To be Honest  agree with everything that all of you guys said.! But lets be real when it comes down to school in S.florida particulary
 
  It starts from the top with the coaches....especially at the "black schools" You have coaches who half show up at practices ....the coaches are not even on 1 accord with each other ...the practices are unprofessional more then HALF let the kids do what they want to do horse around and actually expect professional results on game day. black schools seem to love trying to hire from within there alumni and rarely do distinctive coach searches and that's what hurt these inner city black schools yeah they balled at the school and proably made it to the NFL But that does not mean they can coach.!! and on top of that
 
 
 with more then half of the black schools down here particulary in broward county they make close to "ZERO" in game adjustments you hardly ever see them on the sidelines coaching up there players in my "opinion" if the offense is on the field the defensive coaches should have there players together and discussing there next sequence...instead you have the coaches on the other side watching the game and the players just sitting on the bench.
 
 
ANd last but not least im sorry but the generation of these kids today are LAZY.!!!! they don't want to work they watch all this tv and social media and see how all these star players go join up on 1 team so that's what they do in high school they don't want to work hard and earn it so they run to ST THOMAS AMERICAN HERITAGE where they get a free ride to college even if they don't start on the team.
 
back in the day especially in the 90's kids dreamed about growing up playing for there home school making a difference and winning a ring now its all about personal stats....there team can be down 40.!!!! and you got kids dancing and laughing on the sideline and not even upset by there teams performance that's sad bro.!!!!!! so yes what you guys stated is a good pieace of the problem but this right here is he core of the problem atleast in broward county

I expect Columbia to have no problem with Viera. Lakeland was in early-season form Friday night with turnovers, penalties, and mistakes. They also flat out fell down many times when making open field cuts on Viera's field. The offense was as conservative as I have seen all season. Not really sure what went in to that gameplan, but it definitely did not work. 
 
If STA's offensive line can hang with Braden River's D-Line, they should win. BR's runs a very aggressive defense. Plant City ate them up on their first drive, but couldn't do much after that. If STA can take advantage of their aggressiveness they can find lots of open areas in the secondary.

It's been a great year folks, Northwest Florida specifically Okaloosa County has ended the playoff run.
 
 
Niceville loses to Tate, 21-20. Very close game, nothing connected for Niceville early... until the second half of the game. Unfortunately, the clock ticked down and Niceville couldn't finish the last drive they were on which would have actually been the game winner. It's an upset though, most of us in the area and the newspaper had picked Niceville to win, but Tate showed up and proved us wrong. The Aggies are now off to Armwood high... best of of luck to Tate. Niceville had beat out Tate 4 times in the last 3 years, and went into 3 final 4 playoff appearances so it's easy to see the picks. 
 
 
Port St Joe slays Baker, 42-13. I give Coach Brunson a knock on the back, he has turned the program around and it shows. Baker just didn't have the size that Port had, but the Gators got over Vernon who also had a size advantage. Baker's yards were close to Port St Joe, but the gators could not finish their drives which is why the score is what it is.
 
 
Well, Okaloosa is out. The remaining teams from Northwest Florida are Tate and Port St Joe. 
 
 

columbia will host the state semifinals and look to get first state title birth since 1997, will play Viera High School in tiger stadium, any predictions for game?

Viera has played Cocoa and some big teams like Allen Texas which is one reason they beat out lakeland tonight. 
 
Congrats though, I'm gonna bet on Columbia for this one 33-32, or something really close.

Okaloosa County! 
 
This year Choctaw or Niceville are looking hot, one of them can make it to final 4, but past that we'll have to see. 
 
Choctaw did very good against Armwood last year, if the indians would have converted one of the fumbles that would have been game. 
 
Niceville on the other hand got beat down by Osceola, but all of the juniors last year were seniors so it was bigger team than what Niceville could handle. 
 
But my sig means I'm a bulldog, and anytime we beat Niceville or Choctaw or Ft walton, I'll be really hyped!
