Week 6 Previews & Predictions with Michelle Garmon, Kevin Helfrich & Grant Shouse (The High School Football Report, 3.52) · The Central Indiana Sports Report

0:05
[SPEAKER_03]: Welcome, high school football fans with the Central Indiana Sports Report.
0:09
[SPEAKER_03]: For our week six previews and predictions, the 20 best games in Central Indiana, we're gonna be making our predictions.
0:17
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm your host, Greg Mengal.
0:19
[SPEAKER_03]: I am joined by the Action Sports Network duo of Grant Shows and Kevin Helferic and Tipton Tribune in L. Wood Colleter Sports Editor, Michelle Garmin here to make our picks and all four of us are separated by five points.
0:35
[SPEAKER_03]: with Michelle on top with 77, Kevin 76, Greg 75, Grant 72.
0:43
[SPEAKER_03]: So, Grant, you've been even with Kevin for the last four weeks?
0:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it's just, I, week one really set me back behind the chains, you know, like, you don't know anything about the teams yet and you're kind of guessing and I had a bad week one.
1:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I've learned my lesson next year, I'll be a little more careful, week one.
1:05
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and Kevin called a shot on that one too.
1:09
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I really did.
1:10
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm looking to separate a little bit from him this week.
1:16
[SPEAKER_03]: And last week, Kevin went 18 and two.
1:19
[SPEAKER_03]: Grant with 17 and three, Michelle 16 and four, and I went 15 and five so we had a little bit of separation again.
1:28
[SPEAKER_03]: So here we go for week six, and I think this might be a separator.
1:32
[SPEAKER_03]: I see six or seven games that we could split or have somebody go rogue as I like the Michelle said a couple of weeks ago.
1:40
[SPEAKER_03]: We were saying lone wolf was just what they say on the NFL network.
1:44
[SPEAKER_03]: And so it was kind of copy of them.
1:45
[SPEAKER_03]: I like Michelle saying go and rogue.
1:47
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's what we're gonna say from now on.
1:50
[SPEAKER_03]: And that might be our first game as well, because I don't think this one's gonna be a sweet guys.
1:58
[SPEAKER_03]: is Eastbrook and Madison Grant, Eastbrook 3 and 2, Madison Grant 5 and 0.
2:03
[SPEAKER_03]: They split the last two games.
2:04
[SPEAKER_03]: The both came down to the final possessions, kind of expect the same kind of thing this year.
2:10
[SPEAKER_03]: The Sagarin rating says Madison Grant by 1.9 points.
2:16
[SPEAKER_03]: And I think that's what we're looking at here, guys.
2:18
[SPEAKER_03]: The game at Madison Grant, which may give them the edge.
2:23
[SPEAKER_03]: This is going to be a tough choice, guys.
2:25
[SPEAKER_03]: I know at least three of us have seen Eastbrook in a couple of us at least a seed Madison Grant this year.
2:33
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it would have to be the first one and it's one.
2:35
[SPEAKER_02]: Then I've kind of went back and forth in my mind all night long.
2:39
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm still sure I'm not sure I've really made up my mind yet.
2:41
[SPEAKER_02]: So I've seen Eastbrook that not seen Madison Grant, but I think I've got my mind made up who I'm going with when it's my call.
2:54
[SPEAKER_01]: These two teams are at the same level, I think, in my opinion, I think both teams run the ball very well.
3:01
[SPEAKER_01]: I think they're capable of being able to throw the ball very well.
3:04
[SPEAKER_01]: They're both well-oiled machines.
3:06
[SPEAKER_01]: They both have decent offensive lines.
3:09
[SPEAKER_01]: They both have really stout defenses.
3:12
[SPEAKER_01]: This is going to be a fun one.
3:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's the game to be at.
3:15
[SPEAKER_01]: There's no doubt our central Indiana
3:18
[SPEAKER_01]: game of the week.
3:19
[SPEAKER_01]: And then a couple weeks when Madison Grant plays Mr. Sinoa on Oak Hill plays Eastbrook, those are also going to be good games.
3:26
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the four teams in the county are still really good teams.
3:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I think Mr. Sinoa might be the best, but this Eastbrook Madison Grant matchup is really going to tell the tale of how the CIC's able to finish.
3:40
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know who I'm going to pick.
3:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Same with, you know, similar to what Kevin just
3:44
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not sure who I'll pick.
3:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm kind of just going to go with it on the fly.
3:48
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got an idea.
3:49
[SPEAKER_01]: It's going to be heck of a game though.
3:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, here's what I think.
3:53
[SPEAKER_00]: When you have two evenly matched teams, primarily running teams, but can't throw the football and have two good defenses.
4:02
[SPEAKER_00]: I think there are three determining factors.
4:07
[SPEAKER_00]: One is the trenches who can control the line of screen which who can control the line of scrimmage better or at least.
4:17
[SPEAKER_00]: more on more drives than the other team.
4:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Turnovers and special teams.
4:22
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, this game is going to come down to special teams field position, PATs and turnovers.
4:29
[SPEAKER_00]: A turnover could give a team the ball with a short field.
4:33
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just think that when you have evenly matched teams, that's those are the determining factors.
4:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
4:42
[SPEAKER_03]: hand.
4:43
[SPEAKER_03]: It's my turn to make this pick.
4:45
[SPEAKER_03]: It's the game.
4:45
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm gonna be at on Friday night.
4:47
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm looking very forward to be in back at Madison Grant on a Friday night.
4:53
[SPEAKER_03]: And my heart says Madison Grant, but I feel like both of you, I still feel like I'm going back and forth, but I'm taking East Brook to win this one and a slight upset.
5:06
[SPEAKER_03]: Mostly because I think you guys are going to take Madison Grant.
5:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, Greg, you'd be wrong because I've been leaning East Brook since you announced that this we're going to be the game of the week.
5:20
[SPEAKER_00]: I know Madison Grant got a win over East Brook a couple of years ago, but that was a really down year for East Brook.
5:27
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Jeff has a really good team for Madison Grant, too.
5:30
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and I think Jeff Adams and is going to have his team really ready.
5:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I think that loss of Alexandria may have been the most beneficial loss that that program's had in a couple of years.
5:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I think it improved them and got them maybe refocused.
5:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I just like that the pace that they play at, they seem to always control pace.
5:55
[SPEAKER_00]: That's it.
5:56
[SPEAKER_00]: Jeff Adams and trademark.
5:58
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to take Eastbrook.
5:59
[SPEAKER_00]: I do think it will be close.
6:00
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm taking the Panthers.
6:05
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, this is going to be tough for me because I've picked against both of these teams quite a bit this year and I haven't faired too well at times.
