SO the district showdown is finally here you have the 4-1 boyd Anderson cobras and you have the 3-1 dillard panthers my panthers was on a bye last week that's why the cobras have 5 games played to dillard 4 but I will say this my panthers are rested and they are ready.!!! there are so many storylines surrounded this game you #1 this is a district game #2 this has always been a neighborhood rival game that draw big crowds and #3 you have a couple players who left dillard before the season started to go to boyd Anderson and some boyd Anderson players left and came to dillard with each team looking to make that STATEMENT so I'm excited to kick this game off Thursday.

I initially was thinking the Panthers win a close one, but Dillard rested off a bye and at home....Boyd has not seen a Defense like Dillard yet.  I gotta lean Dillard 34-16.

I was thinking that same exact thing I was watching some highlights of boyd Anderson last night there DL and OL look very small.! EXTREMLEY small and ely looked even smaller not to be funny but I almost thought it was a JV game and boyd Anderson q.b looks very small.! lol if dillard comes in this game focused witch they will they can roll.! dillards DL should swallow boyd Anderson's OL up everytime they have the ball.

Also I believe this will separate either team from the top to the low.

Well with Boynton Beach and Northeast as the only other teams in the District I would say the low is very clearly Northeast.  Boynton might be able to sniff Boyd but if Dillard wins this game with ease, they should win the District with east.

@slick you feel me but 1 thing about it though this game was exactly what I thought it be tough and gritty dillard as a team though just isn't disciplined they got a foul on almost everything possible tonight....HOLDING PERSONAL FOUL FALSE START EMPROACHMENT ...OFFSIDE ON THE OFFENSE...ILLEGAL SHIFT ...FALSE START ON A KICK OFF RETURN ....THEY WAS ON OFFENSE HAD THE BALL ON B.A 3O YARD LINE AND WENT BACK 35 YARDS IN PENALTIES ON THAT 1 DRIVE. SMH

Boyd Anderson is not on the level of Carol City and Central in my opinion, but Dillard struggled and if that's the case what's gonna happen in the 1st round of the playoffs. Either way you look at it one of them will play Dillard.

@slick that's why I said if the coaches don't tighten up dillard will get blasted in the 1st round.! ....real talk our defense is legit.! they did there thing tonight but its only so long a defense can be on the field before they get worn out....DILLARD as a offense is very VERY predictable it was easy to see that tonight.! ....instead of going deep with your to 6'3 WR's where its a clear MISMATCH.! you rather throw 5 yards BEHIND the line of scrimmage and want the slot receiver to make something happen?? that's crazy.! DILLARD IS MY TEAM I LOVE EM.!!! but now that im older im alost a REALIEST it use to make me sick to my stomach when dillard use to lose couldn't eat sleep none of that but now im at the age where I know whats up. dillard have to do better coaching has been there DOWNFALL for years.

Was that an upset lastnight Or BA were expected to win?

Depends who you ask.  Most projections that I saw had Dillard winning between 1 and 6 points though. Dillard's Defense looked better than Boyd's going in and Boyd's Offense looked better going in to this game.  I though Dillard would handle them at Home though.

I heard Boyd lost a top WR with a head injury and their QB messed up his knee - both in the 2nd Quarter tough.  I would have thought Dillard would have capitalized on that and took care of business the second half.  Dillard did have 120 yards in Penalties which is a lot but doubt that is why they lost the game.  I think more coaching.  Dillard seems to lose/or just not show up  that 1 game every year it seems.

    • Nolebull, You are making a good argument for what the rule ought to be or why the rule ought to be changed.   I'm telling you what the rule is.  Interestingly, I witnessed first hand the FHSAA deal with a case that was very similar to the (presumably, hypothetical) one you just described.  A family provided a kid with a bed for the night because that kid had an unfortunate family situation that would have left him homeless for the night had a teammate's family not stepped up and given him a place to stay for the night.  Yep, you got it, impermissible benefit.  Coach and school penalized.  The difficulty is coming up with rules that can't be taken advantage of.  Where do you draw the line?   If paying for an Uber is OK, why can't you just buy the kid a car instead?  More convenient for all parties.  If you can buy a kid a meal, why can't you take his family grocery shopping and let them stock up?  Or, better yet, just give then a gift card and let them spend the money as they please.  What do you do when one school offers up a $1,000 gift card, but another school is willing to give the kid a $2,000 gift card?  Do we really want to turn high school sports into professional sports?
    • Some kids NEED to transfer to get in the best position to change the trajectory of their entire life. Could literally save their life. Difference between going to college and being stuck in your neighborhood getting lost to streets.    And I can only speak for myself, but I’m more interested in a at-risk kid changing his situation for the better in hopes of saving his life than your favorite high school team losing a game because he transferred from your favorite school. 
    • I wouldn’t be so critical of the FHSAA if they didn’t lie and say they give 2 craps about student athletes. I wish people would just be honest. But I guess if they were honest, it would mess up their hustle. 
    • Wait are you saying there is a rule that bars an adult mentor who coaches young men a sport from helping a struggling student athlete and his family with transportation? Whoa that’s next level crazy.    “Hey coach I’m on the side of the road and almost got hit. I’m miles from school and it’s 110 degrees out. Can you get me a ride?” ”Sorry. Some turds 6 hours away in Gainesville said I can’t. Hope you don’t get hit or pass out.” 
    • Say what you want, justify it however you want, wish the rules weren't what they are, but there is no question that a coach or other school representative paying for Uber rides for kids playing sports is a violation of the existing FHSAA rules.  Period.  And Teddy Bridgewater may be or have been an elite athlete, may be or become an excellent high school football coach, and/or may have his heart in the right place, but tweeting out a message to the world that you have done something that undoubtedly constitutes a violation of the rules is just plain stupid.
