Boy, what will the discussion be if this happens. Class 3 is the only Class where a Private School is not favored. I love supporting the STL teams, but if 5 out of 6 championships go to private, then there might be a need to put all the private schools in their own bracket. I really do no see anyone beating Cardinal Ritter or Lutheran North, CBC has been solid. Valle is who Valle is and St. Vincent looks awfully good.

Nightmare Finals

Class 6 CBC over DeSmet
Class 5 Cardinal Ritter over Helias
Class 4 Lutheran North v Kearney
Class 3 St. Francis Borgia v Blair Oaks
Class 2 Valle over Fair Grove
Class 1 St. Vincent over Tipton

Like I said, Class 3 is a reach, but the rest could happen.
 
Where do you get that LN is favored. The only projection site i know of is cal preps and they have K favored by 10 in playoff match

Also Helias is in D5 so they can't be in ship with Ritter 1 and 2 play 5 and 6, 3 and 4 play 7 and 8
 
Made mistake on Helias, put MICDS in vs Ritter (I believe in Frank Bouchard!!!). And Lutheran North might be the best team in Missouri!!!
 
I am with cardsfan, I would like to know where he got this predictions from that show LN is favored?
 
In the Semis, Kearney will be the best team LN has played all year and they are way better in the trenches than CR.

You guys realize they beat Ritter right? You guys keep acting like kearney is the best team of all time. They very well may win it but saying LN is gonna win the title is far from crazy and I think most people, including myself, would be pleasantly surprised if kearney is able to pull it off

You realize that neither of us said anything about them being the best team of all time. We simply asked for his source for where they were listed as a favorite?

Extreme discipline plus several of these kids are headed to (major) college FB so agree. The only way anyone can truly appreciate this group is to attend a game in person.
 
You looking for a source? North is the Top ranked team in Class 4 and they beat the Top ranked team in Class 5. That is what makes them the favorite
That does not really make them the favorite. Kearney is the defending champ and undefeated. That could be seen as the favorite as well.

But I think cards fan and I both were looking to see how you were coming to that conclusion. Was it cal preps or another source. But we see now that this is just your opinion

Don't mistake this Kearney grad saying I like this team a lot for thinking in any way either they or Lutheran North will win a semi matchup (should it actually happen) by blowout. I see low scoring and close but let's revisit that IF this game happens Thanksgiving Weekend.
On another note our 21 mile to the west neighbor Platte County also has a very special team even for the high level of their program particularly OFFENSIVELY. Don't count them out..................

How good is PC going to be next year? I imagine they pick up some Northland/St Joe transfers.
I wonder if Pius/Fort rolls in there coming off a state semifinal type game and they just played some mediocre to bad teams for 6 weeks if that is going to hurt them. Hard to quantify those things. Same situation with Nixa

Lots back next year including QB Marriott. Yes that is why I 100 percent plan to attend both your semi and that final regardless who wins between Fort and Pius. It may early on but they will hit stride especially after half in my opinion.
 
I’m not sold on Kearney’s offense. They need to find some more physicality before Smithville rematch or they could lose that game. If the defense wasn’t world class and they didn’t score on special teams they could have lost to Smithville….

I thought Kearney got pushed around by park hills dline and Smithville dline and Kearneys QB still can’t throw….

What happens when you start a SOPH QB. Pius and Platte County went through the same last year. That kid has lots of upside (size, arm strength, smart runner).

The O Line, agree to a point, has been a bit spotty against better D Lines but Park Hill had a monster on that side of the ball. Remember those games were back in weeks 3-4. I'd bet anything we see lots of power running with the deep ball mixed in. Minnick is also, bank on it, keeping several plays in the file cabinet.

This is true. I got a family member who coach’s at park hill and he said it was an impossible front. You can’t prepare for them dropping 8 and ruining every play instantly. The issue with Kearney is the elite level safety speed behind the dline.

Another huge problem is their dline and LBErs can outrun most rbs they play and you can’t get to Theo this year because the dline ruins every play so he is going to wreck anyone he faces since he’s untouched.

The move against Kearney is punt the ball on first down and get their offense back on the field and let the sophmore QB make terrible mistakes that he keeps making.

Remember KMO has a nice JR backup QB with lots of experience as well. Great insurance policy plus, again, this offense has been pretty vanilla this regular season. This is a very, very hard working bunch from HC to staff to players so let's see what unfolds....................

Don’t know anything about the backup….

Also, I pulsed one of the guys at William Jewel and he told me Kearney has 4 kids who could start on their defense right now. Thought all 4 would be near top of conference due to strength and speed….

Anyone who doesn’t realize what they’re watching right now better pay attention because this is generational defense. All classes..

Joeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy sttttoooooooooooooppppppppppppppppppppppppp

nobody buys your schtick.

Poor top gotta put up with this.
 
I am actually surprised no one made the old mistake that people have made for years thinking Blair Oaks was a private school which it is not. Great Job.

BTW, in Class 3, Borgia has not truly been tested completely yet so they could be better than what people are making them. Will they beat Seneca? Maybe... but they for sure will give Seneca all that they can handle and that is for sure.

LN in Class 4 can win with their speed. Good luck Kearney, if they can control the line then they could slow down their offense a bit but good luck on doing that all 4 quarters.

Valle Catholic will be Valle Catholic and I am sure they are thrilled to be in Class 2 instead of 3 now.

St. Vincent, very impressive season.
 
Ask Bosko....
Excuse me?? I keep coming to MoSports to enjoy witty banter, sharing sage advice, and reliving the ole glory days with my fellow Doc Guys. Does this place sometimes devolve into a complaining fest? Sure. Do we all sometimes make fun of each other? Of course. But have I made some friends along the way? Absolutely! Im looking at THE MoSports CLOWN @HomeyR !!

It would not surprise me if Borgia doesn't make it out their district with Lift for Life and John Burroughs.

I agree, Borgia is a long shot, and you are right, Their district will be hard to get out of. I hope most of you on here realize that the picks of private vs private was done intentionally to show the possibility. I am not unaware that both Platte Co and Kearney can win the title and that Class 6 is wide open. Good luck to all the teams, but I will say that Lutheran North might be the best team in Missouri regardless of size. They have a great scholar recruitment program!!! Lol

This isn’t wrong. The best three football teams I’ve seen this year are Platte CTY, Kearney and LN. the thing about LN is they’re lazy and not physical. PC defense isn’t near their offense. Kearney is the best football team I’ve seen this year but has holes in the offense that could be glaring vs LN or even Smithville RM.

I’ve said it before but Kearney’s defense is absolutely the most violent defense I’ve seen in the last twenty years.

LN lazy? A lazy defense does not get 2 blocked punts against CR. A lazy defense does not get several interceptions against Blair Oaks. LN is far from being... lazy.

Have you seen Kearney play? I have seen LN play they have several bigger kids that play both ways and that will be a problem for them later in the game. I hope this game happens because I am holding a lot of receipts if it goes like I think it will.
 
Says the guy with 234092834902384293482 handles that thinks he needs to fluff his favorite team.
Phew.
You keep suggesting I’m some guy who terrorized you for years. I appreciate the delineation of accepting your low IQ but I assure you I’m verified and not whoever you think I am. Keep the fight, weakling
