Pipe Dreams

It'd also probably skew toward rural counties, though (Madison, etc.), so it'd be tough to do apples to apples without breaking the counties into population tranches (low, medium, high).

Yeah the annual population data would be hard to come by in matrix form. I'd take the average population count of all years to use for each county.

do a per capita titles per year field!

Ha. Clown world ^ ^ ^ They just took STA down to the wire. The fact that you doubled down is amazing. Glad the board finally caught on. He calls very good teams 'garbage' year after year. What a joke

Two traditional large school powers in the title and a rematch from years past... I love it... I've got APK. Also, this continues the trend in 8A North. From 2010 - 2019 (10 seasons) APK/DP have now represented the north in the title game a combined 7 times.

Hoping Apopka wins it all, as I usually do if Apopka survives past DP. Would be great to see the Blue Darters and Deerfield Beach.

Osceola is well-coached, tackles well, blocks well and grinds it out for 4 yards a carry. Gotta stack the box against them and force them to throw. They didn't break any big ones vs. DP. I see a Seminole/Apopka vs. Western final on the horizon!

3 score game... unless something crazy happened and it was close late this is expected.

Strange game and the outcome, 20-7 Osceola, was not indicative of the play on the field. DP drove 65 yards for their first score, stopped Osceola, then fumbled on their own 20 which led to an Osceola TD. DP trailed 10-7 at the half and quickly got down to the 6 yard line... pick 6 Osceola, 17-7. 14-point swing on one play. Probably the most devastating play for DP since the Plant tip-drill in 2013 (Southridge deep TD in 4thQ 2016 is #3). DP got deep into Osceola territory again but two drives staled within the 30. A muffed punt led to the next Osceola FG for the 20-7 margin with 8:00 left (also the final score). Good luck to Osceola the rest of the way. This one absolutely got away from DP on one play (the 94 yard pick 6). One play decided this game.

Who hosts in the final four? It is based on RPI or is it even/odd regions like years past?

Steinbrenner played us tough that night. Solid, disciplined team that didn't make mistakes until the end. A rematch in the regional final would be great!

This is bigger than football - these bad dudes period. Could have used football to make something of themselves but threw it away. Too common.

Seminole is my pick to win it all.

Good points made on Mandarin above. Last year looks almost identical to this year. Seminole can score quickly. Guessing a lot of college recruiters will be in attendance to see two of the best QB's in the country duel it out.
