Weekend Forum: Talk Georgia HS Football State Championships LIVE!

With all due respect Mr. Carvell here is why Starr’s Mill will be the AAAA Champ by 11:00 p.m. tonight.

Size matters
Starr’s Mill OL
6′5″ 230 lbs.
6′7″ 270 lbs.
6′ 250 lbs.
6′ 283 lbs.
5′11″ 305 lbs.

Chattahoochee Front Six
DE 6′1″ 215 lbs.
NG 6′2″ 235 lbs.
DE 5′11″ 207 lbs.
LB 6′ 188 lbs.
LB 6′2″ 185 lbs.
LB 5′11″ 187 lbs.

Hooch is vunerable to the run. Starr’s Mill will control the clock via the run (passing enough to keep ‘em honest) to keep the Hooch QB off of the field as much as possible. Hooch will be worn down by the second half as long as Starr’s Mill does not turn it over which they have been very good at this year. Starr’s Mill is just too physical up front.

Kudos to the Hooch QB for 30 TD’s vs. 2 picks on the year which is very impressive. His contribution will be contained by keeping him on the sidelines.

Good luck to all. Congrats to all of the players for both teams. Hope for injury free play on both sides & a safe trip home.

@Just the Facts. Now the rest of the facts. You neglected to list the Hooch offensive line. By the weigh, they average 270 lbs across the line with a couple of 300lber’s. Hooch’s defensive line has been outweighed all year. still 14-0, soon to be 15-0. Chattahoocheee will find a way to win the game. GO HOOCH !!

Calhoun will upset Buford. Calhoun has been underestimated all season long. Everyone assumed there would be a let down with D1 recruits Darrick Rodgers and Nash Nance leaving. They have become a “team” in the truest since of the word. Now you must pick your poison carefully: QB Landon Curtis, RB Dustin Christian, or WR JT Palmer. It seems as if they just reload each season…….

When I was there, Brookwood owned the dome and Cruise was just starting out as HC. Brookwood takes the trophy 45 minutes north on I-85 back to Snellville on Saturday night. Should be a good game, have always had respect for Colquitt, way more than Camden which I’ve seen play on a few occasions. And the rest of the South Georgia teams couldn’t find class if they went back inside the school building. Bunch of rednecks and thugs. Seen it both on the field and in the stands. That means all y’all in Lowndes. Happy to see what Colquitt brings to the Dome, because we sure are tired of the rest of the folks acting like they ain’t never been there before. It is high school football, after all…

I am glad my Packers are playing for the state title, but the absolute best team I saw all year was the Valdosta Wildcats. I don’t know what happened to them against Grayson other than a lot of turnovers. The Grayson team I witnessed had no business beating the Valdosta team we face in week ten. Valdosta was loaded and well coached. I didn’t want to play them again if they had beaten Grayson. Go PACK!

Why is the state wasting money by playing state championships in the dome? It would be nice if they played in a smaller stadium where it actually looks like there is someone there.

Hard to tell sometimes, but from looking at 3 halfs of football so far tonight, I’d put Buford and Calhoun up against both these AAAA teams, and I bet I’d come out a winner favoring AA. But maybe this half was a bad half for both AAAA teams.

Going way back to the comments of “Just the Facts” at 1:28 P.M. this afternoon.
Every point you made is going in reverse. I guess Hooch contained your sizable OL. It was Starrs Mill’s quarterback that was kept on the sidelines. Hooch controlled the clock. Hooch stopped the S.M.’s run and actually ran all over them. Starrs Mill’s defense was the one that looke tired from being out there so long, and I can go on and on. Not one of your facts became a factor in this game. So I guess Hooch will be AAAA champ by 11:00 P.M. tonight. Oh by the way it wasn’t even close, that “DONUT” looks good. One more thing, I’m not even a Hooch fan.

I have completely given up picking games this season; except that Buford almost always seems to take care of business. So I will go for Buford. BTW, Darius Walker lived in the Collins Hill district. Just another example of Buford taking care of business.

