That’s wonderful to hear. Good luck to the Conquerors tonight! We need a rematch in 2023!

Going to be a great game. I think it will be close for 3 quarters but TCA pulls away to win it by 10.

Credit to Lakeland tonight: they dominated in every phase of the game. I’m sorry I couldn’t be there; I have some family In town right now or else we could have met before the game. I hope this isn’t a precursor of the regular season, as Venice’s offensive line seemed really spotty. On some plays they looked like the o-line of last year, but most of the time it looked like they were blocking thin air. Bentley had almost no time to throw. Defense looked ok at points, they had a few plays where they got good pressure and I think they even registered a sack. But overall it was the pitiful offense that doomed them to lose this game. They need to sort out the issues with the offensive line quickly, or else they could be in for a 3-7 season with the kind of teams scheduled to play. With that being said, I can’t wait for the season to begin. I know they will get the issues sorted out and a least be in the mix for another run in 2022. But it’s going to be very tough to get back to the big dance with you guys, Osceola, Riverview, and LG in the way. I am hopeful that they can repeat but realistic as right now, the odds do not appear good for another magical run. However, Father Time has yet to tell a lie and we will have to wait and see how everything shakes out. Go Indians!

Nah Dillard trash, Madison County better.

Special teams bro. I’ll say it again. SPECIAL TEAMS!! Lol. One blocked kick and Dillard wins that STA game last year.

I thought the FHSAA branded 4 metro and 4 suburban classes each, which came out to 8 classes overall? To explain- (4A Metro, 4A Suburban, 3A Metro, 3A suburban, so on so forth.) Was there a change that I missed?

I can’t wait for the season to start man, all of this NFL draft stuff and discussion is driving me up a damn wall! Lol. I expect Dillard to be a dominant force and probably win 3A Metro outright. STA has something to fear this season..

Not an issue for Madison County, though. All teams that play them are trash. So even if they don’t get a game, they win vicariously through... well, I’ve never made it this far!

They can defeat CMD without a doubt. Last year, Dillard and CMD played in the preseason game and fought to a 16-0 Lion win. The defense on both sides were extremely stringent and did not allow big plays or long, extended drives. In my opinion, Dillard has nowhere to go but up considering that most of their team from last year returns and they have received 8-10 transfers in already. They should be favored on paper, although it is certain that anything can happen. Anyone can beat anyone on any given night so don’t write off Dillard like they’re a joke. The Panthers are going to give everyone on their schedule a tough game, win or lose. It’s a game of inches, man... a game of inches.

Going to be a very tough game for the Raiders to win. AHP is loaded to the brim with talent. But as you know, any given Friday...

Chaminade and STA are wins, MC the lone loss.

Whhheeew now that’s a gauntlet!! Lol. Win them all and you’re on track for a national championship. Good luck to your Panthers bro, I can easily see 10-0 with the kind of squad they have returning. We need to schedule a game next year!

Mostly correct; but on the latter half, I think you are missing a few bad words, Perspective!

Whether they lose 1, lose 4, or go undefeated, just stay healthy for playoffs!! That’s what really counts. You guys are in 3A metro this year, right?

Honestly I think there’s a good chance your Panthers come away from this schedule unbeaten or with just 1 loss. I could see them dropping the Miami Central game in week 3 and then using that sort of as “gasoline on the fire” to finish the season 9-1 and have HFA throughout the playoffs.
