PHJIrish Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 This one is scheduled to be played at Arlington and will bring back a lot of memories, some good some not so good, to both sides. It should be a good one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHJIrish Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 A whole day without any conversation about this game? That's unusual. Can't wait to see what has been done to Arlington's field! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FWfootball10 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Watched some the Elder Cathedral game on a stream. Cathedral looked very good and probably should’ve won the game. Looking at Chatard’s scores they look like the real deal as well. Gonna go with cathedral 21-14 though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndianaWrestlingGuy1 Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 Tailgate starts at 5:30p. Come one, come all. Also, big week for the Irish and Trojans in the NFL. Everyone must know it’s Cathedral - Chatard week. Terry McLaurin goes for 125 yards and a TD in his first NFL game last Sunday and Nick Martin gets a $33mm extension for the Texans! https://www.chron.com/sports/texans/article/Texans-Nick-Martin-3-year-33-million-extension-14428438.php Muda - where are you now with the hegemony whines?!?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndianaWrestlingGuy1 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Looks like Cheek is the real deal at QB for the Trojans. His dad and uncles were some of the most amazing grade school players I’ve ever seen at St. Luke in the late 80s/early 90s. Uncle Matt Cheek was the shiftiest, meanest RB/OLB in the entire CYO circa 1987-89. At least 3 of the 4 boys switched to soccer in their high school days. Matt took Cathedral to her first Final 4 in soccer in 1991. Kyle’s dad, Scott, was late in his high school career when the family moved to Indy from North Carolina. Kyle’s grandma, Donna, worked as a religion teacher at Cathedral for a few years. I am super happy to see a Cheek on the gridiron late in his high school career! In my opinion, it was always their place. Go Irish! Can’t wait for the game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHJIrish Posted September 13, 2019 Author Share Posted September 13, 2019 It's gameday and this one is always special. I'm really tired of the trip to Cincinnati too. We get to make that trip again next week but first things first. One thing I'm sure of, the Irish players will give a better effort this year. You can count on that!

Trojan88 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Well - that is one way to look at it, I suppose. My take was that it was not a lack of effort, but more of how good Chatard was last year. There was talk that the rain impacted the outcome and I would agree. If the rain was not there last year, then I suspect Chatard would have won by a couple TD's...at least. This is a new year. I expect a great match up and great effort from both teams. Should be a close one, but I'm a homer - so I predict Chatard to be victorious and make it 2 in a row 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhpatriot04 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 With family on both sides of this rivalry, I'll pull for our 3A brethren. Irish luck can be traced to Hamilton County. What happened to that working class private school? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IndianaWrestlingGuy1 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 It was Archbishop Charles Thompson Bobblehead night at Arlington tonight. Thank God he didn’t expel anyone from either high school for their sexuality. Could be really been detrimental to this amazing game if he was as egocentric and self promoting as he was with all the witch-hunt. #22 Sowinski was great tonight. He moves the chains. Chatard D nutted up tonight though. Shutting down the Irish O inside the Red Zone 3 times in the first half. Irish score only 3 points. Kept the game close. Great game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHJIrish Posted September 14, 2019 Author Share Posted September 14, 2019 It was a gift from God for the Irish tonight. Except for a about 3 minutes of the 2nd half, Chatard seemed to control the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball. It took a couple of long plays from the Irish to pull this one out. IMO, Bishop Chatard solidified their place as the #1 team in 3A. They played a very good Irish team toe to toe BTW, Cathedral won the game 31-21. The officiating in the game was, well strange! That's the only word that comes to mind. They turned this game into a 3 hour affair with they multiple conferences and a flag on just about every other play. I'm not sure that either team had an advantage, although Trojan fans may disagree. The game is being replayed on Channel 40 now and they are just starting the 2nd half.

PHJIrish Posted September 14, 2019 Author Share Posted September 14, 2019 I should add that it was really nice to be back at Arlington tonight! The field held up quite well. I've been told that this could be the start of more games at this venue. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lysander Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 (edited) Congrats to the Irish. It was a hard fought game played at a high level and they never gave up. Neither team did....it was a big play game (had to be since neither team was allowed to develop any rhythm). Got to give credit to Peeble’s call for the onside kick. Ballsy move intended to be a dagger. I think Coach L must have called in the pitch-toss (last seen on a milk carton noting it’s disappearance since 2009) that went awry at the beginning of the 3rd Q. Cathedral deserved the win - let there be no doubt but I really would have liked to have seen the game without all the flags against both teams (apparently Chatard has a phantom lineman who jumped offsides about 6 times). I don’t think any football fan would have been disappointed about the action on the field - really wild game. BTW, it was really cool to be at Arlington again. edit - agree with PBJ’s use of the word “strange” regarding the officiating. One official actually had to have a leg cramp treated.....surprised he didn’t get it in his throwing arm...

One of the officials forgot to pick up his flag after a late game call and one of the players had to hand it to him. I sure hope they had plenty of Oxi-Clean at home to clean up that laundry.😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tango Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Folks down in this part of the state will be very interested in the result of the Chatard v. Southport game. I expect Chatard will win by several TDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I see anyone in 3A taking them down. Sadly, it appears the IHSAA has turned a potential state championship game into a sectional match-up between West Lafayette and Chatard. I will say winner of Sectional 28 will be favored to take 3A, probably beating Gibson Southern in the title game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