I am tempted to pick Chattahoochee.

Hey! Lokk at that! 2 for 2.

It seems like CC is on a roll, but so is Brookwood. They have the Div 1 thing going for them, but they have been beaten by 4 teams that are not as good as Brookwood. Who knows? This seems to be the year where the underdog comes out ahead. And I am not even sure who is the underdog in this game?

It will probably be exciting football regardless of the winner.

Used to be Titletown Fan: There are no dark clouds hanging over Grayson. All the way to the Semi’s the year AFTER several key players graduated. Amazingly neither Buford or Chattahoochee play in the all powerfull south ga regions. Maybe Savannah or Colquitt can bail you out. I would have loved it for Grayson to make the finals, but will have to settle for traveling to Valdosta and watching their fans sit on their hands in shock then leave early.

Sounds Bitter But…

R the AA and AAAA State Championships really just a battle of the GHSA rules abusers?

AA – Buford wins 5thchampionship playing in AA as a “public school” while accepting players from all over the state who pay $1000 to “become a Buford citizen” and play ball! How many Buford boyz live in Buford – maybe 50%.

AAAA – Chattahoocheee – a well coached team who was destined for a run at state after moving from 5A to 4A. Their chances improved greatly when 2 key senior players move from Northview HS as seniors – #5 Whitehurst and #22 Gregory along with two other Northview kids. O and their star Freshman RB Chase Nelson lives out of district in North Fulton.

Next up the superstar rule violaters – 5A and 1A teams. Private schools who abuse the A and AAAAA super schools.

Love it.

I don’t understand the controversy about Buford attracting so many good players. Is it illegal? Back in the day, my HS payed 25% of my tuition and my elementary school payed another 60% for me to play baseball and football at my chosen HS. There was no legal issue. 3/4 of my teammates were subsidized and we received a great education.

There is no best team in the state of Georgia this year. Just a lot of good teams…….but no great team or teams. There will be teams left standing at the end of the year who can say they were the best and call themselves State Champs but this year has been a matter of who happened to be playing the best ball on any given week.

Doesn’t discount a state Championship however. A State Championship is a State Championship and the team left standing deserves it.

Go Pack!!!

Grayram I enjoyed that frown on your face when your qback couldn’t keep his back side brushed off in the 4th quarter in what was your last game of the year handed to you by a team that lost to two teams from Titletown. What goes around comes around. Especiially this year, see beginning of post.

Nick Hyder…I am not up on the HS rules. Is the classification determined by the size of the school or the the size of the city, county that the school is located. If players and their parents are willing to put up with the travel requirement, should that decision not fall to the families involed? HS kids in Canada live hundreds of miles from their homes to play on the HS hockey team of their choice. It is no big deal but it is a hardship the parents are willing to accept. Yet I don’t see kids in Brunswick, Ga deciding to play for a HS in Rome, Ga. Putting your children in what amounst to foster care to play sports is just not the way we do things here in the States. But a 30 or 40 mile commute is not out of the question if the families sign off on it. Your thoughts!

@ Hit A Single … Buford City Schools … We live 15 mins away in Forsyth County.

For Non-resident students – applications are completed and tuition costs $2000 per year. There is a cutoff of how many kids are accepted and we applied several years ago – our son was accepted, but we chose to go to the new high school in Forsyth – Lambert!

I think many kids from Gwinnett, Hall, and Forsyth go here with some moving in. One reason is that historically Forsyth county football has been terrible, but this year 4 of the 5 high schools made the playoffs – coaching is the best I’ve seen ever in this area. #41 @ Buford is 6′-5″, 235# junior out of Lambert district as well as a couple of others. Why would parents do this? Because they feed from at least 3 counties – they should play up at AAAA or even AAAAA with the talent they get.

