Notes: Big shakeup in the ratings after opening week. Skutt jumps up to 1 based on some likely transfers that may become eligible soon. Remember, I said that the teams in week 1 may not have the same roster later in the year so we'll see who Skutt may add that will help shore up some question marks from the preseason. Elkhorn tumbles to 5th after the Antlers dropped their home opener to Norris after leading 12-0 early. Elkhorn simply must develop a passing threat or teams will continue to stack the line against Aidan Young. Waverly got a nice tune up against new school Elkhorn North and will host the Skyhawks this week. Hastings dropped McCook but you have to be a bit concerned with the Tigers defense after giving up 200 yards rushing to Jacob Gomez Wilson. Even shorthanded with various players out, Bennington more than took care of business in their opener at always tough Northwest. It's a brutal stretch for the Badgers with Aurora, Norris, Skutt over the next three weeks. Ralston enters after taking down Beatrice. The Rams have that experienced offensive front and shifty all-state candidate Rashad Madden at RB. Grand Island Northwest drops out after the loss to Bennington. Aurora isn't penalized for the loss to Class A North Platte but the Huskies must generate more offense than they did last night. York appears much improved and will get a chance to crack the ratings with a win against old rival McCook in 2 weeks.
