Loved the pirate take, but unfortunately the only Pirate standing still is Platte Co.!!! As far as privates, CBC and John Burroughs eliminated. If I sub in DeSmet in Class 6 and Lift for LIfe (Open Enrollment Charter School), the new Private Sweep looks like this:

Class 6 DeSmet
Class 5 Cardinal Ritter
Class 4 Lutheran North
Class 3 Lift for Life
Class 2 Valle
Class 1 St. Vincent

Really looking forward to this weekend but I hope we get to see the Cardinal Ritter v Platte Co in Class 5 (Finals) and Kearney v Lutheran N in Class 4 (Semi) in the future. Both of those games would be must purchase and watch!!!

Top 5 in Class 6 remaining

1. Lee's Summit North
2. Nixa
3. Liberty
4. Kirkwood
5. Park Hill
 
I am beginning to believe indeed these Liberty Blue Jays can ride that D to Columbia!
A match-up contrast with Park Hill's Air Coryell. Someone was blubbering on here about Park Hill's O-line being one of the best in the state. Okay...
21-17 the last time, in favor of Park Hill. I'm guessing Liberty overcomes. They had internal issues going on at that time. They don't now.
FYI: Liberty's lines are better.

I've seen them both and couldn't agree more especially the left to center of Liberty's OL the C and LG are YUGE.

Lutheran North on offense versus:

Alabama Team

244 Rushing (5.81 ypc), 94 passing 117 return yards (48% of total yards)

MICDS

214 Rushing Yards, 137 passing 48 returns (14% of total yards)

Cardinal Ritter

164 Rushing (3.78 ypc) Passing 164, 209 return yards (45% of total yards)

Overall 33% of total yards from KO returns. Kick through the end zone? I wonder who does that?


DEFENSE


Vs. MICDS

MICDS Offense had...

35 Rushes for 164 yards (4.69 ypc)
145 yards passing
4 returns for 69 yards
LN got three Ints (red alert)

Cardinal Ritter Offense had....
43 carres for 366 yards (8.51 ypc)
28/35 passing for 373 yards
739 Yards on Offense
LN got two INTS (red alert)

Lesson: Don't throw too much. But you can run on them. See previous posts about lines.

Haha I am composing one of those huge threads for this one provided it happens. That single path I could see WBurg drawing KMO into a shootout is fading fast. Not sure where this Tigers D would rate on Kearney's schedule but I'd say not near the top. My main LN issue is DEPTH. Will they need it come Q4 is a huge question.................see I can't resist superstitious as I am about doing this when a game is not even on the slate yet.

Warrensburg D is pretty much near the bottom. They have given up 6-10 points above Opponent's average scoring to most of the teams they have faced.

They have a great QB and RB seems like they want to win shootout after shootout. Only blemish was first Pleasant Hill game. Therein lies another issue SCHEDULE. Much as I love the MRVC West it just flat won't prep anyone for these very physical major teams like Kearney (I think Smithville or Savannah who played Pleasant Hill very tough as well may have won this D7 and that league).
 
Desmet no
CR 60/40
LN 35/65
LFL no shot
Valle 50/50
St Vinny 80/20
DeSmet is better than you think, i would say 25/75, beat an Edwardsville (IL) 42-19 . a team who only lost to East St. Louis by a touchdown and beat Jackson 41-7
CR I agree
LN 50/50 (But really like the stats posted in this thread about return yards)
LFL-Would not sleep on them, they are playing well in small school class
Valle-agree
St. Vinny-agree

No one should sleep on Desmet

K's opponent's average scoring vs. what they scored on K

Fort 28.2 - 0
Smithville 35.5 - 7
Park Hill 34.6 - 17
Grain Valley 34.7 - 6
Savannah 34.5 - 0

The rest of that Edwardsville schedule outside of the ESL game is EXTREMELY underwhelming. I wouldn’t call that a high quality win whatsoever. Quality, sure.

There is a better chance that the Norwood Pirates win class 1 than there is that this StL sweep of yours will happen.
