Indian72 Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Hard to believe in 5 weeks half the teams in the state will be done with football.

johnny U Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Central over Saint Joseph- it will be interesting when Central plays Mishawaka and Penn. Knox over Glenn- Knox recently has had great regular season success. Marian over Jimtown- Marian in the drivers seat to win the NIC south. New Prairie over Mishawaka - I'd had hate to see what NP would have done in the NSC with this team. Penn over Adams- should we start a thread for who the next Adams coach will be? Bremen over Clay- Bremen is no Hammond Riley over Washington-should be close between two 3-1 teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurfToe Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Alright Indian. How did I miss the new thread!!! Central takes this one easy Glenn over Knox...who has Knox played Winamac/North Judson and Rochester...Lets keep it in the NIC... Marian focuses on Jimtowns one dimensional offense and takes it 49-7 NP over Mishawaka NP by 3 scores Penn over Adams. Adams has no D and Penn has no Offense. CLAY keeps this one tight. Who am I Kidding. Bremen 28 Clay 7 Riley over Washington. Washingtons pass defense is sketchy and full of holes. Washington finally faces a team with a decent defensive line and line backer core. Look for the cats not to be caught napping on another 70 plus yard screen play. Let the banter begin..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indian72 Posted September 16, 2019 Author Share Posted September 16, 2019 I was curious as to what people think - Is this New Prairie team as good or better then the one that made it to Lucas Oil? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcoach Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Central Wins Id like to see Glenn pull this out.... Glenn is the biggest school on Knox schedule. Marian starts slow offensively but rolls in the end NP over Mishawaka Adams is 0-7 going into Washington that makes Penn the winner. I like Bremen over Clay. Riley is strong up front, Edison and the boys win over Washington and they also when the Chick-Fil-A challenge currently going on. *I’ll wait for the Adams thread!!!

The last half of their schedule will show if they have what it takes to make a state title run. It’s going to be a really good tune up for the playoffs.

His sons are getting older so who knows if he wants to take time away from them. Some people think that would be the only job he would apply for if he wanted to get back into it but who really knows.

johnny U Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 I feel, and I know Indian 72 will disagree, that Adams is a sleeping giant with the right person running the program. With the two most successful middle school program(LaSalle and Jefferson) coming to Adams they should be better than they are doing. All sports at Adams should be able to compete at a level where they can compete for conference and sectional titles. This is especially true in the country club sports.

Adams is the best high school in town based on what people say. They have some good and athletic kids. It will take the right coach, system, and the kids buying into to make it happen. They have an outsanding principal and a pretty good AD right now. It is getting the right person to mesh with the student body. Yet you could say that about many schools. Look at what the right coach did at Michigan City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let's look and say they win sectional, regional maybe Lowell or Hammond Morton, (just a guess) then East Noble, Marion ( another guess) know little about the named teams but not sure many can stop them maybbe slow them down or field and weather enter into it.

Knox over Glenn: Glenn is not enough for a hard-nosed Knox team. Marian over Jimtown: Marian has just too many weapons on the outside. New Prairie over Mishawaka: This game may only last an hour. Penn over Adams: Who coaches The Eagles next season? Bremen over Clay: A young Bremen team is still better than Clay. Riley over Washington: Wildcats in a close one.

TurfToe Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 30 minutes ago, MarshallCounty said: Who has Knox played? No offense to the teams in the HNAC but Knox is double in size then most of those schools. Culver? They have a bunch of Earth movers but absolutely no skill guys. Put it in the air and Culver is out matched from the opening kickoff. Winamac? They have like 20 kids in the entire program. Rochester? If #7 Played the first half of the game it would of been a completely different outcome and North Judson? Come on......Knox is benefiting from playing in an overall weak conference. Glenn has played played 3 top ranked teams in Boone Grove 4-0, Marian 4-0 and Jimtown who unfortunately had tough matchups the first few weeks. If Glenn gets the offense rolling Glenn takes this one 28-14. I'll agree on your other predictions but Bremen/Clay will be low scoring. Clays speed sends Bremens QB scrambling all night.

I don't think those wins are anything to scoff at. I think they have a better team, better coach, and better program. Coach Hendryx is 35-15 at Knox. He has the numbers improving. They maybe a bit overmatched in a 3a sectional but if there enrollment was 2a, that would be sectional contenders a lot of years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also thought Bremen would handle Glenn easily and Glenn who is also Sophmore dominated. Took It to Bremen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
