from_the_sidelines007 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Not so long ago we were all excited about the start of high school football starting in Indiana. Now, here we are and it is Week #3 already. So, who you got this week? Culver at Knox LaVille at Pioneer North Newton at North Judson-San Pierre North White at Winamac Triton at Caston as always, the game is better from_the_sidelines007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinePrint Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 LaVille and Pioneer is the most intriguing matchup, but North White and Winamac will probably be the closest game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The running clock can not start prior to the beginning of the second half. I refer to IHSAA Rules and Procedures for clarification: 1. Beginning with the second half of any high school football game, when the point differential between teams is at or reaches 35 points, the game clock shall convert to a running clock. A running clock is defined as a clock that does not stop during play with the exception of timeouts, scores and/or injuries. 2. Once the running clock is implemented, the clock may not revert back to standard timing protocols regardless of the score of the contest. 3. The 40 second play clock shall remain in effect throughout the contest. 4. Coaches do not have the ability to override the implementation ofthe Mercy Rule during a contest. The Referee shall notify the head coach of each school when the Mercy Rule goes into effect. The home team is responsible for notifying timing personnel of the running clock. as always, the game is better from_the_sidelines007 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were exceptions made due to the effect the pandemic had on roster sizes, allowing the mercy rule timing to start in the first half. No more.

I think Laville will score least 35 on everybody besides maybe Judson and with that I see the score Laville 38 Pioneer 6 Knox Judson North White Triton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be a tall order, but I think Pioneer can win this game. They will have to follow their week 3 game plan from last year, control the ball and the clock and keep the Lancer offense off the field. We are playing with a lot of youth, but we were able to knock those early jitters out in week 1. The Lancers will be one of, if not the best team on our regular season schedule and our kids understand that. However, they are embracing that challenge this week and preparing like they can win.

Skins01 Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Culver at Knox - After losing a close one last week, Skins get back on track and head into the Judson game with momentum. 56-14 Knox. LaVille at Pioneer - Not sure what to think about this years Panthers yet, this week will be very telling. I'm going with Laville in a close one. 28-21 Laville. North Newton at NJSP - Jays get the job done and start prepping for the week 4 rivalry. 42-7 NJSP. North White at Winamac - Winamac gets their first W. 35-14 Winamac. Triton at Caston - Was impressed with Tritons first half last week, I think they learn from last weeks mistakes and win this game easily. 35-7 Triton.

FinePrint Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Culver at Knox - Knox is putting up some big offensive numbers this year! That should continue this week. The Skins should win pretty easily at home. Knox 49-13 LaVille at Pioneer - I can't see the Lancers repeating the beatdown of last year's sectional final, but I also don't see this one going down to the wire. LaVille by 2 TDs and a field goal. Lancers 31-14 North Newton at North Judson-San Pierre - North Newton might win a few games this year, especially in the weak Midwest Conference. But they won't be competitive in this one. Blue Jays 55-7 North White at Winamac - Maybe the closest game of the week. Winamac should get their first dubya of the season. Warriors 21-14 Triton at Caston - Triton will re-focus after last week's second half beatdown. I hope they work on the passing game Friday night, although they certainly won't need it to win this game. The Trojans will roll. Triton 48-6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke of Denham Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Culver @ Knox- Knox seems to be the sexy pick, but there is nothing sexy about playing Culver. It’ll be a fight. Culver chews clock. Goes for it on 4th down a lot and makes a game out of it. Knox 26-22 LaVille @ Pioneer- Lancers are running on all cylinders here in the early season. Pioneer has a program of great pride and tradition. However, Pioneer is short a few hogs for this matchup. Laville 42-6 Triton @ Caston- Triton gets back on track with a running clock. Triton 50-12 North White @ Winamac- Playing at home has to be worth at least 3 points right? Winamac 3-0 Calumet Christian @ NJSP- Who is Calumet Christian? More like who cares!? Cheyenne Allen will become the all-time points leader at NJSP with his next point scored. He is a closing in on the all-time rushing record as well. Both records are in play as they Bluejays keep this thing rolling. NJSP 52-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamikaze Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 37 minutes ago, FinePrint said: What happened to North Newton? Not enough players to play this Friday. Calumet Christian has been lined-up since Monday. Other schools were also contacted, but they had the same issue as North Newton. It's sad that schools can't even field football teams anymore. Calumet Christian beat Hammond Noll a couple of weeks ago. They play Bowman Academy in a couple of weeks. Otherwise, they play a lot of non-IHSAA Christian/homeschool schools. They could be better than what NN would have brought, if healthy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
