Sagarin has made a significant adjustment to the weighting of the SIAC relative to years past. The following is a chart showing the rankings of the 1st, 2nd, 9th, and 10th ranked teams after games 9 and state. The current season ranking has the SIAC in line with where they have finished in the final rankings after state the past two years. After game 9 Final ranking after state. 2020 80:137:289:308 21:38:213:255 2021 65:83:240:244 25:26:148:150 2022 20:21:163:166 (rankings after game 5)

I thought they jus flew him in for games?? https://youtu.be/BxkbCiCxYj0

Speaking on Penn State, everyone seen their new high profile walk-on Chad Powers?

https://www.tristatehomepage.com/home-team-friday/home-team-friday-off-the-gridiron-9-16-22/ Home Team Friday did an awesome piece on me and the oldest Indiana high school football website, ReitzFootball.com!

@Bobref was seen at the game

One big difference this year is the strength of the middle. I didn't look at it in my chart above. Teams 5-6 are a good deal stronger then year's past. It could be the product of a deep conference or it could just be comparing week 5 to week 9. The middle might weaken out by week 9 this year.

I dont have a roster with me. I can say that all of NorthWood's OL are around 5'11 - 6' and around 230-250, exluding our LT. He is probably around 6' 215. If this thread is still going strong on Friday...i will post their sizes. I know there are not alot of NLC posters on this thread, but I can assure you that NorthWood may have the "smallest" team in the conference. I say that in size, not number of players. I have been involved / following NorthWood for over 20 years and could probably count on two hands how many times they were bigger than their opponets and those teams were probably Jimtown / Bremen / Fairfield (local teams to Nappanee). Im looking forward to watching some of the fellas mentioned in this thread during the postseason as more games get broadcasted by the IHSAA (I know most schools broadcast themselves but im typically at the NorthWood games).

Do you want to borrow my Lou Holtz mask?

Keep in mind HH is 2 plays away from being 5-0 and the most points they have given up is 20. If anyone thinks this is a slam dunk for GS....think again.

Carroll (Flora)

This feels like a late winter/early spring thread. Everyone is getting antsy from being cooped up all winter, HS football has been over for months, the state championship games are all talked out, DT has seven parallel contraction threads and is on his ninth "Screw you guys, I'm going home" tour (Eric Cartman voice), and there is absolutely nothing else to talk about. I kid, I kid. But yeah, can't imagine any truth to this. I have zero insight, but it just doesn't make sense.

Amazing if he earns playing time next year it’s going to be weird seeing Sellers/Scheller/Delong in 2023 knowing in 2013 it was the same lineup just the older brothers haha

Seems to be plenty to post about other games that have occurred in two weeks outside of the 3 teams that have their own thread going. Here is my first entry As Peter Griffin would says........ooooowwwwwww........owwwwwwwww.......ooooowwwwwww........owwwwwwwww.......ooooowwwwwww........owwwwwwwww.......ooooowwwwwww........owwwwwwwww.......ooooowwwwwww........owwwwwwwww.......ooooowwwwwww........owwwwwwwww iykyk 🤣 https://twitter.com/BSSportsbook/status/1572057732936761345?s=20

