Check out these teams, each averaging 20-21 pts allowed per playoff game.  Note that most of the teams above averaged 14-17 points allowed per playoff game and their frequency of shutouts is greater.  They say defense wins championships, and "they" are right. 

If your team is allowing 20 or more points per game during an individual season, don't count on winning a state title, regardless of how potent your offense is.   Most state title winners allow 17 points or less, on average.

Vero Beach

  • 39-33 in the playoffs
  • 6 shutouts
  • Allowed an average of 20 points per playoff game
  • Worst playoff defeat: 37-6 loss to Lakeland in 1986.

Columbia

  • 36-33 in the playoffs
  • 5 shutouts
  • Allowed an average of 21 points per playoff game
  • Worst playoff defeat: 47-6 loss to Pine Forest in 1988.  .

Deerfield Beach

  • 38-28 in the playoffs
  • 4 shutouts
  • Allowed an average of 20 points per playoff game
  • Worst playoff defeat: 41-3 loss to Apopka in 2001.

Surely this must be a typo. DB has been in the highest class since the early 2000s at least. By contrast Madison over this time has been in the lowest three classes. I doubt these two teams have met in the playoffs over the past 19 seasons.

It's not Madison County.  Over the past 20 years, MC has been one of the most successful small schools in the playoffs.  But prior to that, they really weren't in the picture.  Except for a handful of games, they have kept their playoff losses relatively close.    

  • 55-19 in the playoffs
  • 12 shutouts
  • Allowed an average of 23 points per playoff game
  • Worst playoff defeat: Osceola 32-0 back in the 90's

That was my second guess. My first is St. Thomas.

    • Bayside went up to play Lowndes and lost 50-0 and 69-0 in back to back years for $25,000 total. I think that’s why so many garbage FL teams play good GA teams. 
    • And did he “beg”? Or did he simply ask one sentence and see if anyone can help with fundraising? Every single team we have been apart of from 4 years old to high school has fund raised. I don’t remember begging anyone for money. But I guess I’m not a millionaire who coaches a transfer factory. Lol. 
    • ALL programs in the state of Florida would love to have more money, and really need more. Teddy happens to have enough name recognition and reach- including wealthy current and former NFL players- that he may well succeed in getting money. Whether he succeeds or not, he's calling attention to the problem. (Of course, if the number of schools investing in football programs was sharply reduced, and all of the money which has been spread thin among poor programs was consolidated towards a smaller number of super programs, those super programs would be financed much more effectively.)
    • Could be for kids out of the zone who attend the school who are in a family situation that makes it extremely difficulty to attend practices, school, games etc all the time. Could be a single parent who works 2 jobs who has a kid transfer to MNW in hopes that the exposure could earn him a scholarship. We have no idea unless it’s explained. Ubers are expensive as hell. More than taxis used to be. My son’s school is 8 miles from our house. He needed a ride one day for football practice so we looked up Uber and they wanted $40!!
    • I don't know why this state is so far behind every other state football powers regarding coaching salaries and financial support?  More evidence is Teddy having to use $14k of his own money last year.  On a side note, isn't paying for uber rides an impermissible benefit?  I mean if you didn't recruit kids out of your area, they wouldn't need those rides anyway Teddy...  but I digress.  https://www.the-sun.com/sport/14663753/teddy-bridgewater-miami-northwestern-donations/#:~:text=The free agent quarterback Bridgewater,team%2C the Miami Northwestern Bulls.&text=Bridgewater made a long plea,by the school through donations.
