Basementbias Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 2 minutes ago, FlyingHigh said: I agree with the "one week at a time" approach. It would be easy to look ahead to a likely regional matchup at South Adams. If that happens, I still think AC advances but they need to continue getting better each week and that won't happen if they don't focus on this week's opponent. Side note - the 2017 loss to Southwood wasn't an upset. SW had the better roster by far. Blair, Trexler and Lloyd were studs. I do agree that 2020 against SW was a letdown. Those teams were more evenly matched than in 17. Yeah probably right on 17, but going in with Schultz & Macklin I thought the outcome would be different. Should have also said 2019 greatly over achieved by upsetting SA at regional too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachVeatch Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 I don't see AC having a lot of issues advancing unless they turn the ball over. The 2 games they struggled the most in this year (Eastside & Busco) they had some untimely turnovers that took scores off the board. They're built for this tournament run. SA will be tough after getting 7 back, and that rivalry is real. It'll be interesting watching that game next week if that field is still a bowl of quicksand. AC looks good though.

FlyingHigh Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) According to John Harrell, below is how the Sectional Championships will shake out. Any thoughts? North Judson over Culver 28-17 Carroll (Flora) over Clinton Prairie 24-21 South Adams over Union City 38-17 Adams Central over Triton 42-10 Parke Heritage over Riverton Parke 42-21 Indy Lutheran over Covenant Christian 42-21 North Decatur over Tri 31-28 Spring Valley over North Central (Farmersburg) 35-17 I think we'll see NJ vs. Carroll and SA vs. AC in the North, but I don't think AC wins by a 32-point margin. Triton has played a much tougher schedule and their young team is playing really well. Edited November 4, 2021 by FlyingHigh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, if they are up 35 at halfime and play the JV in the 3rd quarter it may be less than a 32 point game at the end.

Hoping the AC lines are better than Triton's or it could be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but last year CC hadn't also lost to Park Tudor. After last season, the spin on GID was that CC was the new dominant power of Ben Davis trolling around in a 1A costume and pilfering the all of the Catholic schools for P/P talent for years to come.

Wasn’t the senior transfer RB for CC last year that rushed for 300 plus In the state game also the MVP of the North-South game? Crazy how that happens.

RetiredCoach91 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 From what I see, the consensus of AC and Lutheran heading to Lucas Oil is spot on. Dont think either team has opponents on their side of the bracket that can beat them. It is theirs to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want them to get to Indy like everyone else. Already thinking how they need to keep Wanner off balance and watch for the screens. Not thrilled about playing on the crap field in Berne.

Basementbias Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 Weird that the NW regional isn't LCC vs Pioneer but North Judson vs Carroll (Flora). NJ favored I assume? Watching both, Carroll's run game could give NJ some problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, fall break needs to be a week or two sooner. Believe that took place of the Busco game. This week you can't help think about the 2019 AC vs SA regional game. No way that field is going to be in good condition. It wasn't yesterday in Berne. AC should win, but after AC upset a heavy favorite SA 2019 you need to be cognizant.

The Winamac/NJ game was the sectional championship and regional championship. Watching both games last night/this morning, I think Carroll could run the ball on NJ. Culver was running quite well on them, but their defense couldn't stop NJ and NJ won the special teams. Clinton Prairie was having success running on Carroll and stopped. They were trying with no success to get their passing game going. Carroll secondary looked good against CP. Carroll definitely has offensive tendencies that are easy to spot. Keep #9 from getting past the edge and the QB rolls out right 95% of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winamac was good against the bad teams. They finally played a good team and got beat. Culver had as good a shot as Winamac and the result was the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