Miners and Pioneers Light Up Scoreboard in Linton 50-40 Win. In this brief 4-year series between Boonville and Linton, it has been full of excitement with fast pace action, big time hitting, and in some year’s drama. This 2022 game was no different, and in a lot of ways very similar to the Over Time loss 44-42 two years back at Shelton Field in 2020. There is little doubt that Boonville will be glad to see Hunter Gennicks graduate, as he has lit up the Pioneers in his 3 years facing them. Boonville came in after an overtime 13-7 win over North Knox, a game many thought the Pioneers would roll through after beating Heritage Hills the week prior. Linton made their 3rd long road trip, but their first in two weeks after emotionally high wins over Monrovia and Sullivan at the Roy in the last 2 weeks. Could the Miners avoid a slip in intensity facing a team they beat easily in 2021 35-14? The 3-1 Pioneers looked to be excited at the chance to knock of 2A #1 Linton for their first win over the Miners in this series Linton led 3-0. It was a game that produced big numbers. Linton came in averaging 52.2 pig and 443.2 of total offense per game. The Miner Defense had been a bend and not break unit the last two games after excellent showings in weeks 1 and 2. Of course that had something to do with the talent level of Monrovia and Sullivan. Still, Monrovia had 219 rush yards and drove down the field against us. Sullivan had 224 in the air and we held out of the endzone twice inside the Miner 10. In both games the Miners had opened up with big leads early on and could withstand the yardage. Sullivan had pulled to 27-20 but the Miner Offense turned up the jets, and the Defense hunkered down for win #4. One would wonder in a dog fight if the big plays could continue for…as well as against, our Miners. Boonville had proven they could run and throw the ball in game film, and with 6’5 200 Sr QB Clay Conner at the helm of a team that was 6’2” at every position, Linton would indeed be challenged. The Pioneers put themselves in a hole right away with a hold, but a short pass to Sr Carter Wolfe gained 25 to the Miner 41. Another Hold on Boonville pushed them from Linton’s 31 to the 41, and later from the 28 facing 4th and 7, Conner’s Pass to a wide open Marques Ballard at the miner 20 sailed overhead. Pressure was heavy on the QB certainly altering the throw courtesy or Ty Boyd and Wrigley Franklin. Linton would come out firing with runs from both parts of “the Firm” of Hunter & Hunter. Gennicks with 6, Then Johns with 9 up to the Miner 43. Gennicks hit Jess Voigtschild on a 3rd and 8 to convert a 3rd down and cross midfield. Gennicks put Linton at the Boonville 28 on a scramble for 18, then hit Paul Oliver for 18 more into the Red Zone at the 8. 2 plays later Hunter Johns popped in for TD # 9 for the Senior, and Linton was up 6-0 at 5:07 of the 1st. Boonville started from their own 40, and on 3rd and 9 Conner stepped back to find Ballard extremely wide open in stride at the Miner 20. The pass nearly sailed over his head but Ballard made a great leaping catch, keeping his feet and scoring for a 59 yard touchdown pass. Bradyn Cox blocked the PAT and left the score tied 6-6 at 4:41. Linton’s attempt had also failed earlier. Linton looked to answer led by another scramble from Gennicks, this for 21 yards to the Pioneer 40. Penalties both aided and hurt Linton and the Miners got inside the 10. Braden Walters pushed the ball to the 9, but was just overthrown in the back of the endzone on 3rd and goal. This set up a 4th and goal from the 8. Coming into the contest, Linton had been 16 of 17 in the Red Zone, and would have been one better but Logan Webb juggled the pass perhaps trying to get his footing down in the endzone and dropped it to give Boonville a reprieve and the ball. Linton had gone 61 yards in 11 plays to come up empty. The Pioneer offense was also moving the ball well. Conner kept for a 35 yard gain on a 3rd and 4 from their own 14, eluding tacklers and catching Linton asleep on the back side. This play would be used many times successfully through-out the night. Another 3rd and 7 was converted on a pass from Conner to Cooper Aigner, then a Miner offside penalty set up 1st and 5 and the Linton 32. Back to back runs from Reese Wilder pushed to the Linton 23, and Connor repeated the back side play for a slash to the right corner for 6 points and a Boonville lead at 7:35 of the 2nd quarter. This time the PAT was foiled on a bad snap, but it was the 1st time in 2022 that Linton found themselves behind in a ballgame at 12-6. Linton was definitely not on the level of enthusiasm that we had seen in the previous four outings, and were in need of something to jolt them up. It came in the form of #12 Hunter Johns. “Papa” as they call him, took the ball on a tall bounce at the Miner 13 from Josh Biggins. He took a few steps straight down sideline before cutting to the middle where a big hole had been created by the Return team blocking downfield. Hunter put a wicked stiff arm on Ballard at the Miner 40, then out-ran he last Boonville defender 60 yards, a total of 87 to silence the black and