If Narrows is #4 Auburn should be #5. They should have beat Narrows. Up 14 in the 3rd but let it get away.

Had they actually beaten Narrows, I bet they would be. However, I do agree that 4 is a bit high for the Greenwaves. They are doing some great stuff right now, but I need a few more games (Giles notably) before I'm a true believer.

I think 4 is a little high myself. I'm would guess 8-10 range at best right now but that also goes with the fact I know absolutely nothing about the schools in A and very little about B. As far as the Auburn game goes, that's why you play 4 quarters instead of 2. Halftime adjustments made by Narrows shut down Auburn in the 2nd half for the most part. The question for the Green Wave is can their line play hold up to the same standard as last year. I don't think they're quite as strong as last year but is still strong enough to be conducive to winning more game than they lose. The Giles game will tell us definitively where they stand.

How is Northumberland above CB? They're strength of schedule doesn't even compare to CB... CB plays Spotsy, Franklin, Sussex all in a row. Every year Northumberland is talked up till district play then Essex beats them, followed by CB. Will it take until then to have CB ranked above them?

I could be wrong, but I dont think their polls are a prediction for the future So future schedule isnt factored in. That would explain Essex dropping that far, even if they are expected to contend
