    Midwest Athletic Conference 2024

    Wapak would have loved a second home playoff game this year and obviously would love two next year, and I am sure that is some of the thought that goes into it. There is plenty to be gained; but being so focused on the first game of the season and then losing has its drawbacks also.

    Midwest Athletic Conference 2024

    Wapak has been very good the last three years, I think they truly believed they could win that game all three years, and definitely the last two. I understand Minster competes in a scrimmage, but that is different than an actual game. I’m sure those in charge didn’t schedule those games if they...

    Midwest Athletic Conference 2024

    Really a tough situation for Wapak, you are better beating a larger school that may only win a few games than possibly losing again to a D7. I know for a fact that Wapak put a ton of emphasis on that game the last two years and came up short. Not enough to be gained to go through it again.

    Who are the Yappi Football Top Posters?

    theVoice - all time troll, but actually knows what he is talking about. StateChampion - I always think of him as the Grandpa of MAC posters, he’s probably younger than me. BigKat - Minster homer MAC861(or something like that) - accused me of being a bully!!

    Division VII State Final Marion Local vs Dalton

    Just to be clear, this isn’t the college or pros, coaches aren’t being offered multimillion dollar offers to move. Even the best, or highest paying jobs are not that much better or better paying than another. So why wouldn’t you stay at a place you feel comfortable, win consistently and don’t...

    Division VII State Final Marion Local vs Dalton

    Sometimes it’s a momentum or matchup, but sometimes it tells a bigger story! I thought the Versailles v Kirkland game would be close and wouldn’t be surprised by either team winning. But it certainly doesn’t feel that way, maybe the MAC is quite as strong as I thought??

    Division VII State Final Marion Local vs Dalton

    This seems to be an ongoing narrative on this forum. So I have now watched the Caldwell, Norwalk St Paul and Lucas games. I stand by my prediction, I really don’t think Dalton can keep this game close. Take the NSP game for example, the game was within one score with 4 minutes left in the third...

    Division VII State Final Marion Local vs Dalton

    My question? Is Dalton considerably better than the MAC opponent in the state finals the last three years?? Because this Marion team is as good or better than what the MAC has had in the D7 game the last three years. 2020 - JFK 9-2 entering the finals with losses to DV Garfield and DIII Howland...

    Division VII State Final Marion Local vs Dalton

    I have heard this several times on here so I decided to do just that and watched the Dalton v Caldwell game. I watched the whole thing and then re-watched the first quarter and a half. I will start by saying I am a fan of the MAC, but would not consider myself a Flyer fan by any stretch of the...

    Division VII State Final Marion Local vs Dalton

    The eye test tells me they are top 5-7 all time.

    Division VII State Final Marion Local vs Dalton

    I will say in the two D7 State Championships that New Bremen won their opponent in the finals was probably the 4th best team they played in the playoffs and 7or 8th best they saw all season. So it is conceivable that the same is true this year.

    I thought it was a beer you got at the Korner, when taking the long way to the Tavern?

    Western Buckeye League 2023

    The thing is, what you do on Friday night really matters very little. It’s how you show in the summer and at college camps that gets you offers. Look at the tightend Houser, if you based it on production he would not be a D1 prospect, but he has the size and speed they see what he can do at...

    Division VII State Final Marion Local vs Dalton

    Bremen had over 60 on that team, probably close to 40 Juniors and Seniors, that makes a huge difference. As for this game - I know the winds of change can come fast in High School football, since you are basically turning over your Varsity roster every couple of years. That being said, I have...

    Midwest Athletic Conference 2023

    Do you keep this in a Word doc. somewhere and just copy and paste? I think you give the same lesson every year. You are 100% correct, but I think at this point I would prefer a full round robin with just 1 OOC.

    Region 28 Final: Marion Local vs Ansonia

    I don’t forget that at all, New Bremen definitely caught a couple breaks in that game. I think by the letter of the rule that was probably the right call on targeting, but agree that that’s a one in a thousand call and probably shouldn’t have been called. I think the biggest thing about that...

    I wasn’t sure if he was from there. I would agree probably not going anywhere. Nothing better than leading your hometown to the promise land.