gold hometown fans. Big credit goes to the initial blocks from Braydn Cox and Russell Goodman, then to Voigtschild , Michael Auberry and Cody Pigg as Johns cut to the middle. Then is was Jimmie Wright, Linkyn Yarber and Ashton White that sealed off defenders giving Hunter a huge gap to ignite his jets to open field. Of course Colton McKinnon & Eli Scott had to do their part for the play for be successful. And it was much needed. Hunter Gennicks ran in the 2 point conversion and Linton was back up 14-12 15 seconds after falling behind for the first time all year. Things did pick up for the Miner D as they stuffed Wilder for no gain on a 3rd and 1 at the Pioneer 43. Boonville elected to do, and Conner looked to have been stopped short by Christian Shonk and Cox, but a measurement that took a long while for the white hat to call 1st down finally happened. From then on it was meticulous runs by both Wilder and Conner that went double digits per carry to the Miner 12. It would be Wilder who busted through for the final 12 as Boonville marched 689 yards in 10 plays all on the ground save for 9 yards in passing. The Pioneers run for 2 was stopped but Boonville themselves had answered right back at 4:00 in the 2nd with an 18-14 advantage. Then the Miners were caught off guard as Biggins squib kick split through the front line and between the second line and took a huge hop. No Miner got to it before Boonville’s Tyler Rinehart at the Miner 43. Paul Oliver and Hank Gennicks dropped Wolfe for a loss of 3 and Gennicks pressured Conner to scramble where Oliver push him out of bounds forcing a 3rd and 9. This time Conner’s run was thwarted by Gennicks again, and White forcing Boonville to punt which put the Miners at their own 21 with 2:17 before half. It was big that the Defense kept Boonville from expanding their lead and momentum. However, the Miner offense had not been on the field at all in the 2nd quarter. The last offensive play had been at the 0:12 mark of the 1st on the cropped pass in the endzone. It showed. A holding penalty negated a nice run, then two passed for Walters were incomplete and Linton only run 39 seconds off the clock. Oliver booted a 26 yard punt with no return, yet Boonville sat at the Linton 41 with 1:38 yet to run off until halftime. And Boonville struck immediately. They had been able to find open receivers most of the night, and Conner did not miss them. Again it was Marques Ballard the speedy junior who cut inside the defender and found himself wide open at the Miner 33 where Conner drilled the ball. Ballard broke an arm tackle and strode into the end zone easily, and then Conner passed to Wyatt Franz for another 2 points and now the Miners faced serious trouble down 26-14 with 1:29 still left to the break. Perhaps Boonville scored too quickly? Hard to imagine they cared at that point, and honestly Linton had probably played their worst quarter of the year at this point and would be happy to get to the locker-room knowing they’d have the first possession of the 2nd half. Of course, we in Linton know that wasn’t going to happen. And this is where you find out what your team is made up. Linton had not seen much in the way of adversity thus far, although the Miner drive against Sullivan when it was 27-20 was a good sign. However, this was in Boonville, and Boonville’s home base was indeed fired up. On 2nd and 10 Gennicks hit Johns on a swing pass that earned 14 yards, then Johns took a late option pitch another 16 yards to the Boonville 28. It was hard to fathom that as bad as things had been, a miner score would put things in much better light. Linton reached the red zone at the 19 on an Oliver reception, but Boonville Defense stood strong on back to back Gennicks runs. Facing 3rd and 10 Stihl Scott met Gennicks head up at the Line Of Scrimmage leaving a 4th and 4, but in reality with just 8 seconds left, it was 4th and goal from the 8. After time-outs, it was Gennicks to his right keeping the ball and pushing through tacklers for the Miner score! Hunter Johns drew Linton to within 4 at 26-22. Russell Goodman sent the Miners into the half on an even better note as he busted through to sack Conner for a loss of 13 as the horn sounded. It was the type of game many expected. Boonville was showing they had every bit the offense of Linton, and showing that they could expose some areas of concern for Miner Fans. The halftime numbers were an unusual site for Linton as the Pioneers led in total yards 293 to 208, with 154 in the air that accounted for 2 long Pioneer scores. Linton was really saved by the Johns kickoff return TD, and that last scoring drive definitely picking up spirits heading in the half. Again the Time of Possession heavily favored Boonville 14:37 to 9:23 as Linton had the ball just 2:00 of the entire 2nd Quarter. It’s said the first drive of the second half is always one of the most important possessions of a game. This is very true on this night but it looked grim after the 1st two produced 0 yards. Facing a near must-have 3rd and 10, it was the middle screen to Johns that worked earlier, and it worked again for 16 yards to the Pioneer 43. Then a play we’ve been oh so close on all year finally connected; the long ball. It didn’t look pretty as Ballard had a play for Boonville, but Logan Webb stay focused and down 26-14 with 8 seconds to go in the first half to a 28-26 lead just 57 seconds into the 2nd half. The offense had done their job, but what about the defense? Boonville started strong with Wilder getting 11 to move the chains, then 2 plays later for 6 for another 1st down to the Miner 43. Conner hit Aigner for 17 more, then it was Reese Wilder again up the middle for another 20 yards at the Linton 2. 