Hi Patrick,
Big game for Apopka this week. BOL there, I am hoping Apopka can perhaps surge into the playoffs somehow....
I might be wrong but with already solid Defenses, I think DFB and Miramar's Offense are picking up a bit. As a whole they probably at minimum on par with any 8A team in Region 3 or 4. Columbus is really not that good this year talent wise but because they are so well coached and usually peak late in the playoffs they would probably be the slight favorite right now in 8A Regions 3-4.
As far rankings, I would probably go:
DFB
Miramar
Columbus
Miami Senior
Palmetto
Plantation
Southridge
South Dade
Western
Delray Atlanic
Of Note:
Seminole Ridge
Park Vista
Palm Beach CentralNorth Miami
North Miami Beach
Coral Gables
Palm Beach Gardens
South Plantation
Belen Jesuit
Monarch-
I like your rankings. Osceola to me reminds me a lot of Columbus. They both had "off" years 2016, were beasts in 2014 and 2015, appear to be taking care of business in 8A in 2017 with what may be young teams that will be even stronger next year. I think Osceola's "new" offense seems to be working for them and Columbus may have the best coaching staff in 8A South. I think I have a mental block that the 2015 versions of these teams were probably 2+ TDs better then teams and they still could not win states.
I admit , I do have a defensive bias in football and I feel DFB and Miramar may have arguably the best defenses in 8A South. I do feel they are both creeping up offensively as well but would not be shocked if they got out-coached by Columbus. The inconsistency by Southridge scares me a bit. Although when at their best can probably beat anybody in 8A, I could also see them losing slipping up in a 4 game path to states. I am not impressed with their coaching. I would imagine DFB would be hungry to face them again in November.
Still would not count Delray Atlantic out. Their problem has been at the QB position. They have 2 average at best undersized QBs that have very talented receivers but not getting the most out of them.
Looking closer at my tiers I will adjust my second tier. I feel like you made me use better judgement with this:P
Southridge
South Dade
Plantation
Palmetto
Western
Delray Atlantic
