SD Team Rankings: Class 2A, 1A and 1B......

Good things comes to those who wait…..Well wait no further. The South Dakota Team Ranking is here. We are just halfway through the season. So we thought we would give you the old college football BCS treatment. Let’s wait until teams actually play. Let’s see what newcomers will arrive, how teams bounce back from slow starts, freshmen contributions and injuries.

Class AA

Looks like O’G is leading the pack, as they haven’t lost to any teams in the state. Meeting between 1 through 5 are still on the schedule. This should make for a tight race heading into the sweet 16.
