npcougar15 Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 While Northwood is the 4A north sacrificial lamb there isn't another school in 4A that can hang with EC and that's been proven on the field all year. With that being said, if their is one school that can make this game interesting/intriguing it's Northwood. Having the talent they do from the wideout positions should be fun to watch in the controlled environment. No way they stop EC's offense to win this game, but if they hit a few plays and spread them out they might be able to score enough to make it a game for a little while. But I can also see EC jumping out to a big lead then the wheels just completely falling off for NW and it turning ugly. The most important play this game might be the coin-toss. If you are Northwood you want the ball first and try like hell to get the first score on the board, playing from behind won't work, too many obstacles to overcome both physical and mental. I think EC is the best team in the state this year regardless of class and would love to see them go against Ben Davis. Kudos to Northwood getting to Indy and but it's unfortunate that they just ran into a complete buzzsaw in LOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's fair to give them that designation with the schedule they play. Sure, the Moeller game was an eye opener. But there's something to be said for the absolute grind that Ben Davis, Brownsburg, and Center Grove go through every year. I currently have East Central at #5. I hope East Central fans don't take that the wrong way as I think it's one hell of a compliment for a 4A program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So essentially it's impossible for a program outside of the MIC to be designated "best in the state". So outside of schedule, why else do you think EC is the 5th best team in the state and not ranked higher? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trojan12 Posted November 19, 2023 Author Share Posted November 19, 2023 EC has played 12 Indiana teams and put a running clock on all 12. They have the number 1 scoring offense in the state and top 3 defense. If this years team doesn't deserve number 1 overall then no team outside of 6a indy schools ever will. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StinkTownClown Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Stinky, Stink, Stink 1.2..-49 Will be more if Jake the Snake decides to let his seniors ride for one last time. Stink says the JV will be in during the 4th and if so, that is the only way Northwood may score. Dirty South - 49 Clean North - 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So outside of schedule, why else do you think EC is the 5th best team in the state and not ranked higher? Why such a weak take? Fans were holding New Pal in the exact same regard back in 2015. I'm sorry, but playing a bunch of 3A and 4A teams, outside of a four loss Moeller team, doesn't propel East Central above Ben Davis, Center Grove, and Brownsburg. It's not gonna happen. You can "think" and "believe" all you want. But no one will ever know the answer. We'll just have to agree to disagree. Why do I think East Central is 5th? I'm using Rodney's patented "this team is better than that one" method. 1. Ben Davis 2. Brownsburg 3. Center Grove 4. Crown Point 5. East Central Not sure why I'm under attack here. Wow. I think that's a compliment to 4A East Central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They literally haven’t beaten anyone other than a 4 loss Moeller team. That schedule is creampuff like. Do I think they can compete with 6A teams? Absolutely. Do I believe they would have run the gauntlet that Ben Davis has ? No. Playing the BD schedule, they are 9-4 or 10-3 honestly.

I honestly know nothing about Harrison (OH). But I do know every other team on their schedule is either 4A or 5A. Everyone else can dub them #1. I stand at #5. I'll say it now. If they beat Northwood by 42+, I'll bump them up. 1 minute ago, Komets2727 said: Agree with you 100%!!! As great as East Central’s season has been, who have they beaten?

Everyone praises New Pal and EC puts a running clock on them and now they're nobody. Harrison(OH) wins 9 games and loses in regional semis and they're no good EC running clocks 2 3a top team teams and now they're no good. The mental gymnastics that some of you try to do is hilarious. 1 hour ago, Olympian06 said: I’ve got BD by 14+ Give me EC and the points. Theresa not a team in Indiana 2 scores better than them.
