Gulliver Prep beat Barbara Goleman 50-14.

I'm surprised at that Palmetto/Western score, although I saw Palmetto's defense did most of the damage. Western's weakness when it comes to the better 8A teams will probably be its offense. Doesn't look like they'll have enough firepower. It won't matter in district play I think, but if they want to beat an STA or advance deep in the playoffs, the offense will have to tighten up bc the defense should be fine.

Bishop Moore 34, West Orange 34

Bishop Moore led game with 1:30 left and a 1st and 10 on West Orange 20 yard line; West Orange had one timeout left. Instead of taking knee three times and securing victory, BM QB throws an interception at WO goal line that is returned deep into BM territory. WO ties score with :05 left and BM then blocks PAT to preserve tie. Nothing like "snatching a tie from the jaws of victory". BM gave WO three TDs on turnovers (5 turnovers total). BM can't be making sloppy mistakes and bad decisions like this if they hope to beat Edgewater next Friday. Edgewater was a 41-7 winner over Dr Phillips.

Wakulla and Madison ended with Madison leading 27 - 26.  Wakulla had just scored and was lining up to kick the extra point to tie when the game was stopped due to lightning.  Both teams look real good.

TRAJAN01, is there any more information that you could possibly provide about Madison County? Thank you.

Can KOCs be pushed back a day to Saturday?  (Yeah, I know the field conditions aren't likely to improve a lot between Friday evening and Saturday, but I have another thought in mind). 

With these billions of tourist dollars pouring into your state. How come they don't come up offin a few bucks for SPRINTURF Fields? Por lil Colquitt has THREE, and an IPF! Course, THAT'S what you'd expect from a national power!:)

That would require having people in Tallahassee that actually care about the public schools but you more likely to get an all expenses paid trip to Mars than you are going to see the state of Florida legislation actually care about public schools

Jambun82 they are pretty impressive...they definitely pass the eyeball test.  They are huge across the OL.  Their RB(#24 i think) is a very strong runner.  We are were able to run and throw on them...we hit a 60 yard post pattern and missed on another when the WR was running wide open behind the secondary.  I look for them to be contending for the state championship again in 1A.

TRAJAN01, thank you for this information, but could you tell me what type of offense Madison County runs? Are they predominately a running team? Do they play with any sort of tempo? Do they run a no-huddle? What type of defense do they run? Thank you again.

HELL, the legislators in Atlanta don't give a crap about HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL, public OR private, PERIOD! In three short years, we've gone from having the state championships in the Georgia Dome! To having them in the Mercedes Benz Stadium, at a cost of $600,000 for the two day event! And NOW, the finals have been moved OUTDOORS, where it's always COLD, WET, and DANGEROUS to travel, to Georgia State's joke of a renovated baseball field, into a football stadium that will barely seat the 7A fans at 25,000! And to top THAT if, they've stopped the GPB telecast, and they are NOW pay per view on NFHS.NET! A REAL SHEEEEAAAT SHOW! I use to be a BIG Arthur Blank fan, AND the Falcons! But with how little they respect high school football in Georgia with the way they've treated us since the Benz was built, they can KISS MY BUTT!

I'm not pointing fingers at anyone here, and I don't know if there's an easy solution, but I'll say this:  if I worked for the GHSAA or whoever it is that decides where to play the state championship games, it would be really hard for me to justify spending over half a million dollars in order to play the championship games indoors.

    • Here is a tough one. 1980 Gainesville or Tate. Both 13-1 Here is the tape of the tape. Please let me know what you think.    Tale of the tape.    Tate - class 4A only loss was against 8-2 Choctaw by 4 points  beat 12-1 Miami Columbus in the title game 35-7 but the game was in Pensacola. Meaning Columbus had to drive almost 10 hours  Gainesville - class 3A only loss was against 10-1 Palatka by 8 points  beat Titusville 21-0 in the title game on the road in Titusville
    • For 1997 I picked Carol City over Raines. It was tough but CC finished top 5 in the nation according to USAToday. And they played a tougher schedule. It’s tough when you have the top 2 teams both undefeated. 
    • Yeah in the 70’s-90’s the debate will most likely be between the top 2 largest class state champs 
    • 1976 - Godby HS went 14-0, defeated ledgendary Gene Cox, Leon Lions for the 1st time in school history in its last game of the regular season. Beat a Carol City Team, (that would come back the next year to win the 1977 state title), 21-15 in Lakeland, FL for the 1976 4A title. Two members of that Godby team (Sammy Knight, Chris Hobbs) would then lead FAMU to a upset win over the University of Miami. 1978 - Meritt Island - Beat Carl Madison coached (going to see the name Carl Madison alot through out the 80's),Pine Forrest for the 4A state Title 20-16 and would go on to be repeat state champs winning the 1979 state 4A state title as well, seeing Pine Forrest once again in the Finals 1979 - Merritt Island - Beat Pine Forrest 19-14 1980 - Argument could be made that 3A state Champ Gainesville HS was the states best, as they defeated Titusville on Titusville's home field 21-15, but in the end Carl Madison's (who we'll talk about again in the 80's), Tate HS has to be considered the state best destorying Miami Columbus HS 35-7! 1981 - Again 3A would again have to be where the state's best team played. Palatka after struggling in its 1st round game went on to dominate evenutally winning the state title 42-2 over Suncoast. Unlike Vero Beach (which won the 4A state itle that year), Palatka was loaded with star power, with 2 of its players eventually playing in the NFL (John L Williams, and Jarvis Williams) 1982 - Going 3A once again as Titusville would shutout 3 of its 4 playoff opponents, winning the state title over Osceola 33-0 1983 - 4A Manatee High School goes 14-0 for its 1st state title and the beginning of a dynasty through out the 80's and into the early 90's   more later.......
