
Week 7: vs Columbia City
Norwell is a juggernaut. The number of points scored was shocking but East Noble still has a formidable football team. Finishing against New Haven and Bellmont to end the season could help the Knights headed into the sectional.
5. New Haven
Week 6: 49-7 loss against Columbia City
Previous Ranking: #5
Week 7: vs Bellmont
The Bulldogs are just decimated with injury. Mylan Graham is still making highlights. But a game against Bellmont could help rally the troops.
6. DeKalb
Week 6: 56-48 win over Huntington North
Previous Ranking: #6
Week 7: @ Norwell
I give New Haven the edge just knowing the number of injuries New Haven has currently. And the fact that DeKalb has Norwell this week. Also New Haven beat them head-to-head. The DeKalb vs Huntington North game has really become a fun one!
7. Huntington North
Week 6: 56-48 loss against DeKalb
Previous Ranking: #7
Week 7: @ Leo
The Vikings have been able to score points this season but have lost a good number of games. They were so close with East Noble a few weeks back. But have since faded. They have really played teams tough.
8. Bellmont
Week 6: 37-7 loss against Leo
Previous Ranking: #8
Week 7: @ New Haven
The Braves keep fighting and were in a dogfight with Leo for the first few minutes. Could this be an upset alert vs a very beat-up New Haven group?
