    This team scored over 60 points in the first quarter against their opponent, setting a record at that time.  They scored 3TD's before their offense even took the field, 2 on blocked punts and one on an INT.

    Who was the team and who was their unlucky opponent?

      

    Regular season or playoffs?

    In 2005, something unique happened at the state final series that has only happened once in FHSAA state series history.  What was it? 

    There could be more than one answer, but there is one particular I am looking for.  For instance, some teams won their one and only state title in school history, but it is not that. 

     

    Has it happened since 2005?

    I'm not that addicted LMAO

     

    I gave up trying once Josh told me the issue last night and I could tell it was gonna take a while to fix so I decided I would just wait till morning to check back and see if it working again

    That was me, lol.  Came back 5 minutes later thinking the issue would be resolved.  Came back 10 minutes later thinking, the problem must be on my end.  I've got to be strong, must find something else to do.  What else can I do?  I know!!!  Let me clear my browser cache.  That'll certainly do the trick.  Noooooooooo!!!!!!!  What else can I do!  I know.  Let me try a different device.  Nooooooooooo!!!!!

    I'll try one more time before I go to sleep.... No mas.  Didn't shed a tear but I felt funny.

    If the games were in Sarasota or farther I would. But for Daytona, which is about an hour from home, I would have a lot of explaining to do to the wife

    Safety first, says DarterBlue.  After a long day, He'd rather face the hazards of driving in Florida versus the wrath of the wife.  I understand completely.  Safety First!!!

    This was broken down perfect for me to understand thanks for the information. The Miami Schools are definitely represented very well each year at the championship games and also they travel very well which will make sense for the state to try to get more Miami schools in there.  

    You're welcome!

    I believe in this Edgewater team. I did from after the semifinal last year when I realized what you had coming back. With that said, STA is going to be a tall order. But I see a win as possible. It will require the Eagles's best defensive effort. If they can put that effort together for one game, I think the offense can generate enough points to win the school's first football state title which is long overdue. 

    I believe this Edgewater team has a great opportunity to fly under the radar and shock the nation.  It won't be easy but it's not impossible.  One thing about STA is once they get off their game, it a lot easier to step on their necks.  I guess that applies to anyone though, LOL.

    UGA gets it if they win

     

    Though that's unlikely

     

     

    Utah I feel gets it if they win pac 12, if they lose it will be winner of Oklahoma vs Baylor

     

    IF UGA wins, lol.  Outside of high school, Georgia sports in general tend to fold under pressure.

    ...for some perspective

    1974(4 classes)-2 Dade teams made the playoffs

    1984(4 classes)-5 Dade teams made the playoffs

    1994(5 classes)-12 Dade teams made the playoffs

    2004(7 classes)-18 Dade teams made the playoffs

    2014(8 classes)-17 Dade teams made the playoffs

     

    In 2004, 11 of the Dade teams occupied 3 region 3 slots (the remaining 5 were Broward) and all of region 4.  That's huge!  That set up alone meant that at least 1 Dade school was guaranteed a 4th round appearance.  In 2004, there were two.  That's not the only year that scenario came into play but that's a good example of numbers helping the odds of survival.

    Orange is actually 6.5 if you count the two titles won by Catholic High school Bishop Moore. 3 Apopka, 2 Bishop Moore, 1 Dr. Phillips and .5 Evans.

    But very good post overall. I totally concur that the expansion of classes has helped Dade. That, and the fact that large metro areas have gotten more adept at recruiting. 

    Sorry about that.  The change has been made.  Can’t believe I missed that.

    I don't go back that far when dealing with historical streaks in High School football but I know plenty of you guys are when I read some of you guys post about the history of the schools and counties. It seems year in and year out the Miami Schools dominate the other counties as a whole, I know every blue moon a school from a different county may upset a School from Miami but for the most part the Schools in Miami pretty much run the state when it comes to championships. My question is has it always been that way? or this just currently whats going on and it changes over time to a different county?  

    Additional classes has made it easier.  No county in Florida has the sheer amount of schools with the level of depth that can compete in different classes. Dade (yes I know it’s Miami-Dade but I’m old school) has had a great amount of schools reach title games over the decades but it was not an almost guaranteed appearance like it is today.  There was a 14-year period between ‘77 and ‘91 when Dade didn’t win away titles as there were only 4-5 classes and there was more parity.  Today, we have twice that number of classes and unless you have enough good teams in multiple classes, by numbers alone, it would be damn near impossible for Dade not to get a team in the title game.  If you look at Florida most populous counties, there’s almost a direct correlation between population rank and rank in titles.  That’s not always constant as some counties punch higher and others, not so much.

     

    Population                    Titles

    1. Miami-Dade            38.5
    2. Broward                   27
    3. Palm Beach             30
    4. Hillsborough           11
    5. Orange                    6.5
    6. Pinellas                    0
    7. Duval                        31
    8. Lee                            0
    9. Polk                          17
    10. Brevard                    14

         21.   Escambia              12
         22.   Leon                        21

    Leon County has won more titles than 62 of Florida’s 67 counties despite being the 22nd largest Florida county. Escambia makes Hillsborough, Orange, Lee & Pinellas counties look bad in terms of raw numbers and they have a chance to add another title this year. Orange also has 3 chances to increase their title counts.

    Thoughts, Opinions, Predictions on Finals? I feel like if they train and clean up some plays they'll have a close win against STA. Yea I know Armwood wasn't playing at their best but still, almost nobody thought these kids would get by since the Crestview game.

    I’m pulling for Edgewater. It will be a tall task but nothing is impossible. Shock the nation with this victory.

    Maybe Polk county. Lakeland, Lake Gibson, evangel, and fort meade or frosproof.

    How it wish it were Polk.  The most we've gotten is 3 teams in the finals at the same time.

    1996 - Lakeland, Bartow, Frostproof
    1999 - Lakeland, Frostproof, Ft. Meade
    2004 - Lakeland, Lake Gibson, Ft Meade
    2005 - Lakeland, Evangel, Ft Meade

    Too late. They were shook. They let little brother Tampa Bay Tech come whoop them up only to escape alive. Them big bro came to finish the job. 

    Lakeland dont want nothing Hillsborough is cooking!!!!!

    i still remember when James Wilder Jr was dragging Lakeland linebackers into the end zone in a running clock laugher 

    Lakeland needs to petition the FHSAA on how to not have to go West on I-4!!!!!!!

    LOL!  It's too bad Hillsborough County won't be going East on I-4, North on I-75 and West on I-10.  I really expected HC to get one school to the ship. SMH...
