• I am baffled on how SMCC lost??
  Two years ago I spoke my opinions here and was approached by SMCC staff, who reminded me my opinions are my own and that they have won state titles so they clearly know what they are doing...

  Fast forward a year and it’s another loss ???

  Looks like they know how to lose to JLC

• Anyone going to apologize to Frank for his picks?

  • Dundee, Milan, Carlson……..Ouch

• I’m pretty confident that lumen would wipe the floor with any huron league team(even a healthy Riverview team), most of the SEC teams, all of the downriver league teams and most of the teams in state, even division 1 teams. They have the best coach in Michigan history, have class A player size and always churn out top tier college talent

  • No one ever coaching Michigan high school football will ever surpass John Herrington as the greatest Michigan High School coach ever. Also, JLC had an opportunity to wipe the floor with a Huron League team in the district championship game. Why did they not wipe the floor with them as you state they would do to every here on league team

  • No one ever coaching Michigan high school football will ever surpass John Herrington as the greatest Michigan High School coach ever.

  • Don’t get carried away because Milan got whacked. Chelsea is good but not unbeatable.

  • Having seen SMCC, Riverview, Lumen Christi, Monroe , Bedford, Milan, I can agree with this statement to some extent. However, a healthy 2021 Riverview team would have beaten Lumen Christi. Riverview at full health is big and physical enough to handle that. Their defense is built to stop offenses like JLC. Congrats to SMCC on a great season. We all know that last night is only another chapter in what I think is going to be a playoff rivalry for awhile.

    • Let’s remind ourselves. Monroe is D1 and Riverview D3.

• I don’t mean to make excuses but why is the enrollment of d6 teams so high now? The enrollment classification is 372-458. In 2019 CC was in division 6 at 347 students and this year they’re d7 with 341 students. Division 6 is so much easier than division 7. They ran though d6 that year and to be honest, if they were division 7 they probably don’t win it. Teams like JLC, Pewamo-Westphalia(who are a phenomenal team), Muskegon CC, Detroit Loyola(who has multiple d1 players), Detroit central, new lothrop and traverse city st Francis are all state championship caliber teams.

  I don’t know another division that has 8 legit championship threats

  • SMCC beat PW in 2017. PW won D7 that year. SMCC was D6. Lost to Madison in a close one, who then lost to NL at FF.

    Division strength fluctuates. Just the way it is.

    They predetermined the divisions this year. Tried to place 65 or so teams in 8 divisions. That’s the way it worked out enrollment wise.

    • SMCC and Madison were both D7 that year. Madison lost to Saugatuck who was beaten by PW in the state final.

• Gary
  I ran into the OLSM boys soccer coach a couple of weeks ago. . He said next year he will be coaching the girls . They became Co- Ed two years ago, and the MHSAA will recognize them next year as Co-Ed . The girls team will play in the lowest divisions possible , as they expect to have 74 total girls . But for boys sports, their division will be based on total enrollment, roughly 574 students

  He stated this will drop the football team down to D5 or D 6 next year

  Do you know anything about that

  • I don’t know anything about that. Interesting though.

• Where it’s fun to post on this blog and have some fun banter, we should still keep things in perspective. A lot of seniors in our region had to hang their helmet for the last time these last few weeks. I think we can all remember how that feeling was. Looks like Whiteford is the lone wolf left in the region, and I have a hunch that coach Mensing and crew are prepped to make a run back to Ford Field. Goodluck Bobcats

• If Hudson and Whiteford both win next week, it's going to set up an epic battle. Get your tickets and popcorn ready folks!

• to anyone that thinks they can answer this, why was chelsea move down to D4 and King moved back down to D3? D3 seemed to be a perfect place to challenge Chelsea and a D2 a perfect challenge for King, especially when you consider king to have the 3rd best QB in the nation.

  • They split the divisions evenly based on the amount of 11 man teams.

• Congrats Whiteford!!
  Once again, a stellar performance.
  Your definitely doing something right out there. Probably the most consistent
  public school football program in the
  county.
  Good luck next week!!

  • Really? They also play week schedule.

    • Weak schedule? Had the second highest playoff points in division 8. Try again bud

      • Also played a D1 school and a 10-1 school from Ohio to fill in for missing a league game against a 2-5 league team. Do some research about football and how to spell “week” goon

• Man what a bad night for our region teams.cant wait for next season.
