1. Cheverus (2-0) (Last week: 2)

Eight quarters without giving up a touchdown to start the season. Not bad.

2. Thornton (2-0) (3)

Let’s see: Thornton beats South Portland, 47-6. South Portland beats Bonny Eagle, 21-14. I can do that math.

3. Bonny Eagle (1-1) (1)

Don’t read too much into that loss, yet. Sometimes reigning state champions take advantage of an early-season wakeup call.

4. Brunswick 2-0 (4)

You can’t diminish the Dragons’ early regular-season schedule, either. Not after Brewer beat Cony.

5. Windham 2-0 (5)

Eagles might not have that Bangor or Cheverus mystique, in some minds, but recent Class A title tradition says otherwise.

6. Marshwood 2-0 (6)

Hawks’ potent offense gets the headlines, but they’re the only team in Maine to play two games without surrendering a point.

7. Bangor 2-0 (7)

Dane Johnson might rush for 3,000 yards at this rate.

8. Lawrence 2-0 (-)

Back-to-back building years for the Bulldogs? Guess again.

9. South Portland 1-1 (-)

You knock off No. 1, you get some love the next week. Simple as that.

10. York 2-0 (8)

Wildcats struggled with Kennebunk after Rams lost at Fryeburg. Won’t get away with such a hiccup against for-real Falmouth.
