Have you guys not been listening….VERO is NOT a top 10 team in 4S without Arunson! Got lucky against Harmony but the lack of offense was exposed big time tonight! I’m still shocked they beat TC…
-
So here’s what I MEAN…..everyone seems to be OK with the argument that losing to a “better team” is better than beating an inferior team…my first statement would be “any given Friday” anyone is beatable and I used TC as an example because they won zero non district games yet most thought they a shoe in to make playoffs…why? As I said earlier without maxpreps making there algorithm public it would seem scheduling IMG/STA etc etc and going 0-7 non conference means you should get in? I’m just pointing out what I see as a flaw in the system where not only does TC get in but ahead of teams with “winning” records seems a bit unfair
-
You talk like you related to someone on the TC coaching staff my guy! Harmony is the 8 seed yet has more wins (4) against teams with winning records than TC has total! Yes TC played 8 playoff teams and beat one while harmony played 5 playoff teams and won won twice! I’m still arguing that you should not be rewarded for LOSING
-
Congrats you would have 4 wins 2 of which would come against the same team! But go ahead with the six seed with 3 wins
-
3-7 and they are a SIX seed! I mean was the rest of the bracket THAT weak?

To play out this moronic logic, if say FAU schedules Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State, Georgia, USC, Penn State, and Oregon and loses every game, but beats the avg teams on its schedule, some of you would say they deserve a shot in say a 12 team ncaa playoff?
That’s my logic! A team that did not win ONE non conference game is talked about like a shoe-in state playoff team that some people credit as “established top area team” yes I’m looking at you Columbia! Who have they beaten? I’ll wait….Martin county who at 7-2 has played a horrible schedule? I mean yes they beat Vero after Veros QB goes down…but 3-6 and we act like they a shoe-in playoff team with ZERO quality wins! So what quality LOSSES a thing now?
-
The local paper had an article, behind pay wall, arguing that TC deserves a playoff spot due to quality of opponents it lost too this season…they finished 3-7 with Wins over Fort Pierce Central, Martin county, and Centennial and losses to Chaminade, Jesuit, STA, Kissimmee Osceola to name a few….what do you guys think? I feel it’s like arguing that Vanderbilt should make a bowl game due to the quality of opponents they lose too every season….if they had beaten one other district opponent they would be in as district champ! Just curious if SOS should count more than wins or if close losses are better, in your opinion, then wins against “inferior” opponents
-
Again let me reiterate that I’m not downplaying or minimizing TC…they should have beaten Vero! And anyone who thinks Vero, after losing a 4* QB committed to SMU, and the backup who got all the snaps leading up to the game is a top 10 team in any division in football is belittling the QB position! Vero is a 75% downfield pass team trying to run that offense with a 5’7” 140lb kid that takes all he’s got to throw the ball…so I stand by my statement Vero is NOT a top 10 team right now

Absolutely
In fact they dominated a good Martin County team that beat Vero Beach and nearly won the district title over them
If they had gotten into the playoffs every team in the region would have been potentially facing the most dangerous 8 seed in the state of Florida
Pump the brakes a minute…Vero beat TC with there 3 string QB and Vero is not a top 10 team in 4s… and I watch them play ALOT! So don’t try to make TC out to be world beaters!

I’m not going to defend Veros scheduling but at the same time TC is a loss to Chaminade Madonna away from not making playoffs…so playing a tough schedule and not getting in playoffs is worse, in my opinion, then playing a moderate schedule and getting in! Also Vero did beat Chaminade a couple yrs ago 21-0! And they did schedule Venice but the hurricanes those years made that impossible
-
WOW! Great defensive game…Vero loses its starting QB(starter already done for year) and the 3rd stringer goes the rest of the way! Most inspired defense I have season Vero play in a long time.

Nothing to do with playing talented teams! When your QB goes does in 1st half with you down a TD and your offense can’t seem to work without force feeding one guy it happens

This is the current 4S classification (66 teams) divided into 8 districts of 8/9 teams. Numerous states use a setup like this and have adjacent districts play 1 vs. 4, 2 vs. 3, 3 vs. 2, 4 vs. 1, in the first round of the playoffs. This would result in the same number of teams as currently make the playoffs. If you can't finish 4th or better in an 8-team district, you don't deserve to be in the playoffs. And it is decided on the field, not by some computer algorithm in California.
I can only speak for district 8 but I would not have a problem with that…longest distance game Martin county and Melbourne..so hour and half maybe 2 by bus

Alot of teams who schedule tough I'm sure aren't just doing it for the experience or to try to keep it close. I feel as though the majority are scheduling these games to prepare them for the type of teams or games they will come across deep into the playoffs. Also, I'm sure they feel like they can not only compete but win those games as well.
Even with Lake Gibson I'm sure they scheduled those games with the thought that they'll have core players back from the run they made last season and their top player who is the top DB in the nation. Little did they know they would lose those players
I agree I’m sorry I was still using Treasure Coast as an example…they play either 4-5 defending state champs to start the year and to break that up you have Kissimmee osceola at their place…but that’s a lot of pressure to put on kids to win second half of schedule! And one key injury and the season could be over…
-
Guess the issue is what is worth more…curbstomping an inferior team or scheduling defending state champions and HOPE you can keep it close…hard for kids to stay with the process when you getting destroyed by superior teams week by week…lot easier when you winning regardless of the competition

But I can’t remember who vero beat to get to lose to Northwestern in Orlando

1998 against Miami northwestern...final 21-7 northwestern
Is Treasure Coast a playoff team?

Rumor is EJ was not cleared to play until Monday and with no practice we’d-fri due to hurricane he didn’t get a lot of reps but I expect him to start vs Melbourne! Arunson has rehab when cast comes off today so he will not be playing again this season….I agree I believe Vero, at home, can win this game it’s just looking like the road is coming to an end though pretty soon unless EJ can really learn the offense is less than 2 total weeks of practice
