2 things for Doc guys and from Grunhard

Not a doc guy, but unless Northwest has found a better QB, they will likely lose to Minnesota State. Their stud RB also transferred to D1. Northwest's defense will be good and will have to carry them. But without good QB play, I think they are in trouble vs. Minnesota State.
Your first statement was the best: “not a doc guy”. The question was for the Mox and the rest of the actual Doc Guys.

Coach Fox will give them HELL, but the NW OL is stellar!

Preseason Rankings

Carthage #2 in C5 followed by Platte County. After that yes a jumble but Fort and Webb have to be in there somewhere.

Still want to see Rock deep into their demanding schedule to make any judgement.

Assuming the numbers say C4 Parkway North should be ranked without a doubt.

Other classes look pretty spot on unless MSHSAA changes the classification breaks. Adrian is borderline C1-2 will contend in the latter be the favorite in the former.

C3-4 watch the very deep MRVC West assuming they don't cancel each other out. Maxwell has been back at HVille for a bit now I'd watch them for sure.
Carthage vs Nixa in week 4 is going to tell us a lot about where both teams are at.

Week 1 COC picks

Except they are further away from the center, or what was the center, because you're moving the goal post. Only by adding Lebanon and Waynesville is Springfield the 'center' of the conference. It was not the center of the conference before. Lebanon and especially Waynesville were well outside of the geography of the COC at the time they were added.

Waynesville only fits from the perspective of someone in Springfield because for them at least, it's not any further than places they were already going.

Consider this - the COC adds Pryor, OK and Claremore, OK. If that happened I'm pretty confident the good people in Nixa would be up in arms. They would say those schools don't fit, they are too far away and one of them isn't even good competition. Then Joplin could say sure they fit, they are the same distance from the center of the conference (us), just in a direction that is unfortunate to you.
I think you confused geography center with political center. Or maybe I wasn’t just 100% clear on that. The west schools don’t really make the calls, especially now.
