LSG Preseason Polls

5A - That's right.  Aledo is back at the top of the polls.  Yes, it was a tight contest between them and Denton Ryan - in fact, internally we went back and forth between the two for quite some time.  Cedar Park fans are sure to be saying, "what the heck?" but come on... there are just some amazing teams in Class 5A again this season.  Strong 6A programs that dropped down and solid ones that remain in the class.  When you look at the top of this heap, we are talking the top 10 teams all being capable of taking a a state championship... the squads are all that good.  So don't get bent about who is at #2 and who is at #5 - rest assured that simply making it into the Big 30 in such a deep classification means you have a team that could have an amazing season.

Mike Says: In Division I, Denton Ryan is moving down form 6A and is the favorite to make it to their first championship game since 2010. They owned the early 2000's making it to the championship game from 2000-2003. Last years defending champion Cedar Park is predicted as the runner up. This would be their fourth championship game in the last five years. Dallas Highland Park and Richmond Foster will also be very good teams to watch. In Division II, Aledo is back. Where they really gone though, having made the championship game five of the last seven years. We have them set to play Crosby who was our #1 team last year. Frisco Lone Star will also be back and wants another shot at the championship. A surprise team may be College Station.

Chris Says: This is kind of a flip flop from last season.  Aledo and Crosby were both  DI and are now going to go DII.  Cedar Park on the other hand looks to be going up to DI.  In the end it looks like our #1 and #2  (Denton Ryan and Aledo) will both walk away state champions while Cedar Park will make the trip again but is predicted to come up a bit short.  It also looks like we may have been early on Crosby last year was pegged to go to the title game and this year should make the journey to AT&T Stadium.  There will be a lot of emotion surrounding Corpus Christi Calallen as Phil Danaher is likely to become the winningest coach in Texas high school football history.  Who know?  That kind of emotion could be enough to even move them into a title match.  Don't sleep on Lancaster, Temple or College Station though as peaking at the right time could upset the entire dance card.  Regardless of who is standing in December, this is likely to be the best competition of any football in Texas this year.

What do you say?

Ok, so Crosby was their #1 pick last year....

. . . . and Ned with their great coach and execution is where? ? ? ? ? That's right, they're in line buying Vaseline waiting on Dayton to come to town.

Look at it on the bright side BigDog, you'll probably be able to say "I told you so" after the Manvel game . . . Then you'll get to sit quietly by, while we run off 13 or 14 in row, and hope somebody from Central Texas or SW Houston can beat us before the site crashes.

picked #1 by several sites , expected to be in the state championships and then donkey stomped in the second round.  Sounds like someone else needs the Vaseline.

Our trainers usually keep a few tubes of Boudreaux's butt paste to help opponents as we crop-dust SETX. I'm sure we have extra room in the playoff budget for charter buses and cowbells so a little salve shouldn't be an issue.

They must of used up the full allotment after Ridge  Point got through with them.  Might need to stock up some more for Manvel and maybe Dayton . :)

Just like your last 6 games against Ned have. Only difference is that we won our first 11 and expected to win that one too. PNG puts L's on the schedule before they even released. 

Now my recollection is not the best but if I remember you PNG aw heck even Nederland all finished in the same spot last season. round 2 of the playoffs. Now you can quote me if I am wrong.

With Nations at the helm(with over 60 players compared to just 30 last year on varsity) Broncs will finally field a strong defensive squad that will compliment an already potent offense- should be a great year!

Crosby seems to be the only fans really concerned about rankings,  even when they don't live up to them.  If Dayton and Ned just do their thing and make a run in the playoffs the rankings don't matter.

Maybe some of your better players won't get tired late in games.  Strength in numbers.

My only question is where does Dayton get their work in? I think it's going to take 4 or 5 games like it did when Riordan took over. I think CV is a great game to see where your squad is athletically and Ned is a good game to check your execution in a tough environment. Other than Splendora, five of Dayton's first six games are against CV, Ned, Humble, New Caney and BH. Dayton has a good chance to come out of there 5-0 but I wouldn't be surprised if they come out 2-3 under a first year coach. It at least sounds like Dayton has fixed the depth issues though.
