Why?

Center Grove is and has been a top program for 20 years. This isn't even his first undefeated MIC title.

This game went like the BD/LC Sectional game in 2017. It's a good thing to get a challenge.

That's exactly why you play another game.

I hope for a good game with no injuries.

You act like he hasn't done this before.

Bingo.

Have you seen how hard show choir kids work? You enjoy throwing kids under the bus to advance your own agenda of edginess on the GID page.

Warren's struggles are on the offensive side of the football for sure. They'll get it turned back around.

Actually, it was a principals vote that ultimately murdered the one-class system.

Carmel 28, Warren 14 Center Grove 56, Lawrence North 14 Ben Davis 34, Lawrence Central 21 Pike 27, North Central 24

Because of the financing of Indiana schools, money spent on athletics is not money spent in the classroom or on activities and vice versa.

I'd wager to say there are a lot of young men (and maybe some young women too) who need football to keep them in school. If you take that away from them, you are taking away more than a sport.

Again, I didn't want to start a p/p argument. I know Chatard has a history of excellence, and it's well-earned.

At the risk of starting another argument altogether, Chatard is not a public school...though the parishes that feed Chatard must be chock full of football talent.

They are deserving of the ranking. Dismantling LC was exactly what they were expected to do. Seven touchdowns in the first quarter is more than impressive.

Not sure what that has to do with New Pal. The score you are speaking of, if I am correct, is Warren's 70-27 win over Ben Davis in 2018. Ben Davis is 2-1 vs. Warren since that time including a win when Warren was #1. BD also has a MIC title and a final four appearance. I know you keep forgetting last season occurred. Talent ebbs and flows. Experience plays in the MIC. The 2018 team at BD was largely made up of youngsters or players who had not much in the way of varsity reps the previous years. Warren's 2018 team was one of the best in Indiana since at least 2010 and arguably this century. I know you will chalk this up as me making excuses, but it happens. I'm sure New Pal is dealing with the normal cycle that should normally happen in a school of their size. The days of complete and sustained dominance are over. Very few teams have been immune no matter the class. That's just my two cents, though.

I'm sure it's time for contraction.

Those rules, Caine stressed, apply only to high school athletic events."

Who's coaching the Center Grove Ditkas?

I can't remember if it was in the first half or not, but BD came back to beat Carmel a few years back after being down 24-0 up at Carmel. BD won 28-24 in regulation. Sorry, that game was at BD.

I'll go Ditka 296, Center Grove -3 It'll be a close one there Bob.

From a competitive balance, this is interesting. From a travel perspective, it's not happening.

I doubt the Circle City Conference (a private school Catholic/Jesuit league) would willingly accept teams like Jeff or Harrison (public big outlying schools). Circle City=Indianapolis Conference Indiana is already on life support. I'm not sure how it's still alive, frankly.

Not to my knowledge.