2 plays later Conner got just enough to put the Pioneers back on top with a 9 play 68 yard drive. The lead was 32-28 Boonville with 7:35 in the 3rd. It was beginning to looks as if whomever had the ball last, would win; or, whomever made the first turnover offensively would lose the game. Very much like 2020. Linton began their next drive from their own 23 with Walters gaining 13. 2 plays later Hunter Gennicks busted loose for 30 yards to the Pioneer 30. A Pass Interference call on a downfield pass to Webb moved Linton to the 11. From the 2 Walters culminated the 8 play 74 yard drive on a 2 yard dive at 4:20 to yet again answer the Pioneer score. Gennicks converted the 2 point play for a 36 to 32 lead. The gauntlet laid for the defense to make a stop didn’t help as Boonville would start near mid-field. Once more it was Wilder with back to back runs setting up a 3rd and 1 which Conner converted by just enough at the Miner 40. Miner Linebackers Goodman and Franklin stopped Wilder for no gain, an incompletion left a 3rd and 10. Miner NT Christian got pressure on Conner and Wrigley Franklin leaped to tip the intended screen pass intended for Ballard. This forced the first punt of the night from Boonville’s Ballard who dropped it at the Miner 12 with 1:46 in the 3rd. It was the stop the Miners needed. Linton’s offense had scored on 4 of their 6 possessions, and their last 3 in a row. They would cover 88 yards in the next 8 plays in complete control. Gennicks connected with Webb for 8, then Johns ran for 13 for a 1st down at their own 33. Gennicks ran for 15 to midfield for another chain mover. Boonville’s Stihl Scott and Ethan Parker dropped Jesse Voigtschild for a loss of 7, and on 3rd and 17 Oliver’s catch at the Boonville 43 got 13 of that. On 4th and 3, Linton elected to go and Gennicks popped through and outran everything for a 43 score just into the 4th quarter. Hunter Johns got the 2 point run and you could feel the air come of out the Pioneer balloon as Linton jumped up 44-26 at 10:52 of the final stanza. If the balloon hadn’t burst with that last Linton score, it did as Walter executed a perfect onside kick catching the Pioneers unexpectedly. He ran alongside the kick at it went the 10 required yards, but Boonville’s Elijah Biggins looked to catch the ball at the Pioneer 42, but Walters put a big hit that caused Biggins to lose the ball before securing it, and Russell Goodman wrapped it up on the spot. Still Linton had to convert a 3rd and 3 at the Pioneer 35 with yet another Gennicks run of 10. The play of the drive was a terrific catch from Logan Webb at Boonville’s 9 on a 3rd and 12. Webb had his biggest game of the year and his catch on 3rd and 16 got 9 to the Boonville 5 but left Linton with a 4th and goal. This time it was Hunter Johns who bulled forward to ice the cake. The 2 point pass play was incomplete, but Linton had reached the 50 point plateau for the fifth time in five weeks, and led 50-32 with 6:24 remaining. Boonville was then forced to go to the air game, which had been successful for the most part but Linton was playing the pass and forced three incompletions on plays by Walters, Oliver and Gennicks. Ballard’s punt went out of bounds at the Miner 24. Linton nearly gave the ball away on successive plays as a snap went over Gennicks head but hit the side of Voigtschild who was in motion behind the QB. Conner very nearly fell on it, but Jesse prevailed, although it was a 7 yard loss. The Linton went to the Johns’ middle screen but Pioneer LB Wyatt Franz was right there and the ball bounced off his hands incomplete at the Miner 20. Paul Oliver punted 23 yards giving Boonville the ball at their own 43 with 4:31 still on the clock. Conner connected with Aigner at the Miner 45, but Hayden Feltner and Wrigley Franklin stopped him short of the sticks, then Franklin and Goodman stopped Conner a yard short again. Conner tried to go deep for Ballard at Linton’s 25 but it was incomplete. 