I think we need to watch Tecumseh they are 7-0 for the first time since 2001 and they went two deep in the state playoffs two years ago. Even though there schedule isnt all that tough they proved a point when they beat winton woods 14-13 in ‘06. Tipp will probably be there biggest test all year since most of the teams they have faced this year have losing records. Week 8 will ba a battle of unbeaten teams and it will decide the CBC champs for ‘08. Tecumseh ranked 2nd in region 8 and 8th in state

Brookville is so overrated… They play in probably the weakest division in the dayton area. If you look at all the teams they play, i dont think any of them has a winning recorded and the ones whom has won games are against those that has a terrible record. Well see how good they are when they take on either Coldwater, Alter, or clint massie. i beat they wont even get passed the one of them. dont forget, they play VV and they are def the toughest team they will play in their season schdule.

Valley View is waaaay over rated. They play in such a week league. Plus their stadium is so bad they shouldn’t be allowed to have a playoff game on their home field.

I agree with anonymous. Tippecanoe is good, i’ll give them that, but overall, they just don’t stack up to other teams in the state. They are competing in the CBC which never has good teams that are sucessful in the playoffs. They are definately overrated.

I believe that the Tippecanoe Red Devils are greatly overrated. Although they are undefeated and haven’t really been challenged, you have to see how every time they make the playoffs they get crushed. In the computer rankings, it is alright because it is all math, but in the state poll, there is no way that they are the 4th best team in the state.

Brookville Blue Devils are not getting any TV or Newspaper coverage! They are 6-0 and they never get on the front cover of the sports section! Is it because it is such a small school,that should not matter. I always see schools from as far as 100 miles away always on the front. My nephew plays for Brookville and is a Senior. The team is pouring their heart and soul into the game of Football! Please try a little harder to give The Blue Devils the recognition they all deserve!!!!

Many Dayton teams are over-rated. They don’t play anyone. Just like Ohio State Bucknuts. Centerville, Alter, etc … they play cupcakes and they use illegal players … time to clean house and just shut Dayton down …

The Valley View Spartans are under appreciated. I guess when you are so sucsessful for so long people come to expect it, and take it for granted.
