Guest DT Posted November 22, 2019 Share Posted November 22, 2019 Very little interest in this game Has BD-CG become boring and redundant? Perhaps another reason for CG to jump to the HCC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A jump to the HCC would sure make CG the big dog on the block though since the rest of the conference sure couldn’t do squat in the tournament.

Good thing the MIC does football because they certainly don’t do math. Another outlandish claim that the video puts to bed. Not even close as the end zone seats are basically empty and the BD side is about 80 percent full. 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Really feel for the BD defense in particular. Held Steele under 100 despite 21 carries but their offense just couldn’t get consistent yardage against the Trojans defense and the untimely turnover at the end ultimately cost them.

Obviously that person made a mistake. Get over yourself... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I may have been generous with the 80 percent estimation on BD’s side too...) You throw out here say, I’ll stick with facts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told by a CG official (not a referee, an administrator) that they weren’t going to be selling anymore tickets. Yes, that’s hearsay but it’s from someone who makes a lot more than you’ll ever make. Not everyone can be perfect like you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BDGiant93 Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Congratulations to the Trojans on a hard-fought victory. Very proud of the Giants. Thought they were going to make that comeback again. Just couldn't do it tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great defensive football by both teams. Hard hitting, clean game. Trojans have to be proud that playing through this tournament is continued battles against MIC brothers....Warren, BD and now Carmel.

Guest DT Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 No doubt it was a great game with lots of talent on both sides. Mega school football in Indiana is not as compelling as it used to be due to the annual redundancy we see in the post season You certainly can't blame the schools. They are doing their best but the casual , non connected fan has lost interest in these MIC tournament matchups CG and Carmel will play for the state championship for the 3rd time in the past decade. Something seems out of balance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something seems out of balance They can down vote you all they want but there is no denying the pathetic attendance numbers for a SEMI STATE contest. It was standing room only a few years back at CG when Avon came to town yet MIC schools with a combined enrollment of 7000 can’t even fill the seats in a winner take all contest for a trip to LOS?

It's the redundancy. Fans want to see new teams in the mix. 6A is the most exclusionary winners club in all of high school sports, Carmel swimming being an exception.

Guest DT Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 This was the first meeting ever between Hobart and East Noble Maybe that should be an indication to the folks who run the 6a tournament that a little variety might increase interest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) Created six threads with a poll yesterday AM (one for each class’ state title game) and the 6A one has the LEAST amount of votes as it stands at the time of this posting. Central Indiana has the largest population base in the state, these are the two biggest schools playing this weekend and there is more talent on the field in this contest than any other game next weekend, yet it is generating the least interest. I know this website does not account for all of the fans in Indiana but combine this with the supposed “sell out Friday night” and @DT‘s claim seems to have legitimacy...
