After games ending Sunday, Dec. 4
NOTE: With the playoffs having ended, this will be the last Colorado weekly ranking of the season.
Valor Christian may play in a smaller classification, but you'll be hard-pressed to find anyone who doesn't think the Eagles are the state's top team. Valor never let up on the gas pedal in a 66-10 thumping of Pine Creek, which was the team's third consecutive state title. In Class 5A, Columbine capped an extraordinary season with a 41-31 win over Lakewood.