6:13
[SPEAKER_02]: But you know, the last I saw Eastbrook was against Blackford and it's hard to really say if they've really improved that much or is it just the competition they were playing?
6:25
[SPEAKER_02]: Still not necessarily sold on East Brook haven't seen Madison Grant just something about Jeff Adams and then that nine and one record in the last 10 years I guess Madison Grant I will take the Panthers as well.
6:37
[SPEAKER_03]: Woo.
6:38
[SPEAKER_03]: By the way, Grant.
6:40
[SPEAKER_03]: The Sagarin rating has East Brook at 49.63 and Madison Grant at 49.69.
6:46
[SPEAKER_01]: And you can't I mean, you almost can't get any closer in that.
6:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Honestly, I'm cutting to the point.
6:55
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm picking east, Brooke.
6:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
6:59
[SPEAKER_01]: I think we could all be sitting here on Friday night and texting each other in our thread and go, my goodness, why in the world did we pick against Madison Grant again?
7:10
[SPEAKER_01]: I could see a happening.
7:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna go with my gut.
7:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking the panthers.
7:16
[SPEAKER_01]: give Jeff Adams and time to prepare.
7:18
[SPEAKER_01]: I know they played black for it and I wouldn't back to back weeks.
7:21
[SPEAKER_01]: They've had time to really prepare for Madison grand.
7:24
[SPEAKER_01]: I know that you don't want to overlook a team like black for their L would, but they have struggled.
7:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I think he's for it's been prepared.
7:32
[SPEAKER_01]: I think the right way to go.
7:32
[SPEAKER_01]: I think they're hitting that point in the season.
7:35
[SPEAKER_01]: They're mid stride right now.
7:36
[SPEAKER_01]: They've got a winning record.
7:37
[SPEAKER_01]: They've got some momentum.
7:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me the Panthers to knock off the R dials on Friday and I had down
7:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Eastbrook having Blackburn and I would like that kind of back to back.
7:50
[SPEAKER_00]: I think was beneficial to them, not necessarily in terms of, but it's been so hot.
7:54
[SPEAKER_00]: It's finally cooled off.
7:56
[SPEAKER_00]: I think those kids are going to come in with a little bit fresher legs because they have not had to play for a course.
8:02
[SPEAKER_00]: Normally, sometimes I think that can be a detriment, but I don't think it is when it's been as hot as it has been the first four or five weeks of the season.
8:13
[SPEAKER_03]: Here's what I know.
8:13
[SPEAKER_03]: We've motivated Madison Grant.
8:15
[SPEAKER_03]: That's for sure.
8:17
[SPEAKER_03]: I did not expect that.
8:18
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought it was going to be 3-1 Madison Grant not a East Brook sweep and we moved to game number two, which is windless, affranken at stunningly 2 and 3 Alexander area, which two weeks ago, look, I could might be the favorite to win the CIC.
8:33
[SPEAKER_03]: Two bad second halves later, and they are 2 and 3 and hosting.
8:38
[SPEAKER_03]: The Franks and Eagles who I've been saying the last couple weeks are starting to look like a true varsity football team.
8:45
[SPEAKER_03]: They're competitive with good teams across from them Oak Hill and Madison Grant.
8:50
[SPEAKER_03]: The scores haven't really shown it.
8:51
[SPEAKER_03]: They've lost by double digit points, both games, but they were competitive in both games for most of them.
9:00
[SPEAKER_03]: both games seem to turn on a player to or they had a chance to beat both of those teams.
9:08
[SPEAKER_03]: And I like the way that they're playing, but they're not playing well enough to beat Alexander.
9:14
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to agree with you.
9:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I think the one thing that frightened, I still haven't seen.
9:19
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think that they're really
9:23
[SPEAKER_00]: Strong yet is past defense.
9:24
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's been a rough maybe a couple of weeks for the first year sophomore quarterback in Alexandria.
9:31
[SPEAKER_00]: He's faced some really good teams and they'd had enough film to prepare for him.
9:35
[SPEAKER_00]: But
9:36
[SPEAKER_00]: I just don't think Frantan's matches up well against teams that can throw the ball well and our balance and Frantan I don't think they're running game is strong enough yet.
9:47
[SPEAKER_00]: For me, they still got a ways to go and I think Alexander is going to win it, Frantan may get a little closer, but it's also Alex, homecoming, I say they win by at least two touchdowns.
9:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry Marty and the Eagles.
10:06
[SPEAKER_02]: then go so well in the second half like Greg mentioned are they're going to get right this week against Frank and I think Frank's and I'll be competitive, especially at least the first half.
10:15
[SPEAKER_02]: They're definitely improving and just look at how they played mass in great last week, but I'm still going to take the Tigers.
10:22
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm taking the Tigers to make it a street and our third and final game in the CIC with Mrs. and Juan
10:34
[SPEAKER_03]: is Oak Hill at Blackford, Oak Hill 2 and 3.
10:39
[SPEAKER_03]: They've won back to back games and starting 0 and 3.
10:42
[SPEAKER_03]: The win over Frank and 42 to 13, then a kind of surprising 35, 21 win over Alexander, although I picked Alexander last week.
10:52
[SPEAKER_03]: I did say that
10:55
[SPEAKER_03]: the tigers were on upset alert.
10:58
[SPEAKER_03]: I will point that out, but none of us picked okay.
11:01
[SPEAKER_03]: Also a little bit of a surprise blackford one and four.
11:04
[SPEAKER_03]: They've been beaten by East Brook 64 to six and Mrs. Sinoff 54 to nothing since their win over Elwood.
11:12
[SPEAKER_03]: And this is going to be an easy win for Oak Hill three in a row.
11:17
[SPEAKER_00]: I did a exactly what you said.
11:22
[SPEAKER_02]: I like the gold niggles to get back to 500 for the first time this season.
11:28
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep, they will beat Blackford in my opinion.
11:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Although I do want to throw up some stats here because I've got the game on Friday night over in Hartford City.
11:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Blackford in their last two games, guys.
11:38
[SPEAKER_01]: And I know they've played East frickin' Mrs. Sennelall, which I get it.
11:44
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, those teams are really good, but Blackford's been outscored in the last two weeks,
11:51
[SPEAKER_01]: And I think that continues this week.
11:53
[SPEAKER_01]: I could see Oak Hill's defense.
11:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe being capable of pitching a shutout.
11:58
[SPEAKER_01]: When you look at this series, Blackford's only one four times.
12:01
[SPEAKER_01]: They went three in a row from 2017 to 2019.
12:04
[SPEAKER_01]: But since then, Oak Hill's one every game since 2019, they've won 2020 through every year since.
