Sammyswordsman Posted September 19, 2019 Report Share Posted September 19, 2019 Going into week 4 it is becoming apparant that there are two football programs that are clearly better than the other contenders. Those two teams are (surprise) Mater Dei and St. John Bosco. Not taking anything away from the Duncanvilles, the IMG's, the STA's or the SJR's, but the comprehensive national beat downs served by Mater Dei and SJB are of a historic nature. In their 4th games, SJB and Mater Dei will compete vs teams on the road separated by 6 time zones and 6000 miles. Six Thousand Miles!! Even if these teams split in their two games (like last year), there can be no question that if MD or SJB win the Calif Open SBG, that that team will should be unanimous MNC. Yes, even with a loss. Were MD or SJB to go undefeated, that squad would rival the 2017 Mater Dei Once in a Generation team, as possibly the greatest High School football team of allllll Time. 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If either MD or SJB win out, they’re unanimous and historical if not, I think the winner of sta - Lakeland has the inside track (I like my MNCs without a loss and didn’t pick DLS in 2015 even when CP did) Duncanville next, maybe Katy (don’t know if they’re in same bracket) then IMG then, you can take either of the Trinity Bots with a loss (unless it’s their last game — then take whoever beats them) 😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The following statement makes zero sense. How can you justify MNC to a team who has lost? Not saying they may not the best team but in a world where a playoff is not viable, if you don't win them all, you don't deserve to be MNC. Why even play it out since you are already convinced? Gotta earn it on the field.

They can beat good teams sometimes because of their talent, even when they really arent that good... And theyll be exposed by someone down the line. I remain skeptical of STA. It should be really tough for anyone to give Lakeland a MNC based on their schedule... Lawd that regular season schedule is brutally bad. If MD/SJB both happen to lose, I personally think Duncanville should get a serious look if they go undefeated. If they lose too... Well lets just not have one this year.

I agree STA would have to do more and if they win the state title and beat a good Lakeland, then I could see them in it. But honestly, I do not see MD losing. I see 2 close battles with SJB and one more in the Open game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this moment, I might put Marietta in the 20-25 range and no one else from GA in the Top 25 YET. The reason for that is I need to see something from those other teams first... Theres so many questions right now. On 8/7/2019 at 8:24 PM, ECHS05 said: Marietta vs. St. Joes Prep PA is looking like a legit Top 25 matchup.
