lol go back and rewatch that play. the replay shown in the ihsaatv broadcast showed him stepping out of bounds twice while running down the sideline, neither time as a result of contact I have no dog in this fight so don't care either way but your comments are factually incorrect

Ooof, that Pass Interference call was poor, to put it mildly. Nevermind the fact that the WR took multiple steps out of bound running down the sideline

Does anyone know when the overall Mr. Football results are expected to be announced?

Didn't get home until late and haven't had chance to post until now but I was very impressed with Center Grove's support last night. There were a TON of people in red and they were very loud. I'm obviously happy with the result but almost as happy that my interest in Carmel football is graduating as CG has some crazy athletes and I would want no part of them the next few years. Jackson & Steele are going to be ridiculous next season and my jaw dropped when I saw that #91 was just a sophomore. That dude looks like he could be playing on Saturdays right now!

I do realize that. If any part of my previous post was serious I might have already given it a try.

Have you considered deleting your account? That would certainly raise moral and clean up the board as not every thread would be cluttered with the same inane nonsense, thus promoting more participation?

Yes he was the starter at the beginning of the season before getting hurt a few weeks in. The backup was a sophomore but the offense continued to struggle and they went to Williams in the second half against North Central. Carmel absolutely can not afford to abandon their run game, even if they find themselves down a couple of scores. They've shown they can strike through the air but it's predicated on establishing the run in order to open up high percentage throws to the sidelines and down the seam. It's not potent enough to regularly move the ball up and down the field, especially against a D like Center Grove. On top of that they need to control the clock as much as possible to keep CG's backs off the field.

Are the crews working this weekend randomly assigned their games or is it based on merit?

That's the million dollar question. He was surprisingly sharp against Merrillville but in a notably different role than what we saw him in to start the season. He was able to use his legs (and of course the threat of the 3 running backs) to help open some high percentage throws to the flat/outside and challenge the safeties when they crowded the box. Most importantly he took care of the ball, avoided silly mistakes, and kept them from getting behind the down/distance which is when that offense really struggles. That said, Merrillville is most certainly not Center Grove. Some of the things that came relatively easy Friday (by virtue of Carmel's OL controlling the line of scrimmage) won't be such a given this weekend. If Williams is out again it certainly hurts their chances and the O is a little less dynamic as that's one less big play threat on the field . The OL and running game will have to carry even more of the load and make more than a few plays. If that doesn't work and Quigley is is forced to throw the ball 20+ times it's going to be a long night.

No but they're will to share custody so CG would get Wednesday night's and every other weekend

these same rehashed arguments, which are already taking place in multiple other threads, are so lame and boring so I'm going to post this because it's even slightly game related

What in God's name do MIC fans have to be butthurt about?

This is quite the take considering the other 5 matchups

It's interesting just how closely these teams mirror each other. I have to think that anyone picking Carmel in this one is doing so for the same exact reasons you listed above. Even their seasons have had very similar trajectories.

@Ryan11p this is a wellness check. Tough night.
