I had a chance to see Clayton play SE Raleigh last week in C-Town. It was a great game. I'm still concerned: if SE's starting QB didn't get hurt in the mid-3rd, could Clayton have come away with the win? Or would it have been a close-margin win since they were tied when he got hurt? But that is history, after going back and watching them beat Gibbons 35-32 last night and seeing Grimsley beat a good Weddington team 13-7, are the reigning state champs (new classification from last year) in jeopardy? I did see them last year against Rolesville, and I was impressed because going into that game, I thought no one could beat the Rolesville Rams team from last year in the entire State of North Carolina till after that game.

It seems that Clayton’s QB carries both their air and ground attack. They will need others to step up to compete with Grimsley.

Grimsley Defense is too much, QB Faison will hit some big plays and do enough to win. Grimsley lost their leading WR. Anybody know his status?

Does that mean weddington should have been like 20th?

No, I think they were in the 50s until they dropped those losses early in the season and the playoff loss.

Providence Day is #21 in America

If Grimsley loses this game they're probably out of the top 50

Grimsley may well win this game comfortably but for them to be nationally ranked is a joke. Let alone 15th! That’s absurd. Do you know how many thousands of schools there are in the entire country?

There are 25 teams in Florida alone that would run the score up on this team.

This grimsley team is clearly very talented. But nationally ranked is just absurd. Who comes up with these rankings?

16,000 football teams in this country and this grimsley team is in the top 0.0006 percent of them?
hough should be ranked top 20 nationally also idk why yall think all these states have so many better schools than nc, nc is top 10 in the country with nfl players. these other states they always send their private schools with recruited talent nationwide to play public schools honestly those schools should have their own ranking system if we being honest because public schools vs public schools nc can compete with anyone in the country

Maxpreps (calpreps) is not a poll or opinion based ranking, its computer algorithm rating system.

If grimsley is in fact a nationally ranked team, then yes there must be 3-4 others in NC that should be nationally ranked. Highly nationally ranked too.

They’re missing their top WR and running back and still winning