Public school, but private as well – a great question would be – how many males are accepted each year to the school, then how many play football? We will never know

poor.ole.lambert…..good info. The amount of male players to male students would be reasonably high don’t you believe? I still don’t understand the controversy. In my HS classification it was never intended to be kept a secret. It was common knowledge and published regularly in the newspapers where kids were going and the amount their elementary school was willing to pay for that privledge. (ranged from 60% to 75% based on what the AD at your elementary school could afford) But the HS always kicked in 25%. It was important to me and my parents that I play with the best competition and also received a great education. Keeping the cost down was important and the HS and elementary schools saw to that, thank goodness.

2010 AAAA State Chamionship for football has come home to Chattahoochee High School!!!

I do want to give my congratulations to the Starr’s Mill Panthers’ players, coaches, fans, faculty and staff on an amazing season. You have an amazing football team and coaching staff and that you have nothing to hold your head about. Best of luck to your seniors as they move onto the future endeavors and to the underclassmen I have a a great bit of advice for you:

“Next year starts today.”

I had a coach tell us that many years ago and even though it is a simple statement it allows you to start planning now and working to make the next year even better.

————————————————————————————————————————————————-

The game last night was simply amazing and the Cougars controlled the entire game. This group of seniors had a vision back in the Spring and came up with a list of accomplishments they wanted to fulfill for the 2010 season:

1. Make the Playoffs
2. Win Region
3. 10-0
4. Win First Round of Playoffs
5. Play a South Georgia Team
6. State Champions

There was only one item to check off the list and #6 was crossed off the list last night!! The cheerleaders at school had made a banner that had the list one it and posted it in the cafeteria early in the week. There was a celebration at school and the banner was brought out with a paintbrush and Coach Crowder checked off the last item himself!! It as a great evening to top off an equally amazing season. 15 straight wins ALL WITHOUT A WEEK OFF!! (Hooch’s bye week was the first week of the season….)

Congratulations to Coach Crowder, Carmichael, Corbett, Satterfield, Strine, Davis, Mahfouz, Carroll, Linsley, Wiley, Fusco, and Taylor on an amazing season!!

Congratulations to the seniors and I know that many of you are heading to play football in college and hope that the recruitment process goes well! My advice about the recruitment process is to take all the offers, look closely what is best for YOU, go to sleep and when you wake up the next morning look yourself in the mirror and say “I am going to ________________ to play football.” You will make the right choice…..trust me

Underclassmen, just like stated earlier to Starr’s Mill: NEXT YEAR SEASON STARTS TODAY AS WELL!! You now have a bullseye on your back because you will be the DEFENDING STATE CHAMPIONS when you take the field in 2011.

I am truly honored to be apart of that school and enjoy every minute of everyday I get to be there!!

————————————————————————————————————————————————-

To all the other bloggers on here I have enjoyed this season of posting with you, jawing back and forth, and following another year of high school football.

I hope that everyone enjoys the rest of the weekend and the three remaining games that are scheduled for today.

Merry Christmas to everyone and have a Happy New Year!!

not a single person in carrollton has a full set of teeth.

Half of carrollton is on welfare but
The Sandy Creek Patriots don’t really care.

We live in Fayette Co and receive bigger paychecks and
the people from carrollton are bunch inbreds without necks.

The trojan fans though are lucky they can hitch up their moblie homes
and bring everything they own with them to the Dome.

Win or lose Trojans just remeber to take a deep breath before
you know it you wil back in carrollton to finish doing your meth.

I haven’t read every post, so I don’t know if anyone else has posted about this problem. Last night after the Calhoun-Buford game, security directed the exiting fans toward the same doors where all the Chattahoochee and Starrs Mill fans were coming in. It took about 35 minutes to get out, not to mention all of the pushing and shoving. If there had been any type of emergency, such as a fire, a lot of people would have been injured.

Next year I hope security personnel do a better job of routing the fans between games.

Calhoun – great game yesterday. You have great team, program and fans. You should be very proud as I am sure you are. Lat year and this year a play or two different and you are back to back champions and some of these pinheads on this site are calling you cheaters.

