Funny though, the MIC still won 4 sectionals and 2 regionals. Thought the HCC was going to take over as top dog last year? Just 3 years ago Ben Davis did the same against everyone and just 2 years ago Warren Central did the same against everyone. Since that doesn’t fit your narrative though, no need to recognize it, right? The way you act on this forum says you’re either 14 years old and still trying to mature or you’re mid 40’s and never matured. Either way, you get my point.

I like Center Grove in this game, but this has the potential to be a much closer game than most believe - J'Uan Swanson has been a breath of fresh air for the Giants. He has a quick release and has speedy receivers. If Swanson is given time to throw and can make the passes, BD will be able to put some points on the board. The biggest issue in this game is I don't see BD being able to do much in the running game, but BD can't abandon the run, otherwise the CG defense will eat them alive. - CG offense is going to be challenged against a much improved defense and, if the CG passing game can't get yardage, then I believe this has the makings of a 21-17 type of game. That said, if BD can't capitalize on CG's very few weaknesses, then this game winds up 56-21 real fast. Congrats to both teams on their Regional Championship victories!

They had some injuries, but no one out due to COVID. Yes, definitely sarcastic. I agree, just throwing out some sarcasm

Ben Davis makes their 4th appearance in the Semi-State in 5 years. Not bad for a program that is no longer relevant.

This sure didn’t age well...

Ben Davis 14 Carmel 7 Q2 7:22

I’m not sure how this was deceiving as Brownsburg had 7 turnovers. Carmel starting QB is out for this one as well. Ben Davis is a different team than early and mid-season. Should be a dandy of a game.

On the Indiana High School Football Fans Facebook page, according to the Merrillville fans, they have 17. They left most starters home for the Chatard game.

If Cathedral wins, they’ll be on the road at Jeffersonville or Castle the following week

This. Right. Here. is why you don't count out Ben Davis or Warren Central in the tournament. Warren, in back-to-back weeks, defeats two of the best teams in Indiana, just after everyone, or most everyone, had written them off. Now, WC is in the Regional, along with Ben Davis. In other news, it's once again a disappointing tournament for the HCC. 1 guaranteed champion in 6A, and that's all they managed.

Wow, really great stat.

1.) Center Grove 7-0: No surprise here as we thought this would be par for the course in 2020 for the Trojans. 2.) Carmel 6-1: Much improved team from early season and they're my pick to come out of Sectional 5. 3.) Ben Davis, Lawrence North, North Central 4-3: BD still manages a way to be in the top half of the conference with a big win over NC tonight. LN finishes in the top half for the first time since 2005 when they places 2nd in conference. Great job by the Cats. NC goes 6-3 in the regular season and will certainly be in the thick to win Sectional 7. 6.) Warren Central 2-5: Rough go around for the Warriors, but they've got better days ahead. 7.) Pike 1-6: Pike is much improved but still can't hang with the best the conference has to offer. 2-0 against the HCC. 8.) Lawrence Central 0-7: It's been a LONG, ROUGH season for the Bears. CG, Carmel, BD, LN win sectionals guaranteeing a MIC team in the south at LOS. CG the clear favorite, though it's always harder to beat a team 2nd time around and LN/BD/Carmel will be extremely prepared. Good luck to all teams in the tournament!

Ben Davis has been slowly getting better this season and I said they’ll make some noise. Just didn’t expect them to be up 28 on North Central, a team that is 6-2 overall. Thought they could win though, so now they have to finish.

ALL. OF. THIS. It’s to the point myself and a number of others are about to leave this forum. DT only has interest in programs with money and his own, insulting thoughts. He has absolutely destroyed this forum.

Actually they do, kids don’t sit on the bench in choir or band. Kids need opportunity. I’m sorry, as an educator, I will disagree with you ALL. DAY. LONG.

You’re right it is for underdeveloped players, but again, we’re about developing student athletes for life and giving them outlets to escape from the real world. In some school districts, home life might be a disaster and football (or any extra-curricular activity) could be what keeps them from being on the streets or in an abusive home situation. It’s not our place to tell that kid they can’t play the sport they love and to “go join show choir.” Thankfully DT isn’t a Coach, otherwise we’d only have 280 schools playing, and if you suck for too long, you’re gone. High school is the last opportunity for these young adults to enjoy organized sports, and if they want to play JV, then are you kidding me that we should deny them that opportunity? Get out of here with that nonsense! Never in my world, but I get it, most people on this board have lived a privileged life and I’m not mad at you, whereas I’ve coached kids living in their parents car in the past. They NEED US!!! They NEED ACTIVITIES!!!

I absolutely don’t like anything about this guy. Constantly thinks he’s better than everyone else, talks down to people. I truly can’t say what I want to say on this board, but if you can imagine it, I’m thinking it.

Please leave. Now we’re insulting show choir as if it’s something for losers.

This is seriously the biggest slap in the face to Warren administration. You’re truly the biggest piece of crap on this board.

If you weren’t so worried about contraction you might know that this isn’t the first time CG has gone 7-0 in the MIC. They went undefeated in 2015 on their way to a state title. Then they went 6-6 the year after.

This sure didn’t age well

Pulling kids off the football field in a city such as Anderson means potentially putting them in the streets. These young men need football and ending the football program could lead to much worse.

Ben Davis 7 Lawrence North 3 HALFTIME Carmel 17 North Central 7 Late 2nd

I agree with these picks. Warren/Pike is very interesting as Pike is playing well, but I think BD/LN is the matchup of the week. I think BD wins, they're playing much better than earlier in the season.
