0:17
[SPEAKER_03]: It's only on the Central Indiana Sports Report.
0:26
[SPEAKER_03]: Welcome high school football fans to the Central Indiana Sports Report.
0:30
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm your host Greg Mengell joined by the action sport to duo of Kevin Hellfrick and Grant Shows and the Tipton Tribune and Elwood Collider Sports Editor, Michelle Garmin, to make our weekly picks and talk about 20 of the best games across Central Indiana, 20 of the best and most competitive we threw a couple in there that aren't necessarily the best games but they're really competitive.
0:54
[SPEAKER_03]: So we are going to preview and predict those 20 games and after a big 16 and 4 last week Kevin Hellfrick and now in the lead with 107 points, shella second with 105, I have 103 grant 100, but this is the week where I make my comeback.
1:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, but I'm gonna make it come back here so you still stay behind me.
1:22
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't call it to come back, I'm back on top.
1:24
[SPEAKER_03]: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
1:46
[SPEAKER_03]: The Central Indiana Sports Report local game of the week is for the conference championship.
1:52
[SPEAKER_03]: It is the Mr. Sinoa Indians at the Madison Grant R. Giles.
1:57
[SPEAKER_03]: The last few years this game has determined the conference championship and it's been Mrs. Sinoa the last few years.
2:05
[SPEAKER_03]: And it seems like the Indians are the favorites even on the road, but this is a Madison Grant team that's been proven as wrong all year.
2:13
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I have gone against matters and granted quite a bit the season and fortunately last week I went against and we got the big win with Alexandria coming to town for that one.
2:24
[SPEAKER_03]: I picked against them a lot too, and it's usually come back to bite me and they've just been way better than I expected.
2:33
[SPEAKER_03]: They're going to have to be really good to beat this missus in a while team though.
2:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I agree I was talking to Scott Hunt at the girl's soccer section little kill on Monday and he was talking about the cranial kid from Missacina Wall and with the season he's having just how good he is and I make mass ingerant has to play a perfect game and I watch that game from start to finish the Eastbrook Missacina Wall game and I'm telling you it was not a typical 33 to nothing game very competitive the one difference.
3:07
[SPEAKER_03]: was the Levi-Crandell just broke it three really big roads.
3:14
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, when you have a back like that, I mean, it makes a huge difference.
3:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Then he's got people in front of him, and he just needs, he just needs the same.
3:23
[SPEAKER_03]: 225 yards again.
3:30
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's a Madison Grant team that's been really good against the run until last week when they weren't when why it fuller and all over them.
3:38
[SPEAKER_03]: They had been great against the run all year.
3:41
[SPEAKER_03]: And on the other side, Harry Brooks has been really good to the Madison, the Mississippi Wall run defense has been stellar lately as well.
3:49
[SPEAKER_02]: They're coming off back to back shut out to black for an ease, but that defense has found its strides and is giving up 34 in the opening week of the season.
3:59
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, Kevin, it's that time you are the lead this week.
4:03
[SPEAKER_03]: Who are you taking for the CIC championship is it gonna be the Mississippi and the Indians or the Madison Grand Argos?
4:08
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll tell you what is gonna have to be the lead by Crandell show early on.
4:11
[SPEAKER_02]: Is their quarterback is suspended for the first half of this one due to a penalty late in the game last week in that 33-0 win is what I've heard.
4:22
[SPEAKER_02]: So having said that, I still think Crandell's enough.
4:30
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm right there with you.
4:31
[SPEAKER_03]: You could direct snap to Levi Crandel and this one, Mrs. Sinowals is gonna win this one, go in a way, very impressed with what Madison Grants done this year.
4:39
[SPEAKER_03]: A couple of years ago, we're in the same situation and it really felt like Mrs. Sinowals is gonna win fairly comfortably.
4:46
[SPEAKER_03]: They were unbeaten, and Madison Grants took them all the way to the end of that game, and I could see that happening.
4:53
[SPEAKER_03]: I think two touchdowns might be too much, but it's definitely a Mrs. Sinowal win for me.
5:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know that'll necessarily matter the shorts is suspended for Mrs. Cinema on the first half.
5:06
[SPEAKER_01]: I think you're right, you can almost direct snap to Randall and just let him do his thing.
5:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm with both of you here.
5:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking Mrs. Cinema.
5:14
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it could be close for a half if shorts isn't playing.
5:18
[SPEAKER_01]: But then I think Mrs. Cinema when they get him back and are able to get into a rhythm and are able to get Randall going a little more in a system that he's used to.
5:30
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the center wall runs away and wins this one in the second half.
5:35
[SPEAKER_03]: By the way, Michelle, I forgot to mention that according to the Sagarin rating, Mr. Senwa was a 16 point favorite.
5:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Mr. Senwa will win by more than 16.
5:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I know Madison grants, they're going to come in wanting to win and to get back on the winning track.
5:52
[SPEAKER_00]: But I saw something that Ellic did very successfully in that running game without having
6:01
[SPEAKER_00]: on their team.
6:01
[SPEAKER_00]: So I wouldn't be surprised if Mr. Senate will doesn't pick up something any type of blocky scheme or formation type thing.
6:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I agree with Grant and Mr. Senate won't win just going away.
6:13
[SPEAKER_03]: And we move the game number two, which is one of the CIC's biggest rivalries.
6:18
[SPEAKER_03]: Rarely over the last 20, 25 years is this game not had CIC championship applications.
6:24
[SPEAKER_03]: This year it does not still a really big game.
6:27
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think it's going to be a really good game.
6:29
[SPEAKER_03]: Eastbrook at Oak Hill, Kevin.
6:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, Eastbrook right now is on the downside of an up and down season, having lost four times.
6:39
[SPEAKER_02]: I've seen him a couple times.
6:42
[SPEAKER_02]: Oak Hill haven't seen since week one.
6:43
[SPEAKER_02]: However, I do like the direction that Bud Osmond has his team going.
6:48
[SPEAKER_02]: It's yet out at quarterback.
6:49
[SPEAKER_02]: He can run, he can throw.
