I did. And I’m not “impressed” im sorryDid you listen to the game? Watch the game? I did and Newton played a good defensive game... JC shot themselves a few times... Gotta get it out of your heads that a team needs to score 50 points to win a football game!
I bitched to NFHS about the quality and got zero solution aside from they would contact the school....Tri-Valley NFHS stream is complete trash. Focused only on the student fans in the opposite end zone.
You ain't kidding... Unity is absolutely SJO's kryptonite in 2nd season football.
Not surprised by this result, especially if MF's QB1 was out. AC is usually a pretty decent program and no idea what they have but I would guess they will be by far the best team EPG has seen this season.Aurora Christian 28
Maroa 7
Final
AC has a small team, but they are FAST!
Don't make me go pull the stats for semi final appearances by Tolono after beating SJO... over/under without knowing has to be set at 6 times.

Unless MF has two lefty's the starter was in today!~mf qb1 in
Another ringing endorsement to just seed this 1-48. Would be interested to see how many legendary programs from the south don’t make it past the 2nd round.Welcome to the North Maroa. The road is a little tougher I see…
MF’s QB1 played the entire game, but not well. Had maybe 3 INT’s.Not surprised by this result, especially if MF's QB1 was out. AC is usually a pretty decent program and no idea what they have but I would guess they will be by far the best team EPG has seen this season.

Who are you talking to? There's literally no one from Maroa on this site. lolWelcome to the North Maroa. The road is a little tougher I see…
Says the Calhoun guy...#TheSouthFallsAgain
It is a fact lolSays the Calhoun guy...
Said in jest... don't go wadding up those under garments on me now son...
Oh I know it... as a QND/CS8 fan I spend my time hating/loving Rochester for being one of the few down here who even gets to play northern teams... ever... at least consistently in the playoffs that is. So too does Maroa... but they never beat 'em...It is a fact lol
It is just different up there and I respect it lolOh I know it... as a QND/CS8 fan I spend my time hating/loving Rochester for being one of the few down here who even gets to play northern teams... ever... at least consistently in the playoffs that is.

I'm sorry, I don't have a roster of everybody's names and where they are from. Where did you get yours? Better yet i will email you my next post to see if it is good enough for the free High School Football board. LOLWho are you talking to? There's literally no one from Maroa on this site. lol
You honestly just have to. To be fair, it likely stems from part envy, part shame, part just being a damn football fan. lolIt is just different up there and I respect it lol
I'd hate to clog up your inbox when you're clearly working overtime here, chief... Maybe stick to the JV topics if you need a cheat sheet for basic conversation.I'm sorry, I don't have a roster of everybody's names and where they are from. Where did you get yours? Better yet i will email you my next post to see if it is good enough for the free High School Football board. LOL
It’s not even shame it’s just being able to admit that it’s different up there and it happens man.You honestly just have to. To be fair, it likely stems from part envy, part shame, part just being a damn football fan. lol
Fair play... The shame is likely us exclusively... the downtrodden downstate private that can't win at football... The lord giveth, and the Lord shunneth us from football titles! ...or even the chance to play for one...It’s not even shame it’s just being able to admit that it’s different up there and it happens man.

Hard to pick just one game but from my perspective in the 217, I'm keeping an eye on the following games:What games is everyone excited for this weekend?
1AWhat games is everyone excited for this weekend?
Big hype in the area for an 8-man game. Meridian's got some dudes!Bonus game in 8 man - South Beloit @ Meridian
Even as a former A&M Raider, I'm happy for them. They were always a good basketball school back in the day but never had a solid football program when I played.Big hype in the area for an 8-man game. Meridian's got some dudes!
What makes Calhoun ALAH so intriguing1A
I'm not sure what's left to say about the 2 matchups in the 1A south bracket. Absolute dog fights. Stockton/Fulton is likely the peoples choice for the headliner on the ticket this weekend, with CPC/BC right behind. But Calhoun/ALAH intrigues me the most.
2A
El-Paso-Gridley is impressive. Is a date with Wilmo imminent? I'll say no more than that.
3A
I plan to be at SJO/Mt. Carmel on Saturday. Ultimately 3A seems decided already. Kind of ruins the rest the bracket but some fun games regardless. Monti/Billtown should be a fun fight. RB/Hope should also be good, imo. Pulling for our friends up in Richmond. Always a classy program from our (QND) experience. Oh... Byron/IC... yikes. Pray for an "upset" together, shall we?You can't call it if you don't call it... I've got my crow from the freezer thawing. "Down goes Frazier! Down goes Frazier!"
4A
North - Morris, Morris, it's gonna be Morris.
South - Hit snooze til next week.
