Always October at ND (even though this one was a little earlier than usual) and November at SC.

Yes. BTW, they lost to that opponent on their home field. It was just a thought and not going to happen. I'll, HOPEFULLY, be working the first 4 weeks of the tournament, so I wouldn't be able to see it anyway. As a grad of Pioneer, that typically only gets to see them in deep tournament runs, I can't speak with any certainty. My guess is that they don't mind playing at Cass and, if they're healthy, it's probably just as well that they do it in the 1st round.

I can only go by pictures, since I haven't been to Cass in years. It's not going to happen, just thought it would be cool. Personally, I'd like to see all championship games (sect, reg, semi) played on a neutral field. I've seen too many fields that had no business holding a first round game, let alone a championship.

I know why Pioneer would, if they had it. They have twice in the Semi-State.

Wonder how many more would attend if it was the Sectional Championship? Just a thought. Imagine, in 3 weeks, if there was a neutral facility available, halfway between Royal Center and Walton, that could hold a larger crowd. Say the county seat. Sounds like it would be a great night for Cass County football...……... I'll get my donation in...…..…….😁

Lather, Rinse, Repeat...…….

Calumet at Griffith - Postponed on Friday. Saturday was the funeral for the Calumet freshman that passed away. My understanding was the schools asked for a waiver to play on Monday, but was denied.

EC Central @ Hammond Clark PPD until Noon tomorrow.

My age says old school, but I prefer the new school fields. Our crew will be on one of the few grass fields left in The Region. We're not mudders. Rain, rain go away..........

I guess this is what happens when you don't have many compelling games...……... Ultimate, this ones for you:

At the snap, the left guard ran 10 yards down field. He stood there as the pass was being thrown.

Without going thru every detail, the first Laville TD should've been called back........

BJ and HL thought it would've been good from 60. He was definitely a huge difference in the game.

Thank you! This is exactly right. I hold myself accountable. I'm my biggest critic.

If at the halftime break, or anytime following, the score differential is 35 or more, the game clock will run continually, stopping only for scores, time outs, or injuries. The only person to stop the clock during application of the mercy rule is the Referee (White Hat).

Griffith has turf

Can we bring George Carlin back to let us know what constitutes a profanity? Am I going to get a 1 from a coach for flagging him for saying $hit? Maybe I don't hear as much as I should, but I don't think profanity is a huge issue. I'd much rather hear someone say they thought that was a Bull$hit call than to hear "You're cheating us."

I'm good with any Mercy Rule that takes away the need for officials to ask coaches if they want a running clock. You might as well tell me to ask the losing coach if he wants me to punch him in the $@!#%.