12:11
[SPEAKER_01]: And they've outscored Blackford in that stretch 273 to 12.
12:16
[SPEAKER_01]: So I looked for that to continue jet on
12:21
[SPEAKER_01]: running and throwing when you look at what he did.
12:23
[SPEAKER_01]: He was 10 of 14 through the arrogant tags and 146 yards.
12:27
[SPEAKER_01]: Two touchdowns.
12:28
[SPEAKER_01]: He was their leading rest.
12:29
[SPEAKER_01]: You're carried the ball 16 times 134 yards and a touchdown, Dylan Archer, also their main fullback.
12:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I look for that to continue.
12:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I think Oak Hill wins pretty handedly over the Bruins of Black Group.
12:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Here's why I don't think that they will get a shutout.
12:45
[SPEAKER_03]: And that's because I
12:47
[SPEAKER_03]: I know that Blackford's not any good, but Kevin can attest to this because he saw him last week.
12:53
[SPEAKER_03]: Brady Bannister is a good running back and Blackford is capable of moving the ball from time to time they did.
12:59
[SPEAKER_03]: They went up and down the field a little on Mrs. Sinema and actually got inside the five varsity V varsity.
13:06
[SPEAKER_03]: So I think Blackford's capable scoring, but yeah, it's not going to be a fun night for the Blackford team.
13:16
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I thought in the first half against Mr. Rollerwood at the first quarter, they had a chance to make it, I think, a one-scorer game and they were moving the ball.
13:23
[SPEAKER_02]: They just stalled inside the ten, like you said, but they, they, they can move the football.
13:30
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, Brady Bannister is one of the best running backs in the CIC, despite the fact that his team gets blown out by most CIC teams.
13:38
[SPEAKER_03]: He really is.
13:40
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember him from last year, he just keeps churning those legs, I mean, he's not easy to bring down.
13:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Speaking of which, we moved to the Hoosier Conference, and that's where we're going to see lots of good running backs in this one.
13:58
[SPEAKER_03]: Tipton at Logan's port, Tipton comes in at four and one Logan's port still unbeaten at five and no haven't really been challenged and looked like the cream of the crop in the Hoosier Conference along with wind lakes.
14:11
[SPEAKER_03]: Tipton coming off a 69-14 win over Benton Central in which
14:16
[SPEAKER_03]: Zane Durham had over 400 yards of offense and eight touchdowns on just 12 touches.
14:24
[SPEAKER_00]: To keep it close, I'm hoping at least that they can keep it real.
14:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Keep it real competitive through a half, maybe two and a half quarters, but I think that Logan's ports, athletic athleticism and speed, because they have more of it than
14:47
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me Logan's Fort and I don't think it's all that close.
14:52
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me Logan's Fort as well, I echo Kevin, I don't think it'll be close.
14:57
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I think it could be close, by the way, I could see an avenue to tip and keep in this close, but too many advantages for Logan's Fort, it is a very sweet.
15:09
[SPEAKER_03]: staying in the Housier Conference.
15:10
[SPEAKER_03]: Hamilton Heights is at Central Catholic.
15:13
[SPEAKER_03]: Both teams are two and three.
15:15
[SPEAKER_03]: Hamilton Heights started O and three.
15:17
[SPEAKER_03]: They've since beaten Tipton and Western a couple of nice wins.
15:20
[SPEAKER_03]: Central Catholic started two and one.
15:23
[SPEAKER_03]: They've since lost a Logan's port and twin legs, the two best teams.
15:27
[SPEAKER_03]: In the conference this looks like a pretty even matchup.
15:35
[SPEAKER_03]: And I favor Hamilton Heights as well.
15:38
[SPEAKER_03]: I like what Coach Small is doing.
15:40
[SPEAKER_03]: I think that it'll be fairly similar to the Tippedon game in that central graphical do some things to keep it close.
15:46
[SPEAKER_03]: But Hamilton Heights in the end will be the better team.
15:48
[SPEAKER_03]: The bigger stronger tougher team.
15:51
[SPEAKER_03]: And they will win probably by two touchdowns pulling away late.
15:57
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Hamilton Heights is defense.
16:00
[SPEAKER_00]: will stymie central Catholic Central Catholic can't really run the football.
16:04
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, their line is not their offensive line either offensive or defensive lines are very big.
16:11
[SPEAKER_00]: Hites, neither hites is lines, but what heights has is they have a lot of speed coming in off the edges to rush the quarterback to get to you to get into the back till the night.
16:24
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think they're
16:29
[SPEAKER_00]: the central Catholic receivers, especially in that secondary, I don't know if everybody's aware, but Hamilton Heights's secondary is coached by Sterling Weatherford who was an all-mack.
16:41
[SPEAKER_00]: uh, safety for Miami, Ohio and uh, was an undrafted free agent signed by the Colts who was they released him after the preseason, although he led the Colts and tackles and then he was picked up by the bears, but his NFL hopes ended with a knee injury, but uh, he knows he was good in the second there.
17:00
[SPEAKER_00]: He's coached those kids up.
17:01
[SPEAKER_00]: I think pretty well.
17:03
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think this is when they're going to be close, honestly.
17:05
[SPEAKER_00]: I know
17:06
[SPEAKER_00]: It's at Central Catholic, but I think the Huskies, they're ready to start really getting on a good roll.
17:14
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, Paris saw more quarterbacks, lead these two teams in action.
17:17
[SPEAKER_02]: And statistically, Staples and Storms for 15 touchdown passes completed over 65 percent of his passes.
17:25
[SPEAKER_02]: But I think I'll agree with both of you.
17:27
[SPEAKER_02]: I think Hamilton Heights wins this game.
17:29
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's, you know, anywhere from a touchdown to maybe two touchdown game.
17:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll tell you what, when you sent out the list of games, Greg, and I saw this one, I thought this could be a really good game.
17:43
[SPEAKER_01]: And honestly, I probably would have picked Central Catholic if I would have gone first tonight.
17:49
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not in a lie.
17:49
[SPEAKER_01]: But after hearing what you guys have had to say about heights and their ability and all this stuff, and they beat Tipped in and Tipped into good team, I'll take the Huskies to be Lafayette Central Catholic.
18:03
[SPEAKER_01]: I like that, just admit it.
18:05
[SPEAKER_03]: Just admit it, go ahead, Grant.
18:07
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, by the way.
18:09
[SPEAKER_02]: You see why he's still only four games behind me.
18:11
[SPEAKER_03]: That's right.
18:12
[SPEAKER_03]: Central Catholic, by the way, four rushing yards to last two weeks combined.
18:18
[SPEAKER_03]: That's not gonna get the job done against Hamiltonites.