4th and 1 saw a big play by Franklin and fellow senior Aiden Giles for a loss of 3 to the disgust of Conner and a turn-over on downs. With 3:19 left in the game, Linton seemed content to run that time off the clock, and punted with 1:59 left. However it appeared Oliver took and extra step executed a rugby style punt and Boonville was able to get to the kick with Parker and Wolfe fell on it at the Miner 31. Conner hit a wide open Nathan Sowder at the 20 before the senior even made his cut. The ball hit him on the numbers and to his credit he caught it, but had clear sailing the final 20 yards to pay dirt. Conner and Aigner combined for 2 point pass ending the scoring at 50-40 with 1:49 to run off. Linton would kneel down the final 3 plays of the game to move on to 5-0 while Boonville fell to 3-2. It was certainly a dogfight. It was certainly good to see Linton answer to the adversity of being down 26-14 late in the 1st half. It was definitely good to see the offense execute when they absolutely had to just to stay in the game and eventually win the game. It was also good to see the Miner defense make plays in the second half that opened the door for the Miners to get some separation on the scoreboard. Not to mention having a Hunter John’s kickoff return, and see a downfield pass connect for a big TD. To anyone present at the game, and certainly those listening, there were still some issue on pass defense that led to three 30+ yard TD Passes, and a couple others that were missed. In the end Conner hit on 12 of 21 for 218 yards, 153 on yards after catch. For the first time this season the opposition had more explosive plays (20+) with 7 to Linton’s 4. Linton still had more big plays over all with 27 plays gaining at least 5 yards to Boonville’s 20. Boonville had more tackles for loss with 7 to Linton’s 3. The Kickoff Return TD, the TD with 8 seconds before the half, the 43 yard TD pass to Webb on the 1st series of 2nd half, the defensive stop forcing a punt late in the 3rd, then the onside kick after Linton had just scored that led to another score were the turning points. As Coach Oliver stated in his post-game interview with me, they are still trying to put kids in the right places, still trying to work out the kinks in a relatively new defense with a lot of guys in different positions, and a lot of starters to replace from 2021. I have to keep telling myself that these are still 15-17 year olds who have to think on their feet and have a lot to digest with decisions that have to be made in the blink of an eye. I need to remember that myself, as well as just watch and NCAA or NFL game on the big screen each weekend because you see blown coverages and confusion at that level just as you do in high school. So as the coaches always say, the regular season is about getting prepared for the post-season, and part of that is the learning process and trying to always get better while addressing the issues that come up during the 9 weeks leading to it. Both teams had 400+ total yards: Linton with 459, Boonville at 409. Both teams were very balanced in their attacks. Led by Hunter Gennicks’ biggest rushing numbers of the year, Linton had 277 on the ground on 51 attempts. Gennicks had 185 yards on 21 carries with 2 scores, giving him 730 yards on the year and 11 rush TDs. Hunter Johns added 65 yards on 13 carries and his 9th and 10th rushing TDs. He is also having a solid year with 451 yards rushing to date. Braden Walters had a score on 8 for 36 while Jesse Voigtschild was the victim of a couple big negative plays and had (-9) on 6 touches. Equally as impressive was the passing game hitting for 182 yards on 13 of 26 passing from Gennicks who threw his 6th TD pass of 2022 while staying at 1 interception. As mentioned Logan Webb had his biggest night of the season with 6 catches and 91 yards and caught his 2nd TD of the year. He was the main target of Gennicks with 10 throws his way. Paul Oliver had 3 catches for 38 yards, Johns 2 for 33, Walters 1-14 and Voigtschild 1 for 6. Boonville’s tandem of Clay Conner (17-92 2TD) and Reece Wilder (16-90 1 TD) were all but 9 yards of the Pioneer total of 191 rushing yards on 37 carries. Carter Wolfe 2-3 and Marques Ballard 2-6 filled the balance. Conner hit on 3 TDs, and 218 yards in the air on 12- of 21 passing. Ballard had a big night with 2 scores on 4 catches for 113 yards. Cooper Aigner had 3 for 32, Wolfe 2 for 31, Sowder 1-31 (td), Parker 1-7 and Wilder 1 for 4. Linton got big play from freshman Russell Goodman. He had 11 tackles, a sack and 2 TFL, plus he returned 3 kickoffs for 48 yards and recovered the on-side kick. Hunter Gennicks had 9 tackles, 6 of those solo. 3 Miners had 7 tackles each-Bradyn Cox, Aiden Giles and Wrigley Franklin. Ashton White had 6, Paul Oliver 5. Boonville got outstanding play from Carter Wolfe with 14 stops and a TFL. Reece Wilder had 11, Cooper Aigner 10, Marques Ballard with 9. Ethan Parker had 2.5 TFL in his 6 total. Linton hits the road again next week at North Daviess where the Cougars have won 4 in a row since losing their opening week to unbeaten Tecumseh. Boonville hits the road to Mt. Vernon to face the Wildcats who are 4-1 themselves. My thoughts are with Pioneer senior Gavin Maxey who had battled back from (2) ACL tears to come back his senior year only to appear to have suffered another knee injury (the other knee) early on in the Linton game. Hopefully it wasn’t as serious as that. Cougar Valley will undoubtedly be rocking with the thoughts of knocking the still #1 2A Miners off their pedestal. Linton has won 13 in a row against ND with the last Cougar win in 2010. It would be great to see Miner Faithful fill the Miner side of the Valley in solid Red for this team to take the field.

