Ok great topic and here is my top 3 in each Division complete with a breakdown to best of my ability. (All in fun of course. No disrespect intended.)

D1
Bartlesville Blue
Wagoner Black
Haskell
(D1 Breakdown: In terms of level of competition this Division is really up for grabs in my eyes. Every game should be a battle for the most part unless someone steps up and decides to dominate. Bartlesville Blue -The Coaching staff at Bartlesville Blue really love their team and do a good job with them. Their biggest problem last yr was that they had too many kids to really compete under the participation rule. They will be ready this yr. Wagoner Black - Has an absolute STUD at RB in #14. The key to beating them will be to contain him or hope to slow him down which is no easy task. Claremore Red - had an EPIC 1st Rd Playoff game against Owasso Red last yr. They really have some decent speed and I would think they have improved. Haskell - has another absolute STUD at the RB position  #13 and it translates over to the defensive side of the ball as well ( Really is the kind of player that can win games single handedly at this age if he gets out in open space). This team has as good a shot as any to win the Division. They also have a few other nice kids. I bet they would give most of this age group fits this yr. SS Gold - we played twice last yr and I am sure they have continued to improve. Hilldale Black - is steadily improving. Not the exact same team from last yr and got a new Coaching staff. They are working the kinks out and should compete.Catoosa Black -We get to matchup against Catoosa Black this wknd.I should know more about them after that but, from what I have seen they are both also capable of playing for the top spot in this Division. Berryhill Gold - Looks ready to line up and compete. I have seen very little of them. Sapulpa Blue - is the team I know least about out of all of these teams. With that being said I say competition wise this every team in this Division is pretty close right now and there is absolutely a chance for someone to step up and run away. Who wants it more is the question.
PRESEASON PICK TO WIN DIVISION :
BARTLESVILLE BLUE

D2
Hilldale Red
SS Black
BK Red
 
Hilldale Red nothing to see there. Just a homer pick. SS Black - I have personally seen those boys play 3 times over the last yr. Their little back (can't think of the number is quick, shifty, & tough as nails. Absolutely expect them to give us all we want and more. Watched 2 EPIC games against Tyaa Blue. 1st game of the season and then a 1 pt loss in the playoffs. BK Red- once again I seen this team play twice. Once against Hilldale Black and once again in the playoffs. They have one kid (lost on the number) big, tall, & athletic. Decent team speed. Seen them hang with Collinsville Red in the 1st round of the playoffs for a half until Collinsville stepped on the gas. Good team. Well coached. Catoosa Green - I am sure they will show up ready to play. Well Coached and I am intrigued by these guys. Bartlesville White - These guys are mostly 1st yr from what I gather. I am sure they will improve as the season goes on. Sapulpa White - We scrimmaged  them last yr and they had a little stud on defense. Didn't get to see much of them this yr yet. Glenpool White - Tough little guys from what I seen. Weren't scared of contact and responded well to coaching. Sequoyah Blue & Verdigris - I know very little about either of these teams outside of scores from last yr. I am sure they will show up ready to compete.
PRESEASON PICK TO WIN D2:
HILLDALE RED (LOVE MY BOYS HOMER PICK)

