Here is the big reason they are ranked:

#7 La Marque 19 PN-G 0

#17 Crosby 7 PN-G 0

and those are the current state wide rankings you see.

In the last two years other than PN-G this year, two other teams have held La Marque to fewer than 20 points. Friendswood and Pearland.. both at the time were ranked opponents. Not even Waco could accomplish that feat.

Crosby is one of the better teams in the state and region this year.

Sure, PN-G has yet to score, but look at who they have faced. Both Crosby and La Marque have top notch defenses.

In response to Caney Creek, they were in the exact spot last week PN-G is in now.. 15th in the region. Caney Creek was put there at 1-0 and lost this past week to an average Oak Ridge team.. why should they continue to stay there? they were put there after they beat LC-M, who was on the watch list for the regional rankings.

makes sense to me...Just an odd set of circumstances.

I will say this though. Friendswood holding them to less than 20 is not a huge deal as say PNG simply because when you play someone year in and year out like Friendswood vs. LaMarque, you get a feel for that and everyone knows that kinda game is usually always a barnburner.

Oak Ridge may be average in your opinion, but they're a 5A team and it was a rival game.  Since you want to make your argument based on PN-G's strength of schedule.  Again, where's Ozen who played 2 5A playoff teams and about to play a 3rd????

Quit crying the guy's that did the rankings are you guessed it, our home field ref's ;D We've played two decent teams, but I have to agree that we shouldn't be ranked. Also, I thought our defense was pretty good until I read the PA News and we're like second to last in the district so far in total defense ??? I'm just being real on this one

      Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.

      I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
