Football rankings

Top 10
No. 10: North Salinas: The Vikings may be 1-4 overall. But they are one of three teams in the TCAL still undefeated.
No. 9: Monte Vista: One of three teams still unbeaten overall, Monte Vista has never started a year 6-0.
No. 8: Alvarez: Head coach Ralph Ward said before the season started that his squad was a playoff caliber team. No one is laughing anymore.
No. 7: Monterey: Unbeaten at home this year, the Toreadores will need a little home magic to slow down North County this week.
No. 6: San Benito: The bye week is coming at a good time for the Balers.
No. 5: Salinas: If Salinas can find a way to win within the Salinas city limits, it's playoff bound.
No. 4: Seaside: The combined records of the two teams Seaside has fallen to this fall is 11-1.
No. 3: Carmel: The Padres are giving up more points this year because opponents are keeping their first units on the field late in games to score off their backups.
No. 2: North County: Despite no offensive stars on this squad, the 6-0 Condors are averaging 53 points a game.
No. 1 Palma: The best defense in the area saw the offense erupt for 31 second half points last week.
