Honestly it seems like the Big 3 this year are all defense with only a little offense. Kind of old fashioned really.

This honestly may play a bigger factor than people think too.

Crikey that means my membership is old enough to start driving.

By that same token, as I know it has been mentioned before, how the heck did Rondale not win Mr. Football?

Okay so it's not just me noticing it then.

Do there seem to be more injuries this year than usual? It is entirely possible that I am more aware of it this year due to the sheer number of injuries T has sustained, but I seem to recall seeing a number of teams struggling with injuries more than usual this season. I know X has had their fair share and I seem to recall seeing something about a few for Male too. If that is indeed the case, what's going on? Is it bad luck, something else, or am I just more hyper aware due to the volume of injuries the teams I follow most closely have sustained?

Good lord not again.

09/30/02 for me you young'uns.

Leaving Rockmom & I out of the class of '02 is hurtful bruh.

That's who I was thinking of, brain fart.

I didn't think Palumbino would be able to return this season.

Bad comparison, CAL has actually won something before.

This may well be the first time that it hasn't With such a young squad this may have been a bit much for their psyche.

Good job X, looks like we have work to do.

Exactly. New coach and injuries for X and a bunch of injuries for T. Honestly I just hope that neither team has anyone added to the injury list after this game.

Bruh, BYE is BAE! :ylsuper:

Not to be difficult but you do know that one of our losses was to Male, right?

At this point I just want them to get healthy. If they get healthy they will show their mettle, at this point though I have no issue with dropping the Rocks dramatically in the rankings. We can be the underdogs in every game the rest of the season, that's fine by me. As long as they find themselves, get healthy, and show what they're made of by season's end, I will be happy with them.

Had another injury. Good lord how many is that for the season?

We have lost 4 in a row, we were in a position to win 3 of them. Is that an excuse? No we still lost, were we competitive enough against tough competition to indicate that we should be fine against 99% of KY teams? Yes. Male and Scott County are the only two teams that legitimately can claim to be better than T right now. Both have signature wins, with Scott County's arguably being more impressive. We are young. We are injured. Not an excuse. It is just something we are lamenting as we see things that likely wouldn't happen were the senior leaders not out. In the end these rankings don't determine anything except for those who want to boost themselves out of insignificance by claiming records are the most important thing. Trinity will take a top ten ranking or a bottom 10 ranking at this point, because it doesn't matter yet. It matters in the playoffs. That's when put up or shut up comes into play, and given our history and our coaching staff's history I feel just fine about where we will end up. Does your schools' staff, history, and experience instill the same confidence? If so then the playoffs will be more fun. I'd hate to see lopsided games against nobodies especially in a title game. Not much more embarrassing than crowing and getting shut out 48-0. So rank us where you will, our performance will speak for itself by playoffs end.

Exactly, had I not seen something nearly identical to this in the past I would be more concerned.

Honestly I can't find fault with that thought.

You may want to put on a heart monitor, I am worried that the excitement may do you in. :sorry:

In which case I suppose the Rocks should follow the NKY 6A method and schedule the school for the blind and a bunch of middle schools. Oh well. I suppose we should write off this season, since clearly T has never come back from anything like this ever before to convincingly win a state title. :idunno:
