Next Week's Big Game
The biggest upcoming matchup is between Hilliard Davidson and Grove City as the former is ranked 126th in the state and the latter is ranked 354th. This will be the second home game in a row for Hilliard Davidson. One of the two teams is certain to get a win this week, and we'll find out Monday whether it's it or Grove City.
This Week's Top Game
The highest-ranked contest in the power rankings last week was a somewhat underwhelming showdown between St. Francis de Sales (20th in the state) and Indianapolis Bishop Chatard (16th). St. Francis de Sales had a rough outing against Indianapolis Bishop Chatard, losing 42 - 7. St. Francis de Sales lost a lot of ground in this match: the team forfeited 234 spots in the national rankings.
Banging Down the Door
Independence gave both Briggs and its quarterback a rough time last week. Independence picked up a decisive 'W' against Briggs, finishing up at 56 - 10. No one had a larger role in the success than senior Demontae Taylor, who brought his A game into the contest. He ran for 214 yards and also punched in three touchdowns. Thanks to its success, it cracked into the power rankings and occupies the 20th spot.
Movin on Up
Olentangy will have a better view of things this week after its strong showing last week propelled it 398 spots up the national rankings. That was the biggest rise of the week. It scooted by Dublin Coffman with a score of 31 - 14. Olentangy's offense might have been extra motivated to turn things around after difficulties scoring in its previous game.
