    A big win by Buchanan over Liberty-Bakersfield shakes up The Fresno Bee football rankings

    By Anthony Galaviz,

    13 days ago

    Talk about a new-look Fresno Bee high school football rankings.

    So much went down in Week 4 that The Bee’s rankings have a different look this week.

    And it started with Buchanan going to Bakersfield and defeating Liberty 14-10.

    At the time, the Bears were No. 20 — but they’ve moved up to No. 10 after the upset victory.

    Liberty drops to No. 11 after being ranked No. 5.

    Other changes include Highland entering the rankings after defeating Kingsburg, which dropped to No. 25.

    Central Valley Christian drops out after its loss to Clovis North.
