@gonzoron the pick 'em king. We all know what his favorite prediction league is though.

Cass at Manchester Maconaquah at Whitko Peru at Northwestern Rochester at Clinton Prairie Southwood at Northfield

Covington @ Fountain Central The Woofs @ Attica Riverton Parkes @ Seegers South Vermillions @ North Vermillions

Week 4 Schedule BNL (2-1, 1-0 HHC) at New Albany (1-2, 0-0 HHC) 5A #5/#6 Floyd Central (3-0, 0-0 HHC) at Seymour (0-3, 0-2 HHC) Jennings County (2-1) at Columbus East (1-2) Kokomo (0-3) at Jeffersonville (1-2)

Castle barely beat North -- North literally fumbled away the win. North barely beat Harrison. Just sayin'

1. Considering the starting QB is one of the better athletes, I'd say it's pretty necessary.. especially with a team that has less than 25 kids on the roster. Put too many inexperienced/jv players on punt you give up punt returns. 2. Definitely a tough call. I did get a chance to watch this game. Their kicker did hit both PAT's previously, but this kick was another 10ish yards deep from a hash. I think they just took a chance with their all-conference QB and failed.

Musta missed that...

Probably not, going camping this weekend. And I don't think it will be close, the Zebras should win easily. And even better at Prairie's field the visitor bleachers face East, so Rochester fans won't get the brunt of the setting sun. If you are looking for good food before the game I recommend the Oasis, on SR39 south in between Frankfort and Antioch. Best BPT in Clinton county.

But everyone isn't Tango. There was a news story about how they were so beaten down due to injuryies last year that this year was going to be a big rebound.

The do that for multiple rivaly games throughout the area. They do the Princeton Gibson Southern game each year.....which is a little more appropriate as they are starving for a win.

Big game at Clinton Prairie Friday night Mr. Muda. Any chance we will see you there? I know you are pretty faithful to Frankfort, but should be a good matchup Friday between the Gophers and Zebras. First possibly only matchup ever between the two. History will be made Friday.

Or "WPPTT Bowl" - The "We Pay Property Taxes Too Bowl", which to me is far better than "The Hunger Bowl" that the Knights of Columbus somehow pushed through a few years ago. Its a great cause (St. Vincent dePaul Food Bank), but goofy name for a football game unless Jennifer Lawrence is there with the game ball...

Mater Dei (+10.5) Reitz Tecumseh (-10.5) Henderson County (+28.5) Southridge (+21.5) South Spencer (+28.5) Tell City (+28.5) Princeton (+28.5) Perry Central Vincennes

Cass at Manchester Maconaquah at Whitko Peru at Northwestern Rochester at Clinton Prairie Southwood at Northfield

I don't remember there being much hype..(?) I kinda expected there would be a some growing pains with a new QB replacing Morgan and losing Bobe at WR. I personally don't think there is a whole lot to take away from the results in the SIAC so far. I would say Reitz is the best. Central has some decent athletes but still has a long way to go. Bosse is going to struggle. Harrison gave North a scare, which is surprising. North coughed up two winnable games. We have a long way to go and need to get some injured guys back to beat anybody good. Haven't seen MD yet. Castle seems down a little from last year. 3 games this week intrigue me: Memorial at Mater Dei Reitz at North Boonville at Central

Peru shocked the conference last week with a win over Cass. Interesting matchups this week. How do you see the conference right now? Who ya got this week? Cass at Manchester Maconaquah at Whitko Peru at Northwestern Rochester at Clinton Prairie Southwood at Northfield

Peru is better than anticipated. Athletes can scoot and the offensive line play is very impressive. I think they rocked Cass early and they just never recovered. Cass is good enough to regroup and have the senior leadership to still be well in conference contention. They are gonna have to probably run the tables though. One loss in conference play this year is not as devastating as years past. Two losses can cause for hitting the panic button.

They’re figuring out how to make better schedules despite travel difficulties.

I'm not defending any one or any team. I just like to put out my musings of WRC football. As an observer, having seen a clip of the hit, it was not blindsided. Unnecessary? Yes. And as I stated, it was flagged on the field as soon as it happened. Furthermore, ejections usually only occur in high school after the second assessed personal foul on a player or Coach. Or if the circumstances warrant an ejection (Ex- Fighting, throwing a punch, late hit, etc.) This particular block, while the result was unfortunate, didn't meet that standard. By two weeks in a row, I'm assuming you're referring to the clip put out on social media of an RP player's hit after the whistle on a kickoff? Some one already stated it was also flagged and the player was ejected. As he should have been, there's no defending that. Hardly a pattern though. To your second point, it wasn't all that long ago that RP was being drilled by the rest of the conference by an average score of 50+ to 0. Like all the other programs around the WRC have experienced, they seem to be the ones with an influx of athletes and are in the upper class of the conference, for now. As with all small school athletics, things often go in cycles. To me it's just simply RP's turn.

In a relative sense, yes. What I mean is that early on in this season, there seems to be a lot of teams that are not as strong as they usually are. For example, I ranked Cincinnati (OH) Anderson at #100 with a blowout loss to Trinity and wins over two Ohio teams. However, a poster on another site whose opinion I really respect was critical of that because he saw the Trinity game and know some folks in the Anderson program. He says the team in not that good and does not deserve a ranking. My response was that they seemed as valid in that spot as any other team not ranked that I could see. So, to answer our question, as I look around the country and have seen Brownsburg (play Rabun Gap), both seemed to substantiate their rankings.

Covington @ Fountain Central - Might end in a tie 0-0 If by 10-15 yards away from the ball carry who was on the sideline and the hit was in the middle of the field I would say you are correct. Obviously @Bear54 and @KDumbwitty are Panthers. It was in every way a blindsided, dirty and illegal hit. If the game was anywhere but RP he would've been ejected. Two weeks in a row of it too... Not all WRC teams are as blessed as the mighty Panthers and have 50+ kids on their roster. Most teams in our conference can't afford to take an athlete off the field because the drop off in talent/strength is too drastic. So what will you guys blame it on when it happens next week? My guess is that you guys are just too good and strong for the WRC. Maybe the WIC or the MIC would be a better fit. Parke Heritage @ Attica - PH wins by as much as they want. Riverton Parke @ Seeger - RP wins by as much as they want. South Vermillion @ North Vermillion - SV by a couple scores.
