If some crappy Florida team wants to travel around the nation and get their ass beat every year don't blame me.

Last year in Florida that was 97% of the state?....
So what's the big fucking deal?

I think my work's finished in this thread.

At least I was able to find 1 legitimate Preseason Top 25 team for CA in 2026.
Had I stayed on it I probably could have done a pretty good Top 25

#Pacifica

Not to worry. MaxPreps will nail it again! 🤠🏈🤠

For the record, Woody.

John Curtis played a much better Santaluces squad than National Power Baylor, TN did this past year.
Why don't you work Baylor's ass too!

You really do need to lay off the cactus juice when posting in public.

...because nobody from Tennessee is on here daily fighting for their wins against Santaluces to be glorified and demanding they be allowed to continue scheduling a bunch of slap dicks.

These conversations aren't happening because of who Louisiana schedules OOS, they happen because of your repeated reaction to those games.

 These conversations are happening due to pure jealousy!

You live in a very shitty football state so naturally you are going to be in every single conversation concerning Louisiana.

People don't even expect Arizona to be good at football. That's how bad the state is.

Carry on though, Woody.
Keep up the good fight.

There's a lot more to high school football than just loading up a couple of teams with transfers and then roster raiding every offseason.


Arizona ranks #30 on this list.

What's funny is Arizona has 12 teams in the national top 200, and Lousiana only has 4!!!

LMAO!!!!!

Lousiana would lose 20 of 25 against Arizona minimum.

Utah has almost double (7) the teams in the national top 200 as Louisiana does (4)!!!

Utah has 10 teams in the top 231, and Louisiana only has 5.

Safe to say Utah would win 8/9 games against Louisiana's top 10

Heidelberg? #961 Nationally.

We love MaxPreps down in the Swamps. 🤠🏈🤠

What a joke!

Breaking News:

That's the way high school football is for 99% of teams playing it nationally.

Everybody can't be a St John Bosco, Bishop Gorman, and etc

But, you still should recognize and consider those type teams when you make a Preseason poll.

Yes, please do some research on Pacifica in NOrCal. Teach us about our HSFB please.

Just think how good 4A Louisville is? 🤠🏈🤠

Big Time McCallie almost got that ass spanked by a school with 229 students.

 Stop fucking with these dumbasses, Red!

As this forum has proven there really is no excitement in California or Arizona.
Why should there be?
I already know the deal. 🤠🏈🤠

Top 5 AZ teams vs top 5 LA teams. Who wins?  Honest question

Two year old video of a running back that's bigger than most of his linemen, playing for a team that's had TWO guys sign with D1 schools this decade (one of those guys was Malik Nabors so good for them).

"Athletic" = two kids running under 11.2 in the school's six year history.

Thank you for saving me the trouble of having to waste my time checking this team out. LOL.

What a joke!

The McCallie head coach seemed impressed with the little 2A Mississippi team.
and, I don't think the McCallie head coach was looking at MaxPreps. Dude, was just happy he won!


"And Heidelberg was no slouch. The Oilers won the Class AA state title in Mississippi last year, and they have numerous players who'll eventually play on Saturday, including junior quarterback Chase Craft, who bedeviled the McCallie defense with 44 yards rushing and 231 yards passing, including two TDs through the air

"We knew they were very athletic, very fast," said Bradford. "And you know what they say -- Speed Kills."

But when Heidelberg pulled within 21-18 with 5:44 left in the game, the Blue Tornado also knew how to wrap up the win and keep that speed off the field. Behind an offensive line that Bradford labeled, "The best in the country," last week, McCallie methodically drove the ball down the field, using up the entire 5:44 to secure the win.

"That's McCallie football," said Bradford afterward. "This was a fun game."
