Indiana Fan Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 I heard CG has some players out due to contact tracing. I know their kicker for 1. Any word on this? Hopefully they are all playing Friday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CG is on fall break this week, so that’s a plus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CG’s is 6th. Massey which I believe to be the best, if you want to factor in out-of-state competition, has Center Grove as a HUGE favorite, a 72-percent win rate and 33-21 score prediction. I'm on the record as favoring Cathedral. And this is why we settle it on the field. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itiswhatitis Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 I think it's safe to say: this game will eventually take on a life of it's own. A game like this only comes along about once a generation. 2 powerhouses going at it. The best in 6A against the best in 5A. Both nationally ranked and both undefeated. Throw out the classes, throw out the records. I am one fan who is glad they get to settle the bragging rights on the last week of the season. Anything earlier in the year, and I believe it could have been a distraction for one or maybe both teams. I am not going to pick a winner in this one! I think they are that close to each other. I don't think Hollywood could have scripted this one any better. My congrats to both teams for their outstanding seasons. Now go represent and stay healthy! And remember: you still have the tournament to finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indiana Fan Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I heard from inside sources that ESPN wanted this game to be played on Saturday evening. Both teams could not agree on moving it to Saturday. What a shame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballking16 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 Couple early keys for both teams. Cathedral -attack CG's secondary up the seams. Lawrence North exposed CG's secondary in the first half of their game last Friday. Cathedral's wideouts aren't as explosive as Cooper from LN but athletic enough and should be able to have a big night if McCahill is given protection. -force CG into obvious passing downs. Don't think it's any secret CG will want to keep the ball on the ground and keep Cathedral's O off the field. Jackson is a great QB but it's pretty clear CG prefers the ball to be in Steele's hands Center Grove -make Cathedral one dimensional on offense. Cathedral has a very balanced offensive attack and can beat you on the ground and through the air. -Win the LOS. Cathedral has dominated it's opponents on both sides of the ball at the line of scrimmage. Center Grove, especially their DL, will be the toughest unit Cathedral has seen to date and will see all year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed...I think this is what clouds the thought process with football fans, and thinking when comparing athletics' in the state of Indiana...Yes, the State Championship in all sports is the team recognized goal throughout the state, but National Recognition is the ultimate goal...Center Grove, Cathedral, and other great programs should have the opportunity to play other schools, from other states, regardless of distance (if the particulars can be worked out) in order to boost our great state athletic programs...When I think of all the great INDIANA Football, Baseball, Basketball, (any other sports) programs that have come-n-gone, I wish they could see where they stack up and play the best there is out there...The Herbstreit Classic was great for Cathedral, not belonging to a conference, and being locked into games has helped, and the mindset of National recognition has helped. If Indian sports wishes to keep up with AAU/Club Sports programs, they better figure out how to figure it out, and help support schools who cant $fund$ it...MyHumbleOpinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MICFan34 Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 When was the last time two nationally ranked teams from Indiana both played each other in the regular-season? I'm hard-pressed to think of a match-up that even closely resembles this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure Brownsburg-Avon played each other a few years back when Brandon Peters and Hunter Johnson were still around on ESPN. Not sure if either was nationally ranked but it was definitely profiling two high end recruits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