6:51
[SPEAKER_02]: And Oak Hill is being east for three or the last four years.
6:53
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me the Golden Eagles at home.
6:58
[SPEAKER_03]: I think everybody thinks I'm crazy.
6:59
[SPEAKER_03]: The score was 33 to nothing, that's a blowout.
7:01
[SPEAKER_03]: But Eastbrook was stopped inside the 20 yard line a couple of times.
7:05
[SPEAKER_03]: They had to turn over inside the 20.
7:08
[SPEAKER_03]: That game was not a blowout like it looks on the scoreboard.
7:12
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think Eastbrook's playing that poorly.
7:14
[SPEAKER_03]: They were a couple of executions away from having a chance in that game late into the third quarter.
7:21
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm taking Eastbrook.
7:23
[SPEAKER_01]: I agree with you in a lot of what you just said, Greg,
7:27
[SPEAKER_01]: I've seen Oak Hill the last two weeks.
7:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Offensively, they looked amazing last week against Northwestern.
7:32
[SPEAKER_01]: The Dillon Archer was great for them over 230 yards of rushing.
7:39
[SPEAKER_01]: four touchdowns on the ground for him.
7:41
[SPEAKER_01]: He had two interceptions on defense and jet out of course was amazing and You kind of think it's a two-man show with a and archer, but then you forget that they have really two tall long Lanky wide receiver my or my or Middlesworth and Kavate Simmons I really like East Brook though.
8:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I like Calwell coach.
8:01
[SPEAKER_01]: They are these two teams are a very similar in style
8:05
[SPEAKER_01]: you're going to see a lot more of the past from Oak Hill than you will e-sbrook.
8:10
[SPEAKER_01]: These two teams do the same thing.
8:12
[SPEAKER_01]: They have coaches that have coached against each other for over, well almost 30 years now.
8:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Jeff Adams in 31 and 11 all time against Oak Hill, but Osman only 8 and 23 all time against e-sbrook.
8:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me the Golden Eagles on Friday night.
8:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I think they went a close one.
8:33
[SPEAKER_00]: He's going to be close to and I'm also going to stay with O'Kill.
8:37
[SPEAKER_00]: They have, they have found a group right now and I think East Brook is still, even though that game may have been closer than 33 to 0 last week, I think East Brook is still trying to find.
8:51
[SPEAKER_00]: find itself and find a really good identity.
8:53
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's a little different from East Brook teams of the past, but I think it's because they lost a lot and I don't think they've really found answers yet and I like the way Oak Hill's plan.
9:06
[SPEAKER_01]: One other stat I wanted to throw out here, Greg, is that East Brook has only been swept by the four or the three other grant four schools, which would be Oak Hill, Mrs.
9:22
[SPEAKER_01]: in the regular season.
9:24
[SPEAKER_01]: And both of those came 10 years apart, 2014, and 2024, Eastford, both went forward six in those years with Jeff Adams.
9:33
[SPEAKER_01]: So if history tells you anything, they're not gonna get swept on Friday.
9:37
[SPEAKER_01]: They're gonna win that game to avoid the sleep.
9:40
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know that it can happen.
9:41
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think they can avoid this one.
9:43
[SPEAKER_01]: So I think you're going road, Greg.
9:47
[SPEAKER_03]: I love going road with Jeff Adams, and I'll take it.
9:50
[SPEAKER_03]: The game number three is the game that Michelle is going to be covering Elwood at Frankton.
9:55
[SPEAKER_03]: Elwood officially two and four, but they have an eight on eight win.
9:59
[SPEAKER_03]: So we're going to count them three and four because we love the Elwood Panthers on this podcast.
10:04
[SPEAKER_03]: Frankton is one and six, but coming off it's first win of the season 48 to seven over Blackford and sophomore quarterback Rowan, Brandon had a breakout performance in that one.
10:20
[SPEAKER_03]: But Franklin, according to Saigran, is a 30 point favorite in this one to win your second game of the year.
10:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, after watching what Franklin did to Blackford last week and everything, but this is a rivalry.
10:34
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Yellow can come out and hang with them early and they'll have confidence because even though it was an eight man win, I was one two and a row, but I just think Franklin
10:47
[SPEAKER_00]: And you mentioned room, Brandon, but I'll say who's really come on and having a great year for the Eagles as a sparker.
10:54
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I think Frank didn't continue to play improved football.
10:58
[SPEAKER_02]: And this is going to be their second straight win and it's not going to be very close.
11:02
[SPEAKER_03]: I grew up with Elwood Franklin games with Elwood winning these games by 40, 50, 60 points.
11:08
[SPEAKER_03]: And unfortunately for the Panthers, that's probably how it's going to go for them on Friday night.
11:13
[SPEAKER_03]: It's the Eagles easily.
11:17
[SPEAKER_01]: in the Greg Mengel Bowl, I will be tasting Franklin.
11:22
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a good call on that, there.
11:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Grant the Greg Mengel Bowl.
11:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
11:28
[SPEAKER_02]: That was on the fly.
11:29
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm gonna get a trophy out there for that one.
11:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I've been cranking.
11:35
[SPEAKER_00]: They were not happy when they walked off that field at Panther Stadium last year on the short end.
11:42
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think those kids, those seniors, especially that's Frank and Senior Knight, they're gonna be charged up to play.
11:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Hopefully I would can maybe hang with them for a quarter, but I like Frank and by at least three to four touchdowns.
12:00
[SPEAKER_03]: I think we need a trophy, a great men-gelt trophy for this one.
12:06
[SPEAKER_03]: The game number 4 in the CIC is Blackford at Alexandria and Kevin quickly.
12:11
[SPEAKER_03]: Give me the Tigers not even close back on the roll.
12:14
[SPEAKER_03]: Alexandria Alexandria Alexandria Alexandria Alexandria.
12:22
[SPEAKER_03]: And we move to the Hoosier Conference where we have three really good games on Friday night starting with Tipton at West Lafayette.
12:31
[SPEAKER_03]: West Lafayette has been a thorn in the side of Tipton and the tolls over the years.
