Week 1 Playoff Scores

• Incredible... some of you so called Airport “supporters” are ridiculous. With “supporters like you who needs detractors. Funny thing is you were the same ones talking about “oh well so and so graduated so they’re going to take a step back”.... None of you thought this team was going to be as successful as it was (including the gentlemen that run this blog) and instead of congratulating this team and it’s coaching staff on a great season, you jump on here and hide behind your anonymity and take every opportunity to bash the coaching staff. First playoff appearance in seven seasons (which none of you thought would happen) and no words of support at all. This program was about as low as you could possibly be and finally has success and all you can do is focus on the negative.Who cares about your so called “resume”?... don’t see you out there contributing to the program.

  • Not to pat myself on the back but in my preseason picks I did say Airport had a good chance to make the playoffs. I said they would be underdogs to SMCC Riverview and Milan and had a good shot to beat everybody else, go back and check Airport's season preview.

    • Nice call, in all fairness though, what was your pick for the Jets in 2018 and 2017?

      • Seriously though yes Airport did lose alot of skill position guys from last year. But I figured they would be alright this year cause they returned alot on the O and D lines and I knew they'd be in good hands with Blankenship at QB.

        • Lol I honestly forgot writing that. It's all good Chris.

      • 4-5 and 4-5 😁

        • I’m not trying to be a jerk , but on 8/17/18 you write “ I'm calling it now, the defense will be good enough to return Airport to the playoffs.” EM

          Just saying! 😀

  • Hey I am a airport fan and I love airport football. The program had a great year and I am very proud. We just like to hypothesize about what could have happened. I work late or I would be assistant coaching airport but since I can't I have to give my two cents on here.

• How many kids did CC have suited up. Looked like about 50 to me. First time they ever had to take 2 buses.

  • they brought up their JV team

• I don't know how good Saline was this year but Belleville smashed them 49-10. Will belleville be in the finals this year do you guys all think?

  Close one for whiteford

  • Belleville certainly has the talent to win it all. Anything can happen in D 1 football though. Big game at undefeated Woodhaven this week but I expect them to win.

• i am a coach.
  jets vs milan truly a great game. it had it all.
  big hits, big blocks, HUGE plays called back by penalties, huge kick returns and trick plays. great game to watch.
  great defensive battle.
  14-7 with 2:30 seconds left in the 1st quarter.
  Not another score until 2:06 left in the 4th.
  going for 2 for the win?!...with the way the game was going, a super muddy field, jets D shutting down the most dangerous player (perhaps in the region) Hines for 3 quarters...100% i am going for the win! my best vs your best lets go!
  Pac met by 3 defenders at goal line and he just came up a ball length short.
  heart breaking but motivation to come back even stronger next season.
  i got an end zone video of it on FB.
  great jobs Jets i am proud of all of you on a fine season.
  good luck Milan represent boys

• Congrats to Huron League teams - the league faired much better than most leagues...SMCC, Riverview & Milan advance!

  Congrats to Airport - on a night of HUGE upsets in the playoffs...HUGE...they were one yard away from it as well. We will have a new state champ at D1-D4 for sure...crazy night for HS playoffs...almost like the first weekend of NCAA March Madness. Airport played great.

  And, Milan advances - the boys have a chance to win 11 games and a district title...rare air for Milan football program in its entire history. The Milan defense did their thing all night. Maybe not going to get that "player of the week" honors...but this "no-name" Milan Defense showed, as one Milan parent coined last week, that this is a "Team Thang" here in Milan. Incredible effort and when it mattered, the boys did their thing!

• How about a little noise for that Pirate defense who shut out Carlson after giving up a TD w 7:55 to go in the second?
  And I’m seeing that love for the HL who went 3-1. Maybe the only reason they weren’t 4-0 was 2 had to play each other. Either way, keep reppin’ the League!

  • jack giarmo has not gotten out of that district yet... unbelievable

• I BIG Thank You to Monroe County Radio for broadcasting the Milan Airport game so those of us in Texas could follow along. Very much appreciate it.

• Falcons have no shot at beating Ithaca in the finals this year

  Riverview s gonna take down AP
  Early Prediction RIV 26 AP 13

  Milan handles Romulus Summit Academy North easily. I got em by 22

  • I bet you’re a salty airport fan who is mad they just lost and is frustrated that smcc keeps making playoff runs year after year. The last time airport won a playoff game, the kids on the current varsity team were 4-6 years old. And don’t give me the “CC plays easy teams in d-6.” When you guys haven’t beaten us in 8 years.

    • If SMCC plays the way they did against Riverview no one in D-6 will beat them.

      • SMCC matches up very well vs power running teams(view). Speed on the edges will be the challenge for the Falcons. They will see it next Friday.

        • I realize this team was not very disciplined that cc just played. but there were a few time where there QB/RB got outside the tackles and our D ends and linebackers bounced them wide and our safeties came and filled there hole. looked good on the edge this Friday. have to be pleased with that.

  • Ithaca lost to Sanford-Meridian 19-14 ... Good thing SMCC doesn't have to worry about losing to the now...¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    • Technically not wrong then? I mean, they have no shot at beating them now.

  • Ithaca lost I believe.

• any update on Trenton vs Allen Park?

  • 39-15 allen park final

  • Allen Park won

  • Allen Park 39-14

  • What a night for the huron league

• Heck of a game. All the respect to Airport for pushing Milan to the brink.

  Survive and advance.
