Interesting Silsbee beats Jasper and LC-M (c'mon now ) last week and leap frogs to #1 but Central won 2 games last week, one of which was to Ozen, who was #1 last week (Central owns TWO wins against them)  and is only #2.  Am I the only one that finds this to be a head scratcher?

How did Silsbee leapfrog? They were #2 last week. Just moved up one spot after Ozen loss. Kind of natural to me and it seems 8 other voters think the same way. In fact, one voter has had Silsbee #1 the last few weeks so that vote would not have changed.

But wins vs. Jasper and LC-M propels you to #1?

How did Silsbee leapfrog? They were already #2.

Ok, they didn't leapfrog.  I actually had them #3.  But you get my point...  I mean... I'm sure that even the teams that got votes and didn't make the rankings at the bottom would have no problem with LC-M or Jasper....

[BMTSoulja1]

And this is the  sake of debate, because I think the rest of the polls are perfect.  

[TxHoops]

I always find head to head to be the most telling.  Silsbee beat Central.  Central beat Ozen (now twice).  I've had these 3 in this order for weeks now...

Yea, I understand what you're seeing, but Ozen was the hottest team in setx prior to Tuesday AND was # 1 in the rankings and took a loss...  That's my point...

Perfect? Then explain why you have Humble and Kingwood Park ranked ahead of CE King the last two weeks when King has beaten them both in the last two weeks. Also, North Shore is undefeated in district and yet you have La Porte ranked ahead of them when LP has lost two games in district to West Brook and PA Memorial. Am I the only one that finds that to be a head scratcher?

completely understand your point and the opposing view.  Just a personal view of mine with polls.  Obviously, they isn't any science to them.  Just opinions

Maybe  I didn't make myself clear, so I'll repeat myself...  I think the above polls are perfect with the exception of what I'm debating.  Has nothing to do with my picks whatsoever... But I'm sure you knew that.

If you are going to question the rankings or a part of the rankings in open forum, then as a voter in these rankings, you should answer questions about your rankings.

I believe I answered your question. Ozen was #1, Silsbee was #2, Ozen lost, Silsbee won. Pretty simple. Oh, and 8 of the 10 voters obviously agrees.

Yes, most if not all the teams in the big school rankings would beat LC-M and Jasper. So what is the point? Who's to say Silsbee wouldn't beat Ozen? You know who they already beat this season.

[BMTSoulja1]

Silsbee has taken 3 lopsided losses...  Ozen, only 1.  Ozen also reeled off 11 straight wins prior to losing to Central last Tuesday.  During that span, they beat some pretty stiff competition, 6a and 5a.  So who's to say Ozen wouldn't have beat Silsbee?

The biggest head scratcher is in the 3A-Small Private poll. Pollok Central moves from #2 to #9...bumping below Woodville after beating them by 37 last week. Not a knock on Woodville, just doesn't fit.

Point is we will never know. That's why you try not to speculate who would beat who when ranking these teams.

Most of the voters believe Silsbee's resume speaks for itself. It was an easy move up to #1 when they were already #2 in every voters poll except two.(one had them #1, other had them #3)

Just saying that a win Over previous #1 Ozen in the week would hold more weight than wins vs. Jasper or LC-M...

So the question for voters becomes, is the win over Ozen enough for Central to leapfrog Silsbee. Its a good debate.

Not if Silsbee keeps winning. Witch Im pretty sure they will. They will stay #1 ..... I new Silsbee would be back to #1 today in the STATE RANKING'S .They are the only team in the 4A top 5 that hasn't lost a game since tournament season.