12:36
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't imagine there's a program that the tolls just like much more than West Lafayette.
12:42
[SPEAKER_03]: Tipton four and three, the red devil's one and six.
12:46
[SPEAKER_03]: Let's start with you Michelle.
12:48
[SPEAKER_03]: Sagrant has West Lafayette by 8.65 is Quintol going to be available and can the tip defense hold up?
12:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if Quint is going to be available or not.
13:00
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just kind of a day-to-day week-to-week thing.
13:03
[SPEAKER_00]: But I will say this, Lincoln wrote a ball, oh, man.
13:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Last week, I mean, the kid was calm, cool, and collect just a sophomore making his first start.
13:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Throws for 384 yards, and I believe his six touchdown passes tied or records that by Quintel last year when he was a sophomore in their win at Franklin.
13:25
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's a nice performance by wroteable.
13:30
[SPEAKER_00]: It helps when you have weapons to throw to like Dakota Garmin.
13:34
[SPEAKER_00]: And,
13:45
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not there, it's not there quite yet.
13:48
[SPEAKER_00]: There's still not tackling super well.
13:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, Aaron liked the performance of his team last week in the fact that even getting down and making some mistakes, they kept fighting back.
13:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I think because the way West Lafayette's gone in the Hoosier Conference, win one week, lose, win, lose.
14:07
[SPEAKER_00]: They're at home.
14:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I will take West Lafayette, but if Tipped and pulls off an upset, I won't say I'm stunned.
14:15
[SPEAKER_00]: But I will take the red devils in this one at home.
14:20
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, Michelle, just to litified my pick, I'll take West Lafayette.
14:24
[SPEAKER_02]: She's going to get to Tipped and I'm going against Tipped and the way they give up points, give me West Lafayette at home.
14:31
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, I'm not.
14:32
[SPEAKER_03]: Here's what I know.
14:33
[SPEAKER_03]: I know that
14:35
[SPEAKER_03]: twin lakes is better than West Lafayette and Tippedon was very competitive with twin lakes a couple of stops and they win that game without Quintel with or without him.
14:45
[SPEAKER_03]: I like Zanderam on the ground.
14:47
[SPEAKER_03]: I like to go to Carmen through the air and I like the Tippedon Blue Devils to win this game.
14:52
[SPEAKER_02]: Your key words were there if they would get the few stuff.
14:55
[SPEAKER_02]: They couldn't stop their grandma.
14:57
[SPEAKER_03]: But West Lafayette is not twin lakes.
15:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I was going to, I was going to give you one more update, I forgot.
15:03
[SPEAKER_00]: Jared Aller, who's an outside linebacker of Titan, he's at least this week, he's suffered a concussion last week.
15:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I saw him the other night, Jared said his headaches are gone, he's hoping to be back on the field next week, but not only as a tipped-in defense struggled, they're kind of depleted right now with some injuries and banged-ups, so that's a big reason that I am taking West Lafayette.
15:31
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was going to pick tipped and honestly, but you know, you keep telling me that and their defense is depleted.
15:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm rolling the dice to feel like I'm going to take West Lafayette on Friday.
15:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Who I get to go rogue with Jeff Adams and Anne Aaron toll.
15:46
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it.
15:46
[SPEAKER_02]: Game number combined seven and seven this year.
15:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Still love it.
15:54
[SPEAKER_03]: Jeff Adams and an Aaron toll is underdogs.
15:56
[SPEAKER_03]: I like my chances.
15:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Another great game in the Hooser Conference.
16:01
[SPEAKER_03]: We have four and three Hamilton Heights at 6 in one twin lakes.
16:06
[SPEAKER_03]: Twin Lakes coming off a 71 point performance against Tipton while Hamilton Heights is coming off back to back winds and looking really good of late this one, Saggeran has twin lakes by 3.45 and a win by Hamilton Heights would clinch the conference championship for Logan's port, which is going out of conference this week, not playing Benton Central instead playing Culver Academy, just as a side note, Kevin.
16:33
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's going to be a really good football game, but I think Twin Lakes is the better rounded football team.
16:39
[SPEAKER_02]: I think they win this one at home.
16:43
[SPEAKER_03]: I disagree with you again, Kevin.
16:45
[SPEAKER_03]: See, it's not like last time you let off just all a agreement after I think Hamilton Heights is the better overall football team.
16:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Twin Lakes can really throw it.
16:53
[SPEAKER_03]: The Hamilton Heights has some athletes on the back end.
16:56
[SPEAKER_03]: They're not going to do two Hamilton Heights, what they did in Tippedon.
16:59
[SPEAKER_03]: I like Hamilton Heights a lot in
17:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, that's all right.
17:04
[SPEAKER_01]: You can like them, but I like Twin Lakes.
17:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is going to be another shootout like Tipton and Twin Lakes last week and I early on in that game and really from most of that game with Tipton Lesser, I couldn't tell which team hat was the worst tackling team.
17:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm telling you what, Tipton had big plays because Dakota Garman broke tackle spun out of tackle Zingur and did the same thing, but what Twin Lakes has, they had the best quarterback.
17:34
[SPEAKER_00]: into who's your conference.
17:35
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be they're at home.
17:37
[SPEAKER_00]: It's their senior night.
17:38
[SPEAKER_00]: Cooper told is a senior and he can throw when he can run and their little running back hides behind people and he's good in the screen game and twin likes has some good receivers like heights does.
17:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I know I think this is just going to be back and forth.
17:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I do think as far as
18:00
[SPEAKER_00]: special teams, perhaps heights as an edge, but I don't know.
18:03
[SPEAKER_00]: And Twin Lakes kicker kicks it pretty deep himself.
18:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I am, you could be rogue.
18:10
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it will be close.
18:11
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna take twin lakes, but I think it's going to be really close.
18:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think it'll be by more than a touchdown.
18:20
[SPEAKER_00]: If they weren't at home, it wasn't seen your night.
18:22
[SPEAKER_00]: And like I said, I couper do old in person last Friday night.
18:27
[SPEAKER_00]: And he's really good.
