Man, I have to say coming off last year, Snider is too high. I do have hope that can be pretty good, but I need to see it first…

My issue with Sparty is always the same, they lack toughness year in, year out. Punch them in the mouth, they fold. It’s a culture thing there, nothing else. I have some friends with players at South Side, definitely talented, but football is won and lost on the offensive and defensive line. Period. Tell me when they have ever had a good offensive line. No holes for the skill players means nowhere to run. Too many behemoths in the SAC for South Side. When the SAC as we know it disbands, and it will soon, South Side needs to find a conference without the behemoths. Maybe the NECC…

Sparty is too high, I don’t trust this team at all. Every year they flame out. North Side is a paper tiger, I am from the show me state with them. Coaching is bad, no discipline, won’t make it out of a very tough sectional. Carroll is the class of the SAC right now until someone knocks them off. Dwenger is Dwenger, solid team. Northrop is a one year wonder with their best team in school history last year and they got very lucky to beat arguably the worst Snider team in school history in sectionals. Luers lost some key players from last year’s team and that jump to 4A is brutal. Wayne will be bad. South Side has potential I guess, but it will be another long year for them. Concordia won’t win a game in the SAC in their final year in the conference. 1. Carroll 2. Dwenger 3. Snider 4. Homestead 5. North Side 6. Luers 7. Northrop 8. South Side 9. Wayne 10. Concordia

Word is that the offensive line is undersized again which will cause problems. Plenty of skill players, defense should be solid, but it is all about the line. QB options are quick, but passing the ball could be a struggle. Really good running backs, a couple good receivers. I could see a 7-2 season, but I could also see a 3-6 season. First 2 games will tell quite a bit, at Warsaw and East Noble at home, which is the grand opening of the football stadium.

Of course you would take that stance with zero facts to back up your statement. Expect nothing better from you. The other places you named have had multiple, proven incidents where charges were filed, not in this case though so it ruins your narrative

IU football is at the top of the mountain, but staying there is the challenge. They are recruiting at a level never seen in Bloomington and they have conquered the transfer portal like nobody else has. Scary times for the rest of college football…

Just a sign of where IU football is now. 3 years ago, not a chance in Hell!!!

I agree with FT, this insane propping up for North Side is tired and old. That school has done crap to deserve being propped. I don’t care if they have 35 D1 players like Merrillville, until they do something in the playoffs, they are paper tigers.

Your list lost all credibility when you put North Side as a top 10 team in the entire state. Hyperbole at its best, criminal at worst. First, you say they could finish anywhere from 2nd to 6th in the SAC and then you have them in top 10 of the state??!! Make it make sense…

My take on North Side, wake me when sectionals start for them. I don’t see them getting out of that sectional.

As always, discipline will be their downfall along with poor line play…

Coach, I didn’t take it personal at all. Having been an Indiana fan all my life, almost 60 years, I know the frustration of losing better than most. Been a Cleveland Indians fans, screw the Guardians nickname, so no World Series in my lifetime. Finally, a huge Cleveland Browns as well Never been to a Super Bowl either. I thumped my chest about IU football in the 10+ years of being in this forum with many negative comments. I get it. My daughter is a Purdue graduate and I have rooted for Purdue, except against IU, for a long time. Purdue had been leaderless for a long time and it will take time to get the ship righted. At some point, they will win a Big 10 game and then another and then another. Maybe it will be this year, maybe not. Boiler up!!!

Yawn for everybody

Those Carroll vs. South, Wayne, and Luers matchups will be over by the 3rd quarter…

Coach, I think you said that last year too…😂

Why bet against that? Nostalgia? South and Wayne are competitive in what sports besides boys basketball? One of the problems with the SAC currently is a huge disparity amongst teams.

Never watched it

And most likely will go winless in the Big 10 again…

Disgusting

Hopeful that this is the beginning of a domino effect for the SAC. Wayne and South Side should be next

More crickets?

Is there a more unlikable coach than Kiffin? I think not…

Been hearing that from Irish fans since 1991… just sayin

Teams are making the decision that beating inferior teams means nothing are deciding to challenge themselves. Good decision.

Look at their history 23, what playoff success has Northrop ever had? Don’t think they have ever won a regional title, every other SAC team other than South Side has won sectionals, regionals, and at least gotten to semi-state, most have won state titles.
