I say just play where you grew up playing, if they suck then be part of the reason they turn it around, I know that is a foreign mindset for most people these days, I had the opportunity to play for a private school and wanted no part of it, I actually had pride in where I was, just saying...

well something they are NOT doing right is winning a championship with 1st a goal from the 3 and a minute to go. 

I never said they won, but they didnt get exposed either, already addressed the poor time management in the game thread, so outside of that I just do not see the point of your response...

This was a very good good evenly matched game, ER did more than just Groves, left, right, and up the middle, AND that is why they were able to move the ball fairly effectively. I thought it was wise to mix in the pass more against a solid defense, but they returned to form killing some drives with stupid penalties and still had a shot to win it at the end...

Riverside made the plays when they needed to and stayed diciplined for the most part, #25 is a beast carrying the ball, all in all, a fun game to watch. Congrats to Riverside on their 1st gold ball!

This is the best slate of title games I have seen in a while as far as being competitive!

I really enjoyed most all of these games from Thursday through tonight, I wish they were like this every year!

Very entertaining game to watch, Congrats to Houston on their 1st gold ball!

After 3 straight trips to the state championship all to choke it up with terrible play calling and clock management! After playing a terrible western bracket yet again they get exposed in the big dance.  

Nobody got exposed, they barely lost a game, but hey even as runner ups, they still have a hater, must be doing something right!

This was Page's game to win, their late game time management costs them the game and it was all on the coaches. Had they used all 4 downs and failed, I would be disappointed but I could live with that if I were them, but to run out of time with more downs available, nah...

Interesting take. You think people are talking trash because they are picking who they think will win? I think the 3rd time is the charm for Page. No disrespect to West and definitely not talking trash. I think both teams have done what each needed to do to put themselves in this position. I think this will be the best game of the weekend.

I don't recall saying anyone was talking trash, just that they were dismissing any chance for Page to win and stating it as fact, and for that reason, I said trash talk away...

Not to trash talk (that should be reserved for those little 1A and 2 A threads) but, we have taken care of business this year, including both the regular season and playoffs. We are in the championship for a reason and that reason is not because we are nor have been a bad team any this year.

 

Pulling for the patriots!

I say talk trash, there are posters on here saying Page is going to lose as if it is fact or a fore gone conclusion, I actually believe you guys have a good chance to win the game, let everybody know...lol

Honestly Upperman responds very good to being the underdog. They have speed they have a very strong running game they can pass the ball short and long. Most of all there defense at all levels are strong and there defense of line will force a QB to make mistakes. I have watched most of PC season this year and I really feel Greenville was a better team than PC.  They are fast and have a power back and a QB that can sling the ball. It’s gonna be a good game to watch I can’t wait to see it. 

I am guessing you meant defensive line...lol

I’ll agree that winnin at Kentucky is hard to do and he has done a good job there BUT 

If you consistently win 7-9 games a year at Kentucky they will build a statue of you in front of the stadium once you retire. If you win 7-9 games a year at A&M you are gonna get fired and be lookin for a new job. The expectations at the 2 schools are drastically different. 

I believe the thinking is, if you win 7-9 games a year at KY with the resources/athletes you generally get at that school when it comes to football, then you should be able to compete for champinships at A&M with the unlimited resources they have for football, which is a fair assumption...

Greenville said the same this past week and Upperman dominated the line of scrimmage all night with them so you may wanna watch some film before you count Upperman out 

I have watched some film, and I do not believe they can beat PC, I get if you are a fan or just like them but not everyone is going to agree with you, there will be more people who pick PC to win...lol

Got to put pressure on there on the last play.  Ignorant to just rush three and make those dbs cover for 10 seconds .

Right!; Milroe had time to make a sandwich back in the pocket!

I believe PC will finally win one after missing on the last few tries, not sure of how competitive it will be because I do not know much about Upperman...

Don't think this game will be as close as some are thinking. You guys have really improved and have a really good team, Riverside is a MONSTER. I'll be right back here t eat my Crow if I'm wrong, I just don't see it. I will be pulling for you guys for what its worth.

From what I have gathered seems like most outside of the ER faithful, believe RS will win easily, I personally believe it will be a good game reguardless who wins...

I agree with this statement. I saw last night that #1 is East Robertson that’s no disrespect to the other 10 kids on offense but without him I’m not sure they are where they are. 

Because of how they call their offense I have to agree with you, BUT, if they would actually use some of the other 10 guys on the field I believe their offense would be much better, they have more weapons but rarely deviate from Groves, right, left, and up the middle, and wash, rinse, and reapeat. Having said that, they have had success with that scheme. I can see it catching up with them against the right team though...

In talking with a friend on the West staff this morning, he tells me that Page has a tremendous defense, only lost a couple of starters from last year. 

The West offense is really clicking right now. ,

I anticipate a very competitive 5A championship game. 

Without a dog in the fight, that is all I really ask for...

East Robertson was the worst sports I've ever seen in all the DECADES I've watch. A East Robertson coach PUNCHED a York player. He is being charged with assault. They started 2 fights, kicked York players who were on the ground, and all night long they shoved York players after the play ended. York cost themselves the game by going for it on 4th down twice costing 2 touchdowns. But they came back from 35-7 to 35-31 and if they got the last on side kick, they would have won. Their coach encouraged his team to act like horrible. I would be ashamed if I was from ER. I hope the ER assistant coach goes to jail.

York started it dude, by intentionally trying to injure players, it was literally caught on camera, I seen it with my own eyes, that is a fact, having said that, if an ER coach did hit a York player, then yeah he should be held responsible, I cant comment on that because I did not see it and do not know the circumstances and/or details, but if he is in the wrong then he probably will not coach again...

No Groves were ejected. Not going to announce the player who was ejected, but it wasn’t a Groves.

Yeah, I didnt think so, I saw the play and the player I thought it would be until they started talking about a Groves, not gonna mention a number but yeah...

I believe it is a good 2A title game, look forward to seeing it...

I said York was trying to injure Groves in the 1st Q. 

Yeah, it was clear on video before the brawl, the guy literally had his ankle in his arms torking on it, ridiculous...lol

I mean great effort by York on the comeback, but trying to twist a mans ankle when he is down, come on...lol
