Notre Dame-28 Montini-7, FINAL
- Thread starter ESCC fan
- Start date
JCA has pretty much kicked ND’s *** since they joined the ESCC in 1982? Because of my advanced calculus classes at ND I’m able to count on one hand the amount of times we’ve won the matchup. So don’t worry about the 5 vs 8 thing. If the series goes forward for years I’m sure Montini will win plenty against the big bad 8A Dons. But tonight we shall revel in our moment in the sun.

Also I think the Naz fans told me the ESCC teams got rid of those jerseys where the jersey and numbers are the same color, no?
Why would all the ESCC teams buy these jerseys in the first place?

All ESCC teams did not have that type of jersey. Off hand I can only think of Marist and ND. I’ve seen many teams from a number of other conferences have the same eye straining combo.
It is an NFHS rule in the coming years that the number must contrast the primary jersey color. That usually takes a few yrs to go into effect so the schools who just bought them aren’t buying new uni’s.

What 8A teams have they played with a winning record? Let’s see how they can compete with 8A teams in the playoffs. It’s okay to be excited but I will hold my enthusiasm until I see them beat a proven program in 8A.
Beating Montini and Providence by 21 points is more impressive than beating ~95% of 8A teams.
They also beat a great team in MI Grand Rapids Central Catholic on the road who was ranked #16 in MI.
Last week they were ranked #18 overall in MI.

Sayles reminds me of LWE QB Tom Fuessel from 2012 the way he can elude a pass rush behind the line of scrimmage having the ability of running from the east side to the west side and back to the east side of the field behind the line of scrimmage eluding tackles and never getting touched.
These are the only 2 HS QB's I've seen that can do that.
Does anyone else think the 2 QB's games resemble one another??

Same Providence that beat 8A playoff team Brother Rice by double digits? Same Montini team that lost by just one score to arguably the top 8A team?
Listen, I'm not saying ND is gonna march through 8A or something. That's nonsense. But I also think it is silly to say they haven't proven themselves yet because they havent played any "8A powers" when, in reality, they've had a pretty tough schedule.
*edit--did not realize Mount Carmel is 7A....with the way MC63 talks, can ya blame me?
Same Rice that beat Hillcrest by 6?
I'm not saying ND won't make noise, I'm just saying that comment was silly. Matter of fact I've been saying that they'd be competitive if they stopped being the 5-4 team when ramblinman was saying they should be 6A.
Never in my wildest dreams did I think that the Dons would appear on Bones radar. The whiff of some modicum of success is sweet!!
I've paid attn to ND since I saw them a while back at the preseason prep bowl.
Which comment was silly? That beating PC/Montini by 3 touchdowns is more impressive than beating ~95% of 8A teams? I don't think it is that silly of a comment. And going through the list of 8A teams, I think it is true. And I was just responding to the comment that ND hasn't proven themselves because they never beaten 8A teams yet.
But this is pointless. With only lowly non-8A teams like Nazareth and St. Rita left on the schedule, ND will have no opportunity to prove itself until the playoffs.
Let's
Here are LWE Tommy Fuessel highlights if you never saw him play. I think Sayles is similar to him...
Of course not as explosive as.Fuessel but similar game.

Come on guys. I said ND can do damage. I pray to see the day they're downstate. Realistically 2 or 3 playoff wins would be great for this program. I might need to buy NFHS network for the playoffs.

Thanks for the invitation, but I'm not available on the evening you are arranging pregame revelry.

I can only imagine what you distill in your basement.
As for the game Friday evening, I was among the spectators in Niles and was very impressed with what NND fielded, particularly on defense. Over the past two decades I have rarely missed at least one NND home game a year and this was the best group of defenders the I have seen in a Don team.
In the past, NND has produced some fairly good offenses, but has struggled to compliment its offense with a solid defense. Not this year.
Now learned men who use the pen
Have sung the praises high
Of the rare poitin' from Ireland green
Distilled from wheat and rye
Put away with your pills, it'll cure all ills
Be ye Pagan, Christian or Jew
So take off your coat and grease your throat
With the dear old Mountain Dew
No, his mind is not for rent
To any god or government
Always hopeful, yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is
Uniform deal is an NHSF rule I believe they are banned starting in 2020
