inner city Rivalry game against childhood friends, what you expect

I’m guessing it’s similar with MC and N’western.

yeah not seeing any other teams coming close to those 2 the rest of the year in our division.

 

Wow! Didn’t expect DL to lose to MBA.

What has IMG done to be ranked higher than Gorman or C-M? Kahuku is getting too much credit for beating Bosco. I have a hard time ranking a team that was boat raced the prior week and has only beaten up on awful local teams.

If it was any other team but Mater Dei I would agree with you. They could blow out most teams outside of the top 5 in the country on any given night.

6A > 7A in Bama this season. 

Maybe overall, but PCC would beat Saraland in a close to be. 

On 9/28/2023 at 10:27 PM, GardenStateBaller said:

From Day One our poll has had Saraland as #1 in AL. Tonight was more proof. 

Phenix City Central has been ranked higher for a few weeks now….😎

yeah for real.

mccallie takes the lead 27-24 8:12 left in the 4th

LA struggling a bit, down 14-7 close to half.  gave up an INT on the 1 yd line.

I see the Tornadoes pulled it out. Looks like it was a good game. They’ll meet again for all the marbles later. This was just the tuneup for the real game later. 

Looking like CAI is handling BA like I thought. Hard to believe BA will be 1-6. That’s unheard of!! 
 

Baylor leading McCallie 24-19 in the 4Q.

That was straight from the coach. Even with all the injuries, they have been competitive with all their opponents and they have played really good teams! Brentwood Academy won’t win this game so easily! 

BA is not their normal selves this season. That’s why I was thinking CAI was going to knock them off. Not as sure now knowing about the injuries. 🤔

BA has a good shot since CAI is missing all their key starters. Hope they can go up there and pull it off.

Didn’t realize they were missing a bunch of starters.

yeah a baylor win this weekend would set up a fun showdown between LA and mccallie for the final regular season game.  might have some home field advantage on the line.

seems like christian bros isn't as good as previous years.  is that true or are they just beat up like LA?

I always read your Div II games of the week posts over on CoachT. Someone said BA will win easily over Clearwater Acad. Clearly those guys over there know nothing about the bigger national scene. I think the one guy just simply looked them up on Calpreps and saw that they have a 0-4 record. He doesn’t realize that all four of those teams CA lost to are ranked inside the top 200 nationally and they played them all close. The fact that the BA/CA game is in Nashville might make it competitive, but I wouldn’t be shocked if CA goes up north and knocks the Eagles off. 
 

I think you need to educate the CoachTers about the national scene. I tried years ago, but they simply had no idea what I was talking about. Maybe you can have better luck lol.

Same here. And which polls have paid subscribers?? I don't know of any that do. Thx! 

It’s more so with hits on their websites these days. Although, USAToday still has paid subscribers. I know ESPN and MaxPreps (maybe?) have portions of their sites that you have to pay for.

Too bad nobody of importance will ever see it 😉 

I value the opinions of posters on here and prepgridiron then I do the pundits who put out polls to appease subscribers.

CP rankings do indeed suck. There's NO WAY 4 TX teams should be ranked in the Top 17 in America as of tonight!

Only 3 are deserving IMHO. 

On 9/24/2023 at 7:22 PM, GardenStateBaller said:

Don't look now, but Jason Whitten's Liberty Christian is ranked higher than the following TX Power Publics: 

Highland Park

The Woodlands

Allen

Gunter

Dripping Springs

Coppell

 

All of those teams would beat Liberty Chr. You can’t rely on Calpreps for ranking teams. Computers always over rank smaller schools who blow out inferior competition. CP is a great resource to check scores since they are all compiled on one sight. I couldn’t finish my poll without it. 

Let me help you out a little:

2. Las Vegas,NV Gorman

3. Bradenton,FL IMG

4. Hollywood,FL Chaminade-Madonna

8. Buford,GA

Baylor at #24 McCallie

That’s a much better game!!

CBC MO at Lipscomb TN on Flo!

DL is down right now and CBC just got their shit pushed in last week. Not such a top game anymore. 

McCallie/Baylor this week. Round 1 of the state championship. 
 

Lipscomb can still throw a wrench in the mix. They have to rep out against St. Louis Chr. Bros. this weekend.

That's what was also said about DLS, DBP, Valdosta, Moeller, Ignatius, Allen, etc. 😉 

And DLS, Valdosta and Allen aren’t THAT bad this year. Teams have down years. It’s not the end game of the world. 

2 hours ago, GardenStateBaller said:

They're losing to their peers by 38+ points!!

Yes, right now. You still can’t just forget about their success in previous years. It wasn’t THAT long ago. They’ll be back.

It's the Big Hawaii 3 now. 

I’m not ruling out the Crusaders just yet. A few down years is just a blip in the overall scheme.

Campbell has improved a lot over the last few years. Taking out one of the big Hawaii four (Kahuku, Punahou, Mililani and St. Louis) is huge. Although, St. Louis hasn’t been their normal selves the last few years.

I’d bet my entire fortune that Cen10 beats all comers from TX. 

That’s a ballsy statement. On any given Friday night they have the firepower to do it, but it would be too close to bet the house on.

St. Ed is way to high.  They needed a last second FG to beat 2-2 Elder (which previously lost to Pick North).  Not Top 25 material

Poly should not be in the Top 25. (boat raced 60-15 by BG) and barely beat a down MV team.  Cant be in the Top 25 with no defense.

Cen10 is  to high as well. (Boat raced by The Bishop).  Can't be in the Top 25 with no defense.

Sierra Canyon (barely beat JSerra 9-7) is overrated.  (OLU will beat them on Fri)

St. Ed is fine where they’re at. Playing at the Pit is always a tough game. 
 

BG would blow out most of the top 25 teams like that. The big 4 recruiting powers (MD,SJB,IMG and BG) are simply a tier above everyone else. Although, Miami Central and/or C-M might be in that club this year. 
 

I do agree that Poly and S. Canyon aren’t top 25, Cen10 might still be.

@Adam Kurkjian

is Catholic Memorial number 1 in Mass? This will be a very interesting game vs Cardinal Newman,FL. Not everyday you get to see a top Mass team play a quality team from a power state. Cardinal Newman is a top 20-30 Florida team right now. I had them in the bottom of my top 25, but had to bump them out due to a few other teams having a much better profile right now. But they are right on the fringe. If Newman is at full health, I expect them to win. What’s the lowdown with Memorial? 

Is it Cath. Mem. from W. Roxbury? If so, an interesting matchup. 🤔
