Week 5 Previews & Predictions with Grant Shouse, Kevin Helfrich & Michelle Garmon (The High School Football Report, 3.40) · The Central Indiana Sports Report

0:08
[SPEAKER_02]: Welcome Central Indiana sports fans to this week's high school football report with your host Greg Mangel, the action sports network's Grant Shouse and Kevin Hellfrik and Captain Tribune and Ellie Colleter sports editor Michelle Garmin here to preview the best games around Central Indiana and make our predictions and
0:31
[SPEAKER_02]: Guys, last week, Michelle and I, 17 and three, Kevin went 15 and five grand, 14 and six, so Michelle's lead is now two over me.
0:42
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a one point lead over Kevin was, four point lead over Grant and it's early.
0:48
[SPEAKER_02]: It's still early, we're not even halfway.
0:52
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, still a lot of time to catch up.
0:56
[SPEAKER_02]: And of course, Kevin is the defending champion he kicked everybody's butt last year and took a lead this year and went from first second to third the last couple of weeks, but this week seems like a lot of easy ones are early, we're going to have a lot of sweeps and then the second half just gets really difficult with a lot of toss-ups, so here we go for week five and I asked this every week, can you guys believe this is freaking week five already?
1:23
[SPEAKER_02]: That seemed possible.
1:24
[SPEAKER_02]: It just is going so fast.
1:27
[SPEAKER_02]: I hate it.
1:28
[SPEAKER_02]: I wish it slowed down.
1:30
[SPEAKER_02]: I remember looking at the calendar early in the year and seeing caramel in the large north and go, oh, that'd be a good one to go to.
1:36
[SPEAKER_02]: And it seemed way off.
1:37
[SPEAKER_02]: And now we're here.
1:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I'd wish it slowed down too, just mainly because it winters around the corner.
1:45
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, winner's basketball season, so winner's my favorite season of the year, because I've realized the older I get, the faster it goes.
1:53
[SPEAKER_03]: It really does, it really does.
1:56
[SPEAKER_02]: As I just mentioned this week, the central Indiana game of the week, we will get to in the second half of our predictions, previews and predictions, and that is Carmel and Lawrence North, our local game of the week, I cheated a little bit this week, guys,
2:15
[SPEAKER_02]: Great game in the CIC or the who's your conference unless we wanted to go with Alexandria for the fourth week in a row and since they lost last week, we're not going to do that.
2:25
[SPEAKER_02]: So we went about five miles outside of our media area, the Pinnolton Heights where the fifth ranked Pinnolton Heights Arabians take on the second ranked and defending state champion new palestine dragons.
2:40
[SPEAKER_02]: The conference is on the line, but I think it's more than that.
2:43
[SPEAKER_02]: It's for Pendleton Heights, a game that kind of sets a standard for the program if they can win this.
2:52
[SPEAKER_00]: It's on paper.
2:54
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a great matchup.
2:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope that it lives up to the billing on paper, what happens on the field on Friday.
3:03
[SPEAKER_00]: And it would be a huge program victory for the Arabians.
3:10
[SPEAKER_03]: I agree with Michelle Gregg.
3:11
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that this is a kind of a tone setter for penalty heights that they can get the win.
3:19
[SPEAKER_03]: We've kind of talked in the last few weeks.
3:21
[SPEAKER_03]: We feel like new pal still a really good team and has a chance to win another state championship.
3:27
[SPEAKER_03]: But you just kind of feel like they're missing maybe one key piece here.
3:31
[SPEAKER_03]: And penalty heights is a good team, but I think new pals are going to be able to do some things to maybe exposed penalty heights in a way on Friday.
3:39
[SPEAKER_03]: So it'll be interesting to see what coach Ralph Scott going and I think it'll be a great game.
3:44
[SPEAKER_03]: It's it's well deserving as the local game of the week.
3:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, for Pendleton Heights, they can not let this game start like it did last year.
3:53
[SPEAKER_01]: New pal jumped all over them in the first quarter, and they can't let that happen this this week.
3:59
[SPEAKER_01]: They are at home.
4:00
[SPEAKER_01]: So maybe that plays a little bit to their advantage, but I don't think I don't think they're quite yet to the level of what new pal is.
4:08
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a feeling this is going to be a sweep.
4:10
[SPEAKER_02]: Anybody have the guts to take Pendleton.
4:14
[SPEAKER_03]: I'd like to and I still think they're a great team and when I look at the rest of their schedule, I don't see many of losses for them, but I'm still picking new pal here again.
4:23
[SPEAKER_03]: I know that we said that they're probably a piece or two away from really being another state championship team, but I just liked him in this game on the road at Penelton Heights giving new pal.
4:37
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I heard coming into this season that this is one of the probably worst new pal teams in a while, which means they'll probably go 11 and 2 and lose the semi-state or something like that.
4:49
[SPEAKER_02]: And they're getable.
4:52
[SPEAKER_02]: I think I think it's possible, Penalty Heights plays the perfect game they can win this, but I don't think there's any way you could possibly justify it taking Penalty.
5:01
[SPEAKER_00]: not me.
5:02
[SPEAKER_00]: And from the get go this match up, let us take a new pal.
5:05
[SPEAKER_00]: I will probably take them the rest of the season.
5:08
[SPEAKER_00]: There will might change a little bit depending on postseason matchups, but I definitely believe in new pal will win Friday night.
5:17
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think the game will be close for a while, but I don't know that it's going to be close throughout.
5:23
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I kind of think the same thing Kevin, but the sagger is only 7.52 different.
5:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, you can't always go with that.
5:31
[SPEAKER_01]: I've learned that the hard way is I relied on that one's coming my picks last week and it costs me so not going there.
5:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me the pedigree a new new pal on this one and the dominance they've had over panel and highs in the last 10 years, you know, one all 11 ball games so the new pal continues in that street.
5:52
[SPEAKER_02]: And the game that I'm going to be at on Friday night and I think maybe Michelle is going to be there as well is Madison Grant at Frank and it's what I'm calling the Rutherford bull of course Dave and will our Colts guys will is the principal at Madison Grant will is on Marty well staff at Frank and so it's the Rutherford bull is what I'm calling it my alma mater against the school I used to work at so I love both schools
6:18
[SPEAKER_02]: And it's the 4-0 Madison RGiles, the only undefeated team in the CIC overall.
6:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Of course, this is in while also in beaten in conference against winlists, Frank didn't look in for their first win and guys last week, I felt like Frank didn't kind of start a look like a real football team, particularly on defense until some mistakes late in the game, let it slip away.
6:40
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to take Madison Gran in this one.
6:42
[SPEAKER_03]: I agree with you, Franklin, starting to come along and look like a real football team here, but Madison Grant's been really good.
