Yes. He doesn't buy their ratings system. How does that have to anything with understanding math?

Playing the disrespect card against a machine is not buying their ratings. It's illogical. He stated that they don't know how much these boys have grown or whatever. I pointed out that they do. I am also pointing out that emotion doesn't trump math/ a machine. If he actually disagreed with the ratings that would be one thing. Proposing that the machine doesn't respect them is another.

Seems to be an odd reaction on your part. He thinks CCH is better than MaxPreps does (who has never watched CCH or...or....). Maybe he'll turn out to be wrong. Might be right. Has nothing to do with understanding "math."

 

If I say Team #123 is better than Team #223 that's not me failing to comprehend math. That's my saying someone's eval is wrong IN MY OPINION.

 

That's what he's saying. But, hey, keep hacking at that math angle.

I think Lancaster and Hartley both would beat Cov Cath.

 

Noted.

I was just going with the teams that De Sales have already played.

 

It was posted earlier in the thread about the De Sales schedule not being all of that.

Go watch Sycamore and tell me u think that team isn't very good. They have college athletes all over the field. That being said, covcath is banged up right now so I will concede your point. Desales is at home and should be the favorite

I'd like to see the Colonels go to Columbus and win. They need to be prepared however. I remember when Highlands played up there years ago, Desales got some good old fashioned home cooking from the officiating crew late in the game.

Who's banged up?

Ziggy was hurt. Not sure if he still is.

Oh ok. I thought there was more than 1 hurt.

Could be.

I've witnessed the "home-cooking" comment. Helpful hint also: buy concession on the home side, it might be a little cheaper there :popcorn:

 

For those that have not been, the stadium is awesome, love the entry and the impressive manner that they have captured their history, worth seeing.

 

To the game: I believe this DeSales team will be hard hitting, strong backs and very disciplined as always. I agree that they will likely pound and grind and challenge CovCath in trenches and test their endurance and will.

This game is intriguing because it will be a real test for CovCath and will provide a gage for how far they have really come. If they can hang with team, on the road, I believe they will have earned some respect.

Hoping it's close but think CDS will open margin a little late in game.
