temptation

Man, people cope in interesting ways…

You asked politely and then went off the rails ripping a 3A school by stating your opinions as fact while showing your agenda. “These teams would beat Gibson Southern.” A definitive statement with zero basis in fact. Then get called on it and flip the script attempting to paint yourself as some sort of victim. (And, I’m not as old as you think.)

I’m probably inflating Castle and Lincoln a bit then because they lost to Mater Dei when I had Mater Dei as a fringe top 25 team. With each Mater Dei loss, a win over them loses more luster. I see your point too though. It’s splitting hairs.

“The Nebraska Cornhuskers are paying an additional $15,625 per hour to fire Scott Frost before his buyout dropped on October 1.”

So by “the chosen one” you meant chosen to miss a bowl game? Got it. Frost now available. Any chance CJ Carr can enroll early and start against USC?

Similar to after Merrillville’s loss, I feared for the safety of Cody. @Bobref, you good? Rees will be the fall guy. Gone by Halloween. But he won the social media recruiting summer national championship.

Temp’s hot take…mark the tape…a MAX of 2 more wins for the Hoosiers in 2022.

And Baylor/A&M.

I feel like I know what I’m getting in the SAC with proven programs like Snider and Dwenger. They are in the upper echelon annually in 5A. Always ranked or on the doorstep of being ranked. I then use their margins of victory/defeat to get a feel for the Carroll’s, Homestead’s and North Side’s of the world. As for the SIAC, I don’t know what to think. I’ve had 6 SIAC teams in my honorable mention at some point in the first four weeks and currently have Castle at #38, Vincennes Lincoln at #41 and Evansville Reitz at #44. Seems like a lot of parity this year and I feel Mater Dei, Jasper and Memorial are on the doorstep of honorable mention (51-60 range) currently.

Yes, the top 5 will and should remain unchanged. Bama played about as poorly as they could for three quarters, had 15 penalties for 100 yards and still went into an environment of over 100k and won. We’ve been spoiled. I’m just glad they are human. Gives others hope.

You also have to beat decent teams. Does a 2-2 LN team whose best wins are over the worst MIC/HCC team REALLY deserve to be ranked? (He’d really be pissed if he saw the 1A/2A teams I have honorable mention.)

LOL, “the chosen one” right @Bobref?

Yeah, he’s right. You’re salty.

Kokomo - HM (#36) Power rankings by your definition I guess. I mean Carmel, Warren and LC have two losses and are still near the top. Weird I had to spell that out.

Not sure what you mean. It’s a week to week deal based on results. Sort of throwing darts based on common opponents and box scores.

Where is the BD transfer QB from?

The Temp defines any school within 25 miles of Monument Circle an “Indy area school.”

It’s pretty well known…one of the worst kept secrets. We will see how they do long terms without Elliott and Venables. Gonna go on record today calling them to not make the CFP. You can make it with a game manager at QB if you have an elite D. But DJ isn’t a game manager.

The adults that matter already knew...

But the timing of WHEN OSU/Michigan lose (if in fact both are undefeated heading in) likely prevents this from happening. I think a 12-1 Utah (just an example) on a 12 game winning streak gets in over a second Big Ten team, though I'd love to be wrong. Lots of football left.

I’m not sure I totally agree. Week 1 was huge for the SEC with Florida beating Utah. A two loss Georgia or Bama or a 1 loss Utah?

That’s 2026

Yes, ND’s floor is still 9 wins. 10/11 likely. Only three teams with a pulse left on the schedule. Do I also get 9.5 wins?
