Ĺcc's current main competitor/predator w a pedigree is the Kings... then some others rising... not like they were thrown in w Andrean... like they did w Chatard and Dwenger...n b dropped back down to 1A.. Like Chatard like Dwenger... its jus Stupid.... Depends on what programs ur thrown in with.. Lcc will jus compete w whoever is in front of em... and they did well enuff to stay up.... could they hav beat SA or Luth again... mayb... mayb not.... The IHSAA ain't gonna do anything anytime soon... it's how they roll..... but they could Gerrymander Sectionals for repeat offenders... that Some peeps want off their streets.... jus not in my back yard..... n on it gose....
When ther were 3 classes this prob didn't exist.... the public numbers buried the PPs ... but That wasn't good enuff..... Peeps want their cake and eat it too......
As Lysander said... putting Chatard w Roncoli pretty much guarantees Chatard will bounce back down... same w Dwenger and Snider..... the idea is.. should the wolves be separated out amongst the sheep ... where they have no natural predator.... then let the SF do its thing till an equlibium is reached.... jus looking at it from wildlife mgmt perspective.... 😄 Think the SF is a failure ... at least w regards to 1A 2A 3A....after that... numbers start to kick in for the publics and ur just left w Cathedral to deal with....
Sec placements are exactly why Dwenger will b moving back down next yr having to deal w Snider... same as Chatard n Roncoli.... unlike LCC who will stay up... having no natural predators in the area....or ... untill some r re introduced.....
Nice win for Carrol!! N almost everyone was dissing Jeff....... Think Mitch Daniel's has billions of $$$ of new investments coming over the next 5-10yrs... All of Tippy Co is on the Rise.....
With that train of thout... never play Black Jack or Roulette.... Yes... it can hit Black.. and jus keep hitting it..over n over.... u pound a winning streak... n take a RR break when it cold.... jus saying....
If I recall... a decision on.. going for it... on 4th down at around midfield was factor in a Linton loss to MD... giving MD a short field which they took advantage of and scored. Will the Miners be mindful of field position this time around??
SAG looks about right now as far as rating teams.... interesting that the recent rating strength vrs the predictive rating has fallen for most all but Luers... could it be indicative of who the State Champ will b?? Rough math looks like this.....
Andrean dropped 6pts... Luers + 3pts ... Liptons - 8.5pts ..Madder Days - 13pts ....Triton flat ... Lcc dropped 3pts
Lcc put up 21pts on WL in the 1st half.. goin tit for tat on scores..... then we're jus shut down in the 2nd half.... that makes me think they hav a shot in this one .... IF... .they can put up 28pts.. n b opportunistic on D..... but then thers Rydel Highs Jefferson to deal with.... idk how they will scheme to slow him dbut..... hope they can keep it close...
