Rankings: Each week, six different sets of rankings come out for Class 3A football….the Radio Iowa sports
broadcasters poll, the Associated Press poll, the Des Moines Register poll, the Iowa Sports Connection poll, the
Iowa Preps-dot-com rankings, and the Brent Moore-ISU scientific rankings. Each week we will compile the
rankings and do a composite ranking, averaging out the rankings by awarding 10 points for a team ranked 1s , 9
points for a 2nd ranked team, and so on. Note that AP does not do a pre-season poll.
