OldSchoolLion 1,827 Posted May 9 Report Share Posted May 9 This team gave up less than 100 points on its way to a 14-1 record and the school's first state title. That included 6 shutouts, including multiple shutouts during its playoff run. In the regional finals, they shut out a team that came into the game 12-0 and averaging 43 points per game. They won the state title game without completing a single pass. Their defense never allowed more than 14 points in a game during the season. Who was this great state championship team?

badbird 1,546 Posted May 10 Report Share Posted May 10 Flanagan's 2015 defense wasn't bad. Didn't give up a TD in the first half of any game until the state title. Just A Coach 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

They did finish 2015 12-2 with 6 shutouts, including 3 in the playoffs, and they gave up less than 100 points total for the season. . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

badbird 1,546 Posted May 11 Report Share Posted May 11 2014 STA defense was pretty good also lol. They put a running clock on everyone in the playoffs until the state title game. They only won that one by 31 THIS_IS_DILLARD 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rainey busted off a 70 plus yard run middle of the fourth quarter to beat us. The defense in 2006 wasn't anything to write home about. It was an uneven group. Really good DL in John Brown, really good safeties in Black and Wilks, and a lot of otherwise average guys. They struggled to get stops vs. St. X, Kathleen, Mainland (at times) and STA. Perhaps the 2005 version was the one he meant to say? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nolebull813 658 Posted May 20 Report Share Posted May 20 It’s gotta be the 1965 Bonifay Blue Devils of Holmes County!!!! They went 12-0 and won the state title. Out of the 12 games, they pitched TEN shutouts and the other 2 games the opponents only scored 6 points each. So the defense gave up 12 points in 12 games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