Linton could handily beat MD? Interesting…very interesting

To my knowledge, the three high school computer ranking systems widely used are Sagarin, Calpreps and Massey. I thought it would be interesting to point out how each system ranked 812FB this week. I'll put down the top 20ish or so to demonstrate the stark contrast between the three. Sagarin Calpreps Massey East Central 4 1 1 Evansville Reitz 2 3 4 Bloomington South 3 4 3 Gibson Southern 9 2 2 Castle 1 9 6 Columbus North 11 5 5 Linton-Stockton 13 6 7 Evansville Mater Dei 8 15 8 Evansville North 7 12 13 Evansville Memorial 5 19 9 Vincennes Lincoln 6 11 16 Owen Valley 12 8 18 Southridge 18 7 14 Lawrenceburg 14 16 10 Columbus East 15 14 11 Terre Haute South 20 10 12 Northview 15 13 15 South Dearborn 17 18 19 North Decatur 10 21 26 Since the SIAC became a closed conference schedule I have noticed Sagarin might have a algorithm bias to the conference. I understand Sagarin doesn't include out of state schools in the code so I'm wondering if that is the reason for the apparent bias? If you take a look at a school like Gibson Southern or Southridge you'll see the assumed bias I'm pointing out. The other system I find interesting is Calpreps. It looks like that system might have the opposite effect of Sagarin with the SIAC. And Massey claims that his system doesn't do any weighting of conferences, but that might be applied to just college only. Who knows. Regardless the differences, the SIAC closed conference schedule looks to be causing a 'glitch' with the code to these ranking systems. And so that begs the question.... In your opinion, which of these systems is the most accurate?

Yes. The final rankings for SIAC teams prior to 10 teams was consistent with the current alignment. https://web.archive.org/web/20180101000000*/http://sagarin.com/sports/hsfsend.htm

LOL. You think? You saying Linton (who has lost to MD 4 straight years with very solid teams (3 games at home)) could win handily over MD is bolder than me saying Harrison would beat Boonville by 2 scores... But maybe we'll get to see if Linton can end the losing streak to MD this year. They would meet for a trip to LOS, so it would be a great environment at either place. Time will tell if my thoughts about Boonville are off base or not. Believe me there's nothing I'd rather see than them knocking off Reitz or Jasper this year.

Which is to say Sagarin currently has the SIAC ranked inline with where it will be ranked after state. I'm not familiar with how much the tournament shifted the SIAC rankings in Calpreps or Massey in years past.

Adding to my previous post: If the SIAC has similar postseason success as the past two years then the SIAC rankings won't move much during this years tournament.

Luck? Nah, y'all played well. On both sides. Congrats on a great win. Tough fought game.

I know some HH faithful might not be happy about where they stand this season with W-L so far. But what I said is true.....two plays go differently and suddenly this game and HH ratings look totally different to the prognosticators.

They are playing catch up in the rankings because they started so low based on how they performed the past couple seasons and there are 6 other undefeated teams in 4A. Plus a 1 loss EC team that lost to Cincinatti Moeller.

