The T puts up 45 points and u still hate. The T owns you now hush up and watch.
Where is everybody? Riverview plays Saturday at Rochester 1 o’clock.
whiteford won as well? wish there was a video this week?
No video this week. There will be game write-ups very soon.
Riverview has a championship level offense, T and all. The question is do they have a championship level defense? Not saying they do or don’t but that is the big question going into their next games. Surprised no one is talking ab the defensive side of the ball. Giving up 30-25 pts is really playing with fire as you get deeper into the playoffs. Yes Tecumseh and DC had very good offenses but it doesn’t get any easier after regionals. Hoping they get it done.
Meant 30-45 pts…
Riverview pulls most of their starters once games go on and the lead grows, it helps keep your starters healthy for the next week, 60 points or 1 point difference, at the end of the day a win is a win
Riverview allium.
Great point
Great point Riverview alumni.
Don’t kill your players early in the year.
Train other players
That is smart football coaching
Huron has made that mistake the last four years.
One ball carriers til they drop.
Players playing both ways.
Hats off to Riverview
Huron fan
I meant giving up 30-35 points their last 2 playoff games. I don’t think Riverview had their backups in vs DC, it was close until the end. Not 100% sure they had their subs in vs Tecumseh besides the very end. They have a great opportunity to get to Ford Field, is their D good enough to win it all is the question. I hope it is.
Their defense is plenty good enough. Doesnt mean they will win however.
They will need to play well in all areas. They have a very good shot at Ford Field as does Goodrich.
My big question. There offense only scored 18 point in the airport game.
Huron league Dad
Airport played a tough game that night. Riverview also had a couple of fumbles and bad snaps that bogged down some long drives.
Breaded Buc.
This is my point
Airport doesn’t have that good of a defense. They let up to many points.
Airport gave up alot of points this year.
For a great team I think Riverview had a more than average number of turnovers this year.
That being sad.
Riverview can win this game if they don’t turn the ball over
Chris Gray Frank. What do you think
Huron league Fan
Goodrich curb stomped OLSM, Martians looked 100% legit. This should be their toughest opponent so far no doubt. They were up like 41-6 at one point in the 2nd half and they don’t just run, they can throw it around too. Their D looks very impressive as well. Turnovers will obviously be huge as both View and Grich can score quickly. Yes View can do it….this should be a helluva game.
Watching Dallas vs Green Bay game today.
Announcer said no one in modern football today would know what the Wing T is.
Perhaps we should get with the times.
Win or not. These kids need to know modern offenses if they will ever go to the next level.
Hog wash .
You don’t think HS football coaches should base their program off of what a FOX color commentator says?
Tell me what university or college or junior college runs the T or wing T formation.
Penn St. ran it this last Saturday.
It is a HS offense and is effective… just like any other offense, if you block well and execute.
Many teams would just look silly trying to run a spread. Personnel often dictates what you do.
Teams that have won state titles on this blog:
SMCC- Full House T
Whiteford- Double Wing
Teams still alive this year:
Whiteford- Double Wing
Riverview- Full House T
IF you are worried about a kid getting recruited, it doesnt matter much at all what they ran in HS.
If you have the stature and measurables, the coaches and scouts will find you.
Football is still about blocking and tackling. Always has been, always will be.
Gary,
I’m not disagreeing with you, I just asked a question, how many college teams run the T or Wing T,
You named 1 team. Actually they do not run either, just because the QB lines up under center does not make it the T or Wing T,
They actually run some I and pro I.out of some sets.
I watched them line up in the Full House T. They scored a TD out of it from like the 15 or so… just last Saturday.
I havent a clue how many or who runs it.
Huron fans wanted to run the ball. We would have love to run the T or Wild Cat.
Coaches didn’t want to run the T offense because they want to pass the ball.
