re: John Curtis vs. Rummel

hey might be the best team, but the issue is they haven't done as much to prove it as the GA, CA, or TX state champions

you can even argue Rummel had a harder schedule

Exactly. Curtis had to be up for two or three games this year: The 2A state final and the first two games of the season against St. Paul's and Plant, Fla.Plant and St. Paul's played in high classifications, but both were eliminated early in their respective state playoff races.

No way Curtis should be rewarded for that schedule. I know it's not their fault and if they had their way, they would have been able to prove it in 4A against the likes of Karr and Neville, but their schedule simply doesn't measure up to other teams out there who are unbeaten.

It's the SEC vs. MAC argument at the high school level. You could put 2001 Miami in the MAC right now and I'd still say Alabama would deserve to be ahead of them in the BCS because of strength of schedule. Same thing here.
