Take the bias out (which may be impossible) but which class will be the most interesting and dramatic to watch to see who wins the state title?

I'd agree with that. Fremont-Mills looks like the team to beat, but East Mills might have something to say about that. MMC brings back enough to be a real challenger, too. And as long as Peppers stays healthy, Exira will have a chance to beat anyone. Springville will be interesting to see; Nissen was great, but I think Cody Blake could have a breakout year now that he'll be the guy getting the bulk of the carries.Originally posted by high90school:
8 Player will be much more interesting than most think. I dont expect Don Bosco to repeat at they lost a lot in Jake Hogan and some other skilled position seniors around him. Rest of the teams at the Dome in that class, only Exira-EHK really returns enough to make another run. Adair was hit hard, Newell too. Field is wide open in that class this year. A lot of good teams and a lot of unknown in teams that are traditionally good.
No, I think you got everyone.Originally posted by PNation:
