World Citizen Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 1 hour ago, ThunderRam said: Grant Union went up there the very next season and shut Bellevue out. Though they still won State, not really sure how good those Bellevue teams really were. They were good enough that if you didn't have an extremely athletic, top end defense that played assignment football, you would probably lose. Grant was all that imo. Don't know how many points they gave up that year but it wasn't much. They could have shut DLS down as much as anybody could shut them down that year. That would have been a great game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were a bit timid at the start of the SJC game, but once they started laying hat, the momentum started to shift. If they come out even more physical then they have in the first three games, I like their chances. I love how DLS hits. Just love it. Almost to a man, year in and year out, they hit you. Win or lose they hit you. D1 talent or not, they hit you. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been a great game. Grant had one badass defense that year with Mola, Lopa, Sample, and Shaq. Thompson who was a soph. Think they had 7 or 8 shutouts that year. Don't know how they ended up losing to Rocklin in the last game. Grant gets on the national radar about every 10 yrs. It'd be good to see them back up there again.

ThunderRam Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 1 hour ago, Mjd33 said: BG was better than MD in the trenches last year and could match them skill position wise. JT better pro prospect than martell but Tate was an incredible hs qb .... he's a winner. Cocky as shit but still a winner ..... Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that MD would surely win a hypothetical game. Just trying to make the point that just because BG has lost 2 games this season doesn't necessarily mean that they are really down. Perhaps the opponents they lost to are just really, really good. And to re-enforce that idea, I made the comment that I believe this current MD team could hang with last year's BG team which obviously didn't lose a game. In short, BG lost to 2 elite teams. That happens from time to time when you play these types of games. Even when you have the necessary horses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would have been a great game. Totally agree. In fact I've cited that Bellevue game many times in support of the idea that DLS would have had their hands full with that Pacers team. They were upset by a Rocklin team that was exceptional not only on the ground, but in the air too. One dimensional offenses couldn't move the ball on Grant Union. They just completely stuffed the run and had a pass rush that overwhelmed pass heavy teams. As well balanced and talented as that Rocklin team was, they still only scored 21 points and had to rely on a missed 21-yd FG to pull off the upset. It's funny how things work out. Having seen all those teams play a lot, the 2009 Pacers team that lost in the section semi's to Rocklin was better than the 2008 team that won the Open State title. I think the 2010 team was better than the 08 team too, they just suffered too many injuries to key two way players and ran into a hot Folsom team with a very dynamic offense and dual threat QB. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rippers Posted September 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 "Just trying to make the point that just because BG has lost 2 games this season doesn't necessarily mean that they are really down." And you are probably right. However, even if BG wins state and finished the season with 3 losses, someone somewhere will take up the narrative that they sucked and DLS took advantage of it sometime between the end of the season and beyond. If they finish with 2 losses, implying that they beat DLS, someone will still use the loss to demean DLS's season, especially if DLS ends up with only that 1 loss (or even a second loss vs MD to end the season). People have been decrying DLS's success since the invention of the internet message board. The evolution of their digressions has been amusing to say the least. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year was a somewhat down year for DLS. At least by DLS standards so its entirely possible the bishop could have won last year. But every other year?

Or enlightenment hits us at different times i knew DLS was better and was BG wasn't going to be as good (I said they'd start 2-2, so now I'm hoping for 1-3). Still, they're a talented group of kids whose 1st 4 opponents are top 10 (or, for dematha, were at game time).

The 10' Grant team that played Folsom in the CIF/SJS finals was a shell of themselves. I was at the first game and it wasn't that close. Second game might have been a little tighter ( 2-3 TD's) against a healthy Grant, but Grant still wins for sure. Amd I do think the healthy version of Grant matched up wlll w DLS and def could have beat them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was responding to someone suggesting that DLS was waiting for the right time to schedule Gorman2 theyve been as good or better than Gorman every year since except last year i wasnt trying to say who wins as much as I was making a point in who was considered stronger the offseason prior (for scheduling purposes) DLS finished 3rd, 7th, 1st, 6th, 3rd, and 3rd in company polls from '10-'15 when they did NOT schedule Gorman and now they scheduled a 3x defending USAT champ against a team that was called DLS's worst team in last 25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
