columbiafan gonna go on a limb and call the upset as OXBRIDGE STUNS IMG AND THE ENTIRE STATE WITH A TD AS TIME EXPIRES

 

-Columbiahighfan

That is definitely out on a limb Columbiahigfan! You know Oxbridge will likely be without their best player, right? ( Not that it will make that much of difference IMO)

 

If that happens it will stun more then the entire state, that will stun the Nation I think.

If that happens, I will personally drive up to Lake City and buy you dinner at your favorite restaurant within a couple weeks!

Whos out BH?

 

I'm not sure anyone is out but I know that back in the Royal Palm Beach game that Traivon Leonard had a elbow injury and I heard something about him being out about 4 weeks which could have him up in the air to return against IMG on thursday.  Has to suck healing up from an injury and returning versus IMG  :blink: ...

He would be best off painting a red target on that arm

If img got a brain then they will have already known that He may or may not be back this week and that He likely not 100% lol

Of course they know that stuff but regardless, it is not like IMG is going to change their game because of Leonard ( no disrespect).  They practice versus kids of his level (or better) on a daily basis....

I feel that Oxbridge is going to have a hard time even staying in this game and making it respectable. They have played only one really decent team, Flanagan. Carol City seems to be so so and American Heritage is down this year. Oxbridge is mostly a ground and pound team that lives or dies through Sr RB Antuan Burgess, although they do have a couple of other good backs. If Burgess, as stated, is slowed by injury then the IMG defense will bottle up their running game and the Oxbridge passing game is nothing to write home about. IMG has beaten quality teams including flying out to California and defeating an undefeated (now 5-1) Centennial team. I also don't think that Oxbridge can stop IMG Sr QB Kellen Mond who has over 300 ypg both passing and rushing. He is also up for the top QB in the nation honors. I would love to see another 3A team defeat arguably the number one team in the nation. But, just "ain't" gonna happen IMHO. Of course, this is my opinion only, having researched team strengths, schedules, and stats. Others may have differing ideas on how this game will progress and I'd like to hear those thoughts for my own edification. :)

Ehh I might just favor Carol City over the rest of Dade right now. Their record doesn't show how good they are. I think Carol City beats Flanagan this year by 10 at least. Just ask Lakeland and Miami Central.

I assumed that Antuan Burgess was the best player for Oxbridge and that he was the player who was injured. He seems to have the best stats, anyway. Traivon Leonard has very few stats so I wonder how he can be their top player? 

 

With Flanagan and Carol City, they were both tight games. 7-6 and 14-7. So Oxbridge must have a pretty good defense. However, I don't know if they have a good enough offense to score very much against IMG. I do know that IMG has the offensive power to score big against any team.

    • Okay, how about that STA vs. Ida Baker matchup in your first round?  Does your analogy extend to South Florida slappies?  My opinion is simply that no one (except CoachGraham, apparently) would be interested in the 1 vs. 512, 2 vs. 511, and 200 other mismatches such a format would produce, regardless of geography.  But I could be wrong.  And now I'm thinking I should have skipped college.  
    • Complaining about North Florida slappies losing to South Florida powers is like someone graduating high school complaining that companies are only hiring college graduates and not them. And then a company saying ok to make it fair, we will open division and only hire high school graduates.     
    • First I want to express my apologies for my absence the last few months. Without going into much detail I have had some personal life struggles I have been dealing with on top of figuring out the direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com in. Things have finally settled out some over the last few weeks although I am not completely out of the woods just yet. Some of the decisions about what direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com have been forming over this time while I went through things. Part of me wondered if it was time to go, but really it is not at all. Thankfully, a loyal supporter near me in Gainesville decided to put their mouth where their money is and did a little investing and today FloridaHSFootball.com launched its first-ever Mobile App. With that said it comes with the sunset of the MVP Membership Subscriptions and thus FloridaHSFootball.com will be 100% free for the first time in a while. This comes as needing to get the clearances with Apple and Google and the current subscription platform we have is not syncing with Apple's system nor with the App itself. Its best we go in this direction to grow fans again and being able to put them facing forward with an app on their phone going forward. Here are the download links for the apps: iOS (Apple): https://apps.apple.com/us/app/floridahsfootball-com/id6477621728 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floridahsfootball.app&hl=en_US&gl=US   For now the forums will not be available directly in the app. At some point I maybe looking at changing the whole forum software that could eventually integrate into the app. It will be a while before this happens so things will go on as they are here.   I also apologize for any of the spam and troll accounts that have managed to find their way around the security protocols in setting up new accounts. It seems every day these things find ways to pass through control systems. I am going to be looking at getting this solved and will keep an eye on things here as we go along.   Please feel free to reach out to me if you all need anything, want to chat or have any suggestions.   -- Josh
