Im sorry it was Colquitt...When i think of South Georgia teams i automatically think of Lowndes...Especially since Lowndes robbed my alma mater South West Dekalb in 1999 lol...
I was at that game. I was in 11th grade at Lowndes at the time.
I was in the 11th grade at Lowndes once
Aslong as you wasn’t there in 1999 you ok with me...
Nope waaaaay before then, we had not beat Valdosta yet when I was there and AAA was the highest classification
O ya that was when Valdosta was a dynasty...
Big time comeback for Woodward vs Cartersville tonight. Trailed by a couple of TD's for most of the game and scored with a minute left to win 31-28. I don't know who the new DC is for Woodward but he has transformed that team.
27.9 ppg allowed last year.
8.5 ppg allowed this year.
Blessed Trinity up next. Woodward won the regular season matchup 13-10.
When I was in the 11th grade there was no Lowndes. Valdosta beat us regularly.
He was in 5A but the point is the same. Rogers has a solid pregame design but as soon as they adjust then it goes downhill fast. He has to improve in this area if he wants to be one of the best. And for such a smart guy, his defenses will cause most people to pull their hair out.
It is just a case of a little too soon imo. As I stated before, Colquitt is a premier football school....one of the best 3 or 4 jobs in the state. Rogers was great at taking over a floundering program and making them relevant....but that is not the same as taking over a premier program and either keeping the status quo or improving their standing in 7A.
Of course, I also understand he was not the first choice down there. Colquitt powers that be were turned down multiple times from their first few choices....hence the really late hire. Believe Rogers only had 2 or 3 weeks before their scheduled Spring game. Think of it like this....Colquitt....the Mighty Hawgs followed Rush Propst up with a guy that has never made it past the elite 8 in 5A as a head coach. Guy is gonna have some baggage when he is that green behind the ears.
I do believe Rogers can be really good....it is just gonna take some time to deal with the learning curve.
My Alma Mater. Woodward that is. Played for them many moons ago.
Cool! Glad to know that. My brother's kids went there. One played for the team. The other was in the band. I'm rooting for them to win it all this year.
2 more games for a second state title.
Heading to the 1A semifinal between Holy Innocents and Eagle's Landing Christian Academy tonight (Friday). HIES won the regular season matchup 42-41 in OT. I suspect it's gonna be tough to beat ELCA a second time.
Rooting for Woodward Academy and @BiggDawgg63's Oconee County Warriors in 4A, Cedar Grove in 3A, and Thomasville in 2A.
I have no dogs in the fight for the top three classifications, so best of luck to my fellow forum members if your teams are still in the hunt.
Good luck as well. I will be at the Buford vs Jones game tonight. Big weekend ahead with all the Final 4 games and the SECcg....fun times
Lowndes is playing North Gwinnett tonight in the concrete palace. Lowndes' defense reminds me so much of UGA. Earlier this year they held Cody Brown (4 star RB for the 2021 class) to 29 yds on 15 rushing attempts.
