Total state population is not the factor. It’s the population of high school football players per state that is the factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a couple years old but still fairly accurate. State football participation numbers are on page 8. CA participation numbers have continued to decline below the 91k listed in the survey. FL is over 40K. TX has double the football participation rates of CA, and over four times that of FL. https://www.nfhs.org/media/1020412/2018-19_participation_survey.pdf 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atticus Finch Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 The best team in a state losing 55-0, or a big school state semifinalist losing 53-0, is indeed a humiliation. The best team in a state losing by 6 to a top 150ish team in the country is not a humiliation. Pretty simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's simple is you want a cookie for nothing.......and will continue wanting a cookie for nothing for years, looks like. Georgia does NOT have split classes in the playoffs.....Louisiana does. Some years the Louisiana 5A semifinalist is just not that good even the 5A public champion is not that great some years. The playoffs ain't what they used to be here. Keep wanting a cookie though, it's amusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolebull813 Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 There is no way to justify a top 10 Louisiana team losing 53-0 to a 4 loss team who themselves lost to a 5-6 team. Deerfield Beach got whipped 24-12 against Carol City who limped to a 5-6 record. So wouldn’t that kinda cancel out Zachary losing in state? Zachary finished top 10 in Louisiana regardless. And they lost 53-0. That’s the level of play in that state 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is when you act like Zachary is some sort of unbeatable machine.....we've been over this 100 times now and you still can't get it. Just like when North Carolina put 62 on Miami and had almost 600 yards rushing. High School Football is similar to College in a lot of ways....sometimes teams don't show up. But, keep pimping for the cookie. 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolebull813 Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 The problem with message boards is people love to make themselves look stupid by trying to justify the unjustifiable. Instead of Red Flag saying, “yeah Zachary got destroyed. It was a beat down from top to bottom. Nothing they could do. Just gotta give props to Deerfield and move on” But he twists himself into a pretzel trying to figure out how to soften the blow of embarrassment that Zachary displayed. No one would even make fun of them if Red Flag wasn’t trying to defend them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolebull813 Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 When Booker T beat Norcross 55-0 there would be no reason for any Georgia fans to try and justify the demolition. Same when Lowndes beat down MNW. You just looked at it and said Lowndes was better at everything. Nothing MNW could do. Props to Lowndes on the beat down. then you move on.

RedZone Posted July 7, 2021 Report Share Posted July 7, 2021 Finch has been blowing bc/sjr for over two weeks now......bc shits the bed twice in 2019 and Finch quickly changes the subject to Zachary, La. He's famous for this. He then claims "someone else" changed the subject. 😃 Anyways, don't forget that bc shit the bed twice in 2019......probably shit the bed a couple times this year too and if they do look for more Zachary scores. lol Too much, man!