18:21
[SPEAKER_00]: No, and Heights has a running game.
18:22
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, AJ Flanagan is a good running back.
18:25
[SPEAKER_00]: And...
18:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
18:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Central Catholic's not the best at stopping the run.
18:32
[SPEAKER_03]: and in the eastern crossroads northeastern goes to lapel lapel number one and one pole number two and the other pole northeastern is three and two a very good team
18:43
[SPEAKER_03]: in class 2A, but not nearly as good as lapel, which is just having its way with everybody.
18:49
[SPEAKER_03]: And as we mentioned on our week five recap show, go check that out.
18:53
[SPEAKER_03]: If you haven't, this might be lapel's best team ever, despite losing a all-state quarterback, which is incredible.
19:01
[SPEAKER_03]: What an incredible job they've done at lapel.
19:05
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, they're going to win easy, by the way.
19:07
[SPEAKER_00]: This could be a what you call a track week for lapel because looming large next week is going to be a great show down with Eastern Hancock.
19:17
[SPEAKER_00]: However, I think the Bulldogs are just playing so well and are so talented, they could come out maybe a little slow or maybe not as fired up as normal, but I don't think it's going to matter.
19:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they will win big again this week and boy next Friday setting up to be a doozy.
19:37
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll say this Kevin, I bet Northeastern doesn't score 56 points again this week, like they did last week against centerville.
19:44
[SPEAKER_02]: No, you know, LaPelle's defense is really good.
19:48
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm just not going to compare it with scores.
19:50
[SPEAKER_02]: The centerville game, as you mentioned, Northeastern put up 56, but they gave up 42.
19:54
[SPEAKER_02]: LaPelle will be the centerville 40 to 10.
19:57
[SPEAKER_02]: I think it's more like that.
19:58
[SPEAKER_02]: The Northeastern is not going to score that many points.
20:01
[SPEAKER_02]: LaPelle and I pull out of this one.
20:09
[SPEAKER_03]: And in the three rivers conference, a game that will almost certainly, at least decide a code conference champion, probably the outright conference champion, the only two unbeaten teams left in the three rivers conference.
20:24
[SPEAKER_03]: It's the Northwestern Tigers at the McConaughey Braves, and this one looks like
20:31
[SPEAKER_03]: Could be a really good game with a lot of points to really good quarterbacks who have thrown 35 touchdowns combined and are completing 67% of their passes combined.
20:43
[SPEAKER_03]: Both teams have given up a lot of points in certain games and both teams have put up a lot of points in every game.
20:48
[SPEAKER_03]: So this one could be in the 50's each with, you know, game where both teams reach the 50's.
21:02
[SPEAKER_03]: And I just have a feeling here.
21:03
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm taking Northwestern to win this game.
21:06
[SPEAKER_03]: I, I know Aiden Robinson is really good, but I think Colin Cook is gonna have a great game.
21:12
[SPEAKER_03]: He has a lot of receiving options too.
21:15
[SPEAKER_03]: I really like Braden Wilson and Schiefer is their burner.
21:21
[SPEAKER_03]: Give me Northwestern and a close one, 61 to 58.
21:26
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, I don't think it's gonna be a basketball score.
21:30
[SPEAKER_00]: But I do think it's going to be close.
21:32
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm taking a kind of call.
21:34
[SPEAKER_00]: They're at home.
21:35
[SPEAKER_00]: They're pretty strong team.
21:37
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm maybe not quite as good as they have been the last couple years, but they're still really strong.
21:44
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think the home field on Friday night for them.
21:48
[SPEAKER_00]: I bet you it's their home coming.
21:50
[SPEAKER_00]: And I know that doesn't mean you're gonna win, but it means you should have a fired up student section to help you keep, come out with some emotion.
21:59
[SPEAKER_00]: Give me the braves in a close one.
22:04
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I wanna give a plug to our station, the actions forced never, everybody in everybody can listen to that game and probably I have time to switch over after all the other games are going, that's right.
22:13
[SPEAKER_03]: It's gonna be high, high scoring like Drake said.
22:16
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me a conical at home to pull this one out.
22:19
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think the brave's loose on their home field although I think Northwestern is right there, Dianne.
22:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I agree with Kevin.
22:27
[SPEAKER_01]: It's gonna be just shoot out.
22:29
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't, you know, like Michelle said, I don't know, necessarily be a basketball score.
22:34
[SPEAKER_01]: It might be, I think there'd be a lot of points put up.
22:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking a conical here, Aiden Robinson, he's got so many weapons in the passing game.
22:42
[SPEAKER_01]: They're really good, so's North Western.
22:45
[SPEAKER_01]: It's gonna be a good game.
22:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking the Braves to knock off North Western.
22:50
[SPEAKER_01]: On the road, it'll be a fun one now.
22:52
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I can't see any way it's not a high scoring game, and now it'll probably be 14 to 13.
22:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I went rogue on that one, although I went first, so I don't know if that's really going rogue, but you guys made me rogue and I love it.
23:07
[SPEAKER_03]: Give me Northwestern, give me Satan, turnip seed, Colin Cook, and the Tigers.
23:12
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it.
23:17
[SPEAKER_03]: staying in the three rivers conference two teams trying to stay near the top of the conference and the reason this is on our list of games is because the Sagarin rating says Rochester by zero point six so could really go either way the last couple of weeks.
23:34
[SPEAKER_03]: Haru has really been competitive with North Western and McConaugue while their other loss was to Logan's port early in the year.
23:40
[SPEAKER_03]: So three losses to three good teams and they have done some good things at all three of those games.
23:47
[SPEAKER_03]: Rochester had just had a nice win over Clinton Prairie 56 to the 26 before losing last week to lose a cast.
23:53
[SPEAKER_03]: This should be a really good game and I'm taking Haru on the road Michelle.
23:58
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, well, you know, we've got two teams with safari animals as their mascots.
24:05
[SPEAKER_00]: That's right.
24:05
[SPEAKER_00]: The big old tigers in the Zebris.
24:08
[SPEAKER_03]: That's why I'm taking the tigers in the show.
24:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I have anything peru is better and I think it's going to be a competitive game.
24:17
[SPEAKER_00]: When I looked at it before I even saw the segregatings, I thought this was going to be really close game in a tough one.
24:22
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm going to take Rochester.
24:25
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, yeah, you look at this series, you know, 12-11 overall and Rod Chester's.
24:30
[SPEAKER_02]: One to last two and one, pretty handling.
24:33
[SPEAKER_02]: I think Perus and approved football team.
24:34
[SPEAKER_02]: I think their defense is tough.
24:37
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'm not confident in this pick, but I'm going to take Rod Chester at home and I agree with Michelle.
