Nulli Secundus

Remove Lakeland from the poll until further notice, LOL!

I've been waiting for this game all season. I couldn't decide whether to talk trash or keep it civil, LOL. These are high schoolers we're talking about. I have my own person feelings about this match so I do my best to keep it above board. Will it live up to the hype? I don't know. What I can say is Dillard has an opportunity to add their name to a very short list teams from a historical aspect. Historical, you say? Not many teams defeat STA and even fewer manage a victory at Brian Piccolo. I'm pulling for you! Follow your game plan and keep your composure. Then when they least expect it, follow the instructions below: Dillard, repeat these actions and you will defeat St. Thomas

He wasn't a student-athlete, just a student, LOL

Yeah, times have changes. A guy a knew at Lakeland that showed up with a rifle in his rack as well. He was promptly arrested and expelled from Polk County in '93. He ended up at Plant City.

LG vs A-dale should be a great game.

Yeah, I saw the video. Criminal charges pending, smh.

Yes. It appeared that Winter Haven had control for most of the game. However, Auburndale was able to pull out the win and that's all that matters.

Baker act…

After going back and actually looking at all the seasons, 2014 was not the last time Auburndale started 4-0. It was actually 2019. My eyes must have been tired. Anyway, their 3 losses were to Winter Haven and twice to Lake Gibson. 1996 5-5 Preseason 8 / 30 at Boca Ciego - - - Regular Season 9 / 6 at Manatee L 20 30 9 / 13 at Winter Haven W 34 26 9 / 20 Open 9 / 27 at Lake Gibson W 35 26 10 / 4 Lake Wales L 7 41 10 / 11 at Lake Region W 40 7 10 / 18 George Jenkins W 23 0 10 / 25 at Lakeland L 20 41 11 / 1 Tampa Bay Tech W 40 21 11 / 8 Armwood L 17 37 11 / 15 at Bartow L 13 35 1997 5-5 Class 4A -

I got you! Standby by man.

First 4-0 start for A-dale since 2014. With the Bloodhounds taking on Gateway for homecoming, the Hounds have a great shot to go 5-0 for the first time since before I started keeping records almost 25 years ago.

What do you think the punishment should be for the Coaches, School Administrators, and many others for the CRIMINAL act of False Imprisonment? What's next, hate crimes against refs? LOL.

Probably disgruntled fans that have no affiliation with the school AT ALL. Damn.

The phrase "stay in your lane" comes to mind. The emergency lane. For a county that large, the results have been less than stellar for decades, sadly.

Are you surprised? Orange County isn't the flagship in the state of Florida. Did you expect better results OOS?

What!? I've been out of school for damn near a quarter century and obviously a lot of rules have changed. I remember vividly myself and even my friends from other schools where that was a common practice not only at the high school but at middle schools for incoming students at feeder schools.

Taps.... No excuse. That is all, LOL.

Maybe I'm wrong (and I can admit when I am), but I don't ever recall CC being a formidable opponent in football. Anyway, this SHOULD be a blowout. I would be disappointed if Dillard allowed 10.

It's 2021, a completely different generation. It wasn't a girl.

One thing Calpreps use to do was have composite rankings from all the sites on their site. Maybe I'm overlooking it or maybe they discontinued that option. I have my crazy days but I know I'm not crazy about this. If you remember or find it, chime in!

Congratulations! This is only the beginning. I hope the Panthers roll all the way to the title game.

I honestly can't answer that question. In all my years, I've never used Maxpreps for anything so I wouldn't be able to give a fair assessment. However, based on the fact that they can't get schedules correct, I wouldn't put too much stock in that. However, I'll also say go with the site that has you rated the highest, real talk. It always looks better at the end of the season.

Oh yeah, they've been around for a while. Some things are spot on, some things are way off as with any site. It is fun to project matchups though.
