3. Gilmer
4. Royce City
5. Celina
6. Giddings
7. WOS
8. Bellville
9. Needville

14. Port Isabel
15. Hutto
16. Colmubus
17. China Spring
18. Rio Hondo
19. Robinson
20. Palestine
21. Kirbyville
22. Liberty Eylau
23. Van
24. Coldspring
25. Glen Rose


Haven't done enough research to be able to rank everybody statewide, but I have to question Monohans being #13 and Ab. Wylie is not even on the list. Ab. Wylie all but domanated Monohans in a scrimmage, especially when it was Good-on-Good. Not saying that Monohans doesn't deserved to be ranked but you will have a hard time convincing me that there are 25 3A teams in the state better than Ab. Wylie. So far, they gaving Brownwood all they wanted (had the game tying TD back called back late in the fourth quater) and totally dismantled Iowa Park.

They were one I wanted to put in, but the 1-1 record kept me from putting them in, but I agree...They deserve recognition.

ROFL.

INGLESIDE AT #10??? Are you crazy? Ingleside should be ranked first and take every spot between one and five, then leave five more open spots and start everyone else at 11, just so they know how dominant we are!!!

Come on, Barrett.

Lol...plenty of discussion about one man's poll, but nobody else has taken the time to do their own!

I think that means that they are all in basic agreement.

There probably should be a little more East Texas representation on this poll. I think Pittsburg deserves some recognition as well as Atlanta, top 25 anyway. These two teams are in the same district with Liberty-Eylau. Maybe Crockett should be rated a little higher, too. I like Big Daddy Russ's rankings a little better. He has these teams in there.

Along w/ a couple of other teams in Russ's top 25.

Big Daddy Russ has it pretty close IMO. I say he is probably a little closer to the way I would have rated them. Besides, ratings are nice but they really don't mean diddly squat.

Love the work you've done on your poll. Wish I could spend some time to reasearch like this.

Your poll opens up for dicussion a topic I had the other night. Is it just me or has district 8 3A fall off from what they were three years ago when both Gainsville and Decatur were feared powerhouses and Argyle and Sanger formidable opponents. Gainsville seem to be mediocre for the second straight year and Decatur seems to be down a little this year. Argyle is 2-0, but really hasn't played a quality opponent but they seem to be the front runner in that district right now. What going on?????

If they keep scoring points at the rate their going they won't be flying under anybodies radar. The RB sounds like a stud.

:thinking: :thinking: So how did last year work out?

[Black_Magic]

3 rounds in the playoffs. won 9 in a row after droping first 3.

[rangerjim]

Decatur lost in OT to #18 Burkburnett and whooped up on 4A Brewer (not saying much there). Not bad for a down year - Sweetwater (although down too) will be a good game on Saturday at their place.

A win will be very encouraging for this squad.

Thanks for the laughs!!!!:clap: Luck has kept us from being handed our A$% this year. I hope these two weeks off can help them get their stuff together.

Why all the sudden love for Giddings in the polls? They didn't even have to play to win last week.

[necks_c/09]

hey rixey?


why so much love for ingleside after the went down?

i know the are good but dang?


btw.... i like most of your poll..... i wish i could edit mine.... i may just make a few new corrections

[charlesrixey]

lost to a 4A team

still a good team

[necks_c/09]

i guess thats true.... i didnt realize the the team they played was 4a.....


are they a good 4a?


i didnt know much about them

Don't know much about Hutto, but have been paying some attention to Vernon. The Lions are 4-0 and have won some very close games, but really haven't beaten a REALLY Good team yet. So far they have played a good schedule but lack that one signature win over either a highly ranked 3A team or a good 4A program. They probably have as good an agruement as six or seven teams on everybodies list, but don't sweat it. Rankings don't win championships and time will tell. Keep posting "W"s and let the rankings take care of themselves.

Before people ask, only 24 undefeated teams left in 3A, so I gave each of them a spot in the top 25, because I'm a firm believer that you can only win what's in front of you. Cuero is the best of the one loss teams IMO, so they were the 25th team, and I just ranked them from there.

This seems very politically correct and nice, but the fact is, there are some undefeated teams who are not even in the same league as some of the teams with one or even two losses. The polls are suppose to represent the best 25 teams regardless of their record, not the 25 teams who happen to do a good job of scheduling easy nondistrict games and are undefeated.

ahem...random comments thread please...

[ManuJack]

One team that is coming out and playing pretty well that hasn't been mentioned is Graham. Week 4 and they are undefeated, they beat A. Wylie and Glen Rose. they seem to be shaping up to be quite a team and have been underrated... at least in this poll.

Also, to those who will tell me to make my own if I have complaints, I don't really have time or I would. Until then, I'm just tossing it out there that Graham may go a bit farther than previously expected.

I'm not griping but I think Snyder should be bumped up a little bit, like before Abilene Wylie.