I’m all about running the ball
Flatrock did well passing the ball because they had a QB they understood football. Not like other QBs in the league
Riverview keep running the dam ball
Huron alumi
The T puts up 45 points and u still hate. The T owns you now hush up and watch.
Downriver trap house.
Not everyone hates the T.
I myself like the T offense with some passing.
Running the T takes a lot of practice. Huron league Teams don’t teach or practice the T like Riverview and SMCC
Riverview lives and dies by the T.
Look back at the last 10 or 15 years. Riverview was not the top team in the league.
It’s not always the most effective offense.
Other school don’t get the support or have the coaching staff to teach the T offense.
And most huron league Team don’t want to run the team.
It takes a full team to run the T.
And some teams want to just one or two players running and touching the ball and those teams never make it to the end of a 12 game season with a healthy Team.
Most teams don’t play as a team
Hats off to Riverview
Riverview Keep up the great work
Huron league fan.
Pump the Brakes ” Welcome to 2022″ Less than 5% of these kids go on to play college. Less than 1% of those who play college go on to the NFL.
I guess the solution to get more NFL players from SE Michigan is to run the spread and throw the ball 65% of the time. Brilliant.
Who knew? Thanks for your insight.
Hi, so Penn State has multiple times in multiple games pulled out the T. Air Force runs the flex bone, which you can’t tell me is much different looking than a wing T. Army same thing.
But really the reasoning highschool teams run the T is that its much more efficient for most schools based on talent level. If a Huron league school ran a Ohio State style offense with similar run to pass splits it would look ridiculous most of the time. You can’t tell me CJ Stroud is hiding on CC or Riverview or Jefferson.
A second reason would simply be look at the success of the teams that have run it. SMCC has historically dominated the league and since riverview has switched to the T they have done the same.
3rd thing, Huron League has had players make it to the next level despite these offenses, players can learn new systems.
I agree with most of that, however I don’t think they are dominating because of the T. A team can dominate with any offense provided they have the personnel. What matters is execution of said offense. Precision, blocking, tackling. Fundamentals.
Personnel with an identity. A buy-in.
The T has certainly been a key factor in the recent success of Riverview.
It is not a coincidence.
Riverview has almost always been a high caliber football program, but this recent run(averaging less than 2 losses a year since 2017) has been spurred by a few things… one of them is the switch to the T.
I’m missing all the commentary for the coming week?! Riverview is still alive & strong!
No show this week?
You don’t see the T offense in a top high school football state. Texas Florida California Etc.
Gary Chris. Does the T creat bad football habits that will hurt the players at the next level.
If not who cares
If not coach to win at that level.
It like that in any sport
And who really cares.
Flatrock passes to win.
Huron league fan
The bigger schools mostly have the athletes year in and year out to be able to run a spread offense effectively.
No the T does not create bad habits. Its blocking and running.
I will add to the positive comments on this thread. What a great season for the Huron League with 6 of 8 teams making the playoffs. I feel that if you put Jefferson or Milan in their respective playoff divisions by week 10, at least one of them would win a game as well. 3 Huron League teams won district champions, and 1 will continue on to the state semi finals!
Jefferson- The rebuilding process has begun. They were more physical this year but will they look different next year in more ways than 1??
Milan- A very rare rebuilding year for Milan. Injuries hurt them but Milan will be back, fighting for a league title next year. Some things just don’t change homie!
Grosse Ile- The wheels fell off as the season winded down on the island. Not sure what happened to the Red Devils?
SMCC- Numerous people have already said it, kudos to them on finishing strong after a rough start. Losing Jondro, Kinsey and Borer will hurt but a talented JV team is waiting for their turn.
Huron- Year 1 of the Hoover era showed potential. Consistency will be the key in year 2.
Flat Rock- What a great year for the Rams! Airport, Riverview, and Flat Rock are easily the 2023 early season favorites.
Riverview- Superior to all other Huron League programs right now. Their dedication in the weight room and commitment to the T is a dangerous combo. I expect to see them at Ford Field.
