Pioneer's AD John Bingaman announced that, due to issues with the audio during the New Haven game, the Caston game will be streamed for free.

Pioneer 58 Caston 0. 

Knox 35 North Judson 20. 

Bremen 49 Triton 0. 

Culver 52 WC 12

 

I have no idea what to expect from LaVille. Doyle being out hurts them quite a bit. Its their first game too. 

Winamac must hold onto ball (had some fumble issues but recovered them) and their line has to continue to get better. Olds, Schultz and Podell have good exp. Kiefer has exp... Roudebush and Day played a lot last year but struggled some and this will be their first test this year. Schwartz's first ol start was last week and did fine. 

I like your predictions. I think that LaVille wins by a couple of TDs, but they might have issues with conditioning, injuries, ball control, and etc with it being their first game that might swing the game in Winamac's favor. 

Pioneer wins BIG

Knox has been underwhelming so far this season.

Bremen is really good and shouldn't have any issues with Triton.

WC is struggling a lot.

The IHSAA Champions Network and some schools are charging for the livestream feeds due to fan restrictions. Three forum members have posted comments referencing the purpose of the fan restrictions. Should their comments be taken to the OOB as well or just comments questioning the validity of fan restrictions.

You're really stretching it now. Take your conspiracy theories to the OOB forum. 

Hopefully Purdue didn't already build a temple for student sacrifice. Any idea where they could place it? I kid.

Really? I mean I pay $10 for a family of 4 to watch. Im saving money. Not counting the fact im not buying food or anything at the game or gas to drive there. Dont know why you wouldn't do it if you were willing to go to the game.

My biggest issue is that I work every other Friday night, often until around 9 PM. I would catch the game as much as I could at work and then watch the rest if it still wasn't over. My other issue is that I paid a $5 monthly subscription fee to RTC for access to the Pioneer game. I then still didn't have any access and the PPV company wanted me to pay an additional $10.50. I normally watch by myself from home or work, because my wife and kids have limited interest, and I have for a few years now, all for free. I also live an hour South of Pioneer and I never make away games outside of Cass every other year, due to the majority of the away games being 2 hours drives and blowouts. I listened to the game on the radio instead, although a few away games won't even be broadcasted this year, probably due to a lack of social distancing.

What irks me is that I was able to watch the Winamac and Caston games for free. I understand that Pioneer brings in a lot of viewers and that it will help the athletic department, but from what I've been told, the PPV feed didn't even have sound for a large portion, if not all, of the game. Also the camera work is often shoddy at best, as anyone can attest to who has ever watched very many webcasts. It's great as a free or $5 or less product, but I'm not paying $10. 

Go Panthers! This is a game that will be talked about for decades to come.

Thanks for calling Pioneer Goliath!

I just took two from the poll that I know aren't exactly neigbhbors.

 

How does Tipton-Linton grab you?

Sounds like a great game. A Pioneer-Linton rematch sounds good to me as well.

I think Pioneer has a heck of a chance in this game!

I know another poster said that it's a lose-lose game, but Pioneer definitely has the chance to answer the "what-if" in this game and I'm sure that the Pioneer boys, staff, and administration are absolutely chomping at the bit to play this game against the metaphorical giant.

So if Pioneer gets an A+, does Chesterton get an F?

Under the present circumstances, no. At least Chesterton is scheduling a powerhouse, even if they have a small enrollment. I'd give them a C probably. 

Just now, Whiting89 said:

This is the first game that came to mind for me as well. It’s a lose lose situation for both teams other than Chesterton might play some younger players. Both teams getting nothing out of this game imo

I see it as a great opportunity for Pioneer to gauge where they're at, but injuries are a concern as Pioneer only has 32 or 33 on the roster this year due to a very small freshman class. Too bad Pioneer doesn't still have Kiser and Co. from a few years ago. 

Pioneer plays 4A New Haven in week 3. I see that as a more winnable game for them, but still a challenge.

Didn't see another post for this. 

Warren05 - 6 

Every other poster - 0

Pioneer will play 4A New Haven at home in week 3.

Pioneer is a "2A" school with a sub 300 1A enrollment that rescheduled a 6A school that they have zero familiarity with. They get an A+. Chesterton has seven times the enrollment of Pioneer.

Does anyone know what formation Chesterton runs on offense and defense? All that I've heard is that they have a pretty good QB.

Pioneer is open week 3.

Is everything still sponsored by the Bob-O-Link?  Its been 15 years or so since we went to Royal Center....

Unfortunately the Bob-O-Link is closed now and is for sale. Bob Shanks has decided to sell his three restaurants and retire.

Caston ends their losing streak beating West Central 38-6. 

Southwood stunned Knox 28-26.

Pioneer pounded Cass 44-0.

Peru beat Logansport 25-20.

Is that Bare Naked Ladies?  They are a pretty good group.  Never seen any naked ladies on here before.  Apparently that is only shared with the people who donate $1,000.  

If I had a million dollars I would donate it to the GID.

I wish that Pioneer could have scheduled Tipton instead of Chesterton.

Please do not make posts personal when they needn't be. This is a warning. We have a forum where politics can be discussed widely, please use that and not this platform that is intended for sports talk. I know the issue is sensitive and linked, but in the end, we can't have posts being personal or aggressive. If you want to call me a Karen or a Nancy, come meet me in the parking lot behind the mosque near my apartment in northern Iraq. With transfers, you should be able to make it within 15 hours.

So he can't say that but you can threaten him with "meet me in the parking lot?" That isn't a good look for this forum at all.

My mom took a test, said it was nothing bad. 

That tells me that it was the nurse who administered the test to my wife.

The test I had wasn't too invasive.  I think I've had Flonase hurt more. 

My wife and I both had a test a while back. It kind of sucked but I've had worse. My wife, on the other hand, did not handle it well. The test caused her to have a sore in her nose that lasted for weeks, plus the nurse treated her like a child when she slightly flinched due to the pain.
