Video: Jacob Bodden's highlights vs. Gadsden City
See the Hoover guard in action.
Not even in the MaxPreps south region football computer rankings a few weeks ago, Carol City has risen quickly to the No. 4 ranking this week.
While it's unlikely that Carol City can move past No. 1 IMG Academy or DeMatha, both of which have finished their seasons, the Miami school could finish No. 3 if it wins the Class 6A state championship in Florida and Grayson loses in the Georgia state playoffs.
Should Grayson win the AAAAAAA state championship, it likely finishes No. 2 since its only loss is to IMG Academy.
The regional rankings are based on the MaxPreps National Football Computer Rankings, presented by the Army National Guard. The South region includes teams from Florida, Tennessee, Maryland, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Washington D.C., Kentucky, Arkansas, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and West Virginia.