24:43
[SPEAKER_01]: What concerns me about Perus is defensively.
24:45
[SPEAKER_01]: They're allowing 32 points of game.
24:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Greg said they've been competitive.
24:50
[SPEAKER_01]: in games and back to back weeks is Northwestern and mechanical, but they still let mechanical score 63 points.
24:57
[SPEAKER_01]: And I know they scored 42.
24:59
[SPEAKER_01]: I know it was like 42, 35, half time or something crazy like 30, 5, 28, and half last week.
25:07
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me Rod Chester.
25:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I think they're going to be able to slow Peru down a little bit and defensively Peru concerns me.
25:15
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll take December as I know that they probably never went in the wild, but they're going to win on the field on Friday.
25:22
[SPEAKER_03]: So two in a row, I went rogue in the three reverse conference, so we're going to have our eyes on that conference, and I'm a little concerned, because you guys know that conference a little better than I do.
25:35
[SPEAKER_03]: And we move to a very interesting non-conference game.
25:39
[SPEAKER_03]: In class 4A, it is Danville at Yorktown to ranked teams going head to head at Yorktown.
25:46
[SPEAKER_03]: Yorktown really beefing up.
25:48
[SPEAKER_03]: It's non-conference schedule last week against Columbus North this week against Danville and man.
25:53
[SPEAKER_03]: That is a tough four-week stretch when you include New Powell and Delta and there as well, man.
25:59
[SPEAKER_03]: But Yorktown has been very, very good.
26:03
[SPEAKER_03]: And it looks like a slight favorite at home in this one.
26:05
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm taking the Tigers.
26:07
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't dare go against him again.
26:09
[SPEAKER_03]: Grant was the, went rogue last week at the Tigers and got a bonus point with them.
26:14
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm not letting that happen again, Michelle.
26:18
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this is also another tough game and I'm going to do like Hive Done and the other couple tough games and I'm going to go with a home team.
26:26
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm taking Yorktown.
26:28
[SPEAKER_00]: I like what they've done.
26:29
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Danville is a really good team.
26:32
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Yorktown is really pretty good at home, so give me the Tigers.
26:39
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you look at this matchup and both teams can put points on the board yet both defenses don't really give up a whole lot.
26:46
[SPEAKER_02]: So something's going to give I think this week, but I think it's going to be a game where, you know, it's going to be tight.
26:52
[SPEAKER_02]: It's going to come down as a final quarter of being at home like you said and Michelle, I like your account in this one.
27:03
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me your account as well.
27:05
[SPEAKER_01]: It'll be a good game.
27:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Danville's been a really good team.
27:08
[SPEAKER_01]: This year, but I've been real impressed with the New York town all season long.
27:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking the tigers.
27:15
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and if it's a close game, Caden Crume's always makes a play.
27:19
[SPEAKER_03]: And he is one of the biggest reasons that Yorktown is so good on both sides of the ball.
27:24
[SPEAKER_03]: It is a Yorktown sweep, but that one could go either way.
27:27
[SPEAKER_03]: Danville's been really good beat Levin in last week.
27:30
[SPEAKER_03]: And Dayton Hood is one of the best running backs in Central India.
27:35
[SPEAKER_03]: And then our game number 10, I had not even going to make anybody make a pick, everyone's going to pick Westel.
27:40
[SPEAKER_03]: I just wanted to point out Westel in this one because they are five and oh, they're about to be six and oh, they scored 50 points and four, they're five games.
27:49
[SPEAKER_03]: And last week was Heritage Christian, not a very good team this year, but a traditional
27:55
[SPEAKER_03]: really good program and I think this is for real and I just wanted to point it out and also point out that next week I'm going to be talking with Kate Hampton of the Muncie Star Press about West Del after he covers this game on Friday night.
28:09
[SPEAKER_00]: Monroe Central probably has played maybe a little bit tougher schedule overall, but West Hill is they are destroying teams and I think they're going when it's said then they're going to have enjoyed one of their best seasons in a very long time.
28:24
[SPEAKER_00]: So I believe the wayers will keep things rolling this week.
28:27
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
28:30
[SPEAKER_03]: And the biggest reason is a young man, a senior name, Riker Mach, who is a full-back and defensive end, and is just a beast.
28:39
[SPEAKER_03]: By the end of the game last week, against Heritage Christian, they did not want to tackle him.
28:44
[SPEAKER_03]: They wanted nothing to do with him by the end of the game, and he's equally good at lead blocking, and is really disruptive on defense.
28:52
[SPEAKER_03]: And Westdale has an all-state level player there with Riker Mach, who really jumped out to me.
28:59
[SPEAKER_03]: Heritage Christian.
29:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Guys, let's take a quick break.
29:01
[SPEAKER_03]: We'll be right back to talk about the best games in Central Indiana.
29:08
[SPEAKER_03]: If you're just discovering the Central Indiana Sports Report, you may have noticed that we thrive on high school sports, but that's not all we do.
29:15
[SPEAKER_03]: We also have a Pacer's Report, a Fever Report, a Culture Report, IU Report, a Purdue Report, and an Indie Car Report.
29:24
[SPEAKER_03]: And much more, so please go check it out and subscribe.
29:36
[SPEAKER_03]: Welcome back to part two of the Central Indian sports reports week six previews and predictions here with Michelle Garmin Grant Shouse in Kevin Helferick and here to pick the best games in Central Indian outside of our media area and that includes the Huzoor Crossroads and the Metropolitan and that's where we start with the game of the week is in the Huzoor Crossroads and it is the game of the year and the regular season for sure and maybe again
30:03
[SPEAKER_03]: in the state championship.
30:04
[SPEAKER_03]: Like the last two years, it's number one Browns broke at home against number two Westfield in a game I think most people can't wait to see.
30:17
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'll tell you what, if you know,
30:22
[SPEAKER_00]: That would, I think fans will get their money's worth on that game.
30:25
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, you know, if the Hoosiers weren't playing and I wasn't going to keep an eye on tipped in, I would definitely tune in that game on Friday night.
30:35
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, actually, I think it's a shame that I used playing at home that night with that game, because I think there would be a lot of fans that maybe we'd go check out that game to check out sharps and look at Westfield.
30:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Actually, I think it's a shame college, the big 10 college football.
30:51
[SPEAKER_00]: the power conferences have gone to putting football games on Friday nights.
30:57
[SPEAKER_03]: I'll tell you why do you guys see that Brandon Sharp play on Friday night at was.
31:02
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm in it.
31:03
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm just spoiler alert.
31:04
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm going to end up taking the team with Brandon Sharp on it.
31:08
[SPEAKER_00]: Me too.