18:30
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, he is.
18:31
[SPEAKER_03]: That's three of six, by the way, I've gone rogue and I'm about to go rogue again in this one as well.
18:37
[SPEAKER_03]: We have a central Catholic at Western Central Catholic coming off a big win over West Lafayette now three and four.
18:44
[SPEAKER_03]: Western is two and five central Catholic is favored according to Sagrin by 13 points Kevin.
18:53
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep, central Catholic Western not having a very good year at all, I'll take central Catholic on the road.
19:00
[SPEAKER_03]: I disagree again.
19:01
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Western is the better team.
19:03
[SPEAKER_03]: They're starting to play a lot better.
19:05
[SPEAKER_03]: They can really run the ball.
19:07
[SPEAKER_03]: They couldn't last week against Logan's port.
19:09
[SPEAKER_03]: But they have been able to run the ball the last three or four games.
19:14
[SPEAKER_03]: They have three or four different guys who can beat you on the ground.
19:17
[SPEAKER_03]: I watched Central Catholics defense try to stop tipped in all night and could not.
19:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Great, you're not going to rogue because I'm picking Western as well.
19:24
[SPEAKER_00]: Same reason.
19:25
[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to be big up front.
19:27
[SPEAKER_00]: We saw that Central Catholic is not very big up front.
19:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Western will control the tempo.
19:31
[SPEAKER_00]: They'll keep that passing game on the sidelines with the big running game.
19:38
[SPEAKER_00]: And Central Catholic's defense is really not very good against the run.
19:41
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
19:43
[SPEAKER_00]: That they could even really put nine in the box and stop Western in the run game with his little as they are and so I'm taking taking a Western Panthers I won't be surprised for central Catholic wins, but Westerners at home.
19:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll take them
19:59
[SPEAKER_03]: I wouldn't be stunned if Central Catholic put up 50 and ran away with this game, but I have a feeling what I've seen last couple of weeks from Maddox Williams and Cation Messner and Eli and Winger that they're going to control the pace like Michelle said and when it's game.
20:14
[SPEAKER_03]: Lapella finishes their regular season after a disappointing loss with Jay County and Heritage Christians, so they're going to roll into the postseason.
20:23
[SPEAKER_03]: Kevin and I assume this one's going to be a sweet.
20:27
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I don't know.
20:27
[SPEAKER_02]: I think you said last week that they're running back.
20:30
[SPEAKER_02]: God hurt.
20:30
[SPEAKER_02]: And if you remember, I was the road that picked last week if you were hand cock to win and they did.
20:37
[SPEAKER_02]: However, Jake County, about a 500 football team, I'm going to take Lapelle to regain some winning momentum as they go into the last week next week.
20:48
[SPEAKER_03]: Y'all be surprised if it's not a 35 points of after I agree with both of you guys.
20:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm
20:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's going to be a bunch of mad bulldogs on Friday night and I really think they'll take a great big bite out of those Patriots, so give me a lapel.
21:15
[SPEAKER_03]: And our game number nine, co-local game of the week.
21:20
[SPEAKER_03]: It is for the Hoosier Heartland Conference Championship.
21:24
[SPEAKER_03]: It is 7 and 0 and 7th ranked Eastern against 5 and 2, 12th ranked Sheridan.
21:31
[SPEAKER_03]: Both teams unbeaten in the conference.
21:33
[SPEAKER_03]: The winner is at least partially a conference champion.
21:38
[SPEAKER_03]: The Saggering Rating Kevin has Eastern by 11, are you buying it?
21:44
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think it'll be 11, but I am buying Easter, and they've been shared in each of the last three seasons.
21:48
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't see that change in this year.
21:50
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me the comments.
21:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, great job this year by Coach Chesney and the shared in Blackhawks.
21:56
[SPEAKER_03]: They have had a real bounce back season.
21:59
[SPEAKER_03]: They're gonna be serious threat in the postseason.
22:03
[SPEAKER_03]: But I don't think they're gonna be much of a threat to Easter and on Friday night.
22:06
[SPEAKER_03]: Easter and going away.
22:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I agree.
22:09
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll take Easter and going away.
22:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I think they went up by maybe two to three touchdowns.
22:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I agree, Eastern's gonna, they're gonna roll in this.
22:17
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, Cooper Dold is the best quarterback of the Hoosier Conference.
22:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, Gibson Eagle is the best quarterback by far in the Hoosier Heartland Conference.
22:28
[SPEAKER_03]: And our final local game, try central back in the Hoosier Heartland Conference goes to Taylor, both teams are winless.
22:35
[SPEAKER_03]: Sager and rating says Taylor by 11, Kevin.
22:40
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, they don't only average 7 points against the win in my 11's quite a number, but I'll take that number if I'm a betting man, Taylor wins big.
22:51
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if it's going to be big.
22:52
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's going to be two teams that are fairly evenly matched in a lot of ways, but Taylor is going to win by a touchdown or two.
23:01
[SPEAKER_01]: I will take the Titans to beat the Trojans.
23:07
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, no offense, and I, I, please, try central fans do not take big offense to this, but try central scored six points all year in all of their games.
23:17
[SPEAKER_00]: And they're still a struggling program.
23:20
[SPEAKER_00]: A lot of their kids are still learning how to play the game of football.
23:24
[SPEAKER_00]: They've lost some of their better kids to injuries.
23:27
[SPEAKER_00]: during the season.
23:29
[SPEAKER_00]: It's Taylor's homecoming.
23:30
[SPEAKER_00]: I know I'm out here sitting out here at Taylor and I had a great big bonfire.
23:33
[SPEAKER_00]: It was going on behind the saw above, behind the football field for homecoming and they'll probably be fired up.
23:41
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Taylor's going to win and I think they'll win maybe three touchdowns or more.
23:49
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if Taylor is capable of scoring like 28 points,
23:58
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, we're going to take a quick break and come back with 10 best games in Central Indiana, starting with the Central Indiana Game of the Week, Carmel at Warren Central.