D3
Collinsville Red
Tyaa Blue
BA Black

D3 Breakdown: D3 from top to bottom gets my Preseason pick for being the toughest Division. The winner of this league comes from the Tyaa Blue/Collinsville Red game.Going in I just think those 2 teams are a step above everyone else. Doesn't mean it couldn't change but, right now that is how I see it. Tyaa Blue - Made it to the title game last yr. These guys are Excellently Coached and have good size to go with their speed. Very interested to see them this yr. Collinsville Red- Gave Hilldale Red their only losses last season in 2 EPIC games. Last game of the season and 2nd Rd of the playoffs. #7 may be the best RB in this entire grade.  He is a difference maker on both sides of the ball. Excellently Coached and not afraid to get physical. I expect them show up hungry this season. BA Black - NMEYERS28 got his wish. I watched a little more BA Black. After watching them make an impressive run in the playoffs they looked pretty good at last week's scrimmages. Maybe they step up and unseat the 1st 2 teams I talked about. It would take some work but, with the right work ethic and mindset anything is possible. Well coached. Pryor Blue - Seen these kids 1st hand at last week's scrimmage. Good team size. Remind me of a team that can be gritty. #7 & #6  both played really well of the defensive side of the ball. Well coached and could make some noise. LC Black - Well coached. #99 is a good ballplayer. This is a team that could make the next step this season. Possible sleeper. Glenpool Blue - Well coached. Kids fight hard. Haven't seen a ton from them but, enough to know they will line up and compete. Berryhill Blue - Another team that could potentially take that next step this yr. Very intriguing.  Well coached. Catoosa White - Good Coaching staff. Love the QB #5. He is tough as nails and really a good little ballplayer. My Preseason Pick to win the Division may come as a surprise to some.
PRESEASON PICK TO WIN D3:
COLLINSVILLE RED
(The winner of D3 will be decided by the outcome of the Collinsville/Tyaa Blue game IMO. Definitely GOTW that week.

D4
Bixby Blue
Tyaa Red
BA Gold

D4 could make an argument as the toughest Divison in 2nd Grade and I wouldn't fight it because they have a legit claim to that title. Bixby Blue - What else would you expect from a Bixby team? Great Coaching, Great Talent. Nice mix of physical play mixed with good size and decent team speed. Their back is shifty and has good speed. Has great vision and cutback ability. Can't think of his number. Then the big kid on the line. Once again lost on a number. I slept on this team last yr until they showed up with an impressive victory over a very good Tyaa White (Red this yr) team. Tyaa Red (Formerly White) - Very well Coached. When I say Tyaa you automatically think great team speed and you would be correct. They beat a very good Collinsville team twice last yr and I know they are chomping at the bit to get another shot at Bixby Blue. The winner of this Division comes down to the winner the Bixby Blue/Tyaa Red game IMO again. BA Gold - Oh Gorilla Gold is my boy. Great Coach and really good with those kids. They made some moves in the draft that helped their team and #6 is a small back with great speed and excellent vision.  These giys may very well pop up and be in contention come seasons end for this Division. Dont be surprised if they end up at the top of the heap. Seen them in person. Do not underestimate them! LC Gold - Excellently coached. Impressive group of kids when they walk on the field. Love their blocking schematics on the offensive line. Do not sleep on them because they could very well step up and compete for this Division. Looking forward to seeing them across the line of scrimmage this Saturday. FT Gibson- Size? Oh they got that! May very well rival Owasso Red for the biggest team in 2nd grade this yr. I know their Coaches personally and they do an excellent job with those boys. Do not expect the same team from last yr. These boys were just dipping their feet in the water. This yr they dive in head first. Expect a challenge everytime the are on the opposing sidelines. Coweta White - Coaching staff does a great job with these boys. #20 is an absolute STUD! I am expecting them to continuously improve throughout the season and possibly upset a team or 2. Skiatook Red - I know these guys will show up and compete. Well coached with a good group of boys. They will definitely compete at a high level this yr. Would not be surprised to hear them in contention for top 3 teams in this Division by seasons end. Owasso Black - Coaching staff does a good job with these boys. Fully expecting them to build upon last season and show up every wknd.
Preseason Pick to win D4:
BIXBY BLUE (As I said I think this could make an argument for toughest division in the Preseason this yr. I say the Division comes down to BixbyBue/Tyaa Red/BA Gold. Reminds me somewhat of our D5 last yr.)