6:48
[SPEAKER_03]: I actually called this game with Kevin a couple of years ago at Franklin and it's just a monsoon of rain that night and just was
6:58
[SPEAKER_03]: just a down for kind of kind of miserable honestly.
7:02
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that's what Madison Graham will try to do to Frank and Friday make a miserable.
7:07
[SPEAKER_03]: You called the ruff the football.
7:09
[SPEAKER_03]: I'd like to pick Frank and Will's a good dude.
7:11
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to stick with his dad because he's always coming and taking care of us and getting us to drinks when we're, you know, the boys to Madison Grant volleyball.
7:19
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's it's been pretty fun, but yeah, I'll take Madison Graham on Friday over for
7:25
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm gonna have to go with Dave as well.
7:27
[SPEAKER_02]: I love my alma mater.
7:28
[SPEAKER_02]: I really believe Marty Wells is gonna get this thing turned around.
7:32
[SPEAKER_02]: I think he's got some football players on his team.
7:34
[SPEAKER_02]: I think this is gonna be a much more difficult game for Madison Grant's offense than the past results would suggest.
7:43
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think they're gonna pull away until the third quarter, but they're definitely gonna pull away and win this game.
7:49
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's a sweet period.
7:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going with the artiles.
7:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they'll win by a more than two or more scores.
8:00
[SPEAKER_00]: And on Friday night, I'm actually going to be at Panther Stadium here.
8:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I know what I'm going to watch a little girl's flag football.
8:06
[SPEAKER_00]: They're playing under the lights at 7.30.
8:08
[SPEAKER_00]: So that is where I'm going to be on Friday night.
8:11
[SPEAKER_02]: Outstanding.
8:12
[SPEAKER_02]: Can't wait to hear about that one.
8:13
[SPEAKER_02]: And Kevin, I think you're the one who's going to make it a sweep, right?
8:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm buying mass and I wasn't necessarily maybe after week one, but the convincing win they had over Oak Hill and just completely dominated it's going to be them and missed center wall.
8:27
[SPEAKER_01]: So the CIC down the road, it's going to be the Argos.
8:33
[SPEAKER_02]: And in probably the most interesting game of the night in the CIC, it's two and two Alexander at one in three Oak Hill, Alexander coming off the loss to Mrs. Sinner, behind a really nice two-way performance from Dylan Archer, and I think this is the first game that we've come across where we might not have a sweet, but I'm still expecting one grant.
8:57
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I'm picking out Alexandria here to start it off.
9:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Uh, I've learned picking the old alma mater is not work for me three times.
9:04
[SPEAKER_03]: It'll work for me once, but not, not this.
9:07
[SPEAKER_03]: So you this the first week I picked against Oak Hill, you know, Alexandria just looked like a complete team to me against Eastbroker couple weeks ago.
9:15
[SPEAKER_03]: I know they were shut out the second half last week against Mr. Senate wall, so they're obviously, I think a team that can respond, I think they will respond, I think they handle business against so kill, but Oak Hill's going to be prepared.
9:27
[SPEAKER_03]: They'll be ready to go.
9:28
[SPEAKER_03]: They'll throw some things at Alexander, they may not be expecting, but still, I'm taking the tigers in their dynamic offense to take care of business up and downtown me around Friday night.
9:41
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, my pick is Alexandria, but I would definitely put the tigers on up settler.
9:47
[SPEAKER_02]: I would not be stunned by an O'Kill win here, Michelle.
9:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh, no, but if that's downtown, mirror, Grant, that's an awful tiny, tiny, tiny town.
10:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, it is, it's just the dude boys is that lived there, so yeah, actually I'm going to take Alexandria.
10:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I like their balance their ability to throw and run against a kind of a I consider Oak Hill kind of one dimensional maybe one and a half dimensional.
10:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Alexander is more well rounded.
10:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I like their approach and they're going to be looking to get back on the winning track so give me the Tigers.
10:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, Oak Hill is all fenced as similar to what Eastbrook ran and Alexander's defense just absolutely controlled the Panthers all night long.
10:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Oak Hill probably only throw the bowl a bit better than Eastbrook probably just because they have a few more weapons I think it received or however, Alexander had roles probably not in the first half of the second half they really get it going in this one's not real close.
10:51
[SPEAKER_02]: Our next two games are one and three Blackford at three and one, Mrs. Sinowall, and one and three Elwood at two and two Eastbrook.
10:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Unless someone wants to speak up and take the Bruins of the Panthers, Kevin's calling the Mrs. Sinowall Blackford game on Friday for the Action Sports Network.
11:08
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm going to let Kevin talk a little bit about Eastbrook and where they are in the season and what to expect going forward.
11:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Kevin.
11:16
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it'll be my first look at Mr. Sinowal this year, you know, they've been story defense here the last several years and a defense came to life in the second half against Alexander your last week.
11:26
[SPEAKER_01]: They were trailies.
11:27
[SPEAKER_01]: It did by one and then they pitched a shutout and ran away with a 29 point victory uh, over the contending Alexander Tigers and Mr. Mawal, I think he's going to just keep it rolling, you know, you got one of those states best running backs and Levi Crandell, the junior.
11:41
[SPEAKER_01]: I think Jacob Schwartz is emerging as a quarterback position and I think this is just a game that they will just completely dominate from a start against Blackford and then as far as East Brook goes, this is the team that's been up and down all season long, they've played really well at times and then when they've turned the football over, they've gotten beat pretty strongly both times so if they can take care of the football, you know, the rest of season they're going to be competitive in every game from here on out, I do believe but shouldn't
12:13
[SPEAKER_03]: I completely agree with Kevin here.
12:14
[SPEAKER_03]: East brick looked really good last week.
12:16
[SPEAKER_03]: They scored early at often.
12:18
[SPEAKER_03]: They were at 21 points.
12:19
[SPEAKER_03]: Midway through the first quarter.
12:21
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just a dominant performance here.
12:24
[SPEAKER_03]: I researched the stat last week to Jeff Adams and it's never lost a blackboard.
12:29
[SPEAKER_03]: They have lost Elwood at one point when Elwood was kind of in its glory days of football.
12:35
[SPEAKER_03]: Those days of kind of, I hate to say, being long past,
12:41
[SPEAKER_03]: Not great the last few years, each work is never going to rebuild.
12:46
[SPEAKER_03]: They're going to reload, although if you were to consider this or rebuild, then maybe this year would be the year after graduating a lot.
12:55
[SPEAKER_03]: But they still returns to the young pieces.
12:57
[SPEAKER_03]: Jeff Adams has talked on our coach to show this week and said that he liked the lot of things, though, and Kelly did and actually Owen Kelly does some things, not all things, but some things better than what the previous quarterback
13:09
[SPEAKER_03]: Back when, you know, he started all four years at East Brook and became one of the program's all time greatest players.
