FridayNightLights Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballer_02 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 2A will be an interesting class this year as I could see Andrean, Pioneer or Eastbrook coming away with the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chatard does not want to see the Danville Warriors in the playoffs, especially not the state championship. Because it will be hard to claim that it's a "down year" if they lose that game again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staxawax Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 6A north Westfield is a better football team than HSE. FW Carroll will also have a say so in this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that most forget about Zionsville being in 5A. They play a very tough schedule in the HCC. Valpo probably has the most all around talent. 4A: Mt. Vernon vs. Hobart 3A: Chatard vs. Danville or Southridge 2A: All I can pick is Andrean. Not sure about the South. 1A: Lutheran vs. South Adams Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itiswhatitis Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 It's looking like the state champion in 2A this year will come out of the North. Several teams in the South this year seem to be having "down" years: Western Boone, Scecina, and Mater Dei are just a few that come to mind. Not saying they won't make some noise in the tournament, but I don't see them winning the title. Of course, any team can get hot and end up getting to Lucas Oil even with a few losses. Some times luck of the draw helps. I guess we'll see in a few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndianaWrestlingGuy Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Roncalli travels to East Central for the last game of the regular season. The winner of that game will be my choice out of the South for 4A. I’m betting on East Central. They gave Chatard all they could handle at Chatard.

I will have to defer to @StinkTownClown on the "BiG ReD & BlAcK", but I don't think any of those teams are as good as Mooresville who will represent the South in 4A 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballking16 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Don’t know much about 1A, 2A, or 4A but they’re could be 40-50 point blowouts in the remaining classes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LC_Bears_04 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 My Predictions 6A: Merrillville vs. Center Grove 5A: Valparaiso vs. Cathedral 4A: Hobart vs. Mooresville 3A: Chatard vs. Lawrenceburg 2A: Andrean vs. Triton Central 1A: South Adams vs. Lutheran 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great shot at coming out of the South. 4A South is a tough call. I like Mooresville, Mt. Vernon and East Central. The East Central/Mooresville game at Mooresville last year was a battle. Truly believe folks chronically overlook East Central (usually to their own detriment) because Southeast Indiana may as well be on the moon as far as the rest of the state is concerned.

StinkTownClown Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 Stinky, Stink, Stink 1.2.3. It's hard to bet against EC But you all know if you want truth Come get your advice from STC! BiG ReD & BlAcK has a stout defense that will keep them in most games in the tournament. They have some backers that are the best in the state. The defense will not be the issue. The deal is this, they do not have the offensive firepower that is going to line up in a 4A tournament and get it done. Offensive line is solid, running back, they lost their best RB (ACL), but STC will say this....they have a 9th grader that is going to be good! Stink thinks they have some WR's but the passing game seems to be on the back burner at this time. QB is very average, but does what all EC's QB's are taught to do. Handoff the ball! If the passing game can develop, then maybe....... Stinks Overall Prediction - Unless the offense comes together, the Trojans may have a hard time keeping up with some of the teams that can put up points. Stink is not saying the Trojan D will give up too many points. Reminder Mooresville took the Trojans down last year 17-14. Stink will not rule out the BiG ReD & BlAcK, but a trip to the Oil Can may be a BIG stretch! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
