Opps 28 17 would be 11 ....

I like what south has done defensively the last couple of weeks. My prediction Panther d limits NA to 17 points and they win by 9 28-17 .

Looks like bhss hc Gabe Johnson won a sectional title while hc at triton central. I thought this was his first.... while looking at John harrell football bhss schedule , the hc name is highlighted where you can see what schools each hc has coached at.

@ptr . Bloomingmedia strikes again This is Sundays front page ..... Headline reads "north tops south" under the photo it says the final score was 25- 17. Lol

Not sure what a team needs to beat cathedral. Center Grove u guess ir a once in a lifetime team like new pal had a few years back.

Qb and center for Panthers got injured. Bhsn played their best game . I think south should beat na next week but it will most likely be a closer ball game than the 50-20 score south won by week1

Every year ! You really have to have a once in a lifetime team( for most average/good football schools) to beat them unless your a top 5 mic team .

The olineman that went out was their center according to the radio broadcasters. Could make next week really interesting. 🤔

Congrats to bhss hc Gabe Johnson for I believe his 1st sectional title of his head coaching career , as well as former bhss(a long time ago) assistant football coach now new albany hc Steve Cooley on another sectional title I believe he won a few when he coached on ft Wayne harding (school maybe defunct now. I believe this article has his coaching story https://www.courier-journal.com/story/sports/preps/indiana/2017/08/03/new-albanys-steve-cooley-builds-tradition-first-year/451574001/ ) . At any rate I don't know how new albany has progressed this year in the regional title so they must be doing good . Bhss could be without their starting qb who left the sectional title game after the half. Seymour was who I was hoping came out with the w. So now it's another long long drive down south for bhss. Had a thought while at work this past week that bhss goes 9-3 this season after fabricating some parts that wound up strangely aligned 9 and 3 when usually they dont wind up aligned that way my own crystal ball maybe . Obviously that is a regional win and a loss to cathedral at semistate. Doable since south already doubled up new albany in week 1 . @ptrwho you got ?

Yeah South is sort of caught like a deer in headlights they are really off 😳. Keep playing defense and don't turn the ball over and the Panthers should win.

South up 14-7 , sound like a sub par performance for south according to the announcers anyways. North is playing well to stay in this one . Seymour leads new albany the Panthers haven't played Seymour since the early 90s.

@ptr apparently the north running back is out as well as some shift in norths online https://twitter.com/JimGordillo/status/1456749361065496583?t=u_CzBrYCEXmGS1EDUMTKWQ&s=19

I'll say south by 4. Supposedly the ihsaa is wecasting it https://twitter.com/BHSS_Athletics/status/1456633336865112074?t=WcR_Ce2du3hJOz-Ur5nQqg&s=19

Looks like a good place to ask when the next school enrollment class and sectional realignment is due to occur?

Defensively south had the upper hand over the castle o. But the castle d was Solid vs. The Panthers. Nah I didn't make it down....listened to the castle radio broadcasters tho. Sounded like a couple geeks , which is OK sports nerds and geeks are knowledgeable. Anyone know when the sectional realignment and class realignment is scheduled to happen next? Be nice if south didn't have to drive to castle high again for a tourney game

Not sure they dominated castle. The knights had a solid chance to win that game at the end. Castle was great defensively in the red zone also had the punt block for a td.

Yeah so if he doesn't return that makes him and wr matthew griffin an athletic 6 ft. 180 sr. (scored a long td reception Vs. bhsn in week four) that played in the first meeting that won't be playing in the sectional final rematch. Hard to say but I would think bhsn may have improved slightly more than bhss but that's hard to prove. Winning at castle was a mild surprise for South in my opinion. I didn't know what to expect. Unsure if south has any more injuries to note . But those receivers have been key to their offensive production this season. Given the Panthers won by 14 week 4 . And with those losses I would probably have this as a toss up or very very slightly favor bhss maybe 1 point in ot or something. I did read that bhsn's season goal was to win the sectional since they fell short in recent seasons. I wouldn't be surprised if they did just that either.

Well a nice win for South on the road. Had south converted more of those red zone drives into td's would have been nice. Castle d was good in the red zone. South coach mentioned getting td's instead of fg's while in the redzone in the pregame interview. Failed in that respect but still got a w. Last I saw was bhsn 35 e north 24.. looks like a bloomington finale. South will have to convert the redzone trips next week if they expect to win. Bhsn is playing better down the stretch.

Was going to book a campsite in Warrick Co. But they are booked up . It's the last weekend they are open . Wanted the closest site to castle high so I would t have to drive through city traffic late at night. Chances are I'll just catch the radio. The two head coaches played together at indiana state. https://www.courierpress.com/story/sports/2020/10/29/castle-bloomington-south-head-coaches-were-indiana-state-teammates/3753576001/

No doubt the Panthers wheels have fallen off. Not sure if they can turn this around . But the other three teams in this sectional all won their final season game. Granted they werent playing indy chatard who would have beaten them all. That being said the Panthers showed virtually no life in their game with chatard. I wanted to see more enthusiasm. Chatard is a better outfit than most but south is a 5a school that has a few d1 caliber kids and a lot of history there. Should have been a more competitive game. Also I remember last year the pregame article for bhss Castle mentioned that south coach and castles coach had some sort of history. Maybe they played together in high school or college can't remember ill see if I can dig that up.... still think it's odd south is at castle for the tourney game . This is the 5th time they will have met in the tourney . Every game has been at castle . Im debating on driving down.

Latest sectional projection has castle favored over the second place Panthers by 20 percentage points. I think they should be but 20.% seems a tad high. http://scoreboard.homestead.com/football/pix.htm#loaded

I've had it with bloomington media. Pretty sure neither btown school streams. How would i find out which radio station from down yonder will be carrying the game if any?

@TigerFan20 will there be any video stream of the castle bloomington south game from s.west indiana media sources or the school itself that you are aware of?

The thought crossed my mind this afternoon that Columbus north will have 3 full weeks to prepare for their next opponent. Their last reg season game was oct 15th vs terre haute south. They get a bye on top of a bye week and are granted an appearance in the sectional title game vs center Grove most likely . Cn played some tough teams this year Gibson southern cathedral and roncalli. I mean I don't think there is much of a chance but 3 weeks to prep. All that has to happen is cg lose a player or two to injury and play a bad game and for cn to play the best game they have played in years. Very unlikely but the thought did cross my mind ....

Columbus norths last regular season game was Oct 15th. They are slated to play the winner of cg / fc on Nov. 5th. That is three full weeks of preparation. To be honest I think they would need a few years to prepare for cg to win but nothing is impossible..... I've never seen the tourney work that way .