Airport- A fairly good year for the Jets. They ended SMCC’s streak over them and likely will take control of that rivalry for awhile. The question is, when will they begin to play defense in big games?
The View being in D 4 is perfect for them
Great program
D 3 goes thru Rouge or king not an easy task
Riverview could go back the div 3 next year.
Elaborate on how Jefferson looks different next year “more ways than 1”??????
New coach if you haven’t heard already. Everyone out here already knows.
Tipton is gone after 1 year? I find that hard to believe…
It’s true.
So a guy that’s dedicated the last 20 years to his alma mater only gets 1 year at the helm? Or did he resign?
Pretty sure he stepped down.
I have heard the rumor about Beaudrie becoming the next Head Football Coach at Jefferson to. It is interesting since he is an SMCC alumni, coached with Jack Giarmo in the 2000’s then went to Summit Academy and was let go there, but did have a successful tenue at Erie Mason running a high powered spread offense. I am assuming his son who played for SMCC’s middle school would be going with him then? He coached St Mary Elementary Schools this year so I wonder if any of those kids would follow him to Jefferson? This could make the Bears~Falcons rivalry alot more interesting! I thought Coach Tipton has the Bears on the right track, they were at least playing physical football when I saw them play SMCC and Mason
Why would they do that after one year.
Any word where the Riverview Goodrich game will be played?
Probably find out Monday.
At Oxford High.
Right down the road from my house! Might have to go cheer on the Huron League! I am a former Huron League parent! So I still keep up with the league….
Practically home field advantage for Goodrich.
Eh. View fans would walk there. Not a big deal at all.
Rochester HS 1pm on MHSAA
No worries Riverview travels VERY well!!!
Game is at Rochester high Saturday @ 1
I think it’s at Rochester High School now where we played Farmington Hills Harrison in 2017
No, Rochester High School
Rochester High School per MHSAA
Great Year for the Huron League.
Flat Rock played hard all year and had a great season. Ultimately we played a better team and lost. No shame in that…
Want to wish all the luck in the world to my alma mater Riverview!!
Great bounce back year for CC. Rough start and great finish.
Huron and Airport had great years.
Great League. Hope the Bucs win a State Championship!
Riverview won another game against a good opponent. All year they have been very methodical and have taken a business like approach to each game. No extreme highs or lows . I would like to ask the rest of the Huron league for their support this week and at FF .
Go Bucs…. win it all….
Way to represent The Huron League!
Win it all for the league!!!,,
For all the people who hate the T, 3 out of the 4 teams left in division 4 run old time offenses. The T looks simple on the outside but difficult to run it well like the view and st. Mary’s . Sorry can’t call them cc, only one cc and they are called shamrocks.
Grand Rapids south Christian runs a power spread.
No sir. The real CC is in Monroe. 1846. Detroit CC not founded until the 1920s
Is there something wrong with my comment stating that the real CC, which is Monroe CC was founded in 1846 and Detroit CC not until the 1920s?
So. SMA is the school you are referencing.
MCC wasn’t established until the 1940’s.
To add. “Catholic Central” by itself, is saved for Novi Detroit CC. We are known statewide as SMCC.
You say “we” are known as SMCC. You are a CC guy, sorry SMCC guy. I am not a we. You are CC by the rest of the league. We always called you CC, perhaps you didn’t know that.
Correct. I’m talking statewide catholic Central is saved for Novi.
DC fan here….Riverview you have an extremely impressive football team, especially on offense. One question, how the heck did Airport hold you to 18 pts??!
You guys run that T with absolute precision, it was a great game, I just can’t see anyone stopping that offense, best of luck the rest of the way.
Airports a good team
For those who don’t know Goodrich runs the power I. Riverview runs the T. We are going to see and 1978 slugfest.
What was the score of the Carlson (ranked 3rd in the state) game
Great year for Flatrock.
