Temp's 2A Bracket Analysis
scarab527 replied to temptation's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Luers is a contender imo. I could easily see them getting to at least semi-state. -
I didn't see the game but from checking MaxPreps I'm not sure this is accurate unless all Ballentine did was hand the ball off as they didn't record him throwing a pass. Also didn't see Skinner say anything in the Times or Tribune about the situation. For what it's worth, here's Henry's stats so far this season: 140/194 (72.2%), 1469 yards, 18 TD - 2 INT, 120.4 QBR.

I was a believer until last week. Now I'd have to agree with you. -

In chess there are objective 'best moves' based on the game state, etc. This is why a computer can figure that out. They don't do as well with subjectivity. -
Temp’s Top 25 (10/15)

There's times when I'm not sure whether Cody is completely delusional or actually a troll mastermind. And that's when I realize he must be a troll mastermind. -

Sounds good to me -
Any Type of Sectional/Tournament Pick ‘Em?

I'd be down for this and could help grade as well. Unfortunately I can't help with any sort of digitization of the picks. -

Best/Worst Sectional Draws
scarab527 replied to scarab527's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
I think those are a little different because of the groupings of those sectionals. CG and Warren literally couldn't have gotten a bad draw. I was talking more about sectionals where draws can actually impact who ends up winning. -
Oh no, one team isn’t going to get to win the one playoff game they otherwise would have. What an absolute tragedy. How will they ever recover from this great injustice? If all you’re judging is postseason success then even with a qualifier you could say the regular season results don’t matter at the end of the day. Get off the internet and go get a breath of fresh air. You’ve been posting constantly on this thread for days now and clearly you’re very mad lmao. It really isn’t that big of a deal and you better get used to it because the IHSAA doesn’t seem like they’re going to change it anytime soon. Oh no, I had one. Calm down, son. It’ll be alright. Just show me on the doll where the all-in format hurt you.

Best/Worst Sectional Draws
scarab527 replied to scarab527's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Definitely could say that looking at it from their perspective. I was looking at it from the viewpoint that GS is the defending champ and is many people's (including myself) pick to win 3A South. Just felt that the draw had higher stakes for them. Still expect them to get through. -
Honestly the only person I saw saying they could make noise in 3A was DT (rip)

Best/Worst Sectional Draws
scarab527 replied to scarab527's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Fair assessment. I guess I was just looking at it from the perspective that DC will get a less physically taxing game as opposed to Harrison/Plainfield. To your point, Harrison actually getting a competitive game at this point in their season might be good for them as well. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. -
Best/Worst Sectional Draws
scarab527 replied to scarab527's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
DC definitely got the best draw in this sectional getting McCutcheon. In a sectional where 3 of the 4 teams are pretty evenly matched, drawing the weakest team is for sure a positive, similar to North Side getting Anderson while Snider and Dwenger play again. I'm interested to see who will come out of this sectional, as you said it's a lot more open than what people thought at the beginning of the year. To be honest if the two teams are going to have to play each other either way I don't see the difference in round 1 vs sectional championship other than semantics. -
Yep. Now get back to class, son.

We all know the ping pong balls can be fickle, giving certain teams sweetheart draws while giving others seemingly the most-difficult draw possible. I was wondering what everyone thought were some of the best/worst draws for teams throughout the state this year. Here's some I saw: BEST: - Chatard: The Trojans land on the opposite side of the bracket from Oak Hill, Guerin, and Tippecanoe, the three teams with likely the greatest shot at knocking off the Trojans in Sectional 28. Chatard will only have to beat one of them to make it through to the Regional. The Trojans would be favored in every one of these hypothetical games anyway, but avoiding the grind of having to play multiple of these teams is definitely a boon for the Trojans. BEST: - FW North Side: Getting to play Anderson while Snider gets Dwenger again is huge for the Legends. They'll be nice and rested for their rematch with Snider while the Panthers will have to dispatch of Dwenger for the second time in a month. WORST: - Oak Hill/Guerin: Mirroring what I just said about Chatard, both of these teams undoubtedly would've preferred to see the other play Chatard and possibly soften up the Trojans a little bit. Instead they get each other in the first round, and then the winner will get undefeated Tippecanoe Valley in round 2. Just a brutal draw for the teams looking to pull an upset in Sectional 28. WORST: - Gibson Southern: Getting Vincennes round 1 followed by Owen Valley round 2 likely isn't how the Titans would prefer to start their class 3A title defense. They would've had to beat one of these teams no matter what but now they'll have to go through both. WORST: - Carroll/Penn: Tough sectional made tougher by virtue of the draw. I'm guessing if you had to ask which team either of these programs wanted to play round 1 neither would've answered with each other. Whoever gets out of sectional 2 will have earned it. WORST: - Tri-West: Having to play rematches of close games with Danville and WeBo to start the postseason is clearly not the best draw outcome for the Bruins. It won't be easy to get through both of them. WORST: - Andrean: Getting the bye before a rematch with LaVille just doesn't seem to me to be a good thing for the Niners. Chance to lose rhythm during the off week and to come out flat against the Lancers. Coach Skinner even alluded to this in his recent interview with the NWI Times. The Niners have two weeks to prepare for the Lancers, but with LaVille playing Whiting they basically have two weeks of preparation with the added bonus of getting to remain in rhythm and potentially putting new things on tape during their game against the Oilers.