24:12
[SPEAKER_03]: Normally, in part two, we spend some time on the first game or two, and then we kind of do lightning round, pick up the rest of them, but there are so many competitive games in this one.
24:20
[SPEAKER_03]: We're probably going to go a little extra long tonight, and we started the central indie and a game of the week.
24:26
[SPEAKER_03]: It's the four and three Carmel Greyhound for a night.
24:30
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, the seven and a no war in Central Warriors ranked second, and according to the records, this doesn't look like much of a game, but it is, this is going to be a great game.
24:40
[SPEAKER_03]: Carmel, Warren Central Boat State Championship contenders.
24:44
[SPEAKER_03]: The Sagarin rating has Warren Central by five points.
24:49
[SPEAKER_03]: Warren Central has already wrapped up a share of the Mick.
24:53
[SPEAKER_03]: The Carmel can play spoiler while center grove and Lawrence North play each other for a share of the conference championship.
25:01
[SPEAKER_03]: If Carmel can pull off the upset, but of course, if Warren Central wins, they are the outright
25:09
[SPEAKER_03]: If you look at four or three versus seven and oh, you're thinking blow out, but this is not going to be.
25:15
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, if you look at last year, a combo beat him by 35 so a lot to make a potential this year, um, but having said that, I like one center.
25:25
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think, almost defenses is very good, and I think one central defense is just a little better, and they got plenty offense to win this football game.
25:34
[SPEAKER_03]: There's not a team in Indiana that Carmel can't be on a given night.
25:38
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think there's any doubt about that.
25:40
[SPEAKER_03]: They have got the talent.
25:41
[SPEAKER_03]: They haven't really seemed to come together as a team quite like we expected.
25:46
[SPEAKER_03]: But to be fair, they're two plays away from being six and one.
25:49
[SPEAKER_03]: And on a weekly basis, they are up there with the top five, 16s in the state.
25:57
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to take Warren Central.
25:58
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to take the cautious pick.
26:01
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that's the most likely outcome.
26:04
[SPEAKER_03]: This kind of has upset written all over it, but give me Warren central.
26:10
[SPEAKER_01]: I agree with the drag.
26:11
[SPEAKER_01]: I think that this does have upset written all over it, which is why it concerns me.
26:17
[SPEAKER_01]: But I'm still going to pick a get I'm still going to pick Warren central.
26:20
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll pick against Carmel this week.
26:21
[SPEAKER_01]: Warren central with Keyon Thomas has been really good.
26:24
[SPEAKER_01]: He was our player the week on the podcast this past week.
26:28
[SPEAKER_01]: I think he has another big week this week in week eight.
26:31
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think he leads into victory over the Carmel gray ants.
26:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I was one of maybe two or the only one to pick Warren central over Warren's north last week, only one because I believed in that Warren central's defense and key on Thomas's ability.
26:45
[SPEAKER_00]: And we all know I I'm usually picked caramel just because I like the the coalner family and those boys are pretty good, but I'm going with Warren central this week.
26:58
[SPEAKER_00]: But I will say this, it says something that Karmol is born in three and a night.
27:02
[SPEAKER_00]: It just tells you how good that conference is.
27:06
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think the Greyhounds could be a very dangerous team come sectional time.
27:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, but I'm going with more in central this week.
27:16
[SPEAKER_03]: Game number 12 could be for the conference championship and man.
27:21
[SPEAKER_03]: What a game.
27:22
[SPEAKER_03]: Center Grove is one six games in a row is six and one Lawrence Central just took its first loss after winning five in a row at war in central giving up 53 points.
27:33
[SPEAKER_03]: No doubt about Lawrence Norse offense, the only question is can they stop anybody and if you can't stop anybody, it's going to be really tough time stopping center Grove and what a game this one's going to be as well.
27:49
[SPEAKER_03]: Every week we keep hearing he should be back this week.
27:52
[SPEAKER_03]: We'll see if he comes back this week.
27:54
[SPEAKER_03]: Finally, and could that make a difference?
27:56
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know Kevin, the sagger rating has lords north by four and a half points.
28:01
[SPEAKER_02]: I just kind of looked at the history between these two teams.
28:03
[SPEAKER_02]: The last 10 years.
28:05
[SPEAKER_02]: It's been one sided.
28:06
[SPEAKER_02]: Senator goes one nine out of ten.
28:08
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me Senator over again in this one.
28:09
[SPEAKER_02]: It will be close, but they've got a better defense than they win.
28:15
[SPEAKER_03]: Can we continue?
28:16
[SPEAKER_03]: Cinegrow quarterback Oscar Sloan, one of the best junior quarterbacks in the state who was headed to Purdue was injured a couple of weeks ago, missed last week.
28:25
[SPEAKER_03]: They still won their backup quarterback Evan Wishmire is a sophomore and looks like a future star as well.
28:32
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think either one Sloan or Wishmire, this Cinegrow offense is too good for the Lawrence North defense.
28:39
[SPEAKER_03]: Lawrence North offense is probably better than Cinegrow's defense as well, but
28:44
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's a complete mismatch the other way.
28:46
[SPEAKER_03]: Give me Center Grove something like 35, 28, and this one.
28:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm completely okay as an IU fan with sales, not playing it all this year to be honest.
29:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I bet.
29:01
[SPEAKER_01]: And I don't mean that in a joking way of the series here, like he's probably going to play as a freshman next year in Bloomington.
29:07
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a five star first first five star in program history.
29:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm okay with him not playing at all this year to be honest with you, but I still think centergrove wins the game Friday, even though you said flown their quarterback out hurt, I think that does maybe cause some concern to pick against centergrove, I'm still going to pick the Trojans, I think it'll be a close game.
29:32
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it could be one of those games who ever has the ball last wins, but I think centergrove will have the ball last for some reason and they'll win the game.
29:41
[SPEAKER_02]: So what you're saying is I use already paying fails, not to play, huh?
29:46
[SPEAKER_01]: You can pay anyone these days.
29:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody was doing it back in the day, not to legal.
29:51
[SPEAKER_00]: If sales were to play, it could change it, but not because of what necessarily he brings to offense.
29:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to guess that Lawrence North defense is missing Munch on sales at safety.
30:05
[SPEAKER_00]: That kind of speed, that kind of skill and talent.
30:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, but I will say this, if he hasn't played so far, my guess is they've targeted the postseason.
30:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, if he's going to play it all, like you, Grant.
30:20
[SPEAKER_00]: If he's not 100%, I'm fine.
30:23
[SPEAKER_00]: If he doesn't play this year to risk a more serious injury, not knowing his status, knowing that Lawrence North can't hold leads because their defense can't hold leads.
30:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I will take center group as well.
30:37
[SPEAKER_03]: And we moved a game number 13 staying in the mick, another really good when it's three and four Lawrence Central at two and five Ben Davis, two teams below 500 that would beat almost every single team in the state.
30:49
[SPEAKER_03]: That's how tough that conference is.
30:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Lawrence Central coming off are really nice.
30:53
[SPEAKER_03]: Come from behind when over North Central where sophomore quarterback
31:01
[SPEAKER_03]: Both teams have sophomores is starting quarterbacks who are on the rise.
31:05
[SPEAKER_03]: Both teams struggling through this season, but brighter days are ahead.
31:10
[SPEAKER_03]: The saggerating Kevin has been Davis by eight points or you take it.
31:15
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, Phil, a little risky here.
31:17
[SPEAKER_02]: Ben Davis has lost four straight, Lawrence Memphis won two of their last three, but give me the giants at home.
31:24
[SPEAKER_03]: Ha, he, that was a curve ball.
31:27
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought for sure you were gonna say Lawrence Central after that.
31:32
[SPEAKER_03]: I picked them last week though.
31:34
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, you did.
31:36
[SPEAKER_03]: And I picked North Central and sophomore quarterback Jacobi, cutting him got 13 yards on a fourth and 12 on the final drive to win that game.
31:44
[SPEAKER_03]: So well done to him.
31:45
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think he is a player of the future.
31:48
[SPEAKER_03]: I really like their running back Ellis from a girl.
31:51
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm taking the upset, give me Lawrence Central.
31:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the giant stand tall on Friday and they win the game.
32:02
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll take Ben Davis in a close with me.
32:05
[SPEAKER_03]: I like that.
32:06
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I bet I've done 75% of the going rogue of the three others.
32:11
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think that mode's too well for you this week.
32:15
[SPEAKER_03]: I was in second place until this week, so you know, it's done pretty well for me.
32:23
[SPEAKER_03]: Game number 14 is two teams in the bottom of the Mick.
32:27
[SPEAKER_03]: But again, two pretty good teams, both have shown some promise this year.
32:31
[SPEAKER_03]: Unfortunately, Pike is still winless despite playing really tough against a lot of teams.
32:36
[SPEAKER_03]: Nor central, just one win.
32:39
[SPEAKER_03]: Again, Nor central coming off a rough, lost a Lawrence central in the final seconds on Friday.
32:45
[SPEAKER_03]: They're the favorites at home by eight points according to Sagarin Kevin, who are you taking?
32:50
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, Pike only scores about eight or nine points of games.
32:53
[SPEAKER_02]: So give me a, give me the home team, give me no or central in this one.
32:58
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, guys, North Central is gonna be near the top of this conference next year.
33:02
[SPEAKER_03]: Their quarterback Chase Grove is a junior.
33:04
[SPEAKER_03]: He said it to Iowa.
33:06
[SPEAKER_03]: They're running back to his John Avret is so good.
33:08
[SPEAKER_03]: He made one of the most spectacular runs.
33:10
[SPEAKER_03]: I've ever seen on Friday night to give North Central the lead.
33:14
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think they're gonna win this going away.
33:16
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think we're gonna start seeing some wins from that program starting next year.
33:23
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll pick a North Central.
33:28
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I will take North Central as well.
33:34
[SPEAKER_03]: Game number 15, same situation, different conference.
33:38
[SPEAKER_03]: We move to the HCC where it's Zion'sville at Avan.
33:42
[SPEAKER_03]: Zion'sville, five and two, Avan.
33:44
[SPEAKER_03]: Five and two, Avan has been the better team of late, but I'm not so sure they are this year, but Saggeran says Avan by two points, Kevin.
33:55
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it's the toss-up game if there is any for me.
33:58
[SPEAKER_02]: I really didn't know what you were.
33:59
[SPEAKER_02]: I was gonna go with this, but,
34:01
[SPEAKER_02]: Not knowing the circumstance of avon's good running back.
34:05
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm still going to take the Orioles at home in a close one.
34:09
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Avon probably dominates up front and wins this game, but don't be surprised if Zion's build does what it does has done all year and that is a win a close game, but I'm going to say Avon.
34:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the Avon Orioles fly away with a victory.
34:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it'll be a really great game that there's some great games this week and this is one that kind of gets lost in the shuffle of how great of a game it's going to be because of the other premiere matchups like Warren Central and Carmel and Center Grove and Lawrence North I think this will be a really really good football game though I'm taking Avan and all the Orioles are going to the cheese cake factory afterwards.
34:50
[SPEAKER_03]: That's right.
34:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this could end up being the closest game of a week.
34:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm sitting here, even listening to you guys.
35:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going back and forth on who I want to take.
35:03
[SPEAKER_00]: If we knew Paul Warfield's status, it would make it a lot easier.
35:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I would definitely take Abon.
35:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I know Abon's been pretty good at home the last two years.
35:12
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, but science will have it a really good year.
35:19
[SPEAKER_00]: Going rogue.
35:21
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, when I began the night, I thought I would take
35:25
[SPEAKER_00]: a month and a close one.
35:27
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm going to go rogue and I'm going to take designs, build by a field goal from an outstanding kicker.
35:34
[SPEAKER_03]: Taking Sam Black is a good idea.
35:36
[SPEAKER_03]: And he's one of them two games this year.
35:38
[SPEAKER_03]: So.
35:40
[SPEAKER_03]: That's it.
35:41
[SPEAKER_00]: Warfield's a hook comes out 100% and I find out that he's playing.
