On a serious note, why would anyone comment on those computer rankings . They mean absolutely nothing and don't make any sense period.according to the MaxPreps computer ranking as of today....
Norcal Rankings...
1.PW
2. Mitty
3. Clet
4. MM
5. St Francis (MV)
6. Antelope
7. Menlo
8.Heritage
the 2 surprises are obviously SF and Menlo and I don't think (barring a CCS OPEN Upset) that either team gets moved to the OPEN...all the others are legit OPEN potential teams.
D1....
9. Salesian
10. Bear Creek
11. SMS
12. McClatchy
13. Folsom
14. Montgomery
15. SRV
16 CN
17. Cons Oaks
18. SI
19. SAC
20. BOD
21. St Pats
22. Presentation
23. Enterprise
24. Cal
Notable omissions:
St Joes
Mission SJ
SHC
Elk Grove
Berkeley
I have to believe at least 3 of the 5 above will be in D1...so whos out?
Enterprise for sure as their commissioner will lobby to get them in D2 or D3.
So who else?
On a serious note, why would anyone comment on those computer rankings . They mean absolutely nothing and don't make any sense period.
the fact that Presentation (#1) and ESP (#2) were the top 2 seeded teams in D1 last year and West Campus was a D3 team shows you that the CIF committee weighs the MaxPreps rankings. Now we are only 2/3 of the way thru the season so the rankings are still adjusting obviously...but at this point you are not going to move that far...at most (if you are in the top 60-70) plus or minus 20 (obviously if you have a long extended losing streak you could fall more).
A perfect example of the MaxPreps rankings enlightening this board on a sleeper team is MENLO... not on most of ours radars....but looking like a CCS OPEN team again and a D1 Norcal candidate.
I'll wager that EVERY team in the top24 will end up in OPEN, D1 or D2.... it does in fact give u an idea on some teams that perhaps you weren't aware of.
