Sometimes the competition this is a reason you don't. Those teams do sharpen each other, but it can also be an issue when you beat each other up. There are no weeks off.

Are you like this at parties too? I said what I said. Sometimes you beat each other up. It can drain you at the end of the year. So, you bring in a college example. Cool. You win. Got me. Go spike a football in my crushed ego. Geez. 🤣 I could say the sky is blue, and you'd be like..."Is it though?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The HCC is catching up but I’d still give the edge on depth to BD or CG. Both of those teams have had key players miss significant time this year and haven’t skipped a beat.

I just continually heard two narratives in the tournament from MIC coaches depending upon what end of the scoreboard they ended up on. MIC school wins state: “The grind of the MIC schedule prepped us for anything we’d see in the tournament and our tough schedule paid off.” MIC school that loses before state: “The grind of the MIC schedule really took its toll as you have to be at your best every week and by November we were just too beat up.” Its exhausting.

Unless football simply becomes de-emphasized, I don’t see that happening. Too much structure and too big of a commitment for Center Grove to take a step back.

Ben Davis will stop the Iresh run game an bring presser that Irish cannot handle. Ben Davis did solid against the run when playing Brownsburg, gave up a couple of big runs but Brownsburg's RB was really good. Ben Davis gave up some long passes but locked down in the 4th quarter making plays. Cathedral ran the ball more against Lawrence North than they typically do. The Giants can create problems for the Irish Offense, the Irish will have to play a whale of a game Offensively to have a shot. The Irish defense has done well against the run all year, but the Giants have a quick back in Price and the QB runs very hard when needed so the Irish will have 2 runners to focus on. Secondary has been the Irish weak spot all year, they played pretty solid against LN, and a lot of that had to do with the pressure applied to the QB while trying to keep him from making big plays with his legs. The Irish would need to have a great game from their secondary again as the Giants can hit big plays in the passing game as their QB has a great arm and Zachary is very scary. Should be a great game. I think many Irish and Giants fans will be wondering which Giants or Irish team shows up Friday. They will be entertained none the less. Last week I expected Ben Davis to destroy Pike. Watched the Cathedral vs Lawrence North game expecting a Offensive shootout and it ended up being a defensive battle. Don't fully know what exactly we will see from Ben Davis and Cathedral, but having watched both play they will both play hard throughout. 20 minutes ago, temptation said: Can we really call it “home field advantage” in this case?
