A note. These rankings are a composite of the entire season. In this class, Coleridge took the state title on the field. Many of us who watch college football would like to see Divison 1 College teams have such an opportunity. At any rate, as I did these ratings originally at the end of the year, I showed Coleridge in 5th, and Bancroft Rosalie as the champion. Coleridge and Bancroft split during the year, with Coleridge winning the playoff game. Coleridge also beat St Edwards, very highly rated all year as well, and went on to beat Cedar Bluffs and Ansley to take the title. I ran these ratings two or three different ways after the season to see if I could bring Coleridge closer to #1. The results are below. I got Coleridge as high as 4th, and St Edwards ended up number 1. We'll use what we learned this year to see if we can come even closer in following years.
