Sleepers by region

[Tigerfan1]

According some of the folks i know from Madison the story is that one of the major employers left the county and over 1000 jobs left with them so some of the folks moved to Valdosta or Tally to find good paying jobs, dropping the enrollment # a lot, Also a new charter school opened up and took a few students away from MCH even though those students can still play at Madison. Don't fool yourself Madison is still a very good football team and is threat to win it all in 1A. Trenton was a really good football team last year and Madison was by far the best team we saw all year.

I remember when they were beating some pretty big name teams in 4A or the old 2A. Then all of a sudden they are in 1A. I know them Cowboys have grit. We played them in regional finals when Cocoa was on the north side of the divide. They were fierce competitors.  

 

Sorry to hear the reason they fell in classification was because of losing jobs. Kind of like Bell Glades. Some dang good teams suffer from the changing markets.

The team I'd keep my eye on is Winter Haven.  8-3 last year but no playoffs.  Their 3 losses: to Osceola 27-18, to Kathleen 23-13 and to Lakeland 14-13.  The return a lot of players, including a really good QB and a veteran coaching staff.

No bigger sleeper in South Florida Than Glades Central.

Explain to me how a 2015 second round playoff team that 99% of the people feel will be as good or better in 2016 has the status of "No bigger sleeper" in South Florida?

Good point, a sleeper can't be top 10 team in class

[DisabledAccount]

Only reason glades central not picked to win 4a is because BTW and cocoa in same side of bracket

[DisabledAccount]

Or at least go to state

Agree.  Glades Central is top 5 in 4A in pretty much everyone's poll and also has a history of being a successful program.

Sandalwood should be best public in duval this year, will see how far they go

Agree 100%. I had them as under the radar in the spring, but the cat is kind of out of the bag on them. Many expect Sandalwood to make some noise in 8A this year.

I have them falling in a close game to my eventual 8a pick Apopka in 3rd round but who knows, even though we should have been able to beat them in spring I will say they did have talent and seemed a few players wanted to transfer and load up at sandalwood this year to try and make a run so I'm gonna keep a eye on them and see how far that talented roster can go

That mandrian vs sandalwood game should be top 2 duval publics and should be a very competitive game late in season
