Miami Central @ Daytona Mainland

The Mainland schedule (due to a pretty weak District) was not that of Miami Central but it was decent.   They at least make an effort to play very good teams outside of District play.   Handled Bartram Trail with a 56-24 win.  Won at Dr. Phillips 28-7.  Lost @ St. Edward , OH  (arguably the best team in OH)  47-28, and just beat Heritage Palm Bay 21-14.

MC been a pain in Mainland butts the past few years... What you guys think and how good Mainland schedule was this year?

 

Mainland has a chance if the following happens: 1. Their quarterback, who is a very special athlete, gets enough time to make plays with both his arms and legs. 2. They can eliminate the unnecessary penalties (they average over a 100 yards per game). Unless Central's win against Carol City last week was a fluke (not the win, but the margin), I have to go with Central here (sorry Dan). But I expect it to be a good game, regardless. Moreso than any other Central Florida team, Mainland has a bit of that, "South Florida swagger." So I can say for sure that they will not be intimidated. Central by 7.

I think the difference in this game will be the Central Defense.  Defensively speaking, I don't think the Central win vs. Carol City was a fluke (they lost to Carol City on 10/3/2105 Final =7-8. )  Also recently, Boyd Anderson and Jackson actually had a pretty solid Offenses but could not get anything going on Central.  Both were shut down.

Only two teams have had Offensive success on Central. Dematha back in August put up balanced 264 total yards on Central and Booker T. Washington (in September)  put up 344 Total yards on them with 263 through the air.  

Mainland should hold their own Defensively as well.  First team to 24 might win this one.

That's the thing I don't see Mainland qb or offense can put up that against MC defense but it's a home game ... I got MC in a very close game... Can come down to a field goal

    • Agree with what you think mostly, except I'd use a 4 year average and only move the top team in each region up and bottom team in each region down based on that average. I think 4 years gives a better overall picture of a program.
    • What this means is we will soon see one of two scenarios play out in the coming years: 1) A subset of students will eventually not be able to attend a "good" school because there is simply no space for them due to there being a scarcity of "good" schools 2) Assuming compulsory attendance remains a thing, we will see longtime elite private high schools nosedive in performance. The schools can not perform magic: unmotivated, unprepared often defiant students will NOT be good students no matter what the school does/doesn't do. And oftentimes these sorts of students do have parents who will do the absolute bare minimum needed to get the kid into a private school through the new rules. Anyone who genuinely believes that the schools with higher test scores automatically do a better job of teaching the kids than schools with lower scores is an imbecile. 
    • Here’s a scenario that will cook your noodle. There’s an 11th grader at a D rated public school. Lives in a bad neighborhood with a single mom and a bunch of siblings. Dirt poor, and struggle just to eat and keep the lights on. He can’t get a part time job to help out because he has to watch his little siblings while his mom works.    The school he plays for has poor attendance at the football games, and is always bad. He is a super star for them and tons of new bandwagon fans start to attend the games because they are good and he is the reason. School is making tons of new money.    Season is over. Back to reality for him. School year is over. Summer hits. Some “runner” on behalf of the rich local private school “offers” his mom, him, and all his siblings a way out of poverty. New place to live, food on the table, and an opportunity to get a quality education and maximize exposure for all the top colleges to see. A once in a lifetime opportunity to get his family out of poverty. What say you? Does he say no and continue to barely survive, or does he take the deal? 
    • To make it short and sweet. I am against breaking the rules. If there is a rule that seems outdated or unfair then it should be amended/changed/repealed with majority rule 
    • I am a huge proponent of innocent until proven guilty, and due process with credible evidence. I support a credible investigation, and not some witch hunt by disgruntled folks both near and far from the program. Let’s hope they can get to the bottom of this quickly
