Saturday Playoff Score

• And how much regional hardware do the rest of you have over the last 3 years? How about the last 10? 25?

• Alot of teams will be glad to be 20-13 & have at least 1 playoff win the last 3 years.

• @10:58 SMCC very average at 20-13 the last 3 seasons with no regional hardware

• @10:51 I've never met Giarmo or do I have a dog in this fight....proud Monroe High Alum. I agree with you 100% that a stout D and ball control are the key elements to your success. My point is simple, 8-10 passes makes the T more effective. Having a kicking game might help you Catholics to. I find it hard to believe you couldn't recruit a kicker.

• Very passionate, but Vuich and Windham both hold the passing and receiving records for a season. Not that it matters but but the record books on line haven’t been updated since 2012. But your point is valid definitely

• Sorry I must have missed the 6’4 receiver with 4.5 speed (Vuich) out there or on the jvs. That was the point we don’t have those “special” guys. Good players just not at that level. And only because some compared the team to 2014

• @10:58, 2014 Giarmo passed for 71 yards in championship, was not the difference. It as defense and a punt return fumble for TD. 2009 passed for 36 yards, lost defense couldn’t stop Montague last drive. 2010: 86 yards passing lost defense could not stop Ithaca qb runs. Passing did nothing in these games. 2004 Chris Fanslaw threw for more yards then any other T qb at SMCC. Team lost in semi. Passing is not the answer to championships. Ground attack, long drives, stout defense is the formula. If you know Giarmo so well ask him. I truely believe he would tell you the same thing. Why would he leave Carlson after he turned it around anyway? Even there it was the run attack not the passing. Apparently you have interests in CC passing, for self interests. Me before team is the quickest way to fail in football. As is laziness , indifference, and lack of getting in the weight room and build team unity. Like I said before if you don’t like it leave and don’t watch the games.

• @6:20 You can obviously throw out of the T. 8-12 × a game is what will win a state championship. They have the players to do this. Maybe Giarmo will come home and show you how it's done.

• You people talking about CCrunning the spread and throwing the ball more are ridiculous. Don’t even try to use 2014 as a means to sell. CC has no Travis Vuich at any level or a Bryce Windham at any level. Furthermore they passed mostly from the T not the spread. Defense wins championships, not throwing the ball. Controlling the ball with long drives using up time is the recipe not throwing the ball. You people are big me people trying to get individuals recognized instead of team play and system play. Go run your ideas somewhere else.

• @1:42, You are obviously a very articulate crybaby. You go into very long winded ramblings about how unfair things are for everyone else in the League and the state and for anyone who happens to breathe the same air as the people of SMCC. Maybe you can rip a few pages out of your thesaurus and dry your tears with them. Get over it. Life itself is unfair. If you complain enough, they'll hand out some participation medals to your team. You got your wish, SMCC lost on the last play of the game. I'm sure you enjoyed such a heartbreaking moment in SMCC's season. We choose not to dwell on whether or not this team or that team plays up or down or sideways. We just focus on the task at hand. Sometimes it goes well, sometimes it goes bad. And hopefully, we learn a few things along the way. Maybe if you stop worrying about what SMCC is doing, you should grab a clipboard and give your time and efforts to your school of choice try to make them better. But someone else should teach sportsmanship. You're obviously lacking in that.
