Columbia vs Middleburg (district championship on the line Friday on homecoming)

Columbia can clinch their second straight district championship with a win over Middleburg and a Orange Park win over Ridgeview

 

Columbia is 3-3 on the year with their losses coming to playoff teams in Buchholz, Union and Trinity Christian. After early season struggles with turnovers Columbia seems to have found a winning formula of a good running game and dominant defensive play which was shown in the second half of the Orange Park game as Columbia gained over 100 yards rushing and forced 4 second half turnovers

 

Middleburg comes in at 3-4 and winners of 3 straight games but those 3 wins came over teams a combined 6-14 on the season. I'm not as familiar with Middleburg but they seem to have a decent RB but Columbia has already faced teams with a good RB this year including TCA with 2 D1 level RBs and held them in check for a good bit of the game so I don't think the Middleburg RB will bring anything bigger than what we have already faced this season 

 

I expect Columbia to be fired up at home knowing they have a chance to win a district championship and first consecutive district championship since the 4 year run from 97-00. On a safe bet I like Columbia by 21 here

Didn’t you say Middleburg was supposed to be good because of the transfers? Lol 

Their best player is a 4* RB committed to Utah and he was a transfer from Oakleaf

 

Riverside got a similar amount of transfers last year to what Middleburg got this year, maybe Clay County is just that bad

    • When you right you right fam. At the end of the day. Anybody in dade, broward or palm beach know bout Dillard and know we don’t duck no team home or away. We down to line up any day.    but none of that puts points on the score board or guarantee victory. You can be ready and confident all you want, but if your team doesn’t have the personnel to match a national power house who gets in loads of transfers year and year out, 9/10 that score is going to be fairly lopsided.    and as much as I bleed Dillard day and night, and as much as it pains me to say. Dillard is not in Miami central, norland, sta, or chaminades league going into the this upcoming season. Let them beat up on each other.    I believe this is a perfect schedule for Dillard if they’re atleast still an above avg program they should win this district with ease and have no more then 2 loses this year.    if not and they struggle even with this schedule then Dillard as a program is most def going backwards and I would hate that for my Alma mater. 
    • I agree with you on everything you said. Why play these powerhouses and get the butt kicked out of you. Yes you're not running away from good opponents, however what does a 63-0 loss due to the morale of a bunch of young men.
    • Welcome to the new wonderful wild west of high school football in Florida. We need to create a new position at each school. Recruiting coordinator. Because that is the only way to win big in this state now at the highest levels. The haves can turn into have not by losing one cheater coach. 
    • There are zero coaches on campus, every single coach left 
    • There is 1,750 kids in the school. That would be their fault if they can’t field a team of 40-50 players. I know it sucks about the mass exodus. I get it. But even though they won’t be competitive for the time being they should at least have enough varsity players returning, JV kids, and newcomers to field a team.    They should have had an assist at coach resume spring workouts, and maybe got in on a jamboree with lesser teams or held an inter squad scrimmage. But to cancel everything seems a bit erratic