13:16
[SPEAKER_03]: I think East Brook bounces back here, Jeff Adams and said that the last two weeks, Blackford and Elwood back to back kind of the biggest opponent they've had as themselves are taking the week to work on themselves as a coach or you're still looking at things to tweak you're still looking at things to coach up on your kids.
13:32
[SPEAKER_03]: those being penalties for Eastburg.
13:34
[SPEAKER_03]: They shot themselves in the foot all year long.
13:36
[SPEAKER_03]: Even in the two wins, they've had instant penalties.
13:39
[SPEAKER_03]: So I looked for them to play a cleaner game on Friday.
13:42
[SPEAKER_03]: They'll definitely get the win against Elwood.
13:45
[SPEAKER_02]: In our game number six is tipped in a bit in central.
13:48
[SPEAKER_02]: And we're going to do the same thing.
13:50
[SPEAKER_02]: Speak up now.
13:51
[SPEAKER_02]: If you want bitten central.
13:52
[SPEAKER_02]: If not, Michelle, your thoughts on the blue devils and where they are at this point.
13:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, just like Grant said about East Brook working on themselves, that's what the tip to blue devils are doing this week.
14:06
[SPEAKER_00]: They found some deficiencies, especially on the defensive side of the ball and on the kickoff.
14:12
[SPEAKER_00]: team in the last Hamilton Heights last Friday.
14:16
[SPEAKER_00]: So they're focused on themselves.
14:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I think their big priority is finding a defense that they feel comfortable with, that the kids feel comfortable with, that they can just continue to get better at weekend and week out.
14:31
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be a long road trip, but it's kind of game that when you have some young kids, a big win, you go on the road, you get a big win, kind of puts a little pet back in your steps.
14:43
[SPEAKER_00]: That's why I expect from the Blue Devils.
14:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I expect them to go and roll on Friday night.
14:47
[SPEAKER_00]: And we'll hopefully show some improvement on the defensive side of the ball.
14:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Problem is, I'm not sure a bit central.
14:53
[SPEAKER_00]: It's good enough offensively to allow you to see how much improvement has been made if any.
15:01
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it's a good point.
15:03
[SPEAKER_02]: Game number seven, staying in the Hoosier Conference for a couple of more games.
15:06
[SPEAKER_02]: We got one and three Western against one and three Hamilton Heights.
15:10
[SPEAKER_02]: Both coming off may be unexpected wins last week.
15:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Western beating West Lafayette Hamilton Heights winning at Tippedon.
15:19
[SPEAKER_02]: So this one looks like it could be an interesting one, although the Sagerin rating has Hamilton Heights by 24 and they're certainly the favorite.
15:27
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think it's one of those games.
15:29
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a definite.
15:30
[SPEAKER_03]: So I like Hamilton Heights in this game.
15:33
[SPEAKER_03]: You mentioned the unexpected win from both teams last week.
15:37
[SPEAKER_03]: Honestly, I really didn't look at the results.
15:41
[SPEAKER_03]: from our picks last week.
15:42
[SPEAKER_03]: So when you said it the start, I was 14 and six last week.
15:45
[SPEAKER_03]: That's how I found out honestly and I found out Western beat West Lafayette just because you just set up, which is surprising.
15:52
[SPEAKER_03]: But I knew about the Hamilton Heights Tipton game.
15:54
[SPEAKER_03]: That was definitely a shocker.
15:56
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't like a lot of people saw that coming.
15:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Nonetheless, I like Hamilton Heights to build off of that and get the win.
16:02
[SPEAKER_03]: I think they're a really good team.
16:03
[SPEAKER_03]: I just think that the gauntlet or their schedule, they've kind of run into here and give me the Huskies to beat the Panthers on Friday night.
16:12
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I agree.
16:13
[SPEAKER_02]: I think this Hamiltonide steam is way better than it's one and three record and Western is a one and three team.
16:22
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, Hamiltonide's is definitely going to be confident following the win over Tip the last week.
16:27
[SPEAKER_00]: I know it's kind of a side relief for Caleb Small returning to his alma mater and wanting to be successful there for his dream job and getting that first win.
16:39
[SPEAKER_00]: can be huge.
16:39
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think it was huge for the Huskies.
16:41
[SPEAKER_00]: And I look for Hamilton Heights to win now.
16:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's going to be a couple touchdowns.
16:48
[SPEAKER_00]: Hamilton Heights has a weapon.
16:49
[SPEAKER_00]: It's their kicker.
16:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Senior Kigan, Kevin All, and I'm telling you what, he can bootfield goals from over 40.
16:57
[SPEAKER_00]: His kickoff's land in the in zone.
16:59
[SPEAKER_00]: He does touch backs, which means Western's not going
17:07
[SPEAKER_00]: And they're going to have to make them drive the length of the field.
17:10
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, heights as defense is not maybe a scout, but they, I'm going to guess they're quicker and they really do a nice job defensively.
17:19
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought heights had a great game plan.
17:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I like the quarterback, the sophomore wittaker is doing for 300 yards last week.
17:25
[SPEAKER_01]: It gets tipped and I think he continues the big night against the Western defense.
17:28
[SPEAKER_01]: It's pretty porous.
17:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me the Hamilton Heights in this one.
17:33
[SPEAKER_02]: It is a Hamilton Heights sweep.
17:36
[SPEAKER_02]: And in the final game in the Hoosier Conference, expect another sweep, it is 4-0 Logan's port.
17:41
[SPEAKER_02]: Somehow, still unranked at O and 4 West Lafayette, surprisingly, O and 4 last year.
17:48
[SPEAKER_02]: This game was a 44, 43 over time win by Logan's port.
17:52
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, the West Lafayette led 20 to nothing in 36 to 26 late in the game, but the berries found a way to win.
18:00
[SPEAKER_02]: With eight points in the second overtime session.
18:04
[SPEAKER_02]: probably going to be Logan sport, but definitely not a sure thing like the records might indicate.
18:10
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me the berries, a Logan sport here, Greg.
18:14
[SPEAKER_03]: Carson Jackson, they're running back 358 yards, seven touchdowns defensively 53 tackles, seven of them for a loss at his inside linebackers spot.
18:24
[SPEAKER_03]: Troy Hudson's in a second year, 12 and four with Logan's fort.
18:27
[SPEAKER_03]: It's traditionally been a good football program.
18:30
[SPEAKER_03]: So as West Lafayette, obviously, they produced George Carl off this, who went on to Purdue now starts with the Kansas City Chiefs.
18:37
[SPEAKER_02]: West Lafayette's been good at football since 1930, man.
18:41
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they've been around for a long time.
18:43
[SPEAKER_03]: This just won those years.