First my kids do go to Buford. They are in the 3rd and 5th grades. We live in Gwinnett County but not in Buford. We are about 15 min from the schools. My kids already play rec sports for Buford. Like most of the tuition students they are at Buford because of the academics and the high expectations for all of their students to excell at the three A’s (Academics, Arts, Athletics). They are there because the High School is 700 students total (thus the AA clasification) vs Mill Creek which is 3,500 students. And we like it small so thats not changing. The kids that they go to school with today will be the kids they will graduate with not get moved to another school when another is built and a line moves. They will play sports with the same kids every year for the next 10 years. How many High School Head coach’s have EVER shown up at an 7 yr old practice to talk to the kids and encourage them? How many elementary schools have had High School players show up for a pep rally. Sure does not feel like cheating when our kids are showing up for speed camps and football camps all summer starting at 7 years old. Looks a whole lot more like desire and want. They know from that age that they are playing for their team, family and community when they put on that uniform. Funny thing is that when you ask a student or parent what they like about Buford or why their kids go to Buford there are a lot of things they will tell you before they get to athletics / sports. We have had lots of our kids friends who do not attend Buford ask us about it and we have never said anything about winning on Friday nights. Its all about the scool and the community.

For those of you haters that will never get it. Get used to it because we are not going anywhere. For the others good luck and we look forward the competition.

Go Wolves!!

Make their choice for them! Impose your will as we did and bring #8 back to the field house tonight.

@ Jason: refs were the worst, you are correct.

However, there were horrible missed calls on both sides and embarrassing penalty assessments that aided the Jackets on several occasions. Most fans agree that they were awful, but hardly created the outcome. Calhoun has a great coach, team and fans. Please don’t let your disappointment sound like sour grapes. Most all Buford fans I talked to today have the utmost respect for your Jackets and were just glad to see such a hard-fought game.

A couple of years ago, I watched Propst call a timeout in Tifton just to chew out the referees after he thought a call didn’t go his way. The Packers completely unraveled as Propst quit thinking about strategy and continued to mull over a call that wasn’t going to change and was over and done with.

Propst is going to build a cult-like status in Moultrie, if he hasn’t already. He’ll have the entire county convinced that every referee, every opposing coach, even the administrators are out to get him. They’re not, but he’ll have his minions convinced.

This is as close as he’ll come to a title. He should put up another good year next year, then it will start to unravel and it will do so quite messily.

How do I know? We had a Propst by another name. He coached boys’ basketball. If anybody from the Valdosta Association is hanging around this evening, they can probably name that tune in two notes. It’s been nearly 10 years since we had him, but he left quite the memory … and nearly two years of probation as he pulled one of the most unsportsmanlike stunts I’ve ever seen in a game against Pierce County. It wasn’t anything against Pierce, but an attempt to show up referees.

Hooch will NOT be a contender next year! I don’t care if they have Bo Jackson and Herschel Walker — no o-line, passing game will struggle, no kicker, defense losing big time players, and special teams will have no spark. Hooch will go 7-3 next year, make playoff, and lose in first round!

Been watching the games on TV since I couldn’t go due to illness. I have to say, GPB has done an excellent job! My only complaint has been that rotating logo that shatters into a hundred pieces when they come back live after a replay. It has gotten a little old and sometimes is not out of the way when the next play starts up. A pretty small complaint for almost 12 hours of watching.

Colquitt was just as scary to play against as they said they were going to be. No question. Well coached too. But sometimes, one beats themselves. But one way or the other, it is the performance on the field. Some can moan and groan about what might have been. What matters is what really was happening on the field.

Had to watch this game on the web from Philadelphia where another class act, Navy, beat Army 31-17. Three players from BW played for Army. I’m sure if those three players were from Region 1, there are those that would insist Army would have won. Uh huh.

Nothing against North GA, but Sandy Creek does not consider itself North Georgia. We are West Central Georgia with teams like Newnan, LaGrange, Griffin, East Coweta, Starr’s Mill, Whitewater, and Carrollton. You need to be in Atlanta or north of I-20 to be North GA.

