Kinda appears similar to the competition in Nor Cal ( not that there is anything wrong with that) Can't be right as they lost to Dwyer in 2013... I assume they've won 14 in a row (2014, 2015, 2016). 5 rounds of playoffs, so if they beat Plant it would be 15 in a row. STA's last home playoff loss was 2003 I believe, but they've certainly lost to local teams and in the playoffs on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still true, which makes their accomplishment extraordinary. They finished 10-5. Six wins by a score or less including three in OT and of the three non-OTs, X was behind in the 4th in every one. In only one of the six was X never trailing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. X played SJB tougher than anyone except Mater Dei. Probably hit harder than Mater Dei as well. St. X would be a different animal now, and a game now would be a 7 point affair.

Re-al has found his groove and he would be too much. X would score though with the number of injuries that Bosco has on defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand people and their psyches Your statement was wrong. That simple. Just two big-time recruits. One was out before the season started. The other was injured off and on for much of the season. Multiple other injuries (including their #2 o-lineman, who was also out for the season). The rest of the team has a handful of offers from small schools. One Navy offer, a couple of MACs. That's it. The only "psyche" involved is your obvious need to pump up the win over X.

You are off the reservation. So now you change the topic. i havent brought up Roswell in this thread. I said You used CP to back up your info. for example when I said GA 7A and 6A where stronger than FL 7A and 6A you immediately went to CP and when I said Region 1-6A didnt suck. you immediately went to CP. Its almost like you cant form your own opinion without having Confirmation from someone elses opinion. And a Computers Opinion at that. CP is nothing but Neds Opinion on the rankings. But his Opinion is yours too I guess. And I guess it must be correct because Apparently everything you say is fact and its never incorrect.

Coletrain06 Posted December 3, 2016 Report Share Posted December 3, 2016 The biggest factor to X doing so well to end the year was Sean Clifford and little else. During this unbelievable playoff run, generally X had looked like X of the regular season, except for their QB play. Sean Clifford was wearing a boot the day before the SJB game and was barely mobile when he played for most of the regular season. He wasn't fully healthy until the 2nd week of the playoffs. He took over games making plays with his legs and practically single handedly won 3 of X's playoff games. Alot of people doubted this X team, because apart from injuries, I don't think anyone expected Clifford to be so damn good....Clifford has been their QB the previous 2 years and he was very underwhelming. He was very inaccurate and didn't do much at all. His accuracy is a little better this year, but it's the way he's been making plays with his legs and just making very smart decisions that really took X to a higher level Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your statement was so stupid you might as well have said that Georgia 1A was better or that GISA was better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clifford was far from 100% vs. SJB and was in fact out the next two games. He completely missed three more later in the season and had to spelled in several others (including SJB).

See thats your problem. yea I forgot 5A and I aint lying I said what I said and I take responsibility for it. But I havent lied about anything. and besides I dont need a Computer to tell me that GA 5A,6A AND 7A are stronger than Floridas. you're the one who needs a reassurance I stand by my statement with Pride. FL 5A rides on AHP thats it 7A is clearly all on STA. And 6A is all Carol City. FL has watered down classes. if you took away 8A and 7A you'd be good. but nah. the FHSAA is money hungry. dont worry the GHSA is too we dobt even need a 7A.

Here's a lesson for you. I didn't make a declarative statement. You did. I merely showed you that your claim was unsupportable by anything other than extreme homerism and opinion. I did not use calpreps as a 'fact' like you said in any way, shape or form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
