    D1 Playoff Bracket (Unofficial)

    I agree entirely. The loss to Wisner was unacceptable. My biggest argument is that it's a shame for that group of seniors because I think they are a legitimately good team and they were so beat up with injuries, which are part of the game.

    D1 Playoff Bracket (Unofficial)

    I get how the tie breakers work but they did just beat the team by 45 that is getting in in front of them. Doesn't exactly make sense to me. Sandy Creek has beat nearly everyone like that, as has Crofton. There's a big gap between the top 4-5 teams and the next group. I think they fit in that...

    D1 Playoff Bracket (Unofficial)

    It's a real shame that Pender won't get in if this is the case. They are absolutely worthy of a spot and I would argue a top 7-8 team when fully healthy. They Pushed Sandy early before they lost starters, competed well with Crofton, and nearly knocked off Stanton.

    If i was the 8-man playoff czar.. Take the power out of the power points

    I think Ponca and Pender are probably both better than Cross County this year. Pender unfortunately dealt with some injuries throughout the season that caused them to drop the Wisner game. Ponca is dealing with injuries now from what I hear, which could impact this week's game. I don't think...

    HS Football Playoff Projections?

    Wouldn't an easy fix just be to limit the number of bonus points that could be awarded? This would allow teams to still play "up" and play more local teams and limit travel. It wouldn't hurt the larger schools at all. But would make it more fair for everyone. You could easily put a cap on it...

    If i was the 8-man playoff czar.. Take the power out of the power points

    I always felt like a more accurate way to do it would be having 10 tiers rather than 4 for points. Sounds complicated, but it's very simple. For a 9 game season: Winning against: 8-1 Team: 50 Points 7-2 Team: 49 Points 6-3 Team: 48 Points 5-4 Team: 47 Points . . . 0-9 Team: 42 Points Losing...

    D1 Top teams

    Just not sure on them. I know how talented they are but they've already shown they're vulnerable. I'd have them at #4 behind JB, Stanton, Ravenna. We'll know more next week, but regardless of that outcome I just don't think they're as consistent on either side of the ball this year and could see...

    D1 Top teams

    It's nice to see the latest coaches poll give Stanton the credit they deserve and move them over Sandy Creek. They have handled multiple very solid teams and I think will continue to roll through the playoffs. It'll be interesting to see how the playoff seedings shake out over the next few...

    Week 1 - Games of the Week Predictions

    Crofton did what I expected them to against a very solid Pender team. I was surprised to see the Sandy Creek score. Didn't expect it to be quite as close as it ended up being, with that lineman from Sutton being out. Anyone have a recap on that one? Didn't expect to see 20 points put up against...

    8 Man Thoughts/Predictions

    I think they're a serious dark horse and could make a deep run in D3! We'll know a lot more about them after Week 3. Both the Carlson and Schindler kids are legit athletes

    8 Man Thoughts/Predictions

    I've been seeing a few preseason polls and other posts regarding 8 man and the upcoming season. I haven't seen anything regarding the future of the D3 game in Kearney. Has anyone heard whether they intend to keep D3 there all the time, or to rotate between the classes? My hope is that they...

    Football Class D3 Football Championship Game will be held in Kearney

    I've heard from a few different 8 man coaches that say they would have preferred for all of the 8 man games to move to Kearney, and had the same idea as JAG164 regarding scheduling. Could still be something the state goes to down the road, especially if they move to grass at Memorial