18:44
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, you run into these years when you've got this kind of program.
18:48
[SPEAKER_03]: You just kind of hit a wall unless you're
18:50
[SPEAKER_03]: Rebuild or your reload not rebuilding, uh, Logan sport is is kind of reloading here.
18:56
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to pick them to get a win over the Red Devils of West Lafayette on Friday.
19:00
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Michelle and I talked about it on the recap this week how West Lafayette just a couple of weeks ago almost beat Lebanon.
19:07
[SPEAKER_02]: So you kind of stack that up and yeah, that would mean there are almost as good as Pinnonton Heights who.
19:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Colonel tonight's beat Lebanon and over time, but it just doesn't add up when you lose to Western a couple of weeks later.
19:20
[SPEAKER_02]: And that's kind of been the issue with West Lafayette the last couple of weeks.
19:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Logan sports going to dominate because they dominate up front and they got three good running backs.
19:29
[SPEAKER_02]: They can stop the pass as we saw last week against Central Catholic.
19:32
[SPEAKER_02]: They could definitely stop the run.
19:34
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know how they're not ranked.
19:36
[SPEAKER_02]: They are a really good football team.
19:38
[SPEAKER_02]: It's Logan's
19:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I look for this to be a game that West Lafayette gets up for, but Greg as we talked and I've said this other times this year too West Lafayette's not the powerhouse they once were and it's just because they're not consistent week in and week out and I think their defense isn't as good as it has been in years past.
20:02
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm taking the berries.
20:04
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Western definitely ran all over.
20:08
[SPEAKER_01]: And I like Logan's for to stay undefeated here.
20:10
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's closer maybe than in some thing.
20:14
[SPEAKER_01]: I think at least it's going to be close for half but uh, Logan's work pulls away late.
20:20
[SPEAKER_02]: And we move to the Hoosier Heartland for a couple of good games.
20:23
[SPEAKER_02]: Two games between unbeaten teams in the conference.
20:27
[SPEAKER_02]: So we start 4-0 Eastern at 3 and 1 Carroll.
20:32
[SPEAKER_02]: the comments ranked sixth into a the cougars ranked 15th in class a grant.
20:39
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Eastern in their last five games against carols two and three.
20:44
[SPEAKER_03]: Carols kind of had their number the last few years.
20:47
[SPEAKER_03]: And they played some great games over the last few years.
20:49
[SPEAKER_03]: Eastern beat them last year, 28, 27.
20:52
[SPEAKER_03]: The year before that, Carol got them, 28, 13.
20:56
[SPEAKER_03]: And they blew him out in 2023, 47 to 7.
20:59
[SPEAKER_03]: So again, even the year that Eastern won their first ever sectional Carroll beat them in the regular season, Eastern did lose again until the regional up at Adam Central later on in November.
21:11
[SPEAKER_03]: So they got on a roll up that seems like after the Carroll game is really when Eastern's hit their stride and Carroll's kind of that wake up call that they get in the middle of the season.
21:22
[SPEAKER_03]: And again, where Carol's had their number.
21:24
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think they have their number this year.
21:25
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to take the comments to shoot out of the sky and beat the Carol Cougars over in Carol County.
21:36
[SPEAKER_02]: agree.
21:36
[SPEAKER_02]: My expectation for this game is that Eastern wins by 28 points, but I wouldn't be stunned if this Carol defense has a formula to stop Eastern a little bit and makes this a really good game if not an upset because we keep seeing it over and over.
21:51
[SPEAKER_02]: There's some kind of matchup there for Carol.
21:54
[SPEAKER_02]: Also, Carol's always good, but I'm taking Eastern Michelle.
22:00
[SPEAKER_00]: I like Josh Edwards.
22:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I like what he's doing at Eastern.
22:02
[SPEAKER_00]: He's been wonderful.
22:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I take the comments to to win.
22:06
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not going to, I almost said straight past.
22:08
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's going to be a closer game than what Eastern's had the last couple weeks, but I just think Josh's going to, it's done a wonderful job there.
22:16
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just think they have more weapons than what Carol does this year.
22:21
[SPEAKER_00]: So give me the comments.
22:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I part of me wanted to to pick Carol in the upset, but I looked at the only common opponent that I think these two teams have had this year and I think it was Delphi and Eastern absolutely destroyed Delphi, not that Carol didn't shut him out, but it was way less of a blowout.
22:40
[SPEAKER_01]: So give me give me the comments on the road.
22:43
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Gibson Eagle is a really good quarterback, but his receivers really help him
22:55
[SPEAKER_02]: really exceptional receiving pair for class 2A.
23:02
[SPEAKER_02]: And in the Hoosier Heartland 2 and 2 Sheridan at 3 and 1 Clinton Prairie.
23:08
[SPEAKER_02]: As we mentioned on this week's recap Sheridan's only losses to McConnell and Alexander and they hung with both of those teams.
23:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Clinton Prairie coming off a 56-26 loss to Rochester, their first loss of the season.
23:19
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a
23:22
[SPEAKER_02]: rivalry that goes way way back at a time when both programs were state power houses and they're both really good teams in this conference both probably considered outside contenders should be a pretty good game grant.
23:37
[SPEAKER_03]: I think so you know these are two teams that have kind of been top of that conference for a long time now.
23:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Sheridan obviously the the pedigree that they've had and the
23:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Jake Chesney in a second year here.
23:55
[SPEAKER_03]: I like Sheridan in this game, but it's one of those.
23:59
[SPEAKER_03]: I wouldn't be at all shocked if Clinton prairie won.
24:02
[SPEAKER_03]: You know, I said a few weeks ago, I'm gonna take Clinton prairie to poke their head up and win.
24:06
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm gonna take the blackhawks to fly away with this one.
24:10
[SPEAKER_02]: I like it.
24:11
[SPEAKER_02]: Again, my expectation for this game is shared in easy.
24:14
[SPEAKER_02]: I think having watched them both play last week, Sheridan has a lot more teen speed.
24:20
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think it's going to be particularly close.
24:22
[SPEAKER_02]: But again, Clinton Parry is the kind of program that they devise a scheme to keep themselves there with Sheridan.
24:28
[SPEAKER_02]: Don't be shocked with an upset, but I'll
24:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to take Sheridan to I think they found their footing, and I think that Alexander is a better team than Clinton Parade, but their offense is probably similar because Parade does like to throw.
24:47
[SPEAKER_00]: They like to run.
24:48
[SPEAKER_00]: So Sheridan's already seen that against a better opponent, per se, so I'm taking the black ox.
24:55
[SPEAKER_02]: Kevin, make it official, 10 games, 10 sweeps.
24:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, Sheridan, for me and this one, I don't know, then it'll be too close.
25:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it's at least
25:04
[SPEAKER_01]: two to three touchdowns.
25:05
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think Brody Hagen has a big game throwing the football.
25:10
[SPEAKER_02]: I tell you what, stay tuned.
25:11
[SPEAKER_02]: This is the second part of this podcast.
25:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Zero percent chance that we all pick the same games on the second half.
25:18
[SPEAKER_02]: At least six of them are what I would consider toss ups.
25:22
[SPEAKER_02]: So, please stay around.
25:29
[SPEAKER_02]: And now for part two, where we move to the Mick, the HCC, and the best games around Central Indiana, the games that mean the most, we have a lot of good ones this week, starting with the Central Indiana Game of the Week.
25:42
[SPEAKER_02]: Two and two, Carl at three and one, Lawrence North, on Shenzales has been out for a couple of weeks, expected to be back this week, dealing with some backspasms.
25:52
[SPEAKER_02]: The word was, he probably could have played last week if needed, he was not needed.
25:56
[SPEAKER_02]: The team is good enough without him, also Lawrence North has a now two-headed monster in the backfield.
26:03
[SPEAKER_02]: Mario Baker has joined Zaymore on their both-kind of getting even carries, making Lawrence North even more dangerous than they already were.
26:13
[SPEAKER_02]: Of course, Caramel taking a couple of early losses, but everyone's expects them to be a top five team.
26:19
[SPEAKER_02]: The Greyhound's ranked eighth, the Wildcats ranked seventh.
26:23
[SPEAKER_02]: Grant, this is gonna be a good one.
26:25
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, this is gonna be a good one, man.
26:28
[SPEAKER_03]: This is the game to be at in the Indianapolis area Friday night.
26:32
[SPEAKER_03]: The game being at Lawrence North really makes who want to pick the Wildcats, but I don't know what it is.
26:38
[SPEAKER_03]: I like Caramel to go on the road here
26:42
[SPEAKER_03]: You do mention Monchon sales expected to expect it to be back after a short-term injury.
26:48
[SPEAKER_03]: ZAYMORE is a great running back for them.
26:50
[SPEAKER_03]: But then when you look there at Carmel, you got Michael Lewis, 531 rushing yard six touchdowns.
26:56
[SPEAKER_03]: Conner Harris, the junior wide receiver, 225 receiving yards, four touchdowns.
27:02
[SPEAKER_03]: And defensively, Armand sure you'll do your linebacker.
27:05
[SPEAKER_03]: 19 tackles six out of a tackle for a loss.
27:08
[SPEAKER_03]: Give me the hounds to go down and beat the wild cats on Friday night.
27:12
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it'll be a competitive game could be the game of the night.
27:16
[SPEAKER_03]: I like caramel and this one.
27:19
[SPEAKER_02]: Guys, Lawrence North is one half away from being the number one team in the state.
27:23
[SPEAKER_02]: They were head of Brownsburg, a half time bill for get.
27:26
[SPEAKER_02]: That's how good they are and they've been rolling over some pretty good teams without the nation's best wide receiver.
27:33
[SPEAKER_02]: while also breaking in a new running back to share the back field with Zaymore and he is a really good one.
27:40
[SPEAKER_02]: I think Lawrence North wins this game going away.
27:42
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me Lawrence North by ten points Michelle.
27:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, that's it.
27:47
[SPEAKER_00]: That's a good see to get to call their gray guy.
27:51
[SPEAKER_00]: I won't be surprised for Lawrence North wins, but I don't think it's going to be going away.
27:55
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Carmel is pretty good Kevin Wright is a really good coach.
28:01
[SPEAKER_00]: still have been prepared.
28:02
[SPEAKER_00]: I know Carmel's lost why so close game to center grove and then close game to on the road.
28:09
[SPEAKER_00]: And we'll be surprised once north winds, but I'm not going to go against Carmel and I'm interested to see that game a little bit.
28:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll have to go see if I can catch some of it to see if how the Drake Colner matches up against Monchon sales because Drake Clay safety to see if they have any battles.
28:27
[SPEAKER_00]: So, but I will take Carmel
28:32
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, it took us two picks into the second half of the podcast to have a difference in the picks.
28:37
[SPEAKER_02]: It's going to be a lot different this part of it.
28:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I picked Carmel in there two losses this year and I learned my lesson.
28:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not picking the gray house.
28:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going with lower store too much offense, the gray house defense is not being good.
28:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Really all your long and lower stores has no problem scoring.
28:56
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think like Greg said, I think this one may be 10 or more.
29:01
[SPEAKER_02]: well split down the middle on that one.
29:03
[SPEAKER_02]: I love it.
29:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Staying in the Mick, it is two and two Ben Davis against four and a war in central the Giants ranked 13th.
29:10
[SPEAKER_02]: This is the kind of game where you know who the favorite is going in, but if war in central doesn't play well, it could definitely go either way.
29:19
[SPEAKER_03]: There's no doubt this is two classic teams in that conference.
29:24
[SPEAKER_03]: This has been a pretty
29:26
[SPEAKER_03]: blitz theories.
29:27
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, not split orange central leads 68 30 or 60 to 38 and two.
29:32
[SPEAKER_03]: So they tied twice, which is crazy.
29:36
[SPEAKER_03]: But Warren central's been in a established program.
29:39
[SPEAKER_03]: So has been Davis been Davis's a great coaches, great players come through.
29:43
[SPEAKER_03]: So is Warren central.
29:44
[SPEAKER_03]: This is the battle of the East side versus the West side.
29:48
[SPEAKER_03]: give me the east side Warren central to go over and knock off the giants.
29:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Well, the games that Warren central give me Warren central to protect their home field against Ben Davis on Friday night.
29:58
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll take the Warriors.
30:00
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I was about to say last time, I would probably have Lawrence North ranked third in the state.
30:05
[SPEAKER_02]: In my poll, if I had a six a poll, but I actually probably have them fourth because Warren
30:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I think you weren't central.
30:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they will roll on Friday night.
30:18
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think they're playing very well right now.
30:21
[SPEAKER_00]: And go warn central.
30:26
[SPEAKER_01]: Make it a sweep.
30:27
[SPEAKER_01]: I like warn central.
30:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I think they win this game.
30:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Being at home is the difference.
30:36
[SPEAKER_02]: and our final game in the making this one is one I've been talking about all year that I'm not sure Lauren Central's not the worst team in the mix uh... just because pikin and north central looks so much better than the past so i'm gonna give my chance here to uh... put my money where my mouth is grant boy this is uh... kind of the two-based and dollars of this conference here these are still too pretty good teams yes they are
31:04
[SPEAKER_03]: Pike and Lawrence Central man this is when you're picking you know a team as a combined one win between them now they're combined one and seven between both of them Carter cross the quarterback for Pike it's also got the Andre Mary weather running back hundred and forty yards on the ground junior line-backer Khalil Oliver twenty three tackles
31:28
[SPEAKER_03]: When you look at Lawrence central here, uh, uh, Ellis McGraw junior running back four hundred eight yards six touchdowns came Von 138 receiving yards and Jackson owns 23 tackles six tackles for lost really impressive at this juncture in the season.
