Mary G. Montgomery takes over the top spot in SBLive's 7A computer rankings

With South Alabama quarterback commit Jared Hollins leading the way, Mary. G. Montgomery continues to climb.

Hollins passed for 202 yards and three touchdowns to lead MGM to a 45-14 win over Baldwin County on Friday. The victory vaulted the Vikings (6-0) to the top of the latest SBLive Alabama 7A computer rankings

Thompson's loss to Clay-Chalkville dropped the Warriors to No. 7. Central-Phenix City is No. 2 and Dothan is No. 3. 

In the 6A rankings, Clay-Chalkville jumped to No. 1 with the big win over Thompson. Saraland is No. 2 and Helena is No. 3. 

SBLive's computer rankings formula was created using its own linear algebra-based ranking algorithm inspired by the Colley Bias-Free Ranking Method. Colley’s Method was created by Wes Colley, Ph.D., an astrophysicist at the University of Alabama at Huntsville. He devised his algorithm in order to help address the subjectivity and controversy regarding BCS college football selections in the 1990s and early 2000s, using a method that used no subjective variables.
