I am 100% sure that they open week 0 with Hillsboro at Hillsboro.

No offense, but one 5-5 season does not exactly single a change in the right direction. If Ryan couldn't beat MBA last year, they likely won't any time soon. I don't really know if Ryan can count any DII game as a sure win. But that second schedule is a lot softer and looks more favorable to Ryan. With that schedule they might be able to hit 6 wins.

 

You said last year that we wouldnt even win 3-4 games? Proved you wrong, eh? And MBA will be beatable without Rutledge now (rather easily if their head coach is from FRA). Yea, FR is in excellent shape this year. You're forgetting that we have one of the best coaches in the state making QUICK results.

 

Ok we might have lost to MBA but answer this riddle.

 

Who made playoffs?

 

kkthx

 

And I thought we opened with Overton, not the 'Boro.

You are 100% wrong. Hillsboro plays Franklin @ Hillsboro week 0. Ryan did not want to play Hillsboro as Hillsboro tried to get the game scheduled for 07.

I stand corrected, winning 5 games is significantly better than winning 3 or 4 and definitely something to brag about. After all of the injuries and whatnot, the 2006 MBA team ended up one of the worst MBA teams in the past 20 years, as opposed to a 5-5 Ryan team that was one of the best teams they've had this decade.

 

While Dan McGugin has not been named the new head coach, his coaching ability is excellent. Where you aware that before he was the head coach at FRA he was on the staff at Miami? Probably not. Also, do you remember all of the yardage MBA racked up on the ground last fall? Well, Dan was coaching the running backs and got plenty of production out them so I think we're in great shape. And then again, they could bring in a coach from California for all we know.

It is true that they would not play Hillsboro for whatever reason and Franklin stepped up to the plate.

Well that schedule is significantly weaker than the previous one. I bet FR can easily win 3 out of the first 4, but winning 2 out of the next 6 will be a significant challenge. I'd say 6-5 sounds about right, with a 1st round playoff dismissal.
