Of the 42 games above, one could argue that only the 7 below were against "strong" Miami-Dade teams.  However, none of the teams below was likely the best Miami-Dade had to offer at the time.   

This year's game versus Central may be the first time ever that nationally-ranked STA and Miami-Dade squads meet!  

• Homestead 1982(loss), 1983(win), 1984(loss)
• Edison 2003(loss)
• Columbus 2012(win)
• Booker T Washington 2015(win) and 2016(loss)

I have Central ranked 2nd in 6a currently so this may be best Miami Dade team that STA has played as of late

Maybe, but you're forgetting STA vs Booker T Washington was supposed to be that way.   STA broke BTW's 41 win streak (admittedly not in their prime, but state champ), also in 2016 BTW was ranked nationally and just imploded after their win.   I mean those games were highly regarded as BTW was the best in Miami the year before their first matchup.   Technically Central didn't even make the playoffs last year so if Central were to have a bad year the story will be that STA scheduled Central after a non playoff year.  (which most of us know is BS, but haters will forget)

Anyways, just playing a little devil's advocate here.  I'm very excited for the game.  If STA's offense isn't able to move the chains they will be in trouble.   STA has always been a great run stopping team, but with Central if you slip on one tackle it could go for 6.   I just hope there are no injuries, BC It's going to be an extremely physical game with hard hits.  Absolutely no doubt about that!

 Central was a mistake away from beating both BG and IMG at their place last year.   Think about that.   STA had a win against SJB from Cali, but it was at home and went OT.   Wasn't pretty.    I'd probably give Central the edge at this point, only because I don't know if Aquinas can run the ball.   So far I haven't been that  impressed with Aquinas' highly rated RB, but the Oline wasn't playing lights out last year either so...

That's good history and thank you.  I could not remember if BTW was nationally ranked when they played.  And it makes complete sense that when STA scheduled them they expected to be playing the best Miami-Dade had to offer.  One thing is for sure, regardless of where either team ends up in the rankings..Central and STA are wonderful programs and to my knowledge this is the first time they will ever meet in their long histories.   Even if both teams imploded this year, it should be a good show, and that's all fans can ask for.
