Was hoping to see Ignatius play last night to do some comparisons.
Anyone care to offer opinions?

Was hoping same. Honestly zero idea what to expect, could see a close game or Cats could get blastedWas hoping to see Ignatius play last night to do some comparisons.

Didn't get enough pregame yesterday to know for sure. Sat down at 620 and under stands by 625Anybody have any idea who the starting QB will be?
You cannot use the common opponent prediction strategy when St. Ignatius and Mentor play.I think Ignatius will be fine this Friday despite not seeing live action last night. Mentor didn't look as good in the pits as in years past, and some debatable flags in the McKinley game went their way.
Ignatius did give up some bombs against McKinley in a scrimmage, but other than the deep ball they really shut down the Pups. So, if you trust the common opponent test, Cats roll.
Having watched this series I would never predict anyone is going to roll. My gut says a closer lower scoring game. If it is higher scoring, mentor wins. If cats win, it would be defense leading the way. But again, we don't have a clear picture as cats were playing a bunch of guys in the scrimmageI think Ignatius will be fine this Friday despite not seeing live action last night.

The questionable flags stuff is only coming from a few homer McKinley fans. Most of them even acknowledge that the right call was made ...but you'll get that from a fanbase whenever they lose .I think Ignatius will be fine this Friday despite not seeing live action last night.

I hope you come back after the game with some after thoughts.Ignatius 28 Mentor 14. I don’t see Mentor moving the ball well against Iggy defense. Special teams advantage also goes to Iggy and should help them win the field position battle and give them some short fields.
I don’t think Fox will be overwhelmed by the game though as he did play against a tough St. Eds defense last year among others. I just don’t think Mentor has the firepower this year to handle a good Iggy defense.
No one has any idea about the quality of the Ignatius defense. The McKinley game saw the defensive backs occasionally playing in different time zones. This is a young, inexperienced team with many new coaches. It's going to take time to get to get the coordination down. The cancellation makes Mentor a prohibitive favorite.Ignatius 28 Mentor 14.

Didn’t the Mentor Safety also get hurt on Friday night? What is his status?No one has any idea about the quality of the Ignatius defense.

I suspect Iggies will be able to handle a down Mentor team. Mentor schedule is much softer than in years past. Time will tell. Iggies schedule is brutal and not playing last week should help Mentor stay in the game early until Iggies gets settled in. Not the type of hype as years past.
Shouldn't you be out recruiting middle school kids or something ?I suspect Iggies will be able to handle a down Mentor team. Mentor schedule is much softer than in years past. Time will tell.

CorrectThe same "down" Mentor team that put 34 on McKinley?
You really should seek help. You bring up Ed's for what reason? This is a post regarding the upcoming game. Ed's is living in your head. Grow up. This is a forum.Shouldn't you be out recruiting middle school kids or something ?
Mentor is a closed enrollment publics school. There will be ups and downs. Can't recruit in 7 counties where there will always be talent like St Eds.
