I don't know man DP this year is struggling but who knows they could heat up closer to playoff time. But right now I see them struggling getting past Cen10.

Naw I got money on DP, their schedule is stronger and playoff experience will get Dr Phillips past Treasure Coast teams

Like i said they could start to heat up like they usually do. This next game against Wekiva should show us where there at right now.

Folks, I don't care who Vero plays during the regular season, it is not the magic bullet for the results below.  This is more about specific game prep/focus/execution.  The last three years, Vero lost after an easy playoff win.  They failed to shift gears. Having a brutal regular season schedule does not guarantee mental readiness/focus during the playoffs.

Somebody once said "perfect practice makes perfect."  We spend a lot more time on the practice field than the playing field.

2017 Riverview 35-28     4 turnovers and 28 points allowed by VB in second qtr; Riverview rb runs for 230 yards on 51 carries

2016 Dr P 34-24       20 points allowed in second qtr; fumbled punt return led to Dr P TD and VB fumbled in red zone too

2015 Osceola 42-35     21 points allowed in third qtr; 4 TO's for Vero, including pick 6 on first throw of game; 2 Osceola rb's combine for 278 yards rushing on 37 carries

2014 Manatee 47-28     28 second-half points for Manatee; 415 rushing yards for Manatee

2013 Manatee 34-28     445 rushing yards for Manatee

You right because last year and this season we've been beaten state champions in the regular season and haven't even got past the second round of the playoffs....you know if we don't make it to the state semifinals atleast this year, then it'll be 20 years since that happened (1998)....

2017 and 2018 defending or past state champions/runner ups beaten by Vero...

Oscar Smith 

Venice 

Pahokee 2x

Lincoln 

And if we go back to around 2013 it's like this.... 

Palm Bay 2x (KOC 2013,2014) 

Dwyer (Spring Game 2015)

Palm Beach Gardens (2013-2016)

Viera (KOC 2017)

Oscar Smith (Reg 2017)

Pahokee (Reg 2017,2018)

Lincoln (Reg 2017)

Venice (Reg 2018)

All these results and it won't make a difference for the playoffs, that's why I feel like Dr Phillips for example could sneak in the playoffs with an OK record and potentially upset Vero cuz of that brutal schedule they got imo

Maybe the problem is you are looking at teams as if they were at state the year you all played them 

 

How many of those teams on the list played at state the year Vero beat them?

In 2012, Vero had 6 turnovers(5 fumbles) against East Lake and allowed 14 second half points.  In 2011, Vero led 22-21 but allowed 20 unanswered points in second half points against East Lake. 

Except for the playoff loss last year, Vero was in every playoff game from 2011-2016, either ahead at halftime or losing by no more than 10 points.  It's not like they have been completely outclassed by their playoff opponents. They were plenty good enough to compete, they simply did not execute.

Most of their playoff games were lost in the second half. There are clear trends in the playoff losses.  The coaches need to take a hard look in the mirror.  I'm sure they have.

3 to 4 don't count our teams because like I said some were defending state champs or some made it deep.... 

Palm Beach Gardens went to the fourth round of the playoffs in 2013(we beat em 35-27 coulda been worse)

Oscar Smith were state runner ups last year when we beat em 

Pahokee were defending state champs when they came to play us last year and where on a 15 game winning streak 

Venice is the defending champs this year and we're their only loss right now

Vero got beat 29-7 by East Lake in 2012 turnovers turnovers turnovers kill us.......but also look how many points we've allowed in the playoffs since 2008 most of the playoff games coulda been worse especially that Osceola game, they shoulda won 49-35 actually but TD was called back and Dr Phillips was up in the 4th qt like 34-17 in 2016 and imo I think the Riverview game woulda been worse too if it was at Sarasota

    • I was actually itching to treat some wager some money on some sports matches that are happening above-board now. I wanted to let you guys identify that I did spot what I ruminate on to be the kindest site in the USA. If you fall short of to get in on the spirit, check it out-moded: [url=https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/]https://pokeronline.guru/online-gambling/[/url]
    • Perhaps the best RB in Tampa Bay iin 2023 saw his program close, and is looking for a home. If he stays in the area,Venice is a good bet. (Lakeland may be as well).
    • And if that same newsletter asked the Osceola County Sheriff Department, what do you think the response would be? If you asked, members of the Chamber of Commerce? (Essentially a union of businesses) If you asked a group of nurses? If you asked a group of lawyers? Also a union cares about the working conditions of their members, but the working conditions of teachers are the learning conditions of students as well. People are attracted to careers because of the values that come with those careers. Political Parties attract people based on their values. So it shouldn't be surprising that certain professions attract certain people in certain careers. You act as if the principal's first question when we have a 5,000+ teachers shortage in this state is "who do you vote for? And are you a member of the union?"
    • I feel like y'all are always solid so I don't see y'all going no worse than 7-3. Biggest question mark for Cocoa is their O-line since they are only returning 1 and on the defensive side they only return their blue chip edge in their front 7 
    • Coach Wiseman, let me just preface this by saying that you were the best HC Sarasota's program has had in the last 20+ years. You brought them from being a perpetual losing program to the doorstep of competing with Venice for a district title and a deep playoff run. SHS will curse the day they fired you now that they are back in a rut. You are a true class act, and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.  Our backfield is certainly sparse right now. We do have Dorian Jones, a rising sophomore runningback whom did considerably well considering his limited playing time last season. Our offense will need an overhaul with the graduation of 3 offensive linemen and almost our entire receiving corps. Our defensive line will be strong with the return of Ke'shawn Vaughn, Elijah Jones, and Asharri Charles. Our linebacking corps graduates virtually everybody but should have at least one bright spot with the return of Ben Zarkawiecz. Our defensive backfield is still a work in progress with the graduation of Lester and Platt. At the moment, we have more question marks than exclamation points. And that's not a good feeling with the kind of competition Venice is going to face.
