Curious to know what other people are thinking so far for the season.

1. North Star (8) 6-0 146 (Waiting to see how they do against some competitive teams)
2. Park River-FL (4) 6-0 143 (Extremely well balanced team with the six seniors)
3. Shiloh Christian (2) 5-0 126 (Won a close game against Ryan. Is Ryan coming around after their 1st game?)
4. Carrington 7-0 118 ???
5. Kindred (2) 4-0 80 ???
6. Our Redeemer's 4-0 78 ???
7. LaMoure-LM 6-0 70 (Very hard working team, but can't match up against the taller teams)
8. Langdon/Edmore/Munich 5-1 44 (A good team, but maybe ranked higher than they should)
9. Grant County 6-0 40
10. Watford City 4-0 19
Others Receiving Votes: Richland (2-1), New Town (4-1), Bishop Ryan (3-1), Powers Lake (4-0), Rugby (5-1).

Close losses though. Their average margin of defeat in their 5 losses is just over 15 ppg.

Honestly, DT is 70th in my latest ranking (SD Pts-style formula)...so I'm a little shocked on their votes received this week

Tough schedule, but losses weren't that close and the WW loss is a bad one. One person out west must think they are still a top 10 team.

The most points a loss is worth is 39 (to really good teams...based on winning%)...so if you consider that their 3 losses were to solid teams it doesn't hurt their average too much...especially if their wins are against high win % teams as well. MAX points possible is 50 (unless you play a Class A team or higher class Out-of-State team).

Bishop Ryan's Losses:
Park River-FL (8-0)
Shiloh Christian (6-0)
North Star (9-0)

Bishop Ryan's Wins (3 of which are Top 20 teams in this ranking):
Rugby (8-1)
New Town (7-1)
Watford City (4-2)
Westhope-Newburg (5-3)

I'm assuming the 3 individuals that gave Kindred three 1st place votes also gave Oak Grove some pretty high votes. I do not feel Oak Grove is a top 6 team. Take them out of the top 10 and Kindred has no quality wins. There are a few honorable mention teams that I feel could easily compete with Oak Grove. Polls would be more interesting if the individuals voting had to explain their reasoning.

Kindred also beat Barnesville, MN 67-58 on the road...Barnesville is 10-2 on the season playing in MN Class AA and their only other loss is to #1AA Roseau, MN 74-68. That right there is a quality win for Kindred.

Kindred also returned much of their team from last year's 19-4 season (Region runners up to FCT)

Oak Grove is riding high on an incredible win streak while beating some quality teams along the way:
Richland (6-3; just beat #8 LaMoure and gave L/E/M all they could handle)
Medina/PB (7-4; losses to Carrington x2, LaMoure & OG)
Thompson (7-4; young but formidable team...near top of R2 but still well below PRFL; OG played flat this game)
Shiloh Christian (6-2; defending state champs and ranked #3 at time of win; forced 32 TOs and hit 11 3's)

**Of those 4 wins....3 were on neutral courts or on the road (Richland was home game)

That's more like! This is the stuff I like to see. I like to hear how the other teams progress throughout the season because you sure don't see it any other place. I did see them play Thompson and I agree they did look flat.

Thanks to KMAV.com we can enjoy RPI & SOS rankings also to give an idea of team's seasons too.

I feel that sometimes the RPI and SOS numbers raise more questions. For example, Minot Ryan is #1 in RPI. Their 3 losses were to the top 3 teams which is understandable, yet North Star has a low strength of schedule, so how do you really know they are a quality team without being tested? Does the RPI take into consideration the weekly media polls? It will be interesting to see how the rest of the season plays out with these numbers.

If you can't look at North Star's results and tell they are a quality team you have blinders on.

When has PR actually been "tested" this year?

Never said they weren't, but they do have a low strength of schedule which drops them down. A team like Minot Ryan gets more credit for losing to North Star than NS gets credit for their wins. I'm not slamming North Star, just trying to create conversation from the numbers. To answer your question, PRFL gets tested in every game, some more than others.
