Tell me about Platte County

[Jomjam]

As a fan of MICDS, what can I expect to see from Platte County?

It’s appears to be a well coached team with a A+ defense and good offense.

i don’t need a bunch of BS KC vs STL stuff, just genuinely curious what I am going to see.

Bonus question, how is the stadium?

 

[Oklah0maDrill]

They have a great QB and they spread you out. Big target for a TE and speedy receivers. If you play a soft zone like MICDS did against Smithville in 2021, they will carve you up like what happened in that semifinal game. Gotta play physical!

As a Kearney fan I would say we missed out on probably the best game of the season that we didn't play them. I honestly don't know we would beat them even knowing we have the better D. They have a QB that can do it all get him slowed down will be a huge key. But they have multiple backs and receivers that can execute at a high level. Added bonus they as in the core of the team is all JR's so if you can't get them this year next year will be ugly. Still can't believe the Suburban Conference didn't schedule these two been playing each other for the last 15-20 yrs. I would bet the house on KHS and PC on the schedule next year.

 

[Jomjam]

How was the PC strength of Schedule for the regular season. MICDS played LN and DeSmet with out Gould at QB (Tommy Johns). Not sure if that would have made a difference, but it is notable. The rest of MICDS schedule isn’t all that tough.

I agree with everything that was said by The Daddy... I saw them one time vs. a very good St Pius team and came away uber impressed ! Offensively they have as good a QB as i've ever seen come out of the KC area he is very athletic and has a cannon for an arm. The RB's appeared small but very quick with breakaway speed. They will test you with the deep ball.
Defensively, the thing that impressed me most was how well coached they were. They will show you multiple sets and their blitz packages will remind you of Spagnuolo and the Chiefs. This really seemed to confuse Pius as the game wore on... they couldn't block them !
All in all, they will be more than a hand full for whoever they play down the road.

On Offense they will Spread you out and run the ball well out of it to try and get you to pull a safety down, if you pull that safety down here comes the air raid, oh yeah you also have to spy the QB because if you do cover all the wide receivers he is gonna take off running for the 1st down. Its literally unfair the pass game makes you wanna play a 2 deep but then they beat you with run.

Defense is one word Fast they close ground so quick. there were a couple times vs webb I thought a Kick return was going somewhere and out of nowhere a guy closes and makes tackle. Same on the off tackle runs you and the RB see daylight and they turn the lights off quick

Thanks, sounds like the rams have their work cut out for them. MICDS has a lot of speed, I’m excited to see how they stack up.

This is what we call the Highway 92 Golden Rule.

I will take the last question all the seating (old Arrowhead Stadium individual seats) is on one side but they made a little gated hill behind the visitor sideline which will no doubt be packed.

The place is a bit tight with narrow walkways. Brand new stadium scoreboard plus about the best HS band you will ever hear!

Concessions are OK and they do a good job moving folks along.

to me concessions were cheap but i just bought drinks i think 2 waters and a gatorade was $4

SOS was not all that good but that may be the reason they look so fresh and healthy down this stretch.

2025 Marriott - Utz will be an even better QB-TE combo than (HUGE mouthful here) 2017 Staley.

 

[TheDaddy]

Pius might be the 2nd best team in the state time will tell

Yea might as well jam every receiver at the line of scrimmage and send 7 guys every play , get some solid hits on their QB. Maybe slow him down

 

[sw5890]

I heard a lot about PCs offense but I was equally if not more impressed with their defense. It was apparent to me early in the first quarter that they were probably going to shut out Webb city. To be fair Webb city probably didn’t belong in the quarters but still I haven’t seen a team shut down Webbs offense like that in a really long time even nixa earlier this year.

Offensively they seemed a bit similar to Nixa in that they could run or throw and even if you somehow managed to get them in a 3rd and forever situation they would get whatever they needed to move the sticks. Just a team functioning at a very high level. I was really impressed with them.

And then they burn you with that speedy RB, he was terrific! Will be surprised if PC loses this year.

As stated many times this year Platte County, Kearney and St. Pius X all have special squads. Hard to imagine PC playing better than that Pius game they were beyond the real deal.

Not if you knock the crap out of him at the line of scrimmage and the qb doesn’t have time to throw the ball

Seems stupid to me to have safeties 20 yards off of the line of scrimmage

 

[blindedbythelight]

How does he burn you if the QB doesn’t have time to give him the ball???

Seems 13 different defensive coaches tried to play conventional football against PC and none of them were close to successfull

Only chance is to go aggressive big time , I mean Webb gave up 35 points doing it the way everyone does,,,at some point it’s time to play something different

 

[TheDaddy]

Probably won't matter they have a screen game that is pretty good too.

Phew, that pair from Staley was legit, can’t imagine what the pair from PC will do if they’re only juniors.

 

[cardsfan200306]

oh you mean that TE thats high up in mo rankings too

 

[TheDaddy]

Yeah something like that.

TE Utz already has lots of major D1 offers. QB Marriott's will come.................

 

[blindedbythelight]

In high school you can block a receiver at or behind the line of scrimmage and it’s not pass interference can’t you??? Why in the world let the guy get open enough to catch a ball

 

[thetophat2021]

You either have the quality of athletes they do or you have little to no shot no matter what D you attempt.

You know last Sunday the Buffalo Bills had a tight end from Webb City playing football for them. We had another better than average tight end named Wistrom that played for years in the NFL.

The kid from PC isn’t close to being in their league, and you only have to slow him down and stay close enough the QB won’t want to throw him for 2-3 seconds until rush gets to him

damn dude webb lost and had a losing season.
Nobody gaf about your opinion. You're literally the only human on earth that thinks cantwell isn't amazing.

It's not all about webb. Take the rest of the season off so teams that win can talk.