@moronic fool: We have always been a small AAAA school. We lost 250 students from the previous year which put us in AAA classification – no “appealing” involved. In retrospect, we might have preferred to stay in AAAA because it was much easier to win than AAA. Overall, the teams in AAA are tougher around the state than AAAA. We know, we have played in both recently. It would have been easier to repeat in AAAA. All of the other 4 high schools in our county are AAAA and were in the same region as us (along with Northgate in Coweta), so drives to games were great and we tended to dominate them.

If our population grows, we will move back up to AAAA. Although, I hope we stay in AAA for a while and build rivalries with awesome teams like Carrollton and Peach County.

We’ll take our small stadium, our crappy field, and our two championship rings any day over what you have. Go Creek.

You can “call” us whatever you like, but we reject the North GA label. We are West Central Georgia. There is a University of WEST Georgia in nearby Carroll County. People don’t drive to Sandy Creek to see the leaves change in the fall. If you divide the state equally into three vertically stacked regions based on population (not area), Sandy Creek would be in the middle one. People in Fayette and Coweta take long commutes to get to work. The whole North vs. South thing is stupid anyway, so that is another reason why we refuse to identify with either.

I’ve been trying to figure out a way to sum up and I guess the best way is to just say “WOW!” The season unfolded very differently than many predicted in the beginning. As several of us have said, any given night and that’s why they play the game. I like what I see in Gwinnett football. I think there will be several contenders from Gwinnett next year similar to this year. I like the rivalry between “North” and “South” and just wish everyone would recognize that all areas have their issues even if they are not the same. I think I will be going through withdrawal symptoms next week as I won’t know what to do on Friday nights!

To be honest, I must say that when I looked at the brackets and saw that BW was going to have to beat Camden, then Lowndes, then North Gwinnett. which has beaten BW the last six time they’ve played, I didn’t think BW’s chances were very good. But each team ended up losing eventually before BW played them. So remember, one would rather be lucky than good. One way or the other, it’s the results on the field tha matter, and that makes BW AAAAA Champions.

Re: Says a lot about the state of football in AAAAA this year when the state champ gives “over” 600 yards of offense in the championship game.

Says alot about a team that has ‘over 600 yards in offense’ and can only score 38 points…..and 10 were after the game was already decided and seven points after a phantom pass interference call in the end-zone. Add in each team’s return yardage and see how they compare; CC had almost none (if any) and BW did. That shortened the field for BW so they didn’t rack up the yards from scrimmage line. Plus BW had longer plays from scrimmage so they didn’t have many first downs. Learn how to analyze a game, it will open your eyes to another world of football. By the way Yo-Yo, Garden City 82-68 over Throckmorton in Texas Division I 6-man football championship.

@vikingsrule Under your logic, we could say NG would have beat Brookwood as well. We beat CH, and CH beat Loundes, and Loundes beat CC so obviously NG would have beat Loundes and thus they would have won the Championship.

None of that works. And we are not in the belief that south GA is of lower intelligence. Ever been to Gainesville, GA? KIDDING !

Brookwood won. I agree, there were 10 teams in AAAAA that could have won on any given night. You didn’t. We didn’t. CH didn’t. Camden didn’t. Grayson didn;t. Valdosta didn’t. McEachern didn’t. None of the others did.

Brookwood did. State Championship is in Gwinnett. Gwinnett is the SEC of GAHS Football. And I am not an SEC fan, but I respect the quality that they play game in and game out.

@vikingsrule, It is easy to say your team is better but the reality is Valdosta and Lowndes both lost in the quarter finals. CC was able to win. Maybe they were playing above their heads and maybe they weren’t. They were able to take on a very tough playoff schedule and win when they had to. Many people say that only championships count, not whether a team is consistently in it at the end. Using that standard, Brookwood was the best in 5-AAAAA this year with CC second and Collins Hill and Grayson 3rd or 4th. Again, this is based on the teams that were able to win when it counted, when one loss sent you home. Brookwood 5-0, CC 4-1, CH and Grayson 3-1, Hillgrove, Lowndes, Mill Creek and Valsosta 2-1, Camden 1-1.

