Howard County Football Power Rankings: Week 2

Well, that didn’t take long. Any hopes of the power rankings holding up throughout the season have already been dashed. It wasn’t exactly a Buster-Douglas-knocking-out-Mike Tyson-type upset, though. It was then-No. 10 Mt. Hebron shutting out then-No. 9 Oakland Mills, 26-0. All of the other rankings held up, though I have a funny feeling that the No. 5-7 spots could be in for a shakeup in the coming weeks.
