Final

Each week ive tried to do something new, this week ill include what and why i think cal preps is wrong
You have seen me disagree with calpreps repeatedly but never elaborate on it, however you see the team changes here and can even track score disparity if you wanted.

CR vs Lafayette is probably spot on
Helias vs Republic is eye opening for some and comes from repub beating a Branson team that was given too much credit. don't get me wrong I think Cal Preps is close on this one just don't agree with how they got there. Repub was better than Branson from Day 1.
MICDS vs FZW having not seen either play i would lean towards FZW making it closer than 25 points most likely 14 or less but then again this is my least confident game
Webb vs PC Webb is getting too much credit for beating a Carthage team that was missing a huge playmaker and made 1000 mistakes. PC hasnt scored less than 40 since week 3 and that dont change this week PC by 21+

Ritter vs Republic is much closer this year 7 or less but CR still wins
MICDS vs PC is another 20 pt win by PC

Ritter vs PC this may be the game where PC doesn't score 40 or the game where they score 60 depends on how PC defense does but PC still wins. If CR can keep their heads its a close game if they start self destructing it gets ugly.

call me wrong, call me crazy, call me whatever you want just dont call @BoosterBosko late to dinner cuz that mfer sleeps at the table

That Helias Catholic-Republic rematch could be the C5 game of the week. Was a one score RepMO win last year this same round.

IF Platte County and MICDS, as we suspect, face off it will be in STL Thanksgiving weekend. Not good for Plaza Frontenac Christmas shopping..............:)

If you're already at the table, you're not gonna miss a meal! That's called efficiency!

Very true! Also, MICDS for all its pomp and circumstance is a very difficult place to play. Smithville, Lutheran North and maybe one other school are the only teams to get a win out of that place in the last 5plus years.

The 2021 Smithville win was epic. One of the best finishes I've ever seen.
 
Watching film on Platte... what stands out to the KC homers besides their super juniors at QB and TE. Line is an undersized class 5 but plays good technique. D doesnt pop off the paper but plays really fast. What should a fan look for friday?

Team speed plus perhaps now the top class of 2026 QB prospect (unless he chooses baseball - this kid so reminds me of Blake McFadden from Savannah 2011) in all MO. Had this been some ho-hum overmatched opponent I would have left thinking "as expected". The 2024 St. Pius X Warriors were another special team up this way THAT is what made this performance so outstanding.

Absolutely scary what they bring to the table when on like last Friday night but these kids have never been in an atmosphere like Cardinal Stadium (the HC has twice) and the core of the whole squad is JRs so they could be a bit off stride early but I doubt it. I haven't seen an offense like that in a loooooong while.

That's wrong and crazy. Hell, Platte County has played a Viking Tykes schedule all year. What you wish and hope will not happen.

Stay tuned. It will play itself out
Platte County by a mile................it always starts with the QB he is the best in KC since Miami Dolphins backup Skylar Thompson. A receiving corps deluxe and an underrated D that really bothered an outstanding Pius who beat one of the top teams all classes in KS (St. James Academy) and played Rockhurst within 6 until the last couple of minutes.

Now if the bus breaks down or all the kids get the flu....................

ok, platte county wins it all, got it.
 
@HHSX2 your presence is being requested
Sorry was on vacation today. LOL We brought back the majority of the team from last year. Personally, I think our defense is better than last years squad once they got everything figured out earlier in the year. Offense is pretty good on both run and pass. Still haven't seen that one signature offensive game as of yet. I know they worked on defending the onside kick. IYNYK. Should be a good game. I like our chances but I wouldn't put money on it.