Congratulations to Brookwood on their championship and to all the teams that kept playing into late November and December!

And I wasn’t smack talking the only reason I said anything was because someone called our players classless thugs. Im pretty sure you would agree that we are not after seeing them play their hearts out then cry when they lost. But they should hold their heads high because we are proud of them and brookwood did a good job. In the end their offense was just too much for our defense. That running back of theirs is really fast and knows where the holes are to run. And that kicker man is he good!

It’s interesting that the people on here who are claiming that their team is better than the AAAAA State Champion Brookwood Broncos all seem to be fans of teams that didn’t even make the top 4. Colquitt County fans aren’t doing much complaining. Collins Hill and Grayson fans have accepted the results. On the other hand, the south Ga fans from teams who were out of the playoffs weeks ago are still claiming that their team is better than everyone else.

Using south Ga logic, Dacula should be the state champions because Dacula is the only team to beat Brookwood, who beat Collins Hill, who beat Lowndes…and Brookwood beat Grayson, who beat Valdosta…and Brookwood beat Hillgrove who beat Camden County…and Brookwood beat Colquitt County, who beat their whole half of the playoff bracket…so Dacula must be the best.

Carrollton’s coach blew that game worse than i’ve seen any coach do something like that in a LONG time. Carrollton had three fourth down chances to kick field goals. That’s 9 points folks. The score would have been 16-14 Carrollton and would have stayed that way because Sandy Creek could not score on Carollton’s Defense. The fumble at the 1 yd line by Carrollton would have never happened because they would have had the lead and would have taken a knee to run out the clock. BAD coaching being way to prideful. Just a sorry effort by the coach. Really cheated these young men who gave everything they had.

Anyone with common sense would have kicked those three field goals. All three were well within Carrollton’s kicker’s range. Chip shots. Their coach choked in the big game, not the players. You take points anyway you can get them in the state championship game. Especially against that Sandy Creek defense. That game is still blowing my mind with the stupid coaching decisions.

Sandy Creek had three stud players….other than that they were not better than Carrollton.

@vikingsrule….WTF are you talking about…..???? You are a sore loser sir. VERY sore loser. GET over it. This year is done. Lowndes will be Lowndes. That should be enough. Brookwood won. They are the best. End of story.

@NG in the house…. Your sounding just like vikingsrule…the season is over and done. Wait for next year with the woulda, coulda, shouldas. IT’s the exact reason NG can not go all the way and win the big dance. To much overconfidence. (BTW im an NG Alum)

I am by no means a Brookwood fan, but they were the last ones standing when it was all said and done. Lowndes was not, neither was Valdosta. Obviously they were not better. No one was.

Colquitt had over 600 yds of offense to Brookwood’s 365. Brookwood scored faster and more efficientlly…thats the facts. Congrats to Brookwood for being dominate all year long. To the rest of AAAAA(myself included)…bettter luck next season.

How can people come on here and say their team was better than Brookwood. Thats like saying that for the previous two seasons that MacEachern or Grayson or Newnan or even MLK and Stephenson were better than Camden just because Camden did not play those teams in the playoffs. Bull$H1#!!! Nothing can be taken away from the Bronco’s this year. They won it ALL.

BETTER LUCK NEXT YEAR SOUTH GA!

Observer is the obvious sore loser. Carrollton lost the game. Sandy Creek played a conservative game on offense which was far different than normal and if Carrollton had converted those fourth downs it wouldn’t have been construed as bad play calling. Were it not for a blown coverage Carrollton would have been down 14-0 at the half….If ifs and buts were candies and nuts what a swell party we’d have! The best team won!! End of story.

@Tracker 185 If even half of the Trojans are coming back next year, I believe you will be in the dome. The team played disciplined football and they are well coached. Yes, Creek won the game but there is no shame in losing because they showed that they were a top notch program and I am not trying to disrespect Peach County because they are very good as well but Carrollton’s running game would have worn them out and won going away.

