And in that case, lets just put SR ahead of MD....

Oh and SR in front of GS.....

Just giving my opinion that for THIS SEASON, I think GS would beat Memorial.  Guess we will never know and its a shame...

They’ve said the same thing for the last 3 years.

And from 12-15, GS beat Memorial(they didnt play in 15, but GS would have won), so whats your point?  I'm talking about this year, not the last 10 years.

About time we got this poll, even if two teams records were reported incorrectly!  I think this year, GS may have been able to take on Memorial and get the W.  Toss up i'd say, but I still like the Titans in that matchup.  

HH 35-24

SR 49-14

OC 42-9

FP 35-17

TC 27-14

Southport 35-28

After two weeks are we really putting much stock in the SAG ratings? I mean, I love the Raiders as much as anyone, but 24th in the state? Let's get real.... 

Also, SR has had plenty of post season success. I think they will be just fine playing small school and scheduling 4 others. HH and GS will be two of the 4.

GS will formally announce schedule next week (hopefully).  Significant upgrades on the way.

Any sneak peak you would like to share?

Hey 04, if you had to take a guess what 9 teams will HH play next season?

Even thought the Raiders have more often than not been on the wrong side of this battle, I hate  to see this rivalry end.  Lots of great games, and some bad ones too.  But one thing was for sure, both team benefited financially from this game and i think SR found out real quick what works and what doesn't.  Hopefully the Raiders can bring the GP trophy home!

Linton is a very formidable opponent, and a good program to start the season with the past few seasons. Both teams would like to have a few plays back from this one. Stat line of the game.....TO's. Not sure the total, but fumbles really hurt LS tonight. SR had their own on the goal line as well. Linton will need to work on the shotgun snap ALOT going forward. Lots of sacks for the Raiders as a result of awful snaps. Raiders will look to get healthy as a few key Raiders were hobbling around, but not injured, mainly minor issues it seemed. Need to be at full strength next week for the Goal Post trophy!

I really hate that SR will not be playing Jasper after this season.  Yes, they have given us our whoopings, but it has taught our team alot about where the holes are at and what works early on in the season.  Outside of that, its a rivalry game that everyone can be excited about and a heck of a gate fee that both schools benefit from when being the home team.  I would have liked them to join the PAC, but understand why the SIAC was a good fit even if it means more travel.

All this Lewis bashing at Reitz, and meanwhile Hape has been there 6 years and only won 2 sectionals and has gone no further.  Why aren't the Reitz faithful pushing him out yet?

With these scheduling possibilities it looks to me like Coach Hart is not afraid to play a tough schedule. That can only make the program stronger. So you have a 3a school wanting to play 5 and 6a teams and a 4a school wanting to play 2 and 3a schools. Will never make sence to me.

I'm guessing you are talking about Boonville playing 2A teams?  Unless they make it mandatory to schedule to small school  teams, Boonville wont be forced to play any 2A teams.  I'd say they would want to play SR though.

I thought about this the other day...and I’m not up on everything Boonville, but seriously, do they even win the conference in ANY sport?? Softball?? Wrestling ?? Cause we sure as heck know it won’t happen in football...basketball no...baseball nope. 

 

Softball team has made multiple trips to state i believe.  Outside of that, i do not know.  By the way, Boonville beat SR baseball this year, so we probably shouldnt bash their baseball team.....

The Hoosier conference has 10 teams.  You play a 4 game conference schedule and then on week 9 you play against the same team in your standings spot ie. if you are 3rd place in your group of 5, you play the other group of 5 3rd place.

North Central conference has 10 teams and plays a 7 game conference schedule with 2 non-con games.  I believe all the teams have start conference play on week 3.

Northeast Corner has 10 teams, and i really cant tell you how they decide their conference schedule other than they each play 4 conference games.

The Summit(FW) has 10 teams and play a full conference schedule.

Three Rivers has 10 teams and plays 8 conference games.

I hear the PAC is going to Add Boonville, Mt. Vernon, Princeton, and Washington. This would make the conference at 12 teams in football. Not sure how they are going to work this out. I would assume a big and small division with two cross-over games. Also not sure if this is an all-sports deal. ( I would assume it is now all sports) Not really sure what the better teams in the PAC gain out of this. Also, I don't see what Boonville gains by being the only 4A team in the conference full of 3A and 2A teams. I don't see this helping them prepare for sectional 24. 

While they are not 4A opponents, if Boonville played GS, HH, and SR(if they choose to play each other, i'm sure they would be opposite side of the big/small split), thats 3 games for sure that will be challenges and provide measuring sticks for Boonville.  If they would be added and PAC takes all 4, then big/small is almost a guarantee and they can schedule 4 non conference game of their choice.  They will have plenty of challenges if they wish! 

I'll give a fat guys take on the PAC conference hot spots.  I'm only giving one(maybe 2) places for each.
 

Southridge - Gaslight - Good pizza, excellent stroms. Try the Johnny Dart sandwich if you haven't.  Los Dos Charros - grab a burrito before the game, and a margarita after!

Forest Park - Fleigs Cafe.  Locally owned, good food.  Not a ton of seating so show up early!

Gibson Southern - Log Inn. Family style, neat atmosphere, just a few minutes from the school.  COME HUNGRY!  Also, you can hit up Sandy's pizza.  You wont be sorry you did!

North Posey - Red Wagon.  Wide menu selections, and Cajun food.  

Heritage Hills - umm....whats good here???

South Spencer - Angelo's Pizza in Rockport

Tell City - Pourhous. Great menu, try the 2 inch pork chops, and excellent drink menu

Pike Central - No. 423 Smokehouse.  BBQ that melts in your mouth!

Jasper and Vincennes to the SIAC in all sports starting 20-21.

So anymore on this expansion or are we leaving it as SIAC is getting bigger?

The soon to be sophomore at GIbson Southern is Brady Allen. Already holds 4 D1 offers and has visited numerous colleges

 

Gibson Southern returns a lot of the offense including 3 good WRs and a RB who is emerging as both a ball carrier and pass catcher. I’m not entirely sure about the 2020 and 2021 seasons in terms of talent at the other positions but this 2019 season should be a very well oiled machine on offense. Might be a special year with how much talent is on the offense. 

Who are the 4 current offers from?  I know there will be plenty more to come!

Tell City to Linton.  NOT a fun drive.

Obviously no dog in the fight, but it seems intriguing to me....  Boonville, Jasper, Lincoln, GS, HH, Southridge & (MV, PCHS, or NP) in one division would be VERY solid.  

^^^^^That will not happen.....

HH will look to get up and down the floor on offense, while SR will not be afraid to run, but would prefer to slow it down and make HH run a set offense.  SR plays great D, and will hopefully slow down the Pats.  My heart says Raiders pull the upset, my head says Pats by 7.

PAC/Big 8 merger? Just throwing it out there.  I HIGHLY doubt it happens, but i'm just tossing out the idea.
