We will see how the loss to Rock ages over the season for them. Class 6 in KC seems more wide open than it was thought to be after week 1. No clear favorite at the moment.
Surprise of the Night?

Been that way for a long long time. If you have a legit kicker then there might be a small advantage? But trying to execute a field goal (in place of a punt to try and take advantage of the rule), even from the 50, when you could just punt it 25 yards doesn’t really make sense. Especially considering the consequences of the field goal attempt getting blocked, botched, or not making it to the endzone.
I'm surprised FO didn't do that with Shepard the past 4 years, or I wonder if Schmidt? at GV ever did that. I can't believe I never saw a team utilize that while Larenzo Fenner was returning for FO.
We are about to find out: Week 3 at Mill Valley (KS) who is neck and neck with Derby for #1 overall in the Sunflower State should be a nice early measuring stick.
Week 3 looks really outstanding State wide and the Cards visit to Lamar will, yes, tell a whole lot. Wow not sure how, frankly, they take that one though.
Depends if Lamar still is missing that QB. If they look human against MC they will defnitely look human against Tipton.
I think it could be for the conference title. I plan to be there. It will be my first Bell Game.
It's all a point system, so it will be based on wins and losses, opponent's record, and margin of victory. You get bonus points for playing up a class, but no deduction for playing down a class.
1. Earning Points:
a. Points for Game Result
Win/Receiving Forfeit: 20
Loss: 10
Overtime Loss: 15
Forfeiting: 5
b. Points for Playing Up (11-Man)
i. 10 points per class played up (i.e. Class 1 plays a Class 3, 20 points earned)
ii. No penalty for playing down
iii. No play up points will be awarded to either team when a contest is forfeited prior to the start or a team refusing to complete the contest.
iv. Play up points will be awarded when a contest is played and forfeit occurs due to the use of an ineligible player.
c. Points for Strength of Schedule
i. Sum of the win/loss points of all opponents’ games less your point contribution to the sum.
ii. Count of all opponents’ games less your games against opponents.
iii. Forfeits: If a school has forfeited a contest; opponent’s strength of schedule points will be calculated at 10 points.
d. Points for Score Differential: Points are accumulated by the difference between your score and opponent’s score in each game.
Positive points in a win and negative points in a loss. Maximum points: +13 or -13
2. Calculating Points:
a. Sum of Win/Loss points divided by number of games
b. Sum of Play-Up points divided by number of games
c. Strength of Schedule points divided by Total Games
d. Sum of Score Differential points divided by number of games
e. Add the calculations from a-d to determine seed points
3. Seeding
a. Each teams’ seed points are calculated
b. Teams are seeded from highest to lowest by highest point total to lowest in comparing district team seed points.
4. Applying the Automatic Switch: If two teams have played head-to-head and their seeds are consecutive they will be switched if the lower seed has beaten the higher seed (for example, the #2 seed beats the #1 seed head to head; they will be switched). Once a switch has been made, that team is protected from being switched again (for example, the #1 seed cannot be switched with the #3 seed). This process will start from the higher seed and work down through each seeded position.

I agree with this one. For the Cards to manhandle the Pintos was a shocker. We will see when they travel to Lamar. Conference run should be pretty easy. Districts may be the Cards to lose.
That was indeed the pre-season question for them moving all the way up to 5. Haven't seen PC yet did see Fort in real time Friday night my goodness they are stout especially on D as many of us have already discussed.