D5
Tyaa Black
Coweta Black
Owasso Red

D5 Breadown: D5 sports last yrs defending champs Tyaa Black who went from being in the toughest division last yr to what in my opinion the 3rd Toughest this yr. That doesn't mean anything for these guys. Tyaa Black - They are the REAL DEAL! Anyone who wants to compare them to any other team is reaching. They may have the best overall team speed in 2nd grade. Excellently coached. You never feel safe when they have the ball no matter how well you are playing defensively.  They lost 1 game last yr to Hilldale Red 20-19 in a game that could have went either way. That game was not over until the final horn went off. Best game I have personally been apart of. In the regular season nobody else got within 2 TD'S of this team. Bixby Red and Tyaa Blue both played them really close in the playoffs. Coweta Black - Good Coaching staff. Nice sized team. #7 (Tank) is more than a handful up front and #33 is a nice back who equally plays well on the defensive side of ball. This team should have another good season this yr. Skiatook Black - Not really sure on this team. I thought Skiatook only had one squad last yr so these guys are a mystery to me. Owasso Red - One of the biggest teams in 1st grade last yr. Seen them scrimmage last week. Nice little back that has a good line blocking for him. They played an absolute classic against Claremore Red last yr in the playoffs. Great Coaching staff. Muskogee Green - My home school from childhood. Always a ton of talent at MHS. We get to see them up close and personal this wknd. Hearing they have a Hilldale transfer now. Very interested to see what these boys do this yr . Collinsville White - Another team I know nothing about. Not sure if Collinsville had to split or what. BA Silver - Really like what I am hearing from their Coaches. Watched them scrimmage our Hilldale Black team. They looked well Coached for a group of 1st yr kids. Looks like they may could make some noise by the end of the yr. Looked good on defense. And this Division has room for whoever to step up and take that #2 spot. Bixby White - Well coached. Has a nice little back. They should compete every week. As I said there is room for someone to step up and challenge for the #2 spot in this division.
Preseason Pick to win D5:
Tyaa Black ( Sorry fellas but, I really like this team. Earned a ton of respect for these boys and their coaching staff after our battle and I have had the chance to chop it up with them a few times in person. Anyone that beats them or even plays them close has my respect and that ain't no lie. If you don't get to play them but, want to see for yourself I am sure they are more than willing to set up a scrimmage with you.

D6
Bixby Red
South Tulsa
BA Platinum

D6 Preseason Breakdown: And finally comes the Division that we all know the least about. Bixby Red - Anybody who played or has played in yrs past knows that Bixby Red always has a good team. Well in our 2nd grade yr that remains the same. We played them last yr. Bixby Red is as good as they get in our age group. Excellent Coaching staff. Great players. Good size and good team speed. Those Roller twins are really good and I believe the other kid I keep thinking of is #7. He is a STUD on defense and the offensive line. These guys buy into the system and that system is one of the best you will see. Once again if you beat these guys or even play them close you can walk away with your head held high. Utmost respect from us. South Tulsa - We ran defense against them at last week's scrimmages.  They are a good sized team and they have the kind of kid that every team needs with a mean streak. Kid moved all over and played very well. Our other Hilldale team played them last yr and from what I know of that game these guys have improved. Well coached. BA Platinum - We played these guys last yr as well. #7 I think it was is a little stud on defense and I know they had a few Kindergartners last yr so I am intrigued to see the team they field this yr. Well coached. Bishop Kelly White & Owasso White- I know very little of these teams.  I expect they will both show up and compete. Norman, Stillwater, & Edmond - If anyone knows ANYTHING about these teams other than the city they hail from PLEASE let the rest of us know lol. These guys may come in and be a bunch of World beaters for all I know. Hard pressed for me to understand how City's of that size can only be bring one team each to this age group. Very very intriguing to me. So no disrespect to those guys but, until we know more I just can't make an accurate statement on them.
PRESEASON PICK TO WIN D6:
BIXBY RED
These guys have the ability to win it all. IMO everyone else in this division is playing for 2nd place. I do not envy the travel schedule of any of these teams. Best of luck to everyone involved. Once again I am just a dumb fat guy who loves football. No disrespect to anyone. Best of luck to everyone and prayers for all these boys safety.

no respect given at all, being you two are  the experts, season has not even started and your both running your mouth as usual! new teams this year, don't under estimate teams that started out strong and struggled at the end based on lost players and illness, #14 should not be your only concern, if that is your only concern , your not seeing the whole picture!!
