Weekly Football Rankings - Red Nation

OC Top 10

1 OL St. Mary's – Made Burney look stupid in picking against them in the Cass Tech game last week and as a result, I'm eating crow and naming the Eaglets my No. 1 team in the OC all in one fell swoop….Get busy Matty Ice and the crew on 'O' and the "No Name" Nasty Boys on 'D'

2 Birmingham Brother Rice – Alberto "The Sandman" Sandoval is a rising star of a run-plugger for the Warriors' high-profile 'Electric Company' defensive unit….he puts opposing QBs and RBs to sleep with his skeleton-shaking hits

3 (tie) Clarkston – K-Rich survived a scare in Week 5.........bog-down time for the Wolfpack….The HUNGRY HOGS O-Line will come through!!! Mark that down!!!

3 (tie) Lake Orion – Just so explosive in so many ways!!!

4 Novi Detroit Catholic Central – Getting stronger each week…..senior RB-LB Anthony Darkangelo is one of the best high school football players the Shamrocks have seen this decade…..YEAH, I SAID IT!! I love me some BLUE BANDIT BALL and Darkangelo is the definition of a BLUE BANDIT BALLER & SHOT CALLER

5 Oak Park – Knights senior wide receiver Brian Williams is the consummate team captain for TEAM CARTER!!!

6 Farmington – Line lynchpin Mike Purry will have the Falcons purring in Week 6 in response to their loss in Week 5

7 Southfield – Junior wide receiver Devonte Alfred did a really good MEGATRON impression last week…..more of the same is on the horizon

8 (tie) Oxford – Sophomore MEGASTUD quarterback-defensive back Glacier Wallington is MR ICE on the field….simply freezing opponents at every opportunity!!

8 (tie) Birmingham Detroit Country Day – Richie Wilson is making a strong case for being the best junior running back in the OC!!!

9 FH Harrison – When Lorenzo Collins (RB) is back at full strength, the Hawks will be the force on the football field that they should be

10 (tie) AH Avondale – Burney's new pick for frontrunner in the race for the OAA Blue title

10 (tie) Rochester – TEAM VERNON is on the prowl and looking mighty good heading towards the stretch run

10 (tie) WL Northern – Could run the table!!!
