The First FAIR Rankings of the season are on from Justin Jones at the Carolina Gridiron.com……The FAIR rankings are based on the following criteria.

Fresh start – All teams in a particular class start the season with identical ratings, or none at all.
All games weighted equally – There is no distinction made between conference and non-conference games, and a week one endowment game counts just as much as a week twelve contest.
Ignore non-NCHSAA games – Because the quality of opponents outside the NCHSAA can vary widely and can be difficult to judge, only NCHSAA games will be counted. Any contests against NCISAA or out-of-state opponents will be treated the same as an open date.
Reproducible – The formulas used should be transparent and simple enough that coaches and members of the media can verify the calculations for a particular team.

You’ll see Dudley at #1 in the 3-A’s and Southeast Guilford at #10 and then Eastern Guilford is at #29, Northeast Guilford at #31 and Southwest Guilford at #35 in the 3-A’s….Some big drop-offs as you move around the rankings…..
