Ohio State is who they are and what they are is basically identical to Oklahoma.

Except Oklahoma is ranked several spots ahead of Ohio State. Ohio State's (potential) wins over Michigan and Northwestern should not be enough to vault them over Oklahoma and their (potential) wins over WVU and Texas. The Michigan win is better than the West Virginia win but the Texas win would be better than the Northwestern win. There's not enough difference in the wins to jump that many spots.

And your telling me that #10 OSU deserves to jump #7 LSU. WHY?

 

They're beating A&M now. A&M is a ranked team.

If you want to make that argument when the teams have the same number of losses, fine. To make it when LSU has 2 losses to OSU's one you've got no argument. LSU has 2 losses. They didn't win their division and won't play in their conference championship game. Not getting to the conference championship might be okay if they had one loss like Bama last season. But they've got 2. They don't belong ahead of ANY power 5 school with zero or one loss. The regular season should mean something.

With the current system in place it should be Oklahoma without question.

Taylor County got on the field with under a minute left in the three minute warm up period. I believe their locker room was closer.

So it was an exaggeration to say it was a 10 minute walk then. It was just further than you were happy with.

Raceland has 61 wins, 4 Region titles and 1 State Finals appearance in the past 6 years.

But I think OR said the seniors finished with 60 wins.

Halftime is 15:00 minutes. If the “locker room” is a ten minute walk then it is not adequate. If rest room facilities are not provided that is not adequate. If the visiting team has to take halftime in the middle of the field that is not adequate.

A 10 minute walk? So the locker rooms are a half mile from the field? I don't remember them being that far from the field at Taylor County.

Glad Washington got the win.

It still won't get UCF into the playoff.

Good luck!! Including today, 4 TD vs starting 11 on D. And today’s was without NG. Hmmm...

Have they played an offense like Mayfield?

Does that conference have a title game?

Yes. UCF will get a rematch with Memphis.

Apparently the Cubs are one of the suitors to land Noah Syndergaard.

Along with the other 28 teams. I'd say everyone has called the Mets about Thor. I don't think the Cubs have the prospects remaining to pull off that trade.

I'm taking Mayfield. CAL has a great team but Somerset found a way to move the ball on them effectively tonight. If not for a penalty on the Centurion's 5 yard line the Jumpers would have scored 4 times. I think Mayfield's staff, coupled with a better offense than Somerset, will take the Jumpers blueprint and find a way to put up some points. I'll take the Cardinals 31-21 in a good one.

Boyle scored a TD but it was ruled out of bounds on the field. That would have made it 14-7. The next play was a turnover. I would’ve like to see what happened after that.

 

Congrats to Corbin. They controlled the line of scrimmage and Boyle couldn’t counter their defense. Good luck next week!

So it was a missed call?

Worst thing that could have possibly happened. Somerset was playing with no fear and was outplaying CAL up to that point. Totally unforced turnover. Have to suck it up and play on.

Somerset forces a CAL punt. Briar Jumper ball iiib the Centurion's 41 yard line to start the drive.

Somerset's offensive line is doing a nice job and their coaching staff has a good game plan on offense.

Somerset kicks a 29 yard field goal. 7-3 CAL 5:24 1st quarter.

CAL

5-11. 220

6-4. 260

6-8. 280

6-6. 295

6-2. 270

Unless they left him in Louisville there's no one on the Centurion's offensive line that is 6'8". Great looking athletes but there's no one over 6'5".

Close enough that it is just personal preference.

 

Hard to believe stat - Beltre was only an all star 4 times.

It was hard for me to believe that Brett only won a single Gold Glove as well.

7-CAL

5-Boyle County

3-Franklin Simpson

2-Pikeville

1-Trinity

Tiebreaker-Boyle County

Idk what type of offense PC runs but assuming they’re like most mountain teams, they’ll grind it out on the ground which would play into their strength. I could be wrong. it would virtually make CovCath one dimensional if it’s that bad. It’s also in the players heads too.

You know what they say making assumptions makes you, right? Pulaski's quarterback has over 300 passes COMPLETED this season. They throw it all over the field.

Reds keep Raisel Iglesias with a 3 yr, $24m contract.

 

Reds, closer Raisel Iglesias agree to 3-year deal

I'd trade him for sure now. He'd have a ton of value with that contract.

Scooter Gennett has been removed from the list for Redsfest... Headed to the Yankees for Sonny Gray?

Who cares about field conditions. Adapt and play football. Everyone acts like conditions of fields is something new. As soon as schools get turf they think they should always play on turf. Is everyone new to playing in the playoffs in November?

Exactly. Several Southwestern fans were talking about how bad the field conditions were going to be at Pulaski well in advance of the game last night. I can't help but wonder if that didn't get in the player's heads a little bit and contributed to the Warriors slow start. Just lace 'em up and play. Covington Catholic is the better team by far. It wouldn't matter where they play.

Is there a turf field near Pulaski?

The closest one is at Lindsey Wilson about 40 minutes away. Somerset High School is getting turf next season. Even if they had it this season and weren't playing at home on Friday good luck getting Pulaski to give up their home field advantage.
