I'm looking forward to that possible Escambia vs Columbia playoff matchup.

As of last week RPI format it would be a potential 3rd round matchup but would also involve Escambia needing to beat Daytona Mainland in round 2 first which could present a interesting roadblock

 

Far from a lock but I was there the last time Columbia played Escambia and while I'm not looking forward to another 8 hours on the road if that's what we have to do to get back to states so be it

 

 

I would sit in car and ride straight way from Lake City to Los Angeles if it meant us going to a state title game

So Vero beats Chaminade convincingly 21-0 two weeks ago but you put them ahead of Vero this week? Also Vero has 2 less losses and a head to head convincing win....I’m confused

Vero was ahead of Chaminade after beating them but just because a team wins head to head don't mean they stay ahead of them for rest of season, i use the approach that it's a week by week ranking so because of last week win over Miami Central (who was ranked 6th in FL) I had to boost them higher up the rankings 

[DisabledAccount]

I realized last year when I put too much focus on head to head wins over the course of the season it is impossible to rank that way across the board because many times team A will beat team B then lose to team C who will lose to team B

 

It creates a huge mess so starting this year I began looking at rankings on week to week basis so the more recent results hold the higher weight 

[DisabledAccount]

Look at Wekiva, Jones and West Orange from last year and you will see what i mean by that which is actually the situation that made me realize if I focus too much on head to head over the course of season it can't be followed universally and made that method ineffective

[Jimmyb1980]

The only problem with that logic in this case is that Vero hasn’t lost to a team B or C and Chaminade lost a head to head matchup convincingly...it wasn’t competitive and Chaminade only got inside Veros 35 once and that was then end of the first half were they missed a long FG....and considering that this seems a down year for football across the state the 1 point OT win vs Treasure coast and the opening week 7-3 win over American Heritage are huge! With Chaminade stop the RB and hit the QB stop the offense

Maybe Miami Central was too high.  Vero should be ranked over Chaminade.  Anyone who has Vero lower than Chaminade is a dumb ass.      Oh wait Columbiafan logic on rankings.  Chaminade played Miami Central who could play Columbia in the 6A title game so we will bump them way up.  Since we have to bump Miami Central up we have to bump Chaminade up.

Still waiting on your poll *coughs lazy ass*

 

Or maybe because only other way was to go drop Miami Central out of top 25 which would be a huge WTF logic move

 

Let's see how Vero does against Viera let things work themselves out (kinda like what happened to Palmetto)

Look I have no confidence in Vero and I’m sure they will choke in the playoffs but to currently have them below Chaminade is asinine.  Wait two weeks and then you can drop them below Chaminade 

 

I didn’t even do a Central Florida poll this year.  Way too busy