31:09
[SPEAKER_00]: My pick is Brownsburg until I lose and I'm not sure if they'll lose this year.
31:15
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's going to be
31:18
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, yeah, you look at this.
31:19
[SPEAKER_02]: They played four times in the last two years and all the games have been, you know, a touchdown or less.
31:25
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't see it any different this time around, but those games have been kind of different.
31:30
[SPEAKER_02]: The regular season games have been more low scoring at the playoffs game last year was high school.
31:35
[SPEAKER_02]: And I think I think there's points on the board tomorrow night, but I think it's Brownsburg that pulls it out in the fourth corner as well.
31:44
[SPEAKER_01]: I agree.
31:44
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm taking Brownsburg.
31:45
[SPEAKER_01]: It'll be a heck of a game.
31:47
[SPEAKER_01]: Just like it always is, but I think Brownsburg's the better team.
31:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't, I haven't seen a team or heard about a team yet this year that I think can beat Brownsburg.
31:58
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it'll be a close game, but I'm going to take Brownsburg.
32:01
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't see any way it's not a close game.
32:04
[SPEAKER_03]: Cooper Melvin, a quarterback for Westfield, one of the states very best quarterbacks, a two-way player can do with his arm or his legs.
32:15
[SPEAKER_03]: They have so many different weapons including probably the best punt returner in Central Indiana.
32:21
[SPEAKER_03]: And they are really good.
32:24
[SPEAKER_03]: What Josh Miracle has built there at Westfield is impressive, but
32:29
[SPEAKER_03]: what Brownsburg's doing right now is getting close to unprecedented and as long as Oscar fries their quarterback and he's throwing the ball to Brandon Sharp, it's hard for me to believe that Brownsburg behind that big offensive line, that tough defense isn't going to win another state championship and another conference championship by beating Westfield on Friday night.
32:52
[SPEAKER_00]: So Westfield won't pull a miracle to break Brownsburg's heart.
33:01
[SPEAKER_03]: A plus.
33:03
[SPEAKER_03]: And we stay in the Hoosier Crossroads where it is 0 and 5 fishers at 4 and 1 A. Vaughn and surprisingly, fishers is 1.5 in a row in the series.
33:13
[SPEAKER_03]: I say surprisingly, because A. Vaughn's been so good the last few years.
33:16
[SPEAKER_03]: And fishers has really dominated the series.
33:20
[SPEAKER_03]: A. Vaughn last week, look like they might lose to Franklin Central, then came back and dominated
33:29
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't think Avon's the same team without him.
33:31
[SPEAKER_03]: I think he's that good, but I also don't think Fisher is very good this year either and Avon's gonna win this game, show.
33:39
[SPEAKER_00]: I agree, I think Avon will win the game.
33:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Fisher is young.
33:43
[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to be better in the future.
33:46
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
33:47
[SPEAKER_00]: Because they're gonna get better each week as they gain experience, but they're not there yet.
33:54
[SPEAKER_03]: And we're familiar with how good of a coach Kurt Funk is.
33:58
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, I mean, I just use it.
33:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Ms. Sennelaw, I want a lot of games here.
34:01
[SPEAKER_02]: One of the sectionals and what strikes me is a little bit ironic, you have a 6A program yet you're starting to a freshman quarterback maybe he's that good, but that's tough to win 6A football when you're starting to a freshman quarterback.
34:14
[SPEAKER_02]: And pardon me, what's the take fishers in this game just because they dominated the series of late, but I don't know if I'm just tells me I gotta take a even though they almost blew it last week for us.
34:28
[SPEAKER_01]: I was impressed with Avon to come back last week.
34:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Avon to team again, they're kind of like Yorktown for me, like Greg's hyped him up.
34:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I've listened to it.
34:38
[SPEAKER_01]: He actually gets a chance to watch it on Friday and I don't.
34:42
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm just going off with what the mastermind's telling me and the mastermind's saying, Abon, I'm taking the orals.
34:54
[SPEAKER_03]: And in the Hoosier Crossroads is forward one Zion's Villet 2 and 3 Hamilton's out these turn.
34:59
[SPEAKER_03]: And this one should be a really good one.
35:01
[SPEAKER_03]: I think if you were going to ask which games could be the most competitive, you could definitely say this one on Friday night.
35:07
[SPEAKER_03]: Again, that could definitely go either way.
35:09
[SPEAKER_03]: A series that's gone back and forth through the years and Zion's will one last year, 35, 29.
35:13
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's kind of how they'd been winning games this year.
35:17
[SPEAKER_03]: Really, really impressed with Titan Theo shot one of the best junior Titans in the country
35:22
[SPEAKER_03]: target of many big 10 schools and also impressed with a young quarterback at Hamilton South Eastern named Deacon Johnson.
35:30
[SPEAKER_03]: He's got some good weapons as well, some good young weapons.
35:34
[SPEAKER_03]: And like Fisher's Hamilton South Eastern seems like a program on the rise and I'm taking the royals in an upset here.
35:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, okay.
35:44
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to take Zion's bill by a field goal because great you tell me they got the best field goal kicker in the state.
35:49
[SPEAKER_00]: It's probably going to be a close
35:51
[SPEAKER_00]: might come down to that foot, so give me the Zion's really equals.
35:57
[SPEAKER_03]: Not just the best I've seen this year, the best I've ever seen.
36:02
[SPEAKER_03]: Best kick, high school kicker I've never seen.
36:04
[SPEAKER_03]: Sam Black.
36:08
[SPEAKER_02]: As Zion'sville's been winning a pretty close game.
36:11
[SPEAKER_02]: You look at the last two weeks.
36:12
[SPEAKER_02]: They won by six and four against Franklin, Central, Novelsville, where as Hamilton's out the Eastern, it's played in the Fisters and they beat them pretty handily, but then Westfield dropped him.
36:24
[SPEAKER_02]: I like Zion'sville in a close one.
36:26
[SPEAKER_02]: Just I don't think Hamilton's out the Eastern's defense is good enough to win this one.
36:33
[SPEAKER_01]: Boy, I'll tell you what, it'd be another good game.
36:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I'm going to pick Hamilton's out the Eastern here.
36:41
[SPEAKER_01]: I think it would be a great game.
36:42
[SPEAKER_01]: I like what you say about the kicker, Greg.
36:44
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure he's good.
36:46
[SPEAKER_01]: I think Hamilton's out the Eastern is a better team.
36:49
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'll take the royals.
36:51
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, by the way, he was the difference in both of those games the last two weeks, in both of those wins.
36:59
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't say enough about him.
37:01
[SPEAKER_03]: I really like the direction of this Hamilton South Eastern program.
