first half red zone possession that ended in a FG looks like inside zone from the 7 that #20 bounced outside (but he's so damn fast he got back) to the two.  Then the jet sweep pass to #3 who tried to make very hard cut upfield and his knee went down untouched.  Third down bootleg pass should have been picked off.

off topic of what you are talking about, your son man on man. a STUD to say the least. Kid is fast, hits hard and just knows the game of football. He was dominant on defense, had 1 INT but was a finger tip away from another one in the endzone. But what impressed me even more was his ability to block. To see a secondary defensive player go on the offensive side and make KEY blocks was pretty impressive. The play i remeber the most is him driving Cathedrals OLB to new pal sideland , actually to the track!!!!

@Coach Nowlin, myself, and the entire GID thank you for the $50 donation you will be giving. I always smile when I see people willing to give up easy money.. 

Will not run away from my bet. I am completely shocked with the outcome of the game. Honestly going into halftime with the score 10-7 i felt confident. The game changer in this game was not going for it on NP 3 yard line, missing the field goal, then NP gets the ball at the 25.... i did not know they moved the ball to the 25. NP coaching staff completely out coached Cathedral staff from halftime and on. Embarrassing for cathedral fans. 

Congrats to New Pal and I see no one coming close to beating them this year, with that being said, after this year they will be in the rebuilding process. But who knows maybe they have another 19 year old star that is going to transfer!!! It would  have been a better game if Cathedral was able to play Markese Stepp tonight who is younger than Speigal... lol just kidding. Hats off to the dragons. Hope for games like tonight in the future. Nothing beats Friday Night lights!

New Palestine will win this game because they will control the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball.

lol

You don't need to send spies to practice to get game film.

 

I think New Pal's schedule allows them to run some Cathedral stuff at their kids during practice throughout the season, while Cathedral had to focus on the next game.  Did Ralph tell his team it was a Cathedral session? I don't know.  But, what I do know, is the guy has lost 4 games in his career so he's no dummy.

I would expect him to lose more than 4 games with how weak the schedule is lolololol

Stop it. You don't win 42-13 by accident.  That was an outstanding East team.  I don't give a RIP who was "out". 

that game was a fluke.

I just look for these outlandish comments and make people out there money where there mouth is. 
Like the Roncalli guy that said Cathedral was going to beat Columbus East by 21 and East won by 30 in 2017 😂😂

that game was a fluke. star running back and star lineman was out. 1st time ever they beat cathedral.

He’s 31. Thanks for asking. 

imagine markese stepp playing high school football now....

I'm gonna chime in on this one.  Not my place to give his age or birthday.  But he would be eligible to play any HS sport he wants in accordance with IHSAA rules.  This rumor needs to go away.

was not saying he was 19 or he was 15. Just wanted to figure it out so I could know the truth

I wouldn’t get silly. New Pal has athletes too. They will be well prepared. One thing cathedral has not seen this year is a string physical RB like Spegal. They have seen some very good and fast RB’s but Spegal is not like the TB’s they have seen. They will have to play their best for sure!

talking about spegal... is it true he is 19 and almost 20?.... just the word on the street, not saying it is true or not just wondering lol.

i heard he was not going to be able to run track due to his age qualification.

“Hasn’t seen a team with this many athletes” *New Pal played Center Grove week 2*
 

i really would not say Center Grove is an athletic football team... and if they are to you then okay... 1 game out of many they have played. Cathedral has things new pal has not seen while cathedral has seen everything New Pal has plus more. 

Do not try and argue that.

Which has produced 2 state championships and a runner up in the last 6 years. 

you're right! Congrats to New Pal on their tremendous success! 

At the end of the day it is a new year. 

Everyone in the state wants Cathedral to get beat because who does not hate cathedral? Honestly? People hate greatness. BEST OF LUCK to both teams this friday, as this will go down as the most hyped up game this year. This game kind of reminded me in 2017 when Roncalli had all the hype behind them and went up against cathedral.

That being said New Pal is a better team then roncalli. 
 

I still have a lot of confidence in the Irish this week , New Pal has not seen a team with this many athletes. No doubt about that. 

prediction 

Irish 35

Dragons 21

Quite a few that play both ways.  We have a very physical group.  I don't see it being a big issue.   And I'm not saying we will out physical Cathedral by any stretch.  But don't look for New Pal to wear down, as I don't expect the Irish will either.  I was honestly very surprised that we wore down Center Grove in the 4th quarter.  But then again I'd hate to be a DL or LB and have to tackle Spegal for 4 quarters.  I know its cliche but I very much believe whoever controls the line of scrimmage better wins.  I expect an instant classic. 

i agree. Whoever controls the line wins.

Has that been the ingredient to New Pal's success over the years? Playing the best athletes on both sides of the ball and hoping they are in better physical condition than their opponents? 

well they blow out every team so they do not play much. Easy schedule

$50 bet for the GID? None of you clowns ever take the bet. Somebody put there F****** money where there mouth is.. 

-14 cathedral. ill take you up on it.

Just now, BTF said:

One hundred percent? If you look at Cathedral's games against Brebeuf, Chatard, and Center Grove, isn't safe to say New Pal has a chance? They had one common opponent and New Pal beat them by a wider margin than Cathedral did. Sagarin has this as a 50/50 game. I'm going with New Pal at home. 

That is fine. ill take Cathedral -14 away. GL

I went to this game last night. Cathedral is 100% the team to beat. Their defense is the best in the state by far. Their offense is top notch as well. I could see cathedral running away with this by 21 points or more