31:45
[SPEAKER_03]: Boy, give me Lawrence central to come out on top.
31:48
[SPEAKER_03]: I'd really like to pick five year, but I got to get feeling about the bears being at home on Friday and I give me Lawrence central.
31:58
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm taking Pike.
31:58
[SPEAKER_02]: I love the direction of this program.
32:00
[SPEAKER_02]: I like this team.
32:02
[SPEAKER_02]: I know they're Owen for, but they're fun to watch.
32:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Both of their quarterbacks are fun to watch Carter Cross and Malachi Chapman.
32:10
[SPEAKER_02]: They both can throw.
32:11
[SPEAKER_02]: They both can run.
32:13
[SPEAKER_02]: They got athletes all over the field.
32:15
[SPEAKER_02]: They're a little smaller.
32:15
[SPEAKER_02]: The most teams in their conference.
32:17
[SPEAKER_02]: So they have it been as competitive upfront, but their skill guys can be as competitive as anybody.
32:23
[SPEAKER_02]: And I like Pike to win this one.
32:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Great.
32:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I'm actually going to agree with you.
32:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I think podcasts maybe this year they have maybe a team more athletes.
32:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they're looking to get that first win.
32:37
[SPEAKER_00]: They've been competitive in some games.
32:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they get that first win on Friday night.
32:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, does anybody have a coin?
32:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm ready to flip it and see you.
32:47
[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
32:48
[SPEAKER_01]: I kind of hate to do this because Grant's the one at the bottom of the barrel here, but I think I'm going to side with Grant, going to take Lawrence Central.
32:55
[SPEAKER_01]: I hope he's the lucky charm this week.
32:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Hmm, interesting.
33:01
[SPEAKER_02]: That's going to be a big one where all I'm going to be paying attention to on Friday night.
33:06
[SPEAKER_02]: And our final game in the mix should not be as competitive.
33:10
[SPEAKER_02]: It's one and three north central against three and one.
33:12
[SPEAKER_02]: Senator Grove looks like a couple of division one quarterbacks.
33:17
[SPEAKER_02]: Of course, the well known quarterback is center groves, Oscar Sloan, and this week, north central junior quarterback Chase Grove committed to Iowa.
33:26
[SPEAKER_02]: So two of the states, best quarterbacks going head to head, but I think Senator Grove is one of the states best.
33:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Nor central still trying to get their grant.
33:36
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, no doubt, center growth here is the easy pick, Oscars loan, 5183 passing yard six touchdowns, Chase Grove going to Iowa, you know, we sent that our tech thread and Michelle had an extra interesting point here, you know, you get a quarterback going to Iowa to try and develop usually.
33:53
[SPEAKER_03]: You don't see that a whole lot, especially out of Indiana.
33:56
[SPEAKER_03]: So Kirk's parents, the big 10s, but Osman, let's see something out of that kid at North Central.
34:05
[SPEAKER_03]: Running back wide receiver 500 and eight total yards of offense, David Brooks 300 11 receiving yards for touchdowns and senior linebacker Colton albatar Connor 41 tackles on season.
34:19
[SPEAKER_03]: All that said, I still like center grove in this game.
34:23
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Norse Central beat them probably be one of the upsets of the years that our grove at home has been really good over the years.
34:29
[SPEAKER_03]: Eric Moore is one of the great coaches of all time.
34:32
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll take the Trojans to knock off the Panthers at Norse Central.
34:37
[SPEAKER_02]: Yep, center groveeasy.
34:41
[SPEAKER_00]: A great, great, center groveeasy.
34:44
[SPEAKER_02]: Center grove.
34:50
[SPEAKER_02]: And we've moved to the Hoosier Crossroads Conference where
34:53
[SPEAKER_02]: an interesting game has the two and two noblesville millers against the three and one Zion'sville Eagles both teams have looked pretty good against some top ranked competition
35:04
[SPEAKER_02]: I think this one might be a pretty good one.
35:08
[SPEAKER_02]: The Sagger and Rating has Zion'sville by 12, and I think we're probably gonna have a sweep here, but you never know.
35:15
[SPEAKER_02]: I think noblesville might be a little bigger up front, so might cause some trouble for Zion'sville, but we also know that Zion's will has the best kicker in Indiana, right?
35:27
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, it's crazy.
35:27
[SPEAKER_03]: They've got the best kicker in Indiana in this backup is Adam Venetary son.
35:32
[SPEAKER_03]: That's right, though.
35:33
[SPEAKER_03]: Must go to show how good that kicker is, or at scienceville.
35:36
[SPEAKER_03]: I like scienceville in this game at home.
35:39
[SPEAKER_03]: They've got home field advantage.
35:40
[SPEAKER_03]: Give me the Eagles.
35:42
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
35:44
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought Zion'sville is impressive.
35:46
[SPEAKER_02]: All four games last week.
35:48
[SPEAKER_02]: It really took a good effort for them to pull away and beat Franklin Central.
35:53
[SPEAKER_02]: I think noblesville is going to give them some trouble.
35:55
[SPEAKER_02]: Noblesville's bigger noblesville has some really good athletes.
35:59
[SPEAKER_02]: But Zion'sville has the best football players on the field and this went including the great Theo shot who can go out and catch passes for you at tie it in and when the game's on the line just turned into a running back and
36:12
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me Zion's will.
36:15
[SPEAKER_00]: Go, Jed, Tennessee.
36:16
[SPEAKER_00]: He's the son of Luke, Tennessee, and Jimmy, bomb, gardener, fantasy, both, Tipton, high school graduates.
36:23
[SPEAKER_00]: He's the third fantasy boy to play for the Eagles.
36:27
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a part of that good junior class break.
36:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I am taking the Zion's Bill Eagles.
36:33
[SPEAKER_00]: I agree with that.
36:35
[SPEAKER_00]: When you have a great
36:37
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, that's a huge weapon in close games.
36:40
[SPEAKER_00]: This could be close, but I think maybe signs will not buy a deal.
36:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, maybe buy a touchdown or 10 points.
36:47
[SPEAKER_00]: So go Eagles.
36:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Game wasn't close last year.
36:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know that it's all that close list this year.
36:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's make it a sweep.
36:54
[SPEAKER_01]: No signs.
36:57
[SPEAKER_02]: And we stay in the Hoosier Crossroads where it's three and one, Avon against one and three Franklin Central, Avon coming off.
