I still have to reiterate what I said last week; I think MC is ahead of Andrean. A 27-21 victory over Valpo ( @ Valpo) speaks louder than a 21-7 victory over Munster.

After Valpo - I think Griffith, Chesterton, Hammond Morton, LC could all be shuffled around for 9 and 10.

I just can’t see city beating Andrean. That’s where I stand on that. Maybe just me but I’m not high on city. Maybe they show me something this week. But if they lose I think you drop them all the way out of the 10

1. Crown Point 4-0
2. Merrillville 2-2
3. Hobart 4-0
4. Andrean 3-1
5. Michigan City 3-1
6. Lowell 3-1
7. Wheeler 4-0
8. Griffith 3-1
9. Chesterton 2-2
10. Valpo 1-3
Outside Looking In: Morton 2-2

If I was picking the 10 best TEAMS in NWI, Morton would bump a few teams off the list. But this is a top 10 and I did my rankings based on Record, Strength of Schedule, Results, and a little eye test.

Can definitely make a case for Morton to be on the list. I mean at this point valpo may need to drop out for the first time in a really long time

I was going to put Morton at 10 and Valpo at Outside Looking In but I opted to go with the reverse because in all reality, the loser of Chesterton vs Valpo is dropping out of my top 10. Seeing as Morton will win every game they play the rest of the season and will have a crack at Hobart in week 8, they won't be out of my top 10 for long.

It will be close but my bet is Hobart in week 8. Change my mind.

Morton unless they beat Hobart should t be any higher than 10 at any point the rest of year. Schedule is way to weak.

But Morton has take care of business like they should.


And I mean if Valpo wins I don’t drop Chesterton out I put them at 10..

Somebody correct me if I’m wrong but Andrean has been missing 2 studs since week 2. And they both might be returning this week.

Andrean is faster and more physical. Hobart is slower but more methodical

I think Andrean shuts down Hobart run game. It’s gonna be the niners run game vs Hobart pass game.

I’m leaning Andrean because of Ethan

Stop Pickett and the run game is nullified.
