I'm even more convinced that either central or Miami northwestern will beat IMG

 

I can't see img beating them both back to back

Yea i think MC will beat em and doesn't MC have the most wins over ranked opponents???

[Zoe Boy]

I think both teams can beat IMG ... To me this is not the best IMG team compared from other years n like I say they just got punch IMG in the mouth...

GREAT win for Miami central!!   Now, I think you guys are overreacting a bit on Central's chances vs IMG though.    Hope Central can beat em, but no one in the nation is going to bully IMG's front.   If they can mix up the pass game successfully like they did on that first drive of the second half vs Gorman, I think their chances increase.   Wish they had a better kicking game though. (punt/kickoff)

What's the deal with Perriman?  He going to be ok?  He's a boss, MC gonna need him back!

IMG has the possibility of being beat by any of the top 5-10 in Florida if those teams play their best

This is a fair statement based on SOS and being 3-0.  Slaughtering Chaminade-Madonna, getting by BTW and beating Bishop Gorman is not too shabby.  There may be better teams in the state but no team has achieved more thus far other than IMG arguably.

Not overreacting but I'm not gonna say MC is the best team in the state but I think with the qb that can make playes with his feet and the running game and I understand IMG can't be bullied but I'm not impressed with them so far... MNW has the best chance of beating them but MC showed me something last night with the oline n dline and far as perriman I hope kid ain't tear nothing..

I would add as (topnotch305 has mentioned  a few times) Central's secondary seems be suspect at times.  They are going to get beat on some big plays  at times but  let's keep in mind  the offenses/WRs that they have faced-but you better get in on them on that play.  I would say the Central secondary and defense as a whole has done well demonstrating  the cliche "bend but don't break" defense as the whole defense seems to have a extra gear sometimes inside their own redzone.  They have shown some consistency with this against CM, BTW, and BG.

@BrowardHandicapper

I agree the secondary is the weaker element in their D (still good).   Not sure about the bend and don't break, as BG's two scores and at least one BTW TD were on home run passes.  

That's just going to happen though with aggressive D's (vs elite pass Os) 

[954gator]

Central makes up for the secondary by bringing some serious HEAT on the qb.   Worked excellent vs BG save those two big plays.

Agree. They did get beat twice, and are going to get beat by the deep ball to elite Os at times but you better find pay dirt on that play.  BG was inside the 30 or even red zone a few times in that game and they could not finish.  BTW had several and even CM had a couple of blown chances that were shut down in the red zone.  Basic stuff- when the field shrinks, DBs have the advantage as the flys are diminished. 

Keep in mind after getting attacked through the air constantly, it is going to be a matter of time before they get a little stronger back there after covering so many elite WRs on the season.

We all have to realize that IMG has not lost a game in three years plus so far this year. That is after playing all over the country against the best powerhouses. I watched the game against Chandler and Centennial. I do believe that IMG struggled somewhat against Chandler but still won by over two TD's. It was also the first game of the season and at Chandler. Against Centennial they did better winning by three TD's also at Centennial. I don't feel that IMG's QB is one of the best they have had although he has a .653% passing average. The three headed monster of Hightower, Pledger, and Burton are virtually unstoppable. IMG regularly plays OOS whereas Central is lucky to play an OOS team once every two or three years. With that said they did defeat Bishop Gorman albeit by a very close score. IMO, it will be a very good game especially if it is in Miami. But, given the total experience that IMG has in big venues and their receiver corp being better than Central's DB's, IMG will have another win under their belt.

Central beating Bishop Gorman just made this game a lot more interesting. Pass rush of Central is going to put IMG to test. Hurried QB's tend to throw more Int's.

Well I'll start by saying their most recent loss was AHP in 2015

 

Centennial was taking it to IMG until img started targetting the qb and injured the number 1 and 2 qb which why at this point idc who beats them but someone needs to,  we don't need a dirty team being repped as our best team in the state 

 

Also keep in mind they play Miami Central and Miami Northwestern back to back weeks,  that seems to be the best chance of Img taking a loss because i can't think many teams who can win back to back weeks over those 2

Yup I don't but IMG kept all their starters in and went for the win and through a pick 6... The head coach even complained about AHP being too aggressive... So yes it was a KOC that got tooken serious..

[badbird]

img plays the following nationally ranked teams according to maxpreps.  If they run that schedule you have to be impressed.  A lot of those teams are also bringing in top talent

6,13,24,25,29,50,61,62,78

I know it got taken serious.  The bigger disappointment that year was AHP losing in the third round.  They were loaded

Img played 9 regular season games,  who the freak plays 9 games by choice? 

 

And i could have sworn i saw somewhere before the game that img was going to count that as 10th game because keep in mind they independent so they can schedule as many games and count them as they choose to do so, so that game could have counted if they wanted to therefore i count it as a loss

We going back to apopka again? 

 

Idc if it counted for the record,  what i had a issue with was when people acted like our teams treated it as nothing more than a exhibition when starters played entire game but same thing happened with AHP vs BTW but that was considered a real game 

 

Just because we ain't from south Florida dont mean we didn't take our games seriously and beilive it or not but if both teams had played the way they did that night the following week when it counted we still would have won, apopka had 5 turnovers to us having 0, we would have won a regular season matchup if they did same thing

Ain't that ironic

 

 

Img complains about them being too physical yet they go out and try to injure other teams

 

Sounds like they ok with it until the tables turn then they cry like babies
