Early Friday Night Victors Power Rankings

1) Bedford, biggest dog on this block reloads.

2) Carlson, Jack Giarmo with D I players on the roster.

3) Milan, The Big Reds return a host of veteran players.

4) Monroe High, Notario’s second season should be better.

5) SMCC, look for the Falcons to rebound after playing a young lineup most of last season.

6) Riverview, loads of healthy talent returning.

7) Ida, new coach and heavy graduation losses lifted by winning culture.

8) Flat Rock, Rams looking for their best year in decades.

9) Huron, talented roster must adapt to a new coach and style.

10) Dundee, talented roster looks to rise to the playoffs.

11) Airport, talented group with an unproven 1st year coach.

12) Grosse Ile, Red Devils must replace virtually every starter with the loss of 13 seniors.

13) Jefferson, Bears must replace two of the better players in school history along with their coach.

14) Erie Mason, new coach has work cut out after only 11 wins in the last decade.

  • Size does not always equal D1. This kid is in the gym more than any other kid that I know. Not to mention the training that he does all off season. Linemen have to be extremely talented to play D1 football. Not just be big. Ignorant comments.

  • WHEN YOU HAVE TALENT AND SIZE, YOU'VE GOT THE BEST PLAYER IN THE LEAGUE (ALL-STATE MATERIAL, (22 OFFER 6 D-1 SCHOOLS) WE HAVEN'T HAD ONE OF THEM FOR AWHILE (22 OFFER 6 D-1 SCHOOLS) -- MEANER AND A LOT STRONGER. AND DON'T BLINK OR YOU'LL MISS THE SPEED.

  • Pretty good list Chris, I would put the order like this:

    1) Bedford- The Mules are the best program in the area right now
    2) Milan- D1 talent and SPEED
    3) Carlson- only because of Jack Giarmo otherwise they would be 8 or 9
    4) Flat Rock- Best team they have had in a long time
    5) Monroe- See Milan
    6) SMCC- SMCC's best class since 2014 team will be juniors
    7) Huron- Good coach, alot of talent, will compete immediately from what my friends down the road are saying.
    8) Airport- Same as anyone in the league in terms of talent, any coach with a state title ring is a plus, this is the year!
    9) Riverview- Talent, toughness, year 2 in the T
    10) Ida- Talent is there, I hope they hire a good coach
    11) Jefferson- Tough kids, depends on who is the new coach
    12) Dundee- Unproven, win games they shouldn't win, lose games they shouldn't win
    13) Grosse Ile- I already regret putting the Islanders in this spot
    14) Erie Mason- Sorry Eagles, you are 2 years away

    • Milan lost its speed with #6 and #9 so not sure what you are talking about. That D1 talent isn't talent it's size.
