Ravenwood vs. Brentwood Academy

[cpk20]

I talked with a BA players dad and he said that BA has yet to play a good team in their scrimmages and one game. He said that their first real test might be Baylor, since they have a new coach, if not them then the team from Mississippi.

 

I'm not sure that BA will be tested all year. I would hope that they don't look past any team they play this year. BA has loads of talent but they also have a loaded schedule!

I heard that Father Ryan managed to beat Ravenwood in a scrimmage on Friday. This one could get ugly for Ravenwood?

 

 

And what do you think Fr. Ryan is ....chopped liver?

They'll be tested with that loaded schedule. That "4M" stretch of games - Meridian/McCallie/MUS/MBA - will all be tests, albeit to varying degrees.

 

DII-AAA is flat out balanced from top to bottom this year, perhaps with one or maybe two exceptions.

BA will get all the testing they can handle. It would not be the first time that MUS and MBA found a way to deal with talent. Having a lot of talent just improves your chances in DII.

I certainly wouldn't ignore Ravenwood and Baylor as tests either. They are the defending 5A Champions, currently ranked (AP) #3 5A team, and certainly have this game circled on their schedule. Baylor still has one of the best power running backs in the state, as our friends from MBA can attest to.

BA has Tyree Ford(runs a 10.2 100 yd) and Ryan White(who had 865 yds last year). Also they got Trent Caffee from Texas at QB. While Ravenwood really only has Becker, and he isn't a proven QB yet. And this being Flatt's last year, they might have got a few other players in since last year.

Has Flatt announced his retirement yet? How do you know he is leaving....?

BA-66

 

RHS-6

 

I expect to see Ba run over Ravenwood with no mercy. I am Expecting to see cleckner and laidlaw out with huge season ending injuries and ravenwoods season down the tube. sorry raptor fans but even though this isnt a district game after week 1 your season is all ready over.

 

Your right Laidlaw and Cleckner are out for the BA game (and maybe more games) so the "spread" should be in BA's favor, but by 60???? I'd take Ravenwood and 60 (or anyone else in the state) anytime.

 

I would guess that you predicted Ravenwood's demise last year when they lost their all-state middle LB, Daniel Becker. We know how that story played out.

BA takes this one easily.

And what do you think Fr. Ryan is ....chopped liver?

 

Never said FR was "chopped liver," but I wouldn't expect a team that has continually finished at the bottom of DivIIAAA to beat the defending 5A champ. It's a moot point now. Good luck to FR, BA, and Ravenwood this year!

BA & Flatt will score as often as possible. Don't forget that some of the Ravenwood players attended BA when they were younger and IMO Flatt will try to show them that they were wrong for leaving BA. Flatt also wants to make sure to win big so that the best Williamson County talent will continue to look at BA.

Wow, some of those theories are out there.

 

I feel certain that Coach Flatt will not try to run up the score on Ravenwood. He has a great relationship with the Ravenwood coach. Speaking of which, I think the Raptors are being sold short. They are well coached and should put up a formidable fight. I actually think that the "run up the score" issue will prove to be immaterial.

Which Ravenwood players went to BA?