37:04
[SPEAKER_03]: I think two years from now we're going to be talking about them as an elite program again.
37:11
[SPEAKER_03]: There is one more game in the Huzoor Crossroads and it's another game that should be really competitive.
37:15
[SPEAKER_03]: It is Franklin Central at Noble'sville.
37:17
[SPEAKER_03]: Franklin Central comes in a one and four.
37:19
[SPEAKER_03]: Noble'sville two and three, but they both been very competitive in their losses against good teams.
37:25
[SPEAKER_03]: So it's
37:27
[SPEAKER_03]: kind of a toss up game at noblesville, but I really like what Franklin Central's do, and I think they are going to be competitive with good teams in this conference.
37:36
[SPEAKER_03]: And should probably win some games here down the stretch.
37:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Greene, I'm taking Franklin Central.
37:42
[SPEAKER_00]: I know they're one of four, but that record is very deceiving.
37:45
[SPEAKER_00]: I think this will be a close game.
37:47
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Franklin Central is just probably a tad bit better than noblesville so on.
37:52
[SPEAKER_00]: Give me Franklin Central.
37:57
[SPEAKER_02]: Give me frank on central as well.
38:01
[SPEAKER_03]: Here's a chance, Grant.
38:04
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm taking frank on central, I think.
38:08
[SPEAKER_03]: And now we move to the metropolitan conference where Carmel goes to North Central, North Central, then very competitive this year with Warren Central and with Senator Grove, they were blown out by Lawrence North.
38:20
[SPEAKER_03]: Carmel comes in at two in three, who thought they would lose three games this year?
38:25
[SPEAKER_03]: They have lost, of course, to three of the best teams in the state.
38:29
[SPEAKER_03]: Tough game here at North Central, but it's going to be Carmel, Michelle.
38:33
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh yes, give me the gray hounds.
38:35
[SPEAKER_00]: I think they're hungry for a win and I think they'll come in with a little bit of a chip on their shoulder and give me, like I say, give me the gray hounds.
38:47
[SPEAKER_02]: Oh, calm with the resounding win.
38:49
[SPEAKER_02]: They're going to put up a lot of points in this one.
38:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me the dogs in this one.
38:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me the house.
38:57
[SPEAKER_03]: It is a caramel sweet.
39:01
[SPEAKER_03]: Also when the mick a Saturday 6 p.m. kick off at Lucas oil stadium between the Lawrence North Wildcats coming off their impressive win over Carmel against the Ben Davis Giants and guys Lawrence North last week impressive win like I said last week.
39:17
[SPEAKER_03]: They are one half away from me and the number one team in the state.
39:21
[SPEAKER_03]: They've of course led Brownsburg at the half in week one and they've been doing it mostly without montion sales who only has two catches for 12 yards this year.
39:30
[SPEAKER_03]: because he has been out with a back injury.
39:32
[SPEAKER_03]: We don't even know if he's gonna play, but I still expect Lawrence North to win this one going away.
39:39
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'll take Lawrence North.
39:43
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, too much offense for Lawrence North.
39:44
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll take them as well.
39:47
[SPEAKER_01]: LN beats BD.
39:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Add, LOS.
39:53
[SPEAKER_03]: On SATURDAY.
40:00
[SPEAKER_03]: Good guy, that's good.
40:05
[SPEAKER_03]: The big game in the mid-state conference is four and one Decatur Central at four and one playing field.
40:12
[SPEAKER_03]: Both teams unbeaten in the conference.
40:15
[SPEAKER_03]: This one is going to have a conference implications and ranking implications.
40:22
[SPEAKER_03]: Of course, Decatur Central has been a state power move up to six a and
40:27
[SPEAKER_03]: I think this one's a toss-up.
40:29
[SPEAKER_03]: The Sagger and Ratings has playing field by four and a half.
40:34
[SPEAKER_03]: And I've been keeping my eyes on this playing field team and they can really throw the ball, but I'm just not sure they can beat Decatur Central.
40:42
[SPEAKER_03]: Give me the Hawks.
40:44
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I give me Decatur Central too.
40:46
[SPEAKER_00]: I just like they're a traditional power and I think that experience plays a role in close games, give me Decatur Central.
41:01
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, this is going to be another one.
41:02
[SPEAKER_02]: It's going to be one of those really close games on Friday night.
41:05
[SPEAKER_02]: And I always think it's hard to pick a road team.
41:10
[SPEAKER_02]: It gave me to take the cater centralness as well.
41:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Grant, here's your chance.
41:17
[SPEAKER_01]: It is my chance, but I'm not going to take it.
41:20
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to stick with the cater central.
41:21
[SPEAKER_01]: This seems to be more of a way up here.
41:24
[SPEAKER_01]: They've been a good team.
41:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Plainfield's been good.
41:27
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll take the hawks.
41:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Makes me want to change my pick.
41:33
[SPEAKER_03]: T-bad.
41:37
[SPEAKER_03]: On the other end of the mid-state conference, it is winless whiteland against winless martensville, the two teams combined for 15 wins last year, and whiteland won a sectional championship.
41:50
[SPEAKER_03]: Hard to believe both teams are winless, I don't think either team is going to end the season winless, they've played really tough schedules to start the year.
41:56
[SPEAKER_03]: Martensville had their chance against Bedford early in the year, but since then has just played really tough competition.
42:03
[SPEAKER_03]: Same with Whiteland who was blown out last week, surprisingly, by Perry Meridian.
42:09
[SPEAKER_03]: So I'm going to take Martensville, but I don't like it either way.
42:12
[SPEAKER_03]: Sager and rating says Martensville by 1.2, and it's going to be that close.
42:16
[SPEAKER_03]: Give me the artisans.
42:19
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I was going to say.
42:20
[SPEAKER_00]: Greg, give me the artisans.
42:21
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I mentioned that it seemed weird, but we could go to see them without a win.
42:26
[SPEAKER_00]: And I think this week, it seems weird to see Martin's Bill without a win.
42:30
[SPEAKER_00]: So I think the artisans get their first one, this Friday.
42:36
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, I'm going to go with white when I think it's going to be a really close game, but give me white linens in this one.
42:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Kevin's going rogue.
42:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Whenever I go through Martinville, it just reminds me I'm one town close to the Bloomington.
42:49
[SPEAKER_01]: Give me the art teach and it's baby.
42:53
[SPEAKER_01]: And you talk about it.
42:54
[SPEAKER_00]: I will say this, why it might have a better crack because most martesville might be in Bloomington Friday night.
43:01
[SPEAKER_03]: That's right.
43:02
[SPEAKER_03]: Is a huge, who's your base right there?
43:06
[SPEAKER_03]: And way up in the North East, eight conference, we have the Huntington North Vikings from Central Indiana.