I don't know how those two people could put Robinson ahead of Caldwell in the polls. We beat them pretty handily. There really should be no question who the better of these two teams are. I don't put any stock in these polls and don't think Caldwell has earned the right to be in there just yet. Let's wait until after the Hutto game and see what happens.

[Hornet's Nest]

I'm curious as to why a few people have put Robinson in front of Caldwell. We beat them pretty handily last Friday night. That should prove who the better team of the two are. I don't put any stock in these polls and I don't think Caldwell should be in them just yet. We haven't really played anyone yet. Let's wait until after next Friday nights game against Hutto and then we'll know alot more.

I'm really not trying to just be PC here... watching football games at any level over the last few years, I've become a firm believer that you can only do what's in front of you. Boise State probably wasn't one of the top 10 "best" teams in college football, but they sure as heck played the schedule in front of them and knocked off one of the "best" when they had the chance.

This isn't an end of year poll or anything like that, it's week 4. The playoffs will shake the polls out a lot. Right now, most teams haven't played each other, but I'm not going to move a team down in my ranks simply because their schedule is "easier". If I were merely trying to be PC, I would have put Cuero at 25 since they have a loss. In my mind, they're the best 1 loss team in 3A, so that's why they're in my poll. I'm sure that a few undefeated teams will be knocked off in the coming weeks, and they'll lose spots as a result.

But I can assure you this. Any team that is undefeated come mid-December deserves to be at the top of the poll regardless of their schedule, so why not reward undefeated teams early on as well?

Well it's good to see someone else giving Anthony some love! These poor guys are so close to being a Class A team, but are stuck in 3A for what I would assume is a cost and travel related decision.

Edit: Necks I know about the thread. It's ANTHONY for crying out loud. They deserve some mention on a thread right at the top of this board. Anyone else and it'd be there on that thread, but I'd like them to get a little attention while they're still undefeated and unscored upon.

I can't understand why some people are putting Robinson in front of Caldwell in these polls. We beat them pretty handily last Friday night. I don't put much stock in these polls. I don't think that we've really beaten anyone that would warrant us to be in them just yet. Let's wait until next Friday night against Hutto and see if we deserve it. We'll find out how good we are then.

Really, I only have good knowledge of the West Texas teams. The rest I have to go with the judgment of others. I do know that Graham is for real, Wylie (3-2) and Wimberley (1-4) are much better than their records (who has played a tougher schedule than Wimberley?). And, why isn't Canyon in other's top 25? Look for some of this to get sorted out when Wylie and Wimberley clash this week in Abilene.

haha...sweetwater raped canyon in the butt and you have them above them haha...your poll, your decision!!:D

Not disagreeing with Clyde being in your top 25. But based on who they've played and who they've beaten I think Wylie and Clyde should be flip flopped.

You're right. Canyon should be in the top 25 but not above Sweetwater. They should probably flip positions.

[Dominicfrank]

Sweetwater doesnt belong in the top 25 and neither does Clyde. Wyile i guess does somewhere close to the bottom. Vernon stunk it up and I wouldnt mind them dropping out of everyones top 25. Hope that sends a message to them you cant just show up with a strate ranking and think that wins games for you. Bad game agaginst an average Clyde team.

Thank y'all for keeping us off the radar! That is how we like it. The LAST poll is the one we want to see.

Hey Reds fan, don't know where Kenney Tx. is but I agree with your poll more than I do with anybody else's poll. The top ten seems to be legit and the bottom 15, well everybody's going to have an opinion, but like I said, yours seems to be right on.

dont know if this has been said yet but can we have a panel who decides on about 35 teams that u have to choose from bc teams are being left off because their being forgot about and if theres a list i think that makes that less likely to happen

That's definitely a good suggestion. I don't know if it's exactly what was included on the poll about how everyone wanted to do the rankings. If nothing else, the Regional rankings are a good start. Region III is the only region with less than 15, but I'm sure that can be changed. I can ask.

I don't agree with doing what was suggested at all. Basically you would just be taking what someone else believes are the top teams and would be limited to selecting from just that list. While those lists might encompass most of the good teams in every region, if not all, folks shouldn't have to choose teams for a top 25 going off of what someone else thinks.

The uniqueness here is everyone gets to pick the teams THEY want and NOT what someone else wants.

Thanks Gilmus...even the (local) writer for the Dallas Morning News spelled it wrong in his brief 4 sentence game story this week.

It was funny though...the story starts off, Royse City - ....then a sentence later ....too lead Royce City...

Not that anybody really knows, but these may be the worst ratings I've ever seen. I guess I'm a little bit of a homer too, but I seriously doubt that there are 25 3A teams better than Abilene Wylie. Even at 4-2.

Didn't make me feel good or bad, just couldn't believe that you could purposely think that there are 25 3A teams better than AW. I never take rankings to serious because there actually irrelevant and I certainly don't get riled up about them, but since it's a huge and popular topic on discussion boards, I chime in at times.

I agree. I don't usually do top 25 polls but I was bored this morning and did this.

