Southeast District Top 25 (3-16-12)

[jimmy chipwood]

Remember, my rankings are more of an RPI rating and take into account a team's entire season and not just the last game they played. Obviously, the last 5-10 games are more important than the first 10 of the season for all teams. Head to head games are very helpful in determining ranking but alone do not decide a team's ranking. If I had ties there is no doubt I would have a three way tie for #19. I have added 5 bonus teams to make an even Top 30.

Wow Eastern behind a team they beat by 15 !

[HoundsAre4Real]

Then Manchester could say, WOW! Manchester behind a school they beat by 13! Just be proud there on here and quit complaining.

[TripleDouble]

Manchester should say WOW. Probably should go Beaver Eastern, Manchester, then Webster.

I agree, Beaver Eastern should be the highest team in the rankings from D4. They proved it. And saying Notre Dames worst
Loss is to Eastern is dumb, it should be South Gallia.

I agree about nd's worse loss. Copy and pasted. Fixed.

[Lightle04]

Stop hate'n it should go Eastern,Manchester, South Webster just by how the year ended .

[jimmy chipwood]

These rankings are not based on 1 game. Didnt Zane Trace beat Eastern Pike by 20 on their home floor? Do you see Zane Trace anywhere in the rankings? Some games are obviously more important than others but I will not base my rankings off of one game.

Like your work Jimmy, but head to head matchups should be the major factor when you are comparing teams that are not in the same conference. Eastern Pike proved in the tourney that they deserve to be ahead of all the other Southeast District d-4 teams..including Manchester and Webster.

[jimmy chipwood]

Eaglesnest, I understand and respect your thought process. I dont expect to many people to agree with my rankings (especially during tournament play) because people get emotional and only remember a team's last game. Notre Dame was beaten by South Gallia but that doesnt make South Gallia the higher ranked team. Ohio University beat Michigan but would still not be ranked higher.

As a Eastern fan I agree with you Jimmy one game isnt enough