First time in playoffs
That was the hardest working team I have ever seen.
Ever play they ran to the ball.
Great job coach for making them earn there strips and not just giving a position to someone just because of there connection to the school. (Not like other teams)
This sounds like a butt hurt, cry baby Mom who thinks all players should get equal playing time. Go Bucs.
Peace and love to you, young man.
No Go Buc
No cry baby mom hear.
Play other players so you can have healthy players at the end of the year.
Your own team does it.
Weak the up.
Disappointed CC didn’t try to outflank Napoleon on the outside with our speed tonight…Napoleon isn’t fast sideline to sideline…straight up in the trenches, yes…hats off to them…but very disappointed like I said, we definitely had the speed advantage and wasn’t taken advantage of….
we tried getting outside… and we got stopped for 2-3 yard gains
We would have broken one for sure with our speed, stop making excuses…
maybe your defensive line could have stopped the run too
In football there is always a team at the next level. Country day was just that team. Huge, huge, athletic Oline, great discipline, and well coached. I watched flat rock all season move the ball all over the field vs everyone ( including Riverview ) that game was was 21-18 going into the 4th. It literally seemed like country day had 13 players on Defense.
Plays that got flat rock 7-12 yards a play all year were 2 yards or no gains. The passing windows were small. Tackles were made immediately. It was like Country day was in the huddle.
Flat rock never had a chance. Country day was just that good . If country day wanted they could have won 77-7. Great season for the Rams, but they just played a better team. Hard to believe country day lost 3 times this year. I’m guessing they make it to ford field. Look out for the rams in 2023!!!
I agree , too big, too strong, too fast!!!!
Nobody in our league could have beat them, great job flat rock for fighting to the end.
Congratulations SMCC on a fine season. To start off 1-3 and make a run to the regional championship is a testament to the players and coaches on never giving up. I am sure SMCC will be back.
Hats off to Napoleon, they were physical and ran the ball well. Good luck next week.
What a game in Riverview hat’s off to both teams. Jacob Shank 5 touchdowns. Should be player of the year. Congrats SMCC & Flat Rock on great seasons.
Great season Flat Rock, can’t wait for next year.
Goodrich 40 OLSM 20. So it’ll be Riverview vs Goodrich winner goes to Ford Field. Keep it going Riverview!!! Hats off to Flat Rock and SMCC on nice playoff runs this year.
Goodrich is Legit…….D is solid View can do it….but this game will be a tough one
Great game between DC and Riverview! Both teams showed up ready to play and demonstrated heart. Awesome job by the Riverview team to demonstrate grit in adverse situations and capitalize on DC mistakes. That #3 Shank has some Florida speed in him.
Great high school football game. Congrats to both teams
Bigger stronger faster. Well coached.
Great season Flatrock
What the heck is happening to FR? Is Country Day that good?
Yes. They ran the ball at will
And they have a coach.
DCD was a superior team. Congratulations to DCD and good luck.
Super proud of FR Team.
No one thought you would get this far.
Great season!
Clock strikes midnight on Flat Rock.
Who would have thought it would strike midnight in the regionals 😂l
Great season FR
See ya SMCC. Thank you Napoleon.
Uh oh….Somebody doesn’t like CC. Love it.
Stop!! SMCC have won more league championships then any other league team.

Thanks Nancy Pelosi
Aaaaand there it is, the guy that interjects politics into every conversation. I bet you’re a blast at parties.
For the record
I didn’t introduce politics
Anon did
Just stating the facts
Relax it was for him not you
I bet you’re fun at parties bringing up politics on a sports blog
The guy calling for a Napoleon route is probably the same guy that said Tecumseh was gonna take Riverview behind the woodshed.
Yeah but he does know about all the characters from the Wizard of Oz so He must be really smart.
Nice. Liked the Wizard of Oz comment. Which one had no brain? The Huron league AD’s for letting CC stay. No win situation right there.
