Though the 2016 game was technically a forfeit win for Glades Central

Very strange time to be playing tonight. 9 PM????????? Glad that it's on ESPNU. Should be a very good game as Hoover is never a pushover at any time.

7A St Thomas Aquinas scored 41 points in the first half and cruised past Miramar 48-6.  In 10 games this season, the Raiders have outscored their opponents 461-67.   Interestingly, the last 4 years that STA has beaten Miramar by 30 or more points(07, 08, 15 and 16), they won a state title.  It's a good thing they don't have a qb this year, or they might be a threat in the playoffs. :rolleyes:

7A Viera had a rough start to the season, but come into the playoffs on a 7-game winning streak after blasting 8-1 Heritage 51-13.

7A Fletcher pulled out the win over Mandarin in OT.  That's 7 of the last 8 they have taken in this series.  This team is 10 points away from being 9-1 this season.

7A Riverdale, 5A Godby and 5A Hardee finish undefeated regular seasons.  Wow!  

6A Escambia claims Ye Olde Wash Boiler Tub 19-14 in this great rivalry.

5A Jesuit makes it 19 in a row over Tampa Catholic with a 17-7 win.

4A Cocoa had been allowing an average of 24 points per game to date and gave up 42 to Rockledge.   Ouch.

      Lake Minneola New HC Quit After 3 days

      By nolebull813 · Posted

      I’m not saying it doesn’t occur. What I am saying is that everything is case by case so if you are accusing a specific coach/team of cheating, I would at least like to see the evidence of the accusation. Because if you don’t then you are basically defaming them with gossip

      Are you saying illegal recruiting does not occur in Florida ?     Wake up and take your blinders off

      Lake Minneola New HC Quit After 3 days

      Dang shame. Wonder what it was about. Wonder if the principle was meddling out of his element.    There was a story near me about Land O Lakes High. Before the season, 2 freshman were slap boxing and other kids were filming it. One kid was obviously winning over the other with the kids in the background cheering it on. So when it got leaked, it was interpreted as hazing. As if all the kids in the background were sanctioning it.    Without one second of investigation the principal shut the entire football program down. Varsity season cancelled over 2 freshman slap boxing. It caused a shit storm. Local news swarmed the school. Parents outraged. Protesting outside the office demanding the principal be fired.    They finally asked some quick questions and it was determined to be exactly what it was originally said it was. Football was reinstated but JV missed the first game over it.    The principal was some punk pencil neck who looks like he never played a sport in his life and many people came out and said he had it out for the football program and he was the same way at his old school.    I say all that to say is this a similar case of some pencil neck principal who never played sports trying to undermine and butt in to something that they are way out their element on?

      Word is, Coach Banks the former head coach was escorted off campus last week after a heated discussion with the principle. from what i have been told this stems from banks talking to the paper about the program.

      They definitely would have been competitive. They had a really good and really young OL coming back. They also had settled into a pattern of getting plenty of transfers.