One On One With The Great One … Please understand that the GHSA has the final say in where teams are put. After the 2007 season, Buford petitioned for 7-AAA but was denied. So learn a little back facts before you bash a school for the GHSA’s decision. Not to mention, Buford played two of the top AAA teams in North Georgia for the 2008-2010 seasons in North Hall & Gainesville. And to my knowledge, Buford played each pretty handily. So we know Buford is top in all classifications. I could see Buford 3rd in the state behind Carrollton and Sandy Creek. Enough said.

Jim, you are joking right. No, actually you are showing your ignorance about something you know nothing about. Lowndes, Valdosta, Valdosta State, Valwood, Georgia Christian and Open Bible Christian have over 460 sports titles in football, baseball, basketball, softball, track, wrestling, soccer, tennis, golf, and weightlifting.
The Lowndes girls basketball team once went three consecutive years without a loss. During this time they were crowned region, state and national champs. Its not just football that makes Valdosta Titletown. Our kids compete well in all sports and they have won at all levels. Maybe you should take the time and research something before you spew off at the mouth. YOU have no clue sir!

Great set of games this weekend… Congrats to Brookwood , Hooche , SC , Buford and Clinch……No matter what part of the state you call home or pull for , we should all agree that Brookwood , Hooche , Colquitt ,Calhoun and Clinch were impressive teams to watch…..Watching the games this weekend , I think the future of Georgia football is the spread offense……. In the near future the Camden’s ,Lowndes ,Tucker’s and Carver’s of Georgia football won’t be able to keep up with the Colquitt’s , Chattahoochie’s and Calhoun’s of Georgia football if changes aren’t made…….In Houston county, Hoco and Warner Robins switch to the spread this year and I think Northside will soon follow….

Jim, no offense taken but you are mistaken. You had a point when you said the last 5 years. But now you are saying in the last 20 that we only have football. Lowndes and Valdosta have both played in the state championship game in baseball in the highest classification and Lowndes has won it twice. Valdosta has won the state championship in tennis and weightlifting. Now that is in the last 20 years and only counting state championships in the highest classification. If you count the two christian schools then there are other championships in other sports than football also. Go further back than 20 and you find even more in other sports besides football. Count region and championships and not just state and the number goes through the roof in sports other than football. Your claim is just simply not true.

” I have two bachelors degrees and make over 200,000 a year.”

@ plowboy – Bless your heart, If you feel it’s necessary to make this kind of statement, it must NOT be true. Do you feel that you must over-inflate your ego to feel validated on this blog? I really don’t respect a darn thing you’ve said after this “mines bigger than yours” sort of statement.

If Lowndes were the best, they’d be holding the trophy. If Valdosta was the best, they’d be holding the trophy. They had their chance just like Brookwood. No if’s, ands. or buts! Valdosta / Lowndes, do deserve one trophy, The If’s, Ands or Buts Trophy for Sore Losers. BTW, I hold three Phd’s and make over $1 billion dollars a year!

I am not a fan of Sandy Creek or Carrollton and with that said I expected Carrollton to hand it to SC from everything I had been hearing all year. SC looked GOOD and just plain whipped Carrollton.

Clinch County, Congratulations! If you had to replay this season who is the one team you would not want to play again?

Congrats, Brookwood Mom, you got your championship.

What the heck happened to Stars Mill?

@yo, Thanks for the clarification. Now I understand what you meant and we were very close in intent. I like to believe that the 10 teams were all very good with no stand out team but then I try to look on the positive side.

@plowboy, I think you have me confused with someone else. I make it a point to *never* attack anyone personally as I believe that if you cannot make your point without personally attacking someone, you must not have much of a point to make. I may take exception with someone’s point and address that issue but as best as I can remember (and I checked back over the past several days worth of postings) I never said anything about anyone’s intelligence. I take exception with anyone that says any region is inherently better than the other, has an unfair advantage or anything of the sort. More often than not, someone claiming to be from south Ga starts up with all the nonsense about south teams being so much better than north, especially Gwinnett. I will argue that point all day long.

