Anticipating the week 8 poll to come out on Wednesday and @captainobvious to once again be disappointed 😂. Eastbrook #1 in the state of Indiana regardless of class or he's not happy!

NC 28-21 CG 21-17 Carmel 42-7 LN 35-21

Very well could be. My pick is Mooresville vs Mt. Vernon, but I’ve been wrong before.

I hope you're wrong on this one. A Brownsburg vs CG matchup is what I have been looking forward to this year.

Carmel 35-10 CG 55-21 BD 35-7 NC 28-21

Just curious what teams are up for possible reclassifications next season due to success factor. I saw that Chatard would bump up to 4A with a regional title this year.

28-7 on my picks for the year. Now a 3 way tie for conference champions between DC, Whiteland, and Mooresville. Martinsville (3-4) @ Mooresville (6-1)- Mooresville bounces back. 42-14 Whiteland (6-1) @ Plainfield (4-3)- Whiteland in a close one. 35-28 Guerin Catholic (2-3) @ DC (5-2)- DC 35-14 Franklin (3-4) @ Greenwood (3-4)- 28-27 Franklin Perry has no game scheduled currently Power Rankings Week 7 1. Mooresville 2.Whiteland 3. DC 4. Plainfield 5. Franklin 6. Greenwood 7. Martinsville 8. Perry

With some of your comments on here it almost seems like you're trolling the board. Obviously, that quote was a joke. If Mt. Vernon goes on to win the conference for the next 5 years and continues to attract talent you'll be saying the same thing about them. This all goes back to the basic facts. Parents want their children in a good school system. Having a good coach/team that they can play for is a positive...that most likely is not the root of their decision. At the end of the day you can not control this decision to "block" the students from going to the school if the parents physically move there. You can go to many conferences where the same school wins a majority of the time. That doesn't mean all the other schools still aren't competing. I don't get your logic in wanting contraction of all these schools and conference realignments anytime something isn't going right for some schools. At the end of the day this is HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL and the lessons the kids take from it are more important than most other things they will do in life leading up to turning 18. Just aggravated in your attitude on this board at times. I know I can go read something else. Just my two cents.

Contraction of all the HHC schools besides New Pal is the only answer

Carmel by 10 CG by as many as they want. LN by 3 NC by 28

I would assume Mt. Vernon has gotten some pretty good move ins since Kirschner has taken the HC job. Kids/Parents are always going to go to 1. Good school systems 2. Somewhere they feel they can win/get some college attention (if they're good enough). It's inevitable. I don't think a move from Muncie to Indy is that far fetched of an idea. You seem overly invested in this...

I think it will be a close one. Last week was the trap game, I thought, after coming off a big win vs DC. I wouldn't be surprised to see Whiteland pull one out against them though.

25-6 on my picks for the year. Mooresville (6-0) @ Whiteland (5-1) - Mooresville looks to clinch at least a share (most likely outright) of the Mid-State title this week with Martinsville and Perry being left in the schedule. Mooresville 35-24 Perry (0-6) @ Martinsville (2-4)- Best chance for Perry to get in the win column for the year. Martinsville 28-17 Greenwood (3-3) @ DC (4-2)- DC 35-14 Plainfield (3-3) @ Franklin (3-3)- Should be a tightly contested game that will come down to who turns the ball over less. Plainfield 28-24 Power Rankings Week 6 1. Mooresville 2. DC 3. Whiteland T4. Plainfield T4. Franklin 6. Greenwood 7. Martinsville 8. Perry

IFCA poll didn't seem to think so either. Polls at the end of the day are opinions. Always people who won't be pleased. Eastbrook seems to be about where they belong according to Sagrin ratings. Pioneer 1 is a little out there.

CG doesn't seem to care about enrollment...

Just wanted to get everyone's thoughts on what their potential matchups might be for Thanksgiving weekend after getting a look at teams through the halfway point. 6A: CG vs HSE. CG takes the title this year and probably goes down as one of the best hs football teams the state has ever seen. The north will be a toss up. Honorable Mention: Brownsburg, Merrillville, Westfield and Laff Jeff. 5A: Cathedral vs Valpo. Cathedral also runs away with the title this year. The Cathedral vs CG game at the end of the year has the potential to be a top 25 national matchup. Honorable Mention: DC, Dwenger 4A: Mooresville vs Hobart. Probably the most unpredictable of the different classes. Mooresville state title would be a nice resume booster for one of the best Indiana HS football coaches ever. Honorable mention: Roncalli, Mt. Vernon, East Central, Leo, Evansville Central 3A: Chatard vs Danville. Chatard gets another title. HM: Mishawka Marian, Southridge, West Laff, Lawrenceburg 2A: Not going to speak much on a class I do not know much about. Interested to get the GID's thoughts. 1A: Lutheran v South Adams. Lutheran wins it. HM: South Putnam, Covenant Christian, LCC, Adams Central, North Judson

I only see those ratings separating more as the season progresses. Winner of the north gets the opportunity to not have a gauntlet of the south and to say they've made it to a state championship.

21-6 on my picks for the year. Martinsville vs Whiteland- Whiteland 31-14 DC vs Plainfield- DC 35-21 Greenwood vs Perry- Greenwood 42-7 Franklin vs Mooresville- Could be a trap game for Mooresville coming off a big win vs DC but I will take Mooresville 35-21 Power Rankings Week 6 1.

Looks like UT is 5 games in. Most of TX, MO, NE, AL and OH are 3 games in. TN is same schedule as us 4 games in. Just thought it was pretty cool. There are some Indiana kids putting up insane stats regardless.

19-4 on my picks for the year 4A #2 Mooresville @ 5A #3 DC- Game of the year for conference. Winner should take home at least of a share of the Mid-State. Mooresville will have the advantage up front and DC with have the speed. I'll take Mville 35-31. Plainfield @ Greenwood- Greenwood 28-21 Perry@ Whiteland- Whiteland 42-0 Martinsville @ Franklin- Martinsville 31-24
