    Let’s not forget buying the CBA and less than 2 years later they go bankrupt as Thomas deserts them to coach the Pacers.

    There’s no guarantee that the next afternoon would be any better. I would invite you to go into YouTube history and watch the ice bowl NFL championship game of ‘67 I believe. Daytime, below zero actual temp. I also remember a playoff game in Cincinnati about 15 years ago with similar temps.... also a day game. It’s football.

    From what I remember the fans who rode school buses to the game from Carmel didn’t really warm up on the trip home either!

    https://thetimes24-7.com/Content/Sports/Local-Sports/Article/Carmel-s-1st-game-with-Valpo-was-for-a-cold-state-championship/2/2/20074 Ask Dick Dullaghan. He’ll back up every word! And what does Purdue Airport have to do with weather coming off Lake Michigan?

    And there you have. No more Circle City. Screw the city schools. Let’s just call it Bloombusindy.

    CG is definitely the better team but yes Carmel is rolling and it would be a rivalry game. But this can wait another week.

    Can’t believe this is a topic! The climate is milder now than 40-50 years ago! State championship game 1975, Carmel @ Valpo. Temp was low teens and wind chill was -20. Mark Herrmann, who at that time held just about every state passing record, was essentially neutralized by the weather. Final score..... Valpo 14 Carmel 13.

    WTF? Stay in your lane!

    It seems both South Putnam and Covenant Christian were undervalued, yet both of those sectional championship games were arguably the best games of the night. I’m not predicting a winner, but I’m hearing Sput has a heck of a defense. If they can get to the QB it will be difficult for Covenant to score like they have been. Thoughts?
  11. Staxawax
    Of course you meant Evansville Central.

    Deceiving in that Brownsburg was not going to be in a position to win regardless of the turnovers. Carmel was physically better on both sides of the ball and the advance scouting was spot on.
  13. Staxawax
    No

    Sagarin lists Hobart as a 27 point favorite on a neutral field.
  15. Staxawax
    I’d also go with the Hounds. The Brownsburg score of 21-7 is deceiving. It was never that close. Carmel is poised to win the regional and seek revenge on the trouncing CG gave them in week 2. Carmel 35 Ben Davis 14

    Seating capacity will have more to do with availability than anything else. Currently the Colts can have 12,500. I don’t know if that is a number for Colts games or a number for any event in LOS. That number is not going up anytime soon and could possibly go down. LOS and the IHSAA are going to have to get creative in order to maximize availability seating for each game.

    Will you love it still if/when ND football players test positive in a couple of weeks? The coaching staff made no effort to shield the players from the swarm of students. Repeated shots of players and fans hugging and high fiving...... some wearing masks, some not. Personally I was shocked at the lack of crowd control.
  18. Staxawax
    How does that work? I know they don’t offer football scholarships. Are they compensated for school costs in other ways?
  19. Staxawax
    WRT ?
  20. Staxawax
    Yes. And all #2’s with the exception of Indy Lutheran.

    This is obviously a Hollywood movie ala “Remember the Titans” in the making. Rival schools are merged. Fighting at practices (possibly embellished). In fighting amongst coaches (possibly embellished). A blond haired California surfer emerges at QB (definitely embellished). T. C. Williams, aka Elkhart, goes undefeated and ends up in Lucas Oil (definitely embellished)! Elkhart over Merrillville !

    This may be the most “2020” post of the year!

    1. IU is a better team than Michigan, player ratings be damned. 2. When has Cathedral overlooked anyone? 3. What does disrespect have to do with performance? Wouldn’t it only improve it? 4. You already owe me a lunch. Want to go double or nothing? I’ll take the Irish and spot you 13 points.
  24. Staxawax
    Let’s say I agree with your “most physical teams at any level”. In Fisher’s now 16 seasons as head coach they have won 3 sectionals. And who took them out all 3 times in the regional? You guessed it. And none of them were close. How do you justify your claim?
  25. Staxawax
    I absolutely love the fact that St. X’s only losses were to Indiana teams!