37:04
[SPEAKER_02]: It just absolute man handling by Brownsburg.
37:08
[SPEAKER_02]: That game was 49 to nothing on one point, 42 to nothing at the half.
37:13
[SPEAKER_02]: I knew Brownsburg was going to win that game, but I did not see that coming.
37:16
[SPEAKER_02]: I thought it was going to be a one touchdown game that came down to the very end, and it was over by the time it began, and to make things worse, they're star running back, Andre Warfield was injured.
37:27
[SPEAKER_02]: There was a report by Kyle Ned and Rip that he needed surgery and was out for the season.
37:31
[SPEAKER_02]: The family tweeted that that was not the case.
37:34
[SPEAKER_02]: So now we don't know what the complete situation is, but I seriously doubt that.
37:39
[SPEAKER_02]: It'll be playing against Franklin Central, which really throws this game up in the air.
37:44
[SPEAKER_03]: Warfield going down for them definitely is significant injury for Avan.
37:48
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know that it definitely throws the game in jeopardy and makes this a toss-up by still like Avan comfortably in this one over the flashes.
37:58
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I'm tempted to go Franklin Central because that loss could be really demoralizing for that team and the loss to Brownsburg and the loss of their running back.
38:08
[SPEAKER_02]: I have a feeling though at Avon, you're probably going to be able to throw in another capable running back and give me the Orioles by a slim margin.
38:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, here's the thing.
38:22
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't know, does Avon change its game plan a little bit, differently, who the backup is, does he have a different style?
38:30
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's a little hard for Franklin Central to probably
38:34
[SPEAKER_00]: get a real good feel or maybe a real good read on what Avon might do early.
38:39
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think this game will be I think it will be close at least in the first half.
38:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Really good teams.
38:45
[SPEAKER_00]: It's next man standing.
38:46
[SPEAKER_00]: And if Avon wants to be a really good team, even though they didn't look like one last week, but I am sure with Warfield going down that takes a lot of air out of your sales.
38:57
[SPEAKER_00]: But if Avon wants to be considered a good team and a contender for a sectional championship, then somebody's got to step up.
39:05
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they do.
39:06
[SPEAKER_00]: I will take the Orioles.
39:11
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I think Avon plays in his fired football with their teammate out.
39:15
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not gonna win this game.
39:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I think rather handily, give me Avon.
39:23
[SPEAKER_02]: And we moved from the HCC to the HCC, the who's your heritage, where it's two and two Mount Vernon against one and three delta two programs that struggle a little here early in the season, but they're in both in good hands, Mike Kirchner, back at Mount Vernon, Billy Lynch, now the head coach at Delta, and this one should be a good one.
39:49
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I agree with the sagging here.
39:51
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to take Mount Vernon.
39:52
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it'll be a good game.
39:55
[SPEAKER_03]: Mount Vernon's a team that's kind of struggled with my characters.
39:58
[SPEAKER_03]: A good coach.
39:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Give me the marauders in Mount Vernon to come away.
40:02
[SPEAKER_03]: Victoria's ever delta.
40:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I didn't like the way Delta was playing until last week.
40:07
[SPEAKER_02]: I liked the way they played against Yorktown.
40:09
[SPEAKER_02]: They hung with them for most of the game.
40:11
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm going to take the Eagles.
40:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I know the marauders took a step back.
40:18
[SPEAKER_00]: That was to new pal, though, and I don't think those kids at beaten new pal.
40:23
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they'll look to get back on the winning track.
40:25
[SPEAKER_00]: It will be interesting.
40:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Delta probably feels a little bit more confident coming off their loss, maybe than Mount Vernon.
40:31
[SPEAKER_00]: But I am going to take Mount Vernon.
40:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm with Greg here.
40:38
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to take Delta at home in a very close one.
40:42
[SPEAKER_02]: Ooh, and even split, I like it.
40:47
[SPEAKER_02]: staying in the who's your heritage, but going out of conference is three and one, Yorktown against three and one Columbus North the Tigers ranked ninth in class four A and these two programs have never played each other.
41:02
[SPEAKER_02]: Yorktown a really good four A program, but Columbus North is a competent six A program.
41:07
[SPEAKER_02]: Sagarin rating says Yorktown by five, I don't know, Grant.
41:11
[SPEAKER_02]: This one seems like a toss up to me.
41:14
[SPEAKER_03]: I've been kind of buying what you've been selling about Yorktown early on in the season.
41:19
[SPEAKER_03]: Losing a new pal obviously isn't that big of a deal in my opinion because there's just so good.
41:26
[SPEAKER_03]: There's such a buzzsaw.
41:28
[SPEAKER_03]: Yorktown's second best team in that conference.
41:30
[SPEAKER_03]: One of the best teams in for it.
41:32
[SPEAKER_03]: I think they go down to Columbus North.
41:34
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's a close game though.
41:36
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it'd be a really good game.
41:37
[SPEAKER_03]: It wouldn't at all shock me if even Columbus North won on their home field.
41:42
[SPEAKER_03]: But give me Yorktown to go down ice 65 there and take care of the bulldogs to Columbus North.
41:49
[SPEAKER_02]: I really like what Coach Wilhelm's done at Yorktown and I love the direction of their program.
41:54
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a big task on the road against the six eight program, but it's not bad at all.
41:59
[SPEAKER_02]: And I'm obviously, for six A, they're not competitive, but I'm taking Columbus North and this one and a really close one.
42:08
[SPEAKER_00]: This game, I think, is going to be closer for me, the hardest games to pick this week
42:18
[SPEAKER_00]: It was the toughest one, and then they're, oh, and I can't think of the other, but this is probably the third one I thought that was really going to be hard to pick because I like your downtown is very good.
42:30
[SPEAKER_00]: They are for a Columbus North is a pretty good team larger school team pretty good.
42:37
[SPEAKER_00]: It's down at Columbus North, you know, I wouldn't be surprised if this game went into overtime call on our shot man.
42:43
[SPEAKER_02]: She got a bonus point if it goes into overtime now.
42:47
[SPEAKER_00]: There it would be interesting.
42:49
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm actually going to go with Greg and I'm going to take Columbus North.
42:54
[SPEAKER_00]: And like I said, I won't be surprised if it goes into overtime.
42:56
[SPEAKER_00]: And then I won't be surprised if your town wins, but give me Columbus North because they're at home.
43:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think it's going to be a really good football game on Friday night.
43:07
[SPEAKER_01]: It might be the best game on the plate.
43:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Honestly, when it comes down to it, but I'm going to take Columbus North
43:18
[SPEAKER_02]: Grant your chance to get back in it with the Yorktown Tigers.
43:21
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a good team to hit your way too.
