Some of the bigger schools didn't have info but I don't think it changed the overall outcome of the discussion I am trying to start. Have Fun!

Mt Vernon in class 3 is no surprise, went 10-2 last year and returned a lot of that team this year.

I think everyone expected Carthage to be better, given the experience they brought back from last year after getting beaten on. From purely a record standpoint, I’d say Branson is the bigger surprise.

When I labeled the most surprising team I was purely going off of projected by the cpu vs actual

I agree the only surprise for me regarding Carthage is that I expected them to be better than they are. They are good but only seem marginally better than last year. All of the remaining games will be tough so we shall see how they end up. I would not be surprised if they go 3-0 or 0-3.

Carthage's offense really hasn't gotten any better at all from last year. The d line is very very good.
