So we have LA now #1, but they won't beat HF in the state series, because: speed. I suppose had they gone out and lost to MC, but done so very fast, they'd be favorites. Huntley moves up 4 spots with their convincing win over 2-7 Dundee Crown.

Why would you rank LA #1 and then pick HF to win 8A?

 

[mchsalumni]

The Huntley jump is quite befuddling. I think she is off her meds.

 

[GEPreps]

Why would Helfgot have GW #2, MC #12, and GN #15 and then he picks Glenbard North to win 7A on the IHSA Playoff show Saturday night?

Why would a 24 hour 7/11 have locks on the doors? Why do ostriches and penguins have wings?

Lmao!

 

[DeanOfSelection]

id be frightened to see her college football rankings

 

[Dino brown]

Beth is amazing isn't she.i think they need to replace her with edgy someone who actually goes to as many games possible and knows what the hell hes talking about.

Valid points....

 

[Wild_Mustang]

I'm sorry but nobody is beating Loyola this year.

I have had the pleasure of meeting and talking football with Beth on one occasion. Her area is individual players and she knows football. Whether or not it translates into rankings is up for debate as any have been. We all laughed at Sako, cringed at Mike Clark's, and argue with edgy, I can't remember Helfgots.

Just the nature of the beast. And I can certainly understand ranking one team higher and picking another to win... Matchups vs current accomplishments.

I will add that Beth Long has a lot of class.
