So could Class 2 Blair Oaks Beat all of class 4?
- Thread starter bhunt95
- Start date
Yeah. And anyone else in classes 1-4. Some would definitely be a challenge. But BO has too much speed.
Class 7 Illinois Nazareth Academy beat LN 20-6. They’re up 14-3 at half in class 7 title game.
BO is legit!
There’s some other funny score comparisons out there when considering MICDS, but hats off to them...they kept getting better.

Didn't BO barely beat the same Maryville team that Trinity pretty much handled with ease?
Yeah, the same Trinity team I think could play a few series with CBC. Trinity don't have the depth to play 4 qtrs with CBC but they definitely have the talent to matchup in speed and size.
It’s definitely funny. There’s tons of things that go on in games that create the outcome. Like with the class 7 Nazareth Academy? That’s saying BO would stomp them. Would they? I would say definitely not. It’s fun though to make these comparisons.[/QUOTE]
I don’t think MICDS would have beaten Webb or West Plains. They didn’t have to go through either of them on the way to the title game.
While BO is better based on scores than MICDS, that doesn’t mean they would beat the likes of Webb, Ladue or West Plains, Trinity or Cardinal Ritter.

Yeah, let's. It's not like Maryville didn't progress over the course of the season as well. I also want to say that BO does not have more speed than Ritter or Trinity as you suggested that they had too much speed for any team in classes 1-4.

They need to get past Lathrop before even thinking about that. There's a huge difference in talent (across the board) at C2 vs C4. Having watched a lot of metro area games, I don't think either of those teams playing in Lathrop yesterday would have been able to keep the clock from running vs the likes of Smithville, Kearney or Platte County on 99% of game days.
What a common opponent did 2 months ago doesn't mean much today. Your argument is akin to saying that the Chiefs lost to the Patriots...Detroit beat the Pats - therefore the Lions are better than the Chiefs.
That’s why I said let’s. I’m just saying the first game of season is usually not any teams best game of the season.
No? Pretty sure I mocked the idea common opponents are a good indication into who would win what. Try reading?
And get past Lathrop? Lamar is down this year and they won by a TD. I think BO will beat Lathrop fairly easily. And of course? I also stated there would be challenges in these classes.
BO could. But not Lamar this year for sure or Lathrop. BO should be class 3. And has a offense that’s rare for class 2 or would be deficient to stop in class 3. 99 percent of teams would have troubles against those teams. I agree?
If bo wins by 21+ need to rerun cards all time c2 bracket
Fair. So if that is the case, then I guess a lot of you looked into Tinity's first game against Colquitt the wrong way because of the lopsided loss, right? I mean, most of you wrote them off after that game. I even heard many here say that Maryville would turbo them. Fair to say you misjudged them?
Besides one game I never really thought they could lose. And it was against Boone. Yes a overreaction. But it was playoffs. Well besides lose to way bigger schools. I’m meaning to teams in class 3 in MO.

You have an excuse for everything. How about you make a list of all your predictions which have been wrong in the past 2 weeks.
You sure are mouthy. Lol how is that “an excuse? Teams are not the same team as they are from the start of the season. I’m sure if you listed predictions on here? You’d get some wrong to. And I’ll save you a unwittty response. I don’t care if others care about my predictions. This is a chat forum. I’ll do as I please. Good day to you quack.

Or BO is fortunate that Trinty moved up to class 3.
Use to think playing a team having D1 recruits wasnt an excuse to be beat by them. But after watching Trinity in person they are unbelievable good.
Maryville kept it close for a half (with help of penalties). When your giving up 100lbs per lineman that takes a toll on your defense front 7 and it showed in the 2nd half. 11 kids to D1 schools ( 7 to Illinois) in the next 2 years is unbelievable even for a class 6 team. Really thought their kids and coaches were a class act. Didn't see any showboating like CBC.

MICDS and Ladue should be a pretty good game. Comparing scores isn't the best way to predict matchups. Just like in boxing styles make fights. Certain teams play to certain teams strengths an visa versa. MICDS is rolling at the right time. I remember in 2016 a 3 loss Harrisonville team got hotter than jail house coffee and ran through Webb City, Parkway North and Kearney to it's first Class 4 title. Nobody saw that coming either. I wouldn't discredit either team that has made it this far.
Lets all be truthful. It is total BS that Maryville had to play against that.
I had not seen BO play so I didn’t comment, but I have watched LN play and while they have D1 talent, they don’t have the D1 talent Trinity and CR have. I think it would be a close game with BO, as I thought either Trinity or CR would beat LN by a few scores.

Also pays never to count anyone out in a backyard rivalry game like this.
He did play but was a non factor. I saw the game. I have seen many BO games. Downplay BO all you want based upon size and D1 whatever of other schools but size had nothing to do with how BO won yesterday. LN didn't come to play with the right mindset. You could see that they believed that their size would easily slow down BO offense enough to where LN can win with their power rush but when a team plays with the heart I saw yesterday and every other game they played it don't matter. BO met the physicality and slowed down the power rush to where they could get enough stops on a 3 and 7 and also a 4 and 2. They would get the ball back and put more points up as LN could not keep up with BO's WRs and could not disrupt the star QB Nolan Hair.
When it came to the point that LN was down and had no choice but throw it was obvious of where it was going every time. Since they were too predictable from there on BO adjusted and from then on out it was cruise control.
LN size only made it to where they didn't 3 and out. They usually took 3 to 4 downs every time to get the ball 10 yards. If they failed then they would almost always go on 4th down (except for one time when it was too late). Any team that relies on a 1Dimensional approach to beating BO will fail no matter how big and fast they are. You have to be efficient and you have to be able to throw the ball. Size did not matter.
Can BO beat Trinity... I think yes they can. Can they beat almost any team in class 3 and 4... we won't get to find that answer out. They would definitely give them a run for their money. That team can meet the physicality of any team out there.

I honestly think everyone understood Trinty's matchup with Colquitt was huge and a loss wouldn't translate to a bad season in MO Class 3. They aren't popular on this board but I think everyone respects their ability to win.

Yesterday was a trip down memory lane for me. Waaaaay back when I attended KHS Lathrop (particularly in boys hoops) was our #1 rival now they are light years apart even though the two school districts border one another in Holt. You are correct, of course, neither of yesterday's teams would match up well with the Highway 92 foursome (would also include Excelsior and their 2018 rushing offense). Much like Smithville this is "that" year for the Mules here's hoping they can pull it off as a pretty decided underdog to open Championship weekend next Friday PM in CoMo!
Just saw the 10 minutes highlights, no they can't beat Trinity, imo. Not trying to sound disrespectful, but I wasn't impressed. No way do i think they could beat Trinity if they are playing as they should.
I understand you feel this way, but I was on here reading after that loss and the majority wrote them off. The triple ot loss at East Stl the next week changed a few minds, however.
Yep, in the mud. 21pt win at least if it were dry. Sorry, BO looks pretty good, but nope, I saw nothing that says they could beat Trinity.
Azubuike played. He started on offense and defense. Blair Oaks was the better team yesterday. There are absolutely zero excuses. Blair Oaks absolutely is an outstanding football team.
South Boone’s field was a mess. Blair Oaks would’ve struggled too ... but if you want to keep telling yourself that Trinity sucks, then knock yourself out.
Yeah, hoping Lathrop brings their A game on Friday - looked like their rb (14) tweaked his ankle early in the 4th. He played both ways and they'll definitely need him. You making the trek to Columbia?