43:12
[SPEAKER_03]: Man, they do a lot of travel into that conference.
43:15
[SPEAKER_03]: Vikings are three and two to Calb, also three and two.
43:19
[SPEAKER_03]: The barons started three and oh before, back to back losses to East Noble and Columbia City.
43:26
[SPEAKER_03]: Huntington North also lost to East Noble and Columbia City, coming off a 497 win over Belmont
43:34
[SPEAKER_03]: Sager and rating says to cow by seven point three, but I really believe in this hunting to North Vikings team to the point.
43:42
[SPEAKER_03]: I've already lost a point on them, but last year, Christian Jimison ran for 200 yards or so on the cow, then I think he and Nathan James are going to do it again for the Vikings.
43:53
[SPEAKER_03]: They're going to pull off the upset way up there in Auburn, give me hunting to North.
44:00
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I think even to Calb more of a basketball school when it comes to the state of Indiana and Cliff Hawkins had a really long time coaching success up to Calb and a former student up there's the one who donated a kidney to him.
44:18
[SPEAKER_00]: So in honor of Cliff, I am gonna take to Calb.
44:23
[SPEAKER_02]: That's right.
44:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Hey Michelle, this is the little fun fact for Cliff Hawkins first years at the Calb
44:30
[SPEAKER_02]: I was playing for Fremont my senior year high school.
44:32
[SPEAKER_02]: We knocked him off on their home floor.
44:34
[SPEAKER_02]: The sectional semi finals.
44:36
[SPEAKER_02]: So that was the tough one for him this fall.
44:38
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm sure.
44:40
[SPEAKER_02]: Having said that my parents live in all of my dad finished and retired from the cow.
44:44
[SPEAKER_02]: The parents are much improved this year.
44:46
[SPEAKER_02]: They gave each note.
44:47
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, all they wanted last week.
44:48
[SPEAKER_02]: The cow's defense is good.
44:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Baring at home.
44:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I know Mr. Health for his done some studying up there.
44:57
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure they've got a deep bench at the Calb.
45:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think it'll be deep enough for Huntington North.
45:03
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't think they'll be able to sub-dance and some good players compared to Huntington North.
45:08
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll take the Vikings to beat the Calb.
45:09
[SPEAKER_01]: And that sounded really stupid.
45:10
[SPEAKER_01]: It sounded better in my head, but I'm still picking Huntington North.
45:11
[SPEAKER_01]: 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
45:24
[SPEAKER_03]: Love it a grant you should listen to me on this when the Vikings are winning that game up an Auburn by the way shout out to Dave Benson A native of Auburn who good friend the month since you guys all have connections up there And another non-conference game is one enforcing and doing at unbeaten haggers tunnel
45:47
[SPEAKER_03]: Looks like a mismatch on paper, but it is certainly not, as Michelle mentioned in our recap this week.
45:53
[SPEAKER_03]: Shenandoah always good.
45:54
[SPEAKER_03]: They've moved to a conference where the schedule is much, much tougher, so unusual seeing Shenandoah one and four, but they are a good one and four.
46:03
[SPEAKER_03]: Egg your stone coming off winds over Union County and Cambridge City, probably not a great five and oh.
46:10
[SPEAKER_03]: And I'm taking Shenandoah to pull off the upset on the road, Michelle.
46:15
[SPEAKER_00]: I agree with Greg.
46:16
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Shenandoah schedule has been tougher and will prepare them.
46:21
[SPEAKER_00]: Hager's town those kids after those two big wins may be thinking they're really good offensively, but I just Shenandoah traditionally is just always had a good football program.
46:32
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going with the Raiders.
46:42
[SPEAKER_02]: And this is a tough one.
46:44
[SPEAKER_02]: I'm going to go with Shannon does.
46:46
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, when we write that train that you guys have started it falls you.
46:49
[SPEAKER_02]: I may be the caboose.
46:52
[SPEAKER_01]: This is a fun fact.
46:53
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe Kevin is this I got no idea, but good buddy of mine.
46:58
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if he's a buddy, but he's a guy I've called games with these a guy I have.
47:02
[SPEAKER_01]: I've known for a long time at O'Kill's name's Flavis Thurkey.
47:06
[SPEAKER_01]: He's be the basketball coach at O'Kill.
47:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Got him to swim my state one year.
47:12
[SPEAKER_01]: He started his coaching career off at Shannon Doha, coaching football.
47:16
[SPEAKER_01]: That makes me want to take the Raiders.
47:17
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'll take Shannon Doha to knock off.
47:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Hey, yours town on Friday night.
47:23
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm really stunned that we had a Shannon Doha sweep.
47:25
[SPEAKER_03]: I thought I might be the only one on that one as well.
47:29
[SPEAKER_03]: strange away sagrances hagers town by zero point six points.
47:35
[SPEAKER_03]: All right, thanks so much guys Michelle Grant and Kevin final thoughts heading in the week six.
47:42
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, for me, it's I can't believe we're at week six already in the after, um, Friday night.
47:48
[SPEAKER_00]: We only have three more weeks left of the regular season.
47:51
[SPEAKER_03]: So it, uh, We're gonna play off bracket soon.
47:57
[SPEAKER_02]: I will not be at a high school football game.
47:59
[SPEAKER_02]: It's probably I'll be down in Georgia waiting the Oklahoma at Georgia game.
48:03
[SPEAKER_02]: So I'll be able to follow these games on my phone more closely this weekend.
48:07
[SPEAKER_02]: I'll highlight the ones that I'm different than these top leaders.
48:09
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't think I have to worry about Grant too much.
48:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow.
48:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Yep.
48:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm at a game.
48:16
[SPEAKER_01]: I'll be doing a game with an 88 year old man who's sharper than Kevin ever has been.
48:22
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm looking forward to it.
48:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It'll be fun.
48:25

[SPEAKER_00]: Doomsday, I can't believe you're one of those naysayers.
49:12
[SPEAKER_00]: Bye guys.
49:12
[SPEAKER_03]: He's just a doomsdayer, he's one of those people.
49:16
[SPEAKER_03]: Everything's gonna go bad and when it doesn't, it's grand and he's just one of the way he looks at things.
49:23
[SPEAKER_01]: I've been so disappointed with so many things in my life.
49:26
[SPEAKER_01]: My dad told me we were gonna win a sectional bath to ball game one year and we ended up getting upset and I've never recovered and it's just given me a lot of trauma.
49:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I try to, I, uh, in the back of my mind, I got a good feeling of what's going to happen down there Friday, but you know, it's kind of part of my stick.
49:45
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, it's what I've always done.
49:46