I very much understand why Valdosta/Lowndes Co. is called title town. Remember, I said I remember back in the early ’60s how Valdosta and Avondale used to contend for the titles. Numbers can be made to say anything anyone wants them to. My point, and I think some of the others that post from metro Atlanta, is that many of the schools in the metro area have had a lot of success for the amount of time their schools have been in existence. Normalize the numbers to take into account the difference in almost 100 years of sports vs the 10 years or less for many metro teams and the numbers look much closer.

On a personal note, I congratulate you on dual degrees and the success you have had. I would hold you up as an example to anybody how hard work coupled with the proper education can be successful. I hope you are able to work with the student athletes to give them a positive role model away from sports. I am afraid too many of our youth look at athletics as the only and/or best way to succeed when the percentages are so very stacked against them.

@P. Bull Terrier – thank you. I tried to say about the same thing a couple of blog pages ago, but apparently some folks that aren’t from around here insist upon holding on to their fantasies. Maybe we should just pity them, and let them stay there. Nothing we can say to them will make any difference. They will ALWAYS be the best, period. Every year. Every game. Every moment. Pity the slobs.

@poor.ole.lambert – are you kidding me? Buford has plenty of horses, and so did Calhoun. Put either of them on the field with any AAAAA school, and either AA school will stick around. Besides the AAAAA final, the AA final was at least as good and just as talented.

Lynch #38 of BW is quoted in the Gwinnett Daily Post saying this of Colquitt County: “They were good. They were fast up and down the field,” Lynch said. “They never quit and my hat goes off to them. It means a lot to beat a team that’s this good.”

In the interest of improving sportsmanship and good taste on this blog, here is a collection of big mouths and bad taste posted earlier by some Packer fans. BW wasn’t immune from having similar fans suffering from immaturity and ego either. Now, looking at these remarks, why were they ever necessary? All they would do would provide BW more motivation. I think CC was far more classy than these fans. CC didn’t deserve them.

There once was a team from Gwinnett
That whipped all the cupcakes they met
But when the Packers arrived
The Broncs were so scared by their size
That they left with their underwear wet!

Well for any of us that enjoy HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL this was a great weekend! Watched the Saturday games on TV (Thanks GPB) but went to the THRASHERS game on friday night at Phillips and was able to get to the dome for the last 10+ minutes of the CHATTAHOOCHEE / STARRS MILL game.

By this point in the game it was all but decided, CHATTAHOOCHEE looked VERY GOOD! I don’t know if it was the fact that they didn’t have a 100% healthy Laskey playing or what but the STARRS MILL team I watched the time I was there did NOT look like the same team that dominated our EAST PAULDING RAIDERS a few weeks ago!

There seemed to be a good crowd on BOTH sides with CHATTAHOOCHEE having maybe a few more folks..anyway they were LOUD! Classy act by the HOOCH coach who near the end of the game went ON THE FIELD to get a player who was trying to fight a STARRS MILL player (don’t know what started it, doesn’t matter), coach took him off the field, gave him an earfull and let him pace up and down behind the bench the rest of the game!

CONGRAT’S to both teams as it takes a LOT to get this far and these two teams (as well as all the others who played) deserve a HUGE GOOD JOB GUYS!

Hope everyone on the blog enjoyed the season, let’s get ready for next year!!!!

and my final 2010 season…TICK…TICK…TICK…BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

GO RAIDERS!!!!!

My final comment regarding the Brookwood-Colquitt game. A great victory for the Broncos. The final result was not determined until late in the game. Looking at the pure statisics, Brookwood had their hands full with the Colquitt offense. Colquitt made some mistakes that cost them at least a 21 point swing. Without those mistakes, Colquitt would have won the game..I think the Bronco Nation knows this. But mistakes are part of the game and so, congratulations to the Broncs for their championship victory; to give up over 600 yards of offense and still win says a great deal toward the outcome of the game. Congratulations to a fine Packer football team that took the winner to the wire. You can take great pride in what you accomplished over the season and what you did on the field in the Dome. Great job to both teams. It was without the showcase game this past weekend.
