CA has beaten the very best from OH. CA has beaten the very best from NJ. CA has beaten the very best from AZ. Hell CA has beaten the very best from OR and elite teams from UT and MD. And all this just in the last few seasons. Pick a different hobby-horse. You're embarrassing yourself and TX by extension. Let’s put this in a better perspective. Gorman is 16-3 vs CA going back to 2004. Gorman is also 9-1 vs the Trinity league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Trinity league is laughable as a big boy league. BG is not top 20 SJB is not top 20 BC NJ is not top 20 National Champ was given before the season started by the idiots who do the bogus national polls. Yes, and all the idiots were going to learn how different TX football was when ET traveled to WA. And all the idiots were going to learn how stupid it was for 5dimes to give BG 20 points over Cedar Hill. Then ET lost in WA. And CH lost by thirty in NV. Maybe the idiot isn't everyone else.

We all know that BG has fielded some of the best high school football teams in the country over the last few seasons. Or are you trying to discount their wins against CA and the Trinity League?

It was know shame for that ET team lose in OT vs that Bellevue team. Jesus, I watched 2 weeks later Desoto hang 40 on them in the first half. These are solid teams but not state championship quality when they played these games - playing probably the best team these schools ever had.

My point was that the "idiots who do the bogus national polls" got it right on both accounts and the outspoken guys from TX who thought that Bellevue was overrated bc they played in WA and that BG wasn't 20 points better than CH got it wrong. And in light of that fact, there's a good chance that the guy from TX who is now railing against the bogus national polls and the idiot pollsters is getting it wrong. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens yes - Still in this situation pollsters should not pretend it did not happen. They don't get another chance to play them this year! You can't automatically say who would win if they played again. For this season the boys from SJB lined up against STA and they got beat and that is all that should matter in the rankings! If it's and buts was candy nuts we all have merry f'ing christmas. The only thing valid in this conversation is that SJB lost the game on the field!!

And in light of that fact, there's a good chance that the guy from TX who is now railing against the bogus national polls and the idiot pollsters is getting it wrong. First off - I have always said from the beginning of my time posting that all national HS polls are Bogus. It is not possible to rank High School football correctly! I have never thought the best team is always from Texas. I believe by land slide the state Texas has by far the most high quality depth. That doesn't mean that other states do not have any team or multiple teams capable of beating our best. Let's take that Bellevue team that beat Trinity in OT - by the way - I am not from Trinity - However, I have old friend who is a Athletic Director at another school who lives just outside of Seattle - So I went to this game. Trinity had legit chance to win that game in regulation they had the ball and driving at midfield with plenty of time to score - They went play action and was going to hit the post - It was wide open - But Myles Jack - Knocked the QB out and forced fumble on the same play - so the game went OT - The back up QB throw Int on the first play of OT - ball game. - Trinity was in the same type game the very next week playing at home vs Tulsa Union who was not nearly ranked as high as Bellevue - I was on the sideline during this game - Trinity won very close lowing scoring game - One of the hardest hitting FB games I have ever witnessed. The next week I am at the Desoto vs Trinity game - Desoto ran through Trinity like they was nothing in the first half of that game scoring every time they had the ball. Texas Big School Champion that year was Allen - They themselves had been beat in OT by Coppell in OT mid season - Trinity got knocked out of the playoffs by SLC in the 3rd round. At the end of the day the State of Texas could have probably sent 15 different teams to play that Bellevue team and either beat them or play good game like Trinity. None of this means Bellevue was not good - They had fine ball team - We just have a lot more of that same level So when I seen a Bellevue team ranked nationally in the top 10 like they was - I have the knowledge and understanding that the state of Texas has 10 teams just as good or who could actually be ranked ahead of them. When I watch MD - I see a good team - However, I see multiple teams in Texas, Florida, and Georgia who I believe would stand good chance of beating them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I've always said that TX has the best HSFB in respect of depth and in other ways too. Check the record. And I agree that most years TX has the greatest number of teams that "would stand a good chance" of beating many of the top-ranked teams from other states. I think that follows as a matter of logic from the claim that TX has greatest depth of all the states. That's why I like Sammy's tier system of ranking teams, even if he botches the execution. It allows us to make course-grained distinctions among teams, which is probably all we can do on the available evidence. I would think that TX would have the greatest number of Tier-2 and Tier-3 teams most years, for example. So maybe we agree on more than we might have thought.

All you have to do is check out my poll over the last few years. What would have been the difference? Historically, Trinity gets better as the season goes. They have never won our state championship with undefeated record. The last year they won our state championship was 2009 - This is the year they beat Utah state champion Bingham 42-21 They got beat the next 2 weeks after the Bingham game by Cedar Hill and Allen. They won some very competitive playoff games that year over - Plano, Arlington Martin, Stony Point, and Westlake in the final. IMO the best team they have ever produced did not win state - It's the team that got beat in the final vs Pearland - That year 2010 Texas was loaded - This Trinity team IMO was just worn down by the time the played Pearland 2nd Round beat Allen 37-35 3rd round beat Martin 42-21 - this game was 14 all at the half 4th round beat Coppell 41-40 They was down 30-21 in this gamer 5th round beat Stony Point 28-24 In this game they was down 17-14 at half Then got beat in the final 28-24 In 2007 - They won state lost the 2nd game of the season 30-3 vs Odessa Permain - Then beat them 38-14 in the playoffs They won 3 more very close games to finish the playoff run that year. 4th round 21-14 over Arlington Bowie 5th round 30-27 over plano Then beat Judson in the final 13-10 Trinity had some damn good teams - but winning our state championship has never been easy for them. Hell, this year they got whipped in Oklahoma by a very good team - They got whipped by 5A team Colleyville Heritage (this team has been whipped by Aledo to start the season) Right now this Trinity team might be the most improved improved team in the state since the beginning of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
