Man against mathematics. Here is this week's look at how the Ohio High School Football Associated Press State Football Polls and the MaxPreps Ohio High School Football Computer Rankings compare.
The AP poll is chosen weekly by a statewide media vote. The MP Computer Rankings are created from a
proprietary equation that factors items such as quality wins and strength of schedule.
