If you have an issue with which Tier a team is placed on, The Tiers encourage you (as a valued crowd source) to make your case. As you stated, you don't have Folsom ranked in your tiers because they don't have any quality wins yet, correct? There's a handful of teams on your tiers that don't have any quality wins or even close losses against quality opponents. Thus my whole point. I can comb through the schedules of every team on your tiers to prove my point if you'd like but here's two off the top of my head - Mission Viejo and Dutch Fork. Neither of these teams have played anyone relevant up to this point in the season yet get passes. Personally, I think these two teams are good but their schedules are quite frankly pathetic for their standards wouldn't you say? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I think these two teams are good but their schedules are quite frankly pathetic for their standards wouldn't you say? Both Dutch Fork and MV are placed in Tiers because other members talk about them. Both DF and MV, and also Folsom could have a case for being in a higher Tier had their schedule offered them a chance to beat a Top 50/75/100 opponent. All three are arguabley placed artificially low in The Tiers due to lack of vetting opportunities. Same for Lakeland. But that lack of vetting opportunities are those teams own fault, and The Tiers won't reward them for the "benefit of the doubt" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree with that being due diligence. So then how would you explain Excluding a Team with wins over 2 teams in this Top 100?.... San Diego CC has been left out of this Poll since losing to #87 Helix, yet they hold wins over #44 Saguro AZ and #52 Corona Cen10 who are both Ranked in this poll... This is better then any wins on Helix's Resume, Folsom's Resume and Mission Viejo's Resume.... Yet, This Poll Rewards Teams Like Folsom Ranked #38 who was not even competitive against DLS, and if it wasn't for a missed FG would have lost to Unranked Oak Ridge, and Mission Viejo who has no quality wins but is ranked #24... Up until they lost their Starting QB to season ending Injury the week before last, SDCC had 2 Wins over this Top 100 and their only loss was to Helix who is Ranked in this Top 100... Every other team boasting SDCC's type of Resume was in this Poll... This is the Definition of a "Lazy Poll"... If Servite Beats MV tonight, it will be the #83 Team Knocking off the #24 team almost a 60 Spot Difference... That would be a Real Black Eye for an already questionable poll....

It appears your Trinity League schedules really held up. Cen10 56 JSerra 0 Poly 27 OLu 24 And of course......ding,,ding,ding..... MV 37 SERVITE 34!!!!!!

So Lazy Actually watched the entire Servite game last night and came away impressed with the team. Four losses to ranked teams and playing Bosco even should go along way toward a solid rankings in all polls. However, I am still at a loss at your obsession with Folsom. Backing a team is a good thing, not sure about the focus on Folsom being a good thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are spot on with your analysis. Of all the states I review for national rankings, Jersey has been the toughest. Just when I think I have a handle on it, everything blows up and I start thinking maybe Penn's Grove, Hillside or Ramapo may be the state's best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way those publics last against Bosco, Joes, SPP, and BC. DePaul beats them and PC does too. I'd have to look some more, but ND, SA, SHP, and Delbarton might beat them, although those teams are even more inconsistent than the top teams. I go to Ramapo games, and they want nothing to do with the top Catholics. you don't even have to cross that bridge. The Catholics grab their best players. See BC's QB wgo was at Ramapo. Penns Grove is Group 1. 5 guys would be knocked out of the game by the 1/2. Same with Group 2 Hillside. Trinity Ky could beat some of these teams. Just leave NJ out till the yr's over.
