Based on results, Magoffin County is not a top 25 team.
Until Magoffin County -- or for that matter, any 15th Region team -- starts picking up wins against good teams from west of I-75, people aren't going to give them a second look. And rightfully so.
Much the same goes for Belfry. Who exactly has Belfry they beat and how good are those teams? In both cases, the won-loss record by itself is deceptive and pretty much meaningless; that's especially true for Belfry, whose schedule is ranked 85th in the state.
Had Magoffin closed out Iroquois or a not-particularly-impressive NCC squad, you might have a case; those losses, along with those to Paris and Montgomery County, undermine your cause.
Beat somebody important -- preferably several somebodies important, like LexCath, West Carter, Sacred Heart or Scott County (which might be the best girls' team in Kentucky right now). Win the Queen of the Bluegrass.
Respect has to be earned. A nice W-L mark alone doesn't do it.
