Regarding the two games involving Orlando area teams, Edgewater and Apopka, I think the Edgewater vs Lincoln game will be a blowout win for Edgewater to the tune of over a 30 point margin win by Edgwater.

In the Apopka vs Bartram Trail game, if Apopka is to have a solid shot, it will have to play mistake free football. That game could be close, but the edge belongs to BT.

I’m going with Lincoln. 

Edgewater has one good win against a depleted Jones team. 

They are fools gold. The kind of chain that leaves a green ring around your neck.

And what makes Lincoln not fools gold?

 

Because they beat palmetto who nearly got bounced by a 4-6 team?

Apopka has a shot, but man, BT hasn't shown any chinks in the armor since the PV game.  I thought Spruce Creek could give them some trouble but that game was over when the ball was kicked.

I agree. BT will be very difficult to beat at their place. If Apopka is to win they will have to punch them in the mouth early and maintain that for four quarters. I have BT a 10+ point favorite going into the game.

The VB/TC rematch should be fantastic, the regular season game was won by VB by a point in OT, had TC converted any of their 5 two point conversions they would have won. This one will be played at Vero.

In all reality this is a 1 vs 2 matchup in 8A south in terms of RPI. Vero had 8A South’s best RPI, TC was 2nd, (2nd and 4th in 8A, ) but because they’re in the same district, TC was relegated to a 5 seed.

I don’t do the daisy chains. Lincoln isn’t fools gold because they aren’t portrayed as a top team like Edgewater. 

Edgewater got blown out by the only quality team on the schedule. I don’t count Jones because Jones had almost half their starters out. 

Edgewater is being put on a pedestal for doing nothing. They haven’t won anything, and have no equity built to give them the benefit of the doubt. 

I wouldn’t bet on Lincoln ever due to their inconsistent play, but if they beat Edgewater I wouldn’t bat an eye, and would never consider it remotely close to an upset

So what happens if Edgewater blows Lincoln out?

Then add it to the list of 50 plus other blowouts in the playoffs so far. Lmao! 

If they blow them out it won’t show much because if they truly are who the posters here say they are then that would be expected. Lincoln can be blown out as easy as they can win big. They are Dr Jekyll/Mr Hyde. You don’t know what to expect 

I want to see them against a real team. Like Marietta. The teams in their region are scrubs. Panhandle/Big Bend teams that should be “handled”

Truth is you don’t know how good Edgewater is because they lost to the only good team on their schedule pretty convincingly. I want to see them against the Region 2 winner

So wekiva and Winter Park are nothing teams or something because Edgewater blew both them out as well?

 

What exactly has Marietta done to be considered the only good team Edgewater has played? Just because they from GA?

 

 

When one those power GA teams come to FL during regular season and win like they do when hosting teams from FL, let me know lol

You will see them against the Region 2 winner in two weeks. It will be at home for Armwood or Lakeland. We will see what happens then

Western vs Miami Palmetto in 8A looks like a good on paper.

That’s the only way to truly know where they stand in the state. 

If they lose to Armwood or Lakeland then it confirms everything I been saying. They aren’t even close to elite in the state, and are fools gold. 

Beat one of them, and they can stake a claim as one of the best.

Correct. Wekiva and Winter Park are nothing teams. This year. Both aren’t very good.

We will see what we will see. I am sure they will score over 21 against either of them. The acid test is Edgewater's defense which gives up its share of points.

Good luck to anyone that has to block #88 for Apopka.

    • First I want to express my apologies for my absence the last few months. Without going into much detail I have had some personal life struggles I have been dealing with on top of figuring out the direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com in. Things have finally settled out some over the last few weeks although I am not completely out of the woods just yet. Some of the decisions about what direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com have been forming over this time while I went through things. Part of me wondered if it was time to go, but really it is not at all. Thankfully, a loyal supporter near me in Gainesville decided to put their mouth where their money is and did a little investing and today FloridaHSFootball.com launched its first-ever Mobile App. With that said it comes with the sunset of the MVP Membership Subscriptions and thus FloridaHSFootball.com will be 100% free for the first time in a while. This comes as needing to get the clearances with Apple and Google and the current subscription platform we have is not syncing with Apple's system nor with the App itself. Its best we go in this direction to grow fans again and being able to put them facing forward with an app on their phone going forward. Here are the download links for the apps: iOS (Apple): https://apps.apple.com/us/app/floridahsfootball-com/id6477621728 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floridahsfootball.app&hl=en_US&gl=US   For now the forums will not be available directly in the app. At some point I maybe looking at changing the whole forum software that could eventually integrate into the app. It will be a while before this happens so things will go on as they are here.   I also apologize for any of the spam and troll accounts that have managed to find their way around the security protocols in setting up new accounts. It seems every day these things find ways to pass through control systems. I am going to be looking at getting this solved and will keep an eye on things here as we go along.   Please feel free to reach out to me if you all need anything, want to chat or have any suggestions.   -- Josh  
    • They can definitely beat Central. My bulls is a toss up but I feel we should have the edge. EJ will be hard to stop though. Glad they not in 2A with us. 
    • Blountstown at WS Neal AL Sept 27th. Also the Tate vs. Faith Academy game is no more. Tate will be playing Escambia instead now.
    • I like it if there is only 4 classes 
    • I like the match. An entire COUNTY against a small little Catholic school. Toss up.
