Mesa State Professor Publishes "Power Rankings" Has Lightning Ranked 40th and Predicts Rocky Mountain Upset

Mesa State Math Professor Erik Packard (a PhD in Mathematics from Texas Tech University)has created a computer "Power Ranking" system that ranks all 288 high school football teams in Colorado. After week 2 Professor Packard's system has the Legacy Lightning ranked 40th just behind 3A Roosevelt.

Click Here to go to Professor Packard's site. You can see the rankings and input any 2 teams in the state and get a prediction for the game. Things don't look good for the Lightning in Ft. Collins tonight as Professor Packard's computer predicts Rocky Mountain to destroy Legacy 34-14.

Good thing for Coach V and the boys Packard's PhD is only from Texas Tech...
