On the bright side...SHG State Champions in 2025 and 26!

All.... Hold on sir. Figuring out actual enrollment is a two year deal. Looking at past historical numbers the Cyclones will be on that bubble between 3A and 4A. I see them going 4A along with QND. It will be a different look for the Raiders in 2025 which Roamin' if he has time gearing up for Maroa next Saturday can speak about.... Ratsy

Id want to see them change how they seed 1-8 in class 7a/8a. Massey, AP, Maxpreps, etc. Something better to avoid the top teams from meeting before the qtr finals.

Those computers have some absurd ratings every time I see them. Not sure how they could come to some of those conclusions.

Profound observation!

Nothing new just glad the quarters are here. I know many on here are not happy with the blowouts. I agree and just like to see more competitive games. It’s getting down to only the best teams are still playing at this point. I believe 4Afan said it doesn’t matter if you play a team in the first or second round if you win you move on regardless. I myself have no problem with LWE playing LA in the semifinals if it works out that way. If East wants to win a championship they have to beat the best. Same as every other team still playing regardless of class.
Good luck to all the teams. They are all deserving.

Ok I watched the whole video. There was no complaint whatsoever. He did state that Byron fans might want to take another look at it, but his camera follows the ball and he didn’t capture the penalty.
That’s it.

I have seen the play discussed quite a bit because it was absolutely a pivotal play in the game.

I haven’t heard anyone complain that it was a bad call.

Yea im getting my threads mixed up. I had been reading about the calls in the fenwick game right before I saw the clip of the Montini game.

I have them winning 4A in the bracket challenge

Agreed. Should be interesting. The last several games teams just have their DT's fall in the A/B holes making piles in the hole. If your DE cannot play run .... Warren will run behind their 2 Big OT's up the C hole. Stewart is low to the ground ... you cannot see him until he is your lap. He's is okay with 1 - 2 -3 yards. By the 3rd Q teams get worn down. If you are a step slow filling your hole Stewart is gone. York QB likes to run a lot. He better get down because Warren plays physical. It should be a fun one for semi final ticket 🎟. 🎢

Syc by 3
SF coming off a pretty physical game and Sycamore has had an easy ride and deservedly so.

Syc needs to limit big plays and make SF put together longer drives. PR had no chance at stopping the pass at all….

Sycamore for conference affiliation and with an Iowa commit at safety they can defend the pass.

Sycamore has a historic pipeline of football players going to Iowa. Two brothers play in the NFL.

Taunting

Here is the Fenwick DB brandishing a gun on the field.

There isn't a football coach in our state that doesn't not want every class seeded 1-32.

So can’t they have their AD submit a proposal?

Ref question...can you not return a 2 pt. conversation attempt in HS? Morris intercepted a conversation attempt and as the defender started running it was blown dead. Can you not run it out of the end zone on an intercepted conversion attempt?

Click to expand...

You cannot. Play is just ruled dead immediately.

Last time someone said in the fields. Since this tread, made me think it would be in civilization. Not scared - excited to welcome them! No shenanigans, not at all what I mean. But let’s play a home and away series.

Not the same CPC team as last year. Althoff wins easy and the clock may run.

Would be at Althoff. Not the first time you've asked this. Scared of the children of the corn? 😉

Coach Adriano always went for 2 points. He would say, “we don’t play to tie, we play to win”.

Gonna be a good game!

IMHO the current system is the most reasonable and objective system. Only change I would make would be 1-32 for all classes. The seeding and hosting school make sense to me.

Running QBs have given SF nightmares this year - one of the things that tilted the Rita game heavily in Rita’s favor was their QB ripping off big runs. Containing his playmaking ability will be critical for SF.

What a fun time of year.

Gautcher can run, but I wouldn't say he's a running QB. The offense doesn't revolve around his running ability.