35:44
[SPEAKER_00]: He's really healthy.
35:45
[SPEAKER_00]: Then I will kick myself for my pick.
35:49
[SPEAKER_00]: But right now, I'm going to take
35:54
[SPEAKER_03]: By the way, guys, our next three games are three closest games according to Sagarin.
35:59
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's how close all these games are this week.
36:02
[SPEAKER_03]: Staying in the HCC Hamilton, South Eastern at Franklin Central.
36:07
[SPEAKER_03]: Both teams are three and four and Kevin.
36:09
[SPEAKER_03]: The Sagarin rating says Franklin's in trouble by 0.65 points.
36:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Here's another one.
36:15
[SPEAKER_02]: I went back and forth with all day long when I saw this.
36:18
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm gonna take the royals on the road in a close one.
36:24
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm gonna take the Royals on the road as well.
36:26
[SPEAKER_03]: I picked against Franklin Central last week and regretted it.
36:30
[SPEAKER_03]: Their defense came up big with a couple of big takeaways and touchdowns.
36:33
[SPEAKER_03]: And, but I don't think they're gonna do that to Hamilton South Eastern.
36:37
[SPEAKER_03]: I really like this Royals team and the direction they're headed.
36:41
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm taking Hamilton South Eastern by a touchdown.
36:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I will also be picking Hamilton South Eastern.
36:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Hamilton Southeastern is starting to put things together.
36:54
[SPEAKER_00]: They're young sophomore quarterback is getting experience.
36:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Their defense has been getting better.
37:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm taking the royals as well.
37:09
[SPEAKER_03]: Game number 17 is Yorktown at Pendleton Heights and a game that takes on a little different meaning this week.
37:17
[SPEAKER_03]: Sagrun rating says this is a one-point Pendleton favorite and Pendleton is six and one.
37:24
[SPEAKER_03]: Yorktown five and two coming off a big win last week but lost its best player over the weekend to a tragic shooting.
37:32
[SPEAKER_03]: So I guess this when we just have no idea what's gonna happen in it's
37:37
[SPEAKER_03]: I think we kind of felt that way going into it anyway.
37:39
[SPEAKER_03]: And now emotionally, if you go either way, right?
37:44
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I want to, what a tough week for those Yorktown athletes and community.
37:49
[SPEAKER_02]: And boy, I think they will rally together and play for him this week.
37:56
[SPEAKER_02]: But Pendleton Heights at home, I just think I like the rapians here.
38:01
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's going to be a close game but give me Pendleton Heights.
38:05
[SPEAKER_03]: I think pedal tonight is the slightly better team.
38:07
[SPEAKER_03]: I really like their quarterback, Grant Gray, who makes decisions when it's the ball in his hands and I really like their running game, give me a pedal to buy a touch to hide.
38:17
[SPEAKER_01]: I feel horrible for those kids there at Yorktown, you know, just what an emotional week it must be having to go through that and then still trying to prepare for a football game.
38:27
[SPEAKER_01]: And unfortunately, I think when you get in a situation like that, it either goes one of two ways.
38:33
[SPEAKER_01]: one you rally and then you go on a run and and you do well responding to to a tragic situation and and the other i think natural responses you don't respond to it well and unfortunately i don't i can't sit here and stay whether they will or they won't but i think it could play a factor and i'm gonna take penalty in this one i have seen teams
39:02
[SPEAKER_01]: and they don't respond well in the season, you know, if it happens in the middle of the season, then it can kind of derailed the season a little bit, but maybe your town will respond positively to it and come out inspired and play good football, but I still think Penal tonight's wins the game Friday, and I think they win it fairly comfortably.
39:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's gonna be the most somber.
39:28
[SPEAKER_00]: mood of any high school football game this this weekend um they're in the same conference I'm sure that a lot of those Pendleton kids knew the young man that's just the shame what happened um Pendleton Heights I think they're athletic I know their athletic director and their athletic department is really classy so I know they'll give them a little silence and they'll recognize
39:59
[SPEAKER_00]: give their condolences, that's why I, you know, emotional and be a funny thing, emotional is a funny thing.
40:09
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Yorktown might have been better off if these kids have been in school all week.
40:14
[SPEAKER_00]: It's their fall break.
40:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure the football coach and staff and the parents of the football players have tried to do some team things to help with those boys.
40:29
[SPEAKER_00]: But because it's been on fall break, you just, that's what you're gonna think about.
40:35
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's gonna be there every day.
40:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I guess they do get some reliefs.
40:42
[SPEAKER_00]: When they do play football, because grief and anger is part of grief, and they have somebody to go out and hit on Friday night and take out some of that anger.
40:54
[SPEAKER_00]: But I just, I'm gonna take Penalton Heights.
40:57
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I said, I think it's gonna be a very somber mood at that football game, at least early.
41:03
[SPEAKER_00]: My heart goes out to the Yorktown community and in some ways it goes, and it, to even like, Penalton Heights as well, and it, to give me Penalton Heights.
41:14
[SPEAKER_00]: It could be real comfortable.
41:15
[SPEAKER_00]: It could be a tight one.
41:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I just like the Arabians, especially since they're at home.
41:22
[SPEAKER_03]: tough situation.
41:23
[SPEAKER_03]: That's for sure.
41:28
[SPEAKER_03]: And we move to the three rivers conference to a team that Kevin just covered on Friday, have a bit of a resurgence.
41:35
[SPEAKER_03]: The Northfield Northman 5 and 2 go to Peru, face the 4 and 3 Peru Tigers.
41:42
[SPEAKER_03]: Kevin, the the Sagarin rating says Northfield by 1.4 points
41:52
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I came away really impressed with what I saw last week at Northfield.
41:57
[SPEAKER_02]: I told Grant a half time, I texted him.
41:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Northfield was losing, they were playing Rochester by told Grant.
42:03
[SPEAKER_02]: Northfield's going to win this football game, and they just completely dominated the second half.
42:07
[SPEAKER_02]: They completely did what they wanted to offensive against Rochester and absolutely shut them down.