[Texasfootball2]

Just now took a look a some of the other scores from Friday night. Saw where Andrews (6-0) just barely beat Big Springs 33-29. Big Springs had just previously played Abilene Wylie 61-14, and Sweetwater 44-0. Neither of these two games were even competitive. I know that comparing games can be somewhat misleading at times, but when one team is not even competitive two weeks in a row and then plays another team that is suppose to be at about the same level, I think a comparison is valid.

Having said all this I feel like Andrews is probably overrated.

Yea and they had to come from behind in last minute of the game to win it. They were also at home, and it was their homecoming. Andrews has improved I think, but they have played an extremely week schedule which has them waaaaaaay overated IMHO.

[buff4ever]

don't just judge LH by one game here or there that you've seen. They play to win the game in that game. They may not always look like the best team in the state when they do it, but if they don't ever lose, guess what.....They are state champions, no matter how they look the week or 5 you watched them. There are some teams you can't judge till you have played them, and I wouldn't put a judgement on any team in the state on one game, maybe they had a rough night. There are times that you can watch someone and just know that they don't have the skilled players or talent to get things done, but LH isn't that team.

I will have to disagree with you on the last part of your statement. The better team would not get totally dominated in the fourth quater by a team fighting a strong head wind, down 21, and only one time out left. Clyde had four possessions, and only needed two or three first downs to put the game away and could only make one first down in their last four possessions.

Maybe the real Wylie team didn't show up until the fourth quater?

I do think that Clyde should definitely be recognized in anybodies top 25. They are a good football team and will be a force to recon with in the playoffs. They will not be an easy out.

I dont think Wylie should be that high if Vernon and Clyde are that low. both or neither. I think Graham, Vernon, Wylie, Clyde Sweetwater, maybe Snyder are the class of Region 1. Let me take it one step further and say Region 1 is the best region as far as I can tell. There might be a Gilmer or Celina that can beat whoever we send out but from 1-10 region 1 is tougher than the others.

Oh no TWO GRAHAM BLOWHARDS ! GRaham is good but they are not a top 5 team. Top 5 teams should be teams that can get at least three rounds deep and until Graham and its players and coaching staff prove they are anything more than a district player I say they dont sniff the top 5 or top 10.

[MarginalTalent]

I think they proved that last year (3 rounds deep)

Here you go Clyde, somebody is showing you some love. The only three loss team ranked.


Andrews should def. be knocked down 7 or 8 spots.

I dont think Wylie should be that high if Vernon and Clyde are that low. both or neither. I think Graham, Vernon, Wylie, Clyde Sweetwater, maybe Snyder are the class of Region 1. Let me take it one step further and say Region 1 is the best region as far as I can tell. There might be a Gilmer or Celina that can beat whoever we send out but from 1-10 region 1 is tougher than the others.

Look at Wylie's two losses and the fact they beat 4A Frenship 35-7 who was ranked at the time. They have played one of the toughest schedules in 3A.

Region 3 is the best region just look at the AP top 5 and half of it is region 3 and the other half is all other regions: Region 3 has Giddings, Liberty Hill, WOS, Lavega, Caldwell all in the top ten not to mention teams like Madisonville on the outside looking in

I keep telling people, but nobody seems to listen...watch out for Carthage...they could wreck some havoc!

LOL! Comprehension is good to use as well. ;)

[SNYDER325TIGERS]

I say Gilmer deserves the #1 spot for sure

[RedWhiteBlue]

See, I am just the opposite- you guys put Graham wherever you want them or see them.... it doesn't matter to me. Actually, I prefer to be at the bottom or no where and them at the then end of the season everyone say, "where did those guys come from". Instead of evey week being heard saying, "why aren't we #1, #5, #16, whatever" who cares????? It is just a poll- it determines nothing- it is not a guaranteed anything!!!!!

What does someone from Snyder even care about Giddings for? Plus, he hasn't even seen them play. At least you've seen them play!

[Johnny 5]

How is it possible that RH moved down 3 ranks after beating PI, claiming at least a stake in the District title and is one game away from a perfect regular season.

[DaHop72]

Nothing against the opionion of those who have done a top 25 but I'm like Snyder_TigerFan, not sure about Andrews ranked above Snyder after Friday nights game.:confused:

[Stownhorse]

All of yalls rankings suck.

I'm starting to agree. :D

The reason why I haven't done one of these is because I haven't taken the time to research a lot of teams that I don't know much about, but it looks as though there aren't many people to do that anyway.

[eagles_victory]

next year there should be a rule if you dont submit your own poll it doesnt count none of this +1 +2 stuff

:o haha you caught me. i just use someone else's poll and change up the top 10, don't pay much attention the rest!

There probably should be a little more East Texas representation on this poll. I think Pittsburg deserves some recognition as well as Atlanta, top 25 anyway. These two teams are in the same district with Liberty-Eylau. Maybe Crockett should be rated a little higher, too. I like Big Daddy Russ's rankings a little better. He has these teams in there.
