Any Highschool Players/Fans around?

Your luck that your not in 3A, Cuase the class 3A has some power houses in there. Watch out boys and girls.

[riverrat56]

What's that supposed to mean, there is reason for the classes, it wouldn't really be fair for a 1A school with 190 kids in it to play against a school with 350-500 kids would it?

The class system acts like a salary cap would in pro sports, it keeps the compition on a more even level.

And BTW there is power houses in every class.

[bassNspear]

You act like i have no clue what im talking about. I can tell you this. I know whats going on when it comes to high school football. I understand the classes and the powerhouses, but from the way i look at it, when i was there playing, we were a 3A school, and everyone said that we could have beaten everyone in the state. So you can think what you want, but im pretty sure i understand that high school rules and classes. Good Luck

Sweet... gotta love the banter! All I know is that I'm living here in Lakeville and we just beat perennial powerhouse Cretin Derham Hall and are on our way to state! Could our 5A team compete with those 3A jaugernauts? So who is the best team in the state?

[sdstate]

Every year there are 1A teams that can compete with any of the classes out there. Like riverrat said you really cant say that a 1A team is that much worse than 3A team. They really arent comparable. Its like the Yankees playing there minor leaugue team. Yes many times they are gonna win but they are suppose to. Oh and by the way riverrat Im from wabasso. As you prolly already know we spanked Barnum 30 sumtin to zero and now we got rushford. My brother starts the offensive and defensive line (Tackle both ways. He went to the Springfield game and said it was a very sloppy game. Lots of fumbles and bad plays. So yes we are dome bound. Good luck to you and we hope to see you in the finals where Im sure you guys will be playing for some payback.

[riverrat56]

sdstate, what number is your bro? I'm sure I squared off with him during our game, I was still playing both ways during that game, now I only play offence because I broke my shoulder socket and tore a ligament, and I seem to agravate it to much on D. I also played Tackle both ways, gotta love working the trenches.

I'd love to meet Wabasso again in the Dome, too bad Springfeild didn't pull it out, it would have been great to have three teams from our confrence in the semi's.

I'm sure if Wabasso wins and we win it will be a battle in the Dome, we're both completly differnt teams than when we first met, our heads were a little too big after beating Springfeild the week before and now Wabasso has found its stride and is putting up lots of points.

[sdstate]

My bro is number 55. He doesnt play as much defense as offense but lately they have been running a 6-2 on defense to stop the runs. They plan on running that against Rushford again so hopefully it works. My bro has been to the dome 3 times in his high school career. He was a freshmen when i was a senior and we went to the dome and last year they went to the dome. So this will be his third time. Hopefully they break the curse. GOOD LUCK

[riverrat56]

Good luck to your brother tomorrow, we pulled it off today winning 14-7 over Fertile-Beltrami, hopefully they can win as well and then finally the Souther MN confrence can get some respect with a team winning it all 2 years in a row and rematch of a week 4 game in the finals. I wouldn't get any better than that.

BTW you don't play football at SDSU do you? I went to a camp out there two years in a row, very very good time.

[sdstate]

Unfortunately Wabasso's run is over. We were definately overmatched. We were not a huge team and they had some absolute bruits. We ended up losing 22-6. There was definately some controvercial calls and we lost a few good guys to injury early in the game. Our quarterback played the game but they found out he broke his wrist. They are a very good running team but if you can get them into a throwing situation you will be golden. Good luck to NUC and beat for us. ps I do not play football out at SDSU but they are having a decent season. After losing there first three games i think they have won every one straight. Where do u plan on going to college? Good Luck!!!

Speaking of Bruts!! It's my Lakeville South team vs perennial favorite Eden Prairie. It's always nice when the best two teams in the state get to face each other in the final game. Here's the story...

With 22 returning starters and a third-year starting quarterback, Lakeville South wasn't going to panic in Friday's Class 5A semifinal game at the Metrodome.

The experience would pay off as the undefeated Cougars (13-0) survived a scare from Rosemount (10-3) to win 17-14, advancing to next week's Prep Bowl.

Down 14-10 in the fourth quarter, Lakeville South quarterback Marcus Brumm maneuvered in the pocket long enough to find a wide-open Kevin Lundeen on a 4-yard touchdown pass to score the game-winner with 10:14 left in the game.

From there, the Cougar defense would tighten up. The Irish would have three more possessions, but Lakeville South's defense wouldn't allow Rosemount to cross the 50-yard line again. Rosemount's final threat would end on an interception by the Cougars' Joe Everson.

Brumm went 13-for-26 passing for 135 yards and the one touchdown.

With the victory, Lakeville South will finally get to play Lake Conference foe Eden Prairie. The two teams shared the Lake Conference title this season, but did not meet during the regular season. The also-unbeaten Eagles (13-0) defeated St. Cloud Tech 49-7 on Thursday in the first 5A semifinal.

Buzzsaw, enjoy it for another week because LVS will get beat by multiple TD's. I personally can't stand EP, but there are by far the best and will win.

[buzzsaw]

I don't doubt that EP will win, but I'd say LVS would beat anybody else hands down in the state. I also don't think multiple TD's is accurate as LVS has a great defense.

[Toby]

It hurts to watch eden prairie win against St cloud tech. For tech is the team who beat us by a last second field goal in the second round. We should have beat tech. If we did we would have been the ones playing in the dome. So close, eh? Theres always next year.

[PierBridge]

Lakeville South will probably Win It......

[buzzsaw]

I forgot to ask who Muskylovers team was, he seemed pretty knowledgable... just curious who he followed all year.

[lawdog]

Hey looks like my Luverne Cardinals face a real wrecking machine in the prepbowl against this Triton squad, but they may just be a team of destiny this year... What a run they are on.

GO CARDS!

[bassNspear]

whos going to win 5a, 4a and 3a?

[walleyefisher0990]

The 5a championship game is gonna be a great one. Im still in awe that Lakeville South came back in the 2nd half to beat Cretin. I think though that Eden Prarie is gonna win it.

[bassNspear]

I guess your not exactly a great football mind eh?! It was a 7 point game and really could have gone either way...

Glencoe-Silver Lake Panthers, 2006 3a State Champs!!!

GSL 42 Becker 20

[bassNspear]

Ya, they started off slow, but pulled it out. I saw that GSL 2000 team was ranked #4 all time in the state!! They were Amazing

[waterfowl74]

we have started out slow in most of our games, it just takes a while for us to get goin. we always have good second halfs because we are a platoon team, no one goes both ways, 11 start on offense-11 start on defense, so were fresh when everyone else is tired. I think the 2000 team should have been ranked higher.

[bassNspear]

Why higher?
