Q Yes. 1 point for each postseason championship won. 6 points in a two year cycle = bump

Yea but our long sleeves are camo

How "big" are the Luers receivers?

If GS lost a 7-on-7 game it could only be due to injuries. Apparently, they simply don't lose when healthy but really suck when it comes to thigh bruises and groin strains

Girls basketball has played the last two seasons. Can't recall any recent match-ups on the boys side.

Finally heard back from someone who attend this game. Turns out we had 2 OL banged up, and our all-conf JV LB missed the 2nd half.

2 things.... #1 - IME, Fort Branch has the worst muffins around. They're musty, dry, and smell like they were baked in a fish tank 🤮. OTOH, Miner City is world renowned for the quality of our muffins. They're always fresh, warm, and moist! #2 - We have no use for Telecom Engineers around these parts. Until we get some rural cell service up here, all Telecom Engineers risk being shot on sight

I as I suspected. Grade A c*ntmuffin

Are you Esso Ayche & Titan32 or do you just randomly answer questions directed towards others?

You coming to the Reitz Bowl Friday? Or does your freshman team have a game?

Injuries are expected this time of year. As are excuses from Gibson Southern after a tournament loss.

Linton hasn't played a clean game all year. We have spurts every game we look unstoppable, but also spurts we look very beatable. Hard to explain. Has to be 4 quarters of our best football next Friday or we don't stand a chance.

Linton 60 Lapel 24 Final

Bluffton @ Luers - Luers wins big. Running clock. 56-7 FWBL LCC @ Andrean - Upset of the week. 28-24 Central Catholic Mater Dei @ Triton Central - Like TC here. Think they control the LOS on both sides & force MD to be one dimensional. 24-14 TC Lapel @ Linton - Lapel's better than their record. Finally healthy and playing their best football. Power run game with Big O line & workhorse RB. Freshman gunslinger at QB. Had they been healthy & played all season as they are now, record would be 9-3, possibly 10-2. Can't ignore the 2.5hr+ bus ride however. Lapel keeps it close early, but if Linton gets up multiple scores I can see this one snowballing late. 42-14 Miners

Cal Preps: 2022- 38 2012- 31 2022- 35 2015- 31 2022- 28 2016- 40 2022- 35 2021- 34 Be interesting to revisit when the season ends

Very well said. Anyone who thinks less of Linton or their postseason chances doesn't understand how dangerous that Sullivan team was nor the Linton/Sullivan rivalry. I get the sense that group isn't always the most consistent when it comes to focus and preparation, but when they're dialed in they're really good. I think ultimately the Miners were the mentally tougher team. I'll also stand by my earlier comments - going into the game, anyone from Linton would've happily taken a 9 point win. And, a focused/motivated Sullivan team would be a handful for any 2A South opponent this season. Bottom line, we beat a very good team twice who's strength was our supposed "weakness". And both times by multiple scores.

Pretty simple. Every metric available - massey, sagarin, cal preps - says Linton's odds of beating LCC > their odds of beating Luers or Andrean. Massey for example, gives Linton a 57% chance to beat LCC, but only 38% against Luers or Andrean. Obviously games are settled on the field, but there's enough data and consistency amongst the rankings to confidently say if they played today, Linton would be solid underdogs against Luers/Andrean but very slight favorites against LCC. As you know, the best team doesn't always win. St. Peter's wasn't better than Kentucky or Purdue last year, but they still knocked off both in the NCAA tourney. Massey's current odds of LCC beating Andrean are 28%, Luers 29%. Simple math tells us massey gives LCC a roughly 8% chance, or 1 in 12, of beating both Luers and Andrean. If LCC & Linton both get to LOS the odds probably settle around 50/50 after accounting for games over the next two weeks.

I think Andrean wins. Hope I'm wrong though. If Linton's fortunate enough to play at LOS and avoid Andrean or Luers I like our chances. Wouldn't mind a rematch with LCC to boot

don't see it this way...certainly don't think MD waxes them...but hope you're right. 🙏

So you're really saying LCC wins this one, but in a roundabout way so you avoid eating crow if they don't. Solid strategy.

This has to be a joke right? A tradition rich program like Reitz decides to cut practice/preparation during sectional semi-final week?? Nah

Most vulnerable to a team with balance that can use the run to set up the pass. I don't think a 2A team will beat us being one dimensional. Corners have struggled letting receivers get behind them, safties are aggressive and like to hit, so over commitment by the safties with corners on an island vs quality receivers is our biggest weakness.

Didn't surprise any of us familiar with both teams. Sullivan's record doesn't do them justice. They have gamers and very skilled, dynamic playmakers. Not to mention their strength is Linton's supposed "weakness". Sullivan compares favorably to Lincoln if that helps. Well coached, dual threat qb, highly skilled playmakers on the outside with a legit WR1. Defense bends, but they fly to the FB, and have opportune playmakers on that side also. Solid special teams. Kicker puts it in the end zone & hit a 40yd fg last night IMO, the arrows would be a handful for any 2A school in the south. Ask Owen Valley. That said, great win by the Miners. Just kept battling. Lot of heart on the Miner's side of the field .

But we already knew that

Exposed? How so??
