This is also why they play many OOS games vs. much better competition.

Congrats Dillard! big time win. Keep getting after it.

I'm not even a fan of LW, but this is obviously a Lakeland guy feeling threatened that he ever so precious dreadnaughts aren't the only good team in the county so he's trying to downplay other schools.

I'm going to say 28-24 Dillard

What makes you think they should have man handled them? North Gwinnet is a top tier team in GA. I would expect them to make a legitimate run in 7a. Not sure where your logic is in this post. Actually from what I heard, North Gwinnet man handled Armwood. Numerous people have said that NG should have won by two touchdowns but gave up some BS plays that kept Armwood in it.

You were right. I retract my statement. After seeing the way they lost that game, Dillard should have a great shot at winning this one. Good luck moving forward this season!!

I would bet that Columbus will beat Dillard. Should be a good game!

Your list excludes people who were or are starters. This is the most inaccurate thing I've seen. You're a joke. Stop trying to defend the undefendable. Again, this is the exact reason nobody respects anything about these programs as of late.

Yes, that is what I meant. My apologies. Wouldn't expect a Colquitt like team to travel to FL.

Wouldn't be surprised a bit if Edgewater beat Marietta. Marietta barely won 10 games the last two years combined. People say they're a top dog in Georgia, but having a few good players doesn't make you a top dog. Would have much rather seen an Edgewater vs. Colquitt/Grayson/Lowndes/North Gwinnett match up. Colquitt travels to Trinity Christian in a couple of weeks. Lowndes played Northwestern and North Gwinnett played Armwood and we all know how well our state was portrayed in those games.....Not good for the state of FL. With that being said, Edgewater may go up to Marietta and earn a little respect back for the state!

Yes, pull info from one of the many statements. haha

To be honest, this is why nobody really even cares that Lakeland won other than those "diehard fans" is because it's not even respectable due to the fact that 80% or more of their starters were at different schools for their junior year of HS. Now with that being said, the talent that Demarcus Bowman and others have is undeniable. A couple of those guys are true Lakeland players, but as for the rest it's almost laughable at the players they have on their team who were recruited over. I say recruited because that's exactly what it is. People can say all day that "nobody is recruiting, it's just a better program...blah blah blah." Coaches are calling parents, boosters are reaching out to people, community people are becoming the "bag guys" for these schools. Like i said, it's why nobody really respects if they win.

I believe Northwestern won state a few years back with a 5-5 record. I may be wrong.