43:24
[SPEAKER_02]: It'd be big.
43:28
[SPEAKER_02]: In the Hoosier Legends Conference, maybe the best two teams in the Conference 3 and 1, TRI West against 4, no Indian Creek, both unbeaten in the Conference, Indian Creek ranked fourth in 3a, TRI West, 9th in 3a grant.
43:43
[SPEAKER_02]: I think the Hoosier Legends Conference probably comes down to this one, and I think it looks like another toss-up.
43:50
[SPEAKER_03]: It does look like a toss up on paper, but I'm actually going to stick with Indie and Creek to get it done.
43:55
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it'll be a heck of a game down there and Trafalgar, Indie and I have about that Trafalgar, Indie and I. I think it'll be a good game.
44:04
[SPEAKER_03]: Try West have it to go on the road a little bit of a longer bus ride.
44:07
[SPEAKER_03]: Indie and Creek ranked number four and three eight.
44:09
[SPEAKER_03]: Try West, number nine and three.
44:11
[SPEAKER_03]: It's a top 10 matchup.
44:20
[SPEAKER_03]: zero interceptions is really really good and greaty walker senior linebacker 49 tackles.
44:28
[SPEAKER_03]: I like Indian Creek in this one.
44:31
[SPEAKER_02]: I've been saying all year that I think tri-west is a state championship contender in class 3A and last week it's going to shell we will maybe convince me that they're not.
44:41
[SPEAKER_02]: Although maybe shell we will be better than we expected.
44:45
[SPEAKER_02]: But I'm not going to let it sway me.
44:46
[SPEAKER_02]: I like this team, and I like Jack Sorghe, I like Jack Sorghe, as the quarterback he is in control of that offense.
44:53
[SPEAKER_02]: And they have a lot of weapons to go around him, and a good running game, as well.
44:58
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to take tri-west and a close, close one.
45:04
[SPEAKER_00]: This is another toss-up and grant item.
45:07
[SPEAKER_00]: You're going to do very well this week, or we're going to do very well this week, or
45:12
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not, but I'm going to agree with you.
45:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I like Indian Creek in this game.
45:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I, Indian Creek has had some good teams themselves over the years.
45:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is one of their good teams.
45:22
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'm going with Indian Creek.
45:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Snowy's game I ever covered in person was in Trafalgar, a regional game between Indian Creek and Charleston.
45:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, like the way that quarterback Evan Clark takes care of the football for Indian Creek is not thrown in interception and 15 touchdown passes.
45:44
[SPEAKER_01]: You just don't get me the home team here and the increase going to pull out.
45:49
[SPEAKER_02]: And yeah, Greg's the lone wolf.
45:52
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going rogue is Michelle said, last week, I like that even better going rogue.
45:56
[SPEAKER_02]: I love going rogue with try West guys.
45:58
[SPEAKER_02]: Come on.
46:00
[SPEAKER_02]: Love it.
46:02
[SPEAKER_02]: And in the saga more conference, the big game of the weekend, and that conference is 4-0 Danville ranked 12th in Class 4-8 against 3-1 Lebanon, which is over time lost to Pittal tonight's away from being unbeaten.
46:16
[SPEAKER_02]: So they're pretty good as well.
46:17
[SPEAKER_02]: This is a really good one.
46:19
[SPEAKER_02]: The Sagron rating says Danville by seven.
46:21
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a game that could go either way as well.
46:23
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it could go either way, but honestly, I like Danville here.
46:26
[SPEAKER_03]: I know I've been, I've been big on Lebanon all year after the Penelton Heights game, but Danville's an established program number 12 and 4A, Lebanon, underanked.
46:35
[SPEAKER_03]: Danville's quarterback Carter Ward, 551 passing yards, eight touchdowns, 131 yards in the ground.
46:42
[SPEAKER_03]: Three rushing touchdowns for him.
46:44
[SPEAKER_02]: It's dating, that leads that offense, man.
46:48
[SPEAKER_02]: That is a heck of a running attack.
46:51
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean.
46:52
[SPEAKER_03]: 61 carries 364 yards eight TDs is really impressive on the, you know, middle of the season right here.
47:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't count out Levin and Jake Lenton.
47:01
[SPEAKER_03]: There's sophomore QB 678 yards passing five touchdowns.
47:06
[SPEAKER_03]: You've got Jensen Y 80 carries 511 yards 7 touchdowns, tan and mondon senior wide receivers.
47:14
[SPEAKER_03]: Got 27 catches three touchdowns for him.
47:18
[SPEAKER_03]: It'll be a close game, give me the Warriors a Danville to go on the road and take down the Lebbin and Tigers on Friday night.
47:25
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, Danville does it on the ground and it's one of the best rushing attacks in Indiana.
47:31
[SPEAKER_02]: Lebbin and Zooner through the air and Tannen and Mondin, one of the top all purpose guys in central Indiana without a doubt.
47:38
[SPEAKER_02]: It'll depend on whether Danville can get it done through on the ground.
47:42
[SPEAKER_02]: Lebbin and can get it done through the air.
47:51
[SPEAKER_00]: Are they playing on turf or are they playing on grass?
47:55
[SPEAKER_00]: It's supposed to rain on Friday evening and that could make a difference between the air and the ground game when you have two teams that excel in different areas.
48:07
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Damville's a pretty good team is really...
48:11
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think Levin is also a good team.
48:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not sure that Levin and his quite as good as they were a year ago.
48:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm man, this is a tough one.
48:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Cause Levin is at home.
48:22
[SPEAKER_00]: I will take Danville because if it does rain and they have a good ground game, they can control, they can control clock.
48:31
[SPEAKER_00]: So I will take Danville.
48:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, my cousin lives in Danville, gave me Danville.
48:43
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a good way to end it, it's a, how'd your research go this week, Kevin?
48:50
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey, Mary James says she's going with him, Bill, too.
48:53
[SPEAKER_02]: Okay, good.
48:55
[SPEAKER_02]: It's a sweet, but including Mary Jane, it's Sage 22.
48:58
[SPEAKER_03]: Speaking of football, Kevin, I like this.
49:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Gotta give a shout out to my buddy, Adam Elshot, a Lebanon tiger alum in that program.
49:08
[SPEAKER_03]: It's too bad.
49:09
[SPEAKER_03]: I think it's all the modders going to lose to Danville.
49:13
[SPEAKER_03]: And if he shows up to work tomorrow, you're telling that, Kevin.
49:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, he'll be the back on Friday.
49:21
[SPEAKER_02]: All righty, dang.

49:35
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think anybody's going 20, you know.
49:40
[SPEAKER_00]: 20 and a. I don't either.
49:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Steve's heart, Keasian said nobody would go 16 and out of the cops, but all of my did.
