what was worse that one or the 7 OT game with Andrean? 

I don't talk about that game

Yes they do.   They are playing with great confidence and excitement.   They have been to Sectional championship game last 2 years and looking to break through.   

Snider was pretty good

Luers was so talented, but so young in 2009.  

History provides a valuable lesson.  Cass learned through the years that it didn't matter what Luers'  record was coming into the tournament. This one was a heartbreaker. Hard to believe that was 10 years ago

Bombers welcomed back QB Eli Hickman last week as he can be seen all over the Hudl/Maxpreps Game Recap.  Great to see him back as he has been pesky waiting this injury out

I sat right next to this man watching this game

I watched this game but not next to you.

Meant to post this on the Hoosier Conference thread instead of the LC/Pioneer thread.

Hoosier conference sectional champion predictions.  Who all do you think will win or has a chance of winning their sectional.  I am going to take no less than 4 of these below.

1. West Lafayette- Certainly will have a tough Sectional opponent in Chatard

2. Cass-  Tough week one opponent but if the Kings can get by Pioneer they should win their sectional

3. Rensselaer- Got Boone Grove, Andrean, North Newton- Will the Bombers be healthy for a long tournament run? I think so!

4. LCC- Knights roll through their sectional

5. Twin Lakes- My long shot... Knox, Calumet the favorites but I actually think the Indians could pull this one out.

6. Tipton- Big second round matchup with Eastbrook might be too much for this young Tipton team.

7. Western- Don't know much about this sectional or the state of Westerns Health but they look as good as any in this sectional

Is this a Challenge? Might be something we could actually win!

We are down a few Heavyweights from previous years.  We may need to recruit a couple Rouch's from North Newton for our squad.

Coaches race 1st

I got Pioneer,  Coach Berry big time finisher on the 4th leg!!!   

There will be great athletes all of the field Friday Night, i would just leave it at that personally.   

Only contest our coaches would win is an eating contest!

Cass is the favorite here and according to everyone on here other than AG and ultimate it isn’t close. Cass split the top votes in 2a poll so coaches think the same thing as well. 

If you beat arguably the top team in 3A you should be the favorite. Cass is right where they want to be at the top so pressures on!

I don't know. Prior to week 1 it was stated by a Pioneer faithful that Cass had lost 5 in a row and the last 4 games by a combined 171-0 and the previous 44-0.  Maybe Cass just played out of their mind the first game.

I know Cass did. 

I don't care what Knox's SOS is. Knox is a solid and well coached team. 

 

Logansport has a tougher SOS then Cass and Pioneer.. Does that mean Cass and Pioneer are worse then Logan? No. 

Knox is very well coached.  John Hendryx should be coach of the year in that conference.  Everywhere he goes he has an immediate impact.  I think though he saw the writing on the wall at Northwestern when he decided to leave a couple years ago as wins are tough enough to come by in the Hoosier Conference even harder when you don't have the jimmies and joes.

The distinction between Cass's tough Schedule (91) and Logansport's (88) is that they beat everyone on their tough Schedule.  So the measure is SOS + Wins. Regardless its all conjecture.

I can remember on many occasions where the Kings have been written off over the years and we pulled off upsets most recently West Lafayette.  Moral of the story is that anything can happen on a Friday night.  I actually consider the Kings the underdog in this one. With Pioneer coming off a state championship.  

Kings proved on Friday that it is tough to beat a team twice especially one that has a lot of pride in it's performance and play.  I am sure Pioneer is none to happy with that one loss they have on their record and will be chomping at the bit to get after the Kings.  Kings need to lock in this week and focus on the task at hand.  Can't reach the next goal unless you win this week. Should be a fun night Friday. Looking forward to this one.

Kings obviously have no chance against the superior panthers

Kings were warriors last night! Congrats!

and I would counter that one of the better crews was Butch Jones ( I know retired now) from Cass County himself.

Plenty of good Lafayette / Kokomo area crews to work that one per se. 

Same in Indy with Chatard/Brebeuf week 1 game 

Avon/Brownsburg is Semi Final round so half the crews are gone anyways 

He is to busy kicking my butt in Fantasy Football

I mean #70 Duvall was NOT on the line of Scrimmage, but still, that man could bring the ruckus 

reminds me a bit of Kitt O'brien when he used to pull and kick.  Dude was a Truck. Ironically Uncle Kelly is on the WL staff.

Back in the day with all my buds.  Half these guys have kids on this years Cass team or in recent years.

sounds like Rondale is Hammy not Knee    

of the 44 guys on Purdue's 2 Deep.  33 are either Freshman, RS Freshman or Sophomores.   That brings the team "team is young" to a whole new level.

Also it would seem that Neal has chosen the BOSA route and will be sitting out the entire year as it seems like he has been healthy enough to play but chosen not to.   I guess those off season 1st round grades he received probably has him thinking that instead of finishing out his career.   

I wondered what was going on with Neal.  I've been to the first 3 games and saw Rondale carted off in front of me in the South end zone he didn't look to have a serious injury.  Sindelar however was nursing that shoulder bad.
