Who will be Maryville's trap game?

The only way Maryville loses is if they beat themselves! They have depth and their defense should be very strong, maybe better then last years defense! Of course they have the coaching! Great coachable players who work hard and are very disciplined! I pick them to win it all!

"For this study, I defined a “trap game†as a game between a team that finished the season above .500 against a team that finished the season below .500 that occurred one game before the above .500 team played another team that finished the season above .500."

I believe Governors91 might be on to something.  In the history of the Maryville vs WB series, every time that Maryville has beaten the Governors by more than 50 points,  the Governors have bounced back to win the game the following year.

Gov-Man...... '91 iz a glass haif full man fer shore.... :thumb:

I know you are being sarcastic but I never said WB will win that game. I said I think WB will give them a better game this year. It seems like every couple of years WB will give them a good game and after the way last year went I would think the Govs will have that game circled on their calendar.

    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen. 
    • I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
