Servite isn't very much relevant on the national scene. Other than playing Bishop Gorman and American Fork, that's all there is to Servite's OOS resume. They had one good year last year and didn't make the most of it by scheduling nationally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy Swordsman Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 2 minutes ago, Horsefly said: we also get Cita and liberty. Will be a great comparison with Pitt. But my goodness, I was shocked to see the mighty Cali owned by Utah last year by a 7-4 team at that. 59-27! 😂 UT went 2-0 vs Cali in 2021. Amazing what happens when MD and SJB aren’t doing all the lifting Our teams based in the SF Valley (Jokes, Westlake Village) are generally lacking the linemen size that are prevalant in the Trinity League. The SF Valley teams have no business being ranked in the Top 75 Nationally. They like to play Utah teams because our teams think Utah is easy. In reality the Utah Top 3 are better than the Calif 10-20 ranked teams Texas is probably stronger State vs State after the Top 10 or so.

Servite was much better than Duncanville last year, since we are talking "recently". Servite also gets benefit of the doubt for being better than Miami Central, Oscar Smith and East St. Louis vis a vis the SJB win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daisy chaining isn’t always accurate. That’s why the games are played. Who knows, maybe Miami Central would’ve beat Servite last year. But guess what, we’ll never know. I do think Servite was better than Duncanville last year. They were scrambling for a QB, amongst other excuses, wasn’t their best year. But that’s the only year I would give Servite the nod to. Any other year, heck no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With SJB and MD hogging up all the talent via transfers, and pop warner pipelines. QB gurus (aka Steve Clarkson types) funneling the top 8th graders to them as well. This really hurts the rest of the area who end up with only a few D-1 guys normally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Swordsman Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Prior to last year when Servite broke through, I think SJB played MD in the D-1 playoff finals 4-5 times in a row. If you put SJB and MD into their own "open playoff bracket", the next 16 ranked teams would be an exciting bracket with potential first round upsets. Like it used to be prior to 2013.

SFA has the toughest schedule in America this season. Them going undefeated will be a lay-up #1 pick for me. And who knows, maybe it'll then force the top TL teams to schedule them in 2023 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJB’s Schedule is not good enough to be #1 if they don’t sweep MD…. MD would have a Better argument then SJB with 1 loss because even if MD loses in League play to SJB, MD would still have 3 wins over the National Top 10…. If MD or SJB win out, their schedule will be much better. For starters one or the other will have a win over the other, and probably a win over Cen10 all in the playoffs. the toughest team on SFA incomplete schedule is IMG. (Maxpreps only has them with 5 games so far) One can’t brow beat on how important schedules are then reward a team with a much weaker one Edited June 28, 2022 by Horsefly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they had a Full Schedule that Included IMG, DeSoto, Venice and Kuhaku which would be a Better schedule then SJB…. It doesn’t matter anyway because MD is not losing to SJB so SJB will be a Non Factor in the end…. 🤣 It won’t be a better schedule once CA conference/playoffs are included and they win out. They’ll potentially have games vs 3 top 5 teams. my argument isn’t a SJB one, as much as it is for whomever comes out of CA: assuming it’s SJB, MD or Cen10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