Like Warren Central last year

What’s curious is the rumors were at the VL/Castle game so either some VL fans feel they should be in the PAC or some castle fans don’t think VL belongs in the SIAC. unless there is some other random fan who decided to go to that game instead of their favorite team lol

Also playing in The Jungle. Much more difficult than at The Jewell

Living in Wisconsin, I find out maybe a few hours before the opponent does lol. i do think our sophomore qb is good enough to win the rest of the regular season…but 4 TDs over HH…feel like we need our best 11 guys out there for that to have a chance

I had several issues that all seem to favor the home team. Visiting coach is a guy I’ve had a relationship with, I was honest, and we moved on. He won the game by two scores also helped.

Great album.

Yeah he’s a great guy and I’ve been a fan of his since day one. He’s the first guy there in awhile that I feel truly wants to change the culture. I really like how he hasn’t been afraid to challenge the status quo and bring outsiders in. When you’re known for losing, it doesn’t make much sense to bring insiders in. More often than not, if Jennings County athletics is all they know then they’re just going to come in and continue the losing.

Had a nice conversation with the AD last night. You just root for guys like that.

That was not an option last night. Only when forced to.

Apologies. In that case, an SIAC school will win sectional 24

Then you are in big trouble Donnie!! North Vermillion Covington Seeger South Vermillion I'll dig a little deeper with these picks later in the week. Donnie's comment kinda threw me off a bit.

Concordia at Dwenger....Saints bounce back after a big loss and roll easily...BD by 20 Luers at Northrop...Can the Bruins bounce back after a heartbreaking loss? Think Luers has a little more skill...Knights by 7 North Side at Homestead...best game of the SAC this week which isn't saying too much, great RB matchup...Homestead by 3 Snider at Wayne...Awesome game for Nelson last week...will get the same number of carries but not nearly the same results...Snider by however much they want South Side at Carroll...Bell locked up, now it's time for Carroll to stay healthy and get some depth experience...Carroll by however much they want.

Plymouth of that era and John Glenn aren't exactly like comparing Apples to Apples. John Glenn probably beats Plymouth this year but it's not even close from 2000-2019 (with a few exceptions).

If you are talking all conference sports and not just football, I can't imagine Gibson Southern would want the step up in competition. With the exception of football, girls basketball and softball, they would struggle to be middle of the pack in most everything else. And I mean no disrespect to Gibson Southern in saying that. It's the reality of playing in a conference with larger schools much larger.

As long as the ball does not break the plane of the goal line, it can be advanced by the defense.

Lloyd Sellers is a freshman receiver.

Attica @ NV - Back-to-back losses for the Falcons equals bad news for the Ramblers. The Ramblers have only scored 25 points all year. Running clock. 54-6 Covington @ Rockville - The flying jets sweeps simply don’t have enough offense to keep up with the Trojans. Covington 42-12 in a game I may go watch, sit beside Billy Bettis and take notes. FC @ Seeger - I don’t see how this one is close at all. Seeger’s horses up front on the DL aren’t going to allow FC to run their QB lead and counter as they want. Seeger wins big at home in Herb’s reunion tour stop. 52-14 RP @ SV - tenderloins vs visors. The Panthers are coming off of a big homecoming win over NV without their starting QB. A three game stretch of Seeger, NV and SV ends this week, followed by Attica, PH and Covington. Panthers take this in a close one 22-21 with Coach WRC123 watching from the endzone.

No eastside cake loyalty?

This is great. I don't see Frank around any pregame shows much any more, and that is a real shame.

Gonzo, I played for Coach Wright at Sheridan from 1978-1980, coached there and then had 3 sons who were the starting QBs from 2001-2012. It seems like yesterday but my youngest just had his 10-year recognition. Enjoy the ride while you can. Time marches on.

A friend who is a Cowboys fan says something similar about the TO "catch". Even if he did catch it, there was plenty of time and the defense was not stopping the Packers offense. Next meme. This one may be my favorite yet That is a damn good job of photoshopping

Seriously Tundra, seems to be a different vibe at JC, no idea the inner workings, but there seems to be some good things going on. Hopefully the Panthers are putting the pieces together.

So I win too? Just admit you held Wentz to a different standard because of his vaccination status because he played the most prominent position on the field and therefore was an easy target. Then we can all move on.
