Which SOC III Team has the better chance to bring home a STATE TITLE?? (Maybe Both??)

Post by JeepNation26 »

As we all know the top 2 teams out of SOC III conference Minford and South Webster are both playing in their division State Final 4 this upcoming weekend.
Div. V Minford vs. Lutheran East and Div. VII South Webster vs. Cornerstone Christian.
First off, Best of Luck to BOTH TEAMS and I hope that they both can bring back a State Title to Scioto County. But I wanted to put a thread out there to see what's everyone's thoughts and perspective on which team (maybe both) they believe can bring home the State Title...

I don't think either have a great chance at winning two games, but I would give Minford the better chance. Hard for me to envision Russia losing this year. I have seen LUE lose to teams they should have beaten. The same can not be said about Russia.

On paper, SW probably has the better chance. I just have no faith in ER and the Jeeps got super lucky to beat an average ND team.

Tall task for both teams. Play your best game, as a TEAM, and you will have no regrets.

I agree as far as Scioto County!

3 Scioto Co teams playing in the state tournament. Has that ever happened before in any sport?

I'm not sure but seems doubtful in any 1 sport. It is pretty neat, and exciting for the county.

What makes you think ND was average? By what definition? They are underwhelming "athletically" as a group, but that's about it. They had 20 wins. They have been 1 of, if not the best defensive team in the district over the past 3-4 years based on points allowed. They have averaged over 18 wins for the past 4 seasons. Average doesn't typically make the elite 8, even in this expanded format. I do agree with you about not having faith in ER. And naturally, they will have to play better than they did to win at state.

SOC1 is weak. They caught Webster on a night they couldn’t hit the ocean.

No one in D7 can match with the Roberts Boy. Russia hoping like heck, they don’t get Webster.

Look, someone let the troll out to play. Tough talk from a guy who played approximately 0 minutes in high school and would've done good to be the water boy on those SOC I teams this year.

If he could stay in a game mentally the full 32, they’d have a chance.
