Thanks, brother. Was starting to think there was going to be a positive post on the GID. Nope. Always someone out there to bring negativity. It’s human nature I suppose. Either way, great night, great football game, wrong result. Good luck to the Dragons the rest of the way.

All pre-sale tickets for both New Pal and Cathedral are officially sold out. Getting the gear on now. Let's go Irish!! I believe that is around 8500 tickets total. A tidy, little income for the IHSAA for this game.

Middle class and upper middle class people only drink White Claws and Trulys these days. I'll have a couple cases of Bud heavies, but unfortunately, they are usually the last untouched soldiers in the cooler by post game.

My middle class tailgate will have many, many cocktails flowing in the New Palestine lot. If only we were friends....

Rumor is this is the same officiating crew that did the Cathedral vs Center Grove game. Can anyone confirm? That would seriously affect the Vegas line...

Goheeeeeeeeen! Gonna need a monster performance out of him tomorrow! What a sweet post, Muuuuuuuda. Thought we’d get something more like Cathedral’s uniforms are so good looking from their private school privilege or something similar. The Irish-ofile you are evolving into is making me blush.

The fastest freshmen player we faced this year was Center Grove’s RB. Don’t know his name, but he was a quick white boy. And CG was the best frosh team we played. Round the Corner is the spot! Rumor is that is where Coach Ralph and his coordinators “debrief” after practice nightly. I was told by the bartender last time I was in there they sit right at the end of the bar and strategize. I’ll be rolling in there before 3p to get the party started. I think you’d be late at 4pm. Let’s go Irish!

IHSAA has been doing it for 30 years. In the 90s, it was Chatard, Roncalli, and Cathedral in the same sectional. Most of those years, the sectional winner won the state or at least made it to the championship game. If there is a chance to get the P/Ps in the same sectional, the IHSAA will certainly get it done.

PS. Irish D held a very talented Kenny Tracy and crew from Decatur Central to 30 yards on 28 carries last night!

Probably showing my age here, but the 1990 and 1991 Dwenger teams were your best teams. You were 27-1. Had 12 guys play major college football. 2 in the NFL. Chris Dittoe (IU QB), Euell Wilson, Jason Fabini (NFL), Kevin Carretta (ND LB), Steve Martin, Chad Cagnet, etc. And, to stay in topic, Dwenger beat New Pal in 1990 and Cathedral in 1991 in the State Championship. The 1991 CHS team they beat was absolutely stacked. One of the better State Finals games..

You don’t mention Cathedral’s defense in your remarks, but I think you have to mention that with the offensive stars you pointed out. In my mind, run defense is our biggest strength. 300lb+ Sean Oldham at nose and David Guhl at DT are both excellent linemen. And D1 bound Shiloh Means is a Bob Sanders-esque hammer at free safety. It will definitely be won or lost in the trenches when Nee Pal has the ball. Cathedral has given up most of the points this year through the air. We’ve rarely had a RB run it down our throats. So, it will be great to see if Spegal gets it done. The Irish tailgate will be starting early for this one!! Let’s gooooo.

Chatard -14.5 Don’t understand the rant exactly. If Chatard walks through 3A and Cathedral loses to Decatur on Friday, Cathedral still beat Chatard. Cathedral is a class up while Chatard remains in their original class. A 3A Champ BCHS is still not in the same breath as a reformed 4A (sometimes 6A) Cathedral. So, if this discussion is about size, most of us on this board know that doesn’t matter.

Sectional of death = snoozefest. Chatard wins the staye by 2TDs Every game of the tourney unless a catastrophic injury to Cheek, Daylen, or Sovinski. The D is ugly. Good night, 3A. Can’t believe these guys are still in that division. It’s a joke.

When Muda mentions all his hegemonic hate, he’s thinking DT and no one else. Besides the fact that you aimlessly seek attention from topics by inciting class riots, success factor nonsense, and general bore-ass retreads, you still have a knack for otherwise condescending content for even the smallest of great football schools. Are recruiting visits to Ivys even newsworthy? Pretend like you’ve been there before. Loser.

Chatard 28 Brebeuf 0 Halftime. It’s over.

Mudaaaaaaaaa. Muddddddddddddaaaaa. What would you do without all your P/Ps?!? The unfairness of it all. Can’t we just put the P/Ps in their own division so none of the lowly publics have to deal with all the inequities of the system. The IHSAA needs more equality, Mudaaaa. I, for one, am disgusted. This darn multiplier is just not enough to penalize the imperialistic private/parochials.

Ok Bob. I have .000001 percent knowledge. Gripping the bat a little tight, aren’t you?

I have zero knowledge of the matter, but I would say to give ND the middle finger for taking his commitment for 2 years and then not getting the job done with admittance. No clue on grades, but he’s not an idiot. Maybe they loved a new shiny RB? Either way, ND had him committed. They didn’t get the job done.

But yes, playing prime time with Tirico and Flutie gushingly loving on Indianapolis and Cathedral on national television. We’ll take it. Was his time at Cathedral tenuous? Fairly. Will we claim him on the national stage? Absolutely.

Who would that be?

Hopefully many of you got to see Cathedral’s Markese Stepp have a career day for USC against Notre Dame in South Bend last night. Wow. Defining play where he literally drug 6 Irish defenders 10 yards after contact was one of the better runs in the NCAA this season. 8.2 YPC on 82 yards rushing and a TD. Congrats, Markese. Made Indiana proud last night.

Unfortunately, thanks to our maligned, self serving Archbishop, both schools have been dealing with the fallout of his actions for more than 24 months now. Though we would all like to joke about it, it has pretty much shredded the local Catholic community between the schools (and across the entire Indy Archdiocese). Brebeuf will be entangled with the Vatican for months to come as they search to usurp the Indy Archdiocean scourge with the Jesuits as their advocate. Cathedral will be entangled as a key witness in a major federal discrimination suit that will go to the highest levels of the US federal courts. As for the game, the 2017 upset was Brebeuf’s greatest win ever in my opinion. A perfectly coached game by Coach Roessler had 3 huge punts pinning the Irish inside our own 10 yard line 3 times. Another bold 4th and 2 call from Brebeuf’s own 40 for a TD was game breaker. I hope the boys all remember that game. If so, the Irish should win big.

Could be wrong but it was 35-0 late in the 1st or start of 2nd. I guess if that is the rule, this topic is void. I’m sure there are many, many teams w 35 point halftime leads.

Cathedral - Jeffersonville was running clock in the 1st quarter, I believe. If not, it was first possession of Q2.