42:12
[SPEAKER_02]: And this sophomore quarterback, Logan Holmes.
42:14
[SPEAKER_02]: made excellent decisions.
42:16
[SPEAKER_02]: He called his own number several times as they're leading Russia score two touchdowns in the second app.
42:21
[SPEAKER_02]: I like them on the road.
42:22
[SPEAKER_02]: Parus only playing their third home game.
42:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, by the way, they're O and two and they've given up an average of 62 points a game at home.
42:28
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me the Norseman on the road.
42:31
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not sure I agree at the reasoning because those games were against Logan's port and McConaughey, but I do like Northfield, and this one proves that very good, I think last week's result showed that they might be next year.
42:45
[SPEAKER_01]: I agree with both of you guys, he is just ecstatic where this team is compared to where it was a year ago and they've
42:54
[SPEAKER_01]: obviously in battle and been battling the bumps and bruises here.
42:58
[SPEAKER_01]: I think they went Friday night.
43:00
[SPEAKER_01]: That is going to be one of those grounded pound football games.
43:03
[SPEAKER_01]: One of those low scoring black and blue football games.
43:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Literally, Peru, you know, with the black color, Northfield
43:17
[SPEAKER_01]: I guess that that's kind of what that conference is a little bit physical teams physical players really great coaches two really good coaches going against each other Friday I really really like Northfield and this one I will take the Norse to go on the road and beat Peru on Friday night Kevin I was really glad that you went first and went before me tonight because I was going to listen
43:43
[SPEAKER_00]: to you your take as I knew you saw Northfield last week.
43:46
[SPEAKER_00]: So I and I was going to follow your pick and then so I'm taking Northfield.
43:53
[SPEAKER_02]: Hopefully I haven't led you astray.
43:54
[SPEAKER_02]: We'll see.
43:55
[SPEAKER_02]: It'll be a good football game.
43:59
[SPEAKER_03]: All these games this week, man.
44:00
[SPEAKER_03]: What a week.
44:03
[SPEAKER_03]: Game number 19 is the North Central Conference.
44:05
[SPEAKER_03]: The only team that has a chance to put a dent in next week's big showdown between Mutsi Central and Lafayette Jeff is Cocomo.
44:15
[SPEAKER_03]: Wild cats of one, three of their last four.
44:17
[SPEAKER_03]: Their only loss was to Jeff last week.
44:20
[SPEAKER_03]: And they actually jumped out ahead and that one before losing 40 to seven.
44:23
[SPEAKER_03]: Mutsi Central has one, three and a row.
44:27
[SPEAKER_03]: And they are five and two on the year.
44:29
[SPEAKER_03]: Pretty big favorite in this one.
44:34
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, yeah, I think this is an improving coke emotes team and must be central to those really put it together, especially defensively, but if you look at the teams, they'd be Mary and Richmond Anderson, not exactly juggernaut.
44:45
[SPEAKER_02]: However, I like Kyle Burst.
44:47
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to take the barricades on the road in a close one at Coca-Cola.
44:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Matt, I don't think it's going to be close.
44:53
[SPEAKER_03]: I think once he's central is going to win this win.
44:56
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm not going to say it'll be over by half time, but I think it'll be over by the start of the fourth quarter.
45:03
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking about 60 Centro to be a running clock in the second half.
45:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Monthly Central has the more experienced and better coach.
45:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely older.
45:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm taking the barricades.
45:16
[SPEAKER_03]: It is a monthly central sweep.
45:17
[SPEAKER_03]: We move to the mid state conference where six and one.
45:22
[SPEAKER_03]: Decatur Central ranked 11th in class six eight takes on five and two parry Meridian.
45:27
[SPEAKER_03]: Decatur Central is a 20 point favor in this one and can clinch.
45:31
[SPEAKER_03]: the mid-state conference championship with a win, but I just also want to shout out Perry Moridian on a great season, Coach Rob Pachett, former Taylor coach, has led the falcons to five wins after winning just two last year and I really like the job that he's doing there, Perry Moridian.
45:53
[SPEAKER_03]: But I'm guessing everyone's taken to cater central in this one, Kevin.
45:57
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I looked at one common opponent, uh, Decator Central be playing field by 15, uh, Perry Meridian lost by almost 40.
46:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, give me Decator Central.
46:08
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, this is a really good Decator Central team, the clear class of that conference.
46:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Decator Central not even close.
46:14
[SPEAKER_03]: I agree with Grant, Decator Central will blow out
46:21
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, finally we get a game or two at the end that we get some sweeps.
46:26
[SPEAKER_03]: Wanted to mention the games for conference championships there and again, Perry and Meridian.
46:31
[SPEAKER_03]: Great job.
46:31
[SPEAKER_03]: I rock patch it.
46:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Rob is done a great job.
46:36
[SPEAKER_00]: He did a great job at Taylor and he's a good football coach.
46:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Give him, you know, another year to it.
46:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, they'll be in the chase for the conference title every year.
46:51
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, for sure.
46:54
[SPEAKER_03]: Wow, guys, that was a great week of picks.
46:56
[SPEAKER_03]: A lot of different picks.
46:57
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's going to be a decisive week in my favor.
47:01
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going 20 and oh, and that means, of course, you guys are all going.
47:05
[SPEAKER_03]: I think I went road three times.
47:06
[SPEAKER_03]: So, um, that's going to be bad for you.
47:12
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll take my chance.
47:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll take mine too.
47:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm really care.
47:17
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't even count it at the end of the week any more.
47:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, when you're always bringing up the rear.
47:25
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you don't really have to look at it.
47:27
[SPEAKER_02]: I just thought I'd remind everybody I'm 34 and six the last two weeks.
47:32
[SPEAKER_03]: Thanks for that.
47:33
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
47:34
[SPEAKER_03]: Thanks for that.
47:36
[SPEAKER_03]: And some championships going to be determined this week, including the Hoosier Legends and the Encreate could win there.
47:41
[SPEAKER_03]: Jack Sorg, you didn't play last week, I don't know why, so that'll be interesting.
