I am enjoying the ride.
Who...Lighten up Alice...<br />I am enjoying the ride. <br /><br />Who cares who had an easy bracket? Line them up and play.<br /><br />Huron has played everyone that has lined up in front of them. They have risen to the challenge so far. Thurston - another test, should be a close game. Line them up and play.<br /><br />So what happens if OLSM gets upset this weekend? Dewitt lost last week...it happens....Does that belittle anything this region has done? No, line them up and play.<br /><br />Good Luck Huron...hold onto the ball...wrap up on tackles....be the deepest defender on the field....hit the big backs low...keep your emotions in check.. and STAY WARM..lol<br /><br />Good Luck as well SMCC.<br /><br />This is fun guys, relish in it.<br />My son is making memories, for both him and me.<br /><br />MJAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-35322834838788453222014-11-14T10:51:10.408-05:002014-11-14T10:51:10.408-05:00Redford Thurston (8-3) @ New Boston Huron (10-1): ...Redford Thurston (8-3) @ New Boston Huron (10-1): I can't believe one of these teams will be a state semifinalist.

"Huron really hasn't played anyone decent all year. Their only loss came at the hands of SMCC and that was a blowout. I really do not know what to expect out of them against this team. I watched the Huron/SMCC game and was expecting a lot more out of them. They have some good players, but have they really been tested? Everyone wants to make Riverview a powerhouse, but they were fakes. Continued success, Huron. Just don't get ahead of yourselves.<br /><br />I simply called you disingenuous, which I believe is true. Nobody is over hyping Huron. Everyone on here think it is going to be an evenly matched game. I picked Huron in the original post based on home field. You tried to discredit their 10-1 season, everyone responded with what they believe. No over hype, just facts based on a 10 win season thus far.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02325928863743778443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-69844055680564286772014-11-14T09:52:53.655-05:002014-11-14T09:52:53.655-05:00Anyone who says that ALL the teams in Hurons Regio...Anyone who says that ALL the teams in Hurons Region did not get a favorable draw are being disingenuous.

I'm talking about the last 30 years, not just 10. CC had their down time. Jefferson is going through their down time right now. At least they have some experience in the W column. They've won a hell of a lot more than Huron has. I AM proud that the Huron League had 4 teams in the playoffs. Huron DOES have a good team, FINALLY. The Monroe News basically said the same thing. You guys aren't used to winning yet. And yes, I did pay attention to the bottom teams in the HL. Huron is usually there. You even scheduled your football banquet too soon. Am I wrong? If you were used to so much success, the date would have been a bit later. I'm actually happy for you guys. You guys are like the Detroit Lions fans. Win one playoff game and you're buying Super Bowl tickets! Enjoy your success! YOU HAVE A GOOD TEAM!! Boy! You talk about the CC fans, you guys can't even take a compliment.

Did you even watch a game this year? Did you see the 4 teams from the HL that went to the playoffs? Did you pay any mind to the teams that were at the bottom of the league? Or are you so egotistical and reluctant to say, Huron is a good team. You saying that one comment just explained that you know nothing of the league. Jefferson hasn't had a winning season since 2008 and that was a 5-4 season. Since then it's been 4-5, 1-8, and this year 2-7.... give credit when credit is due. Congratulate them and move on.

I think a lot of skepticism comes from the fact that this is their first District title ever...they're simply not proven and when they succeed, people aren't used to it and look for reasons to explain it.<br /><br />I think this is a perfect storm for Huron this year. Everything for the program is coming together. Their league play is no mistake, their coaching is improving, and they're performing on the field. To say this team wouldn't get this far in Division 4, 5, or 6 are just dumb arguments. They're not in those divisions, why even talk about it? They're in division 3 and they're playing for a regional title. I do not think this is a one-time thing. Some teams fall (Milan, Airport) and others rise. Huron is on the rise.<br /><br />Even if Huron beat a couple of huge powerhouse teams like EGR or OLSM, the same people would say the other schools were having a bad year or played badly. Wins speak for themselves. I'll agree that they have a favorable bracket compared to others, but they've still beat 4 playoff teams this year, one of them twice. Favorable, sure, but they're handling those teams quite well.stosentonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-88816232413215832062014-11-13T14:16:37.752-05:002014-11-13T14:16:37.752-05:00I'm not disputing anything you said @ 2:06, th...I'm not disputing anything you said @ 2:06, this current Huron team is better than anything that the school has put on the field in decades, and I'm happy that you finally have a good program. It is great that there is another competitive team in the HL, and it's not just CC and Jefferson every year. I'm not ignorant. I've watched plenty of good teams. Teams that would hand any team in the HL their lunch. Like I said before, you won the games you were supposed to win. That's all that any team can ask. Could you have competed in Division 4, 5, or 6?

YES.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-61282741757204564322014-11-13T14:06:01.106-05:002014-11-13T14:06:01.106-05:00I'm sorry I have to continue.....the league mu...I'm sorry I have to continue.....the league must be down if Huron only had one loss right? They must have had a lucky draw in the playoffs because they are still around right? It has to be....it's Huron.<br /><br />How about you just admit that you can't believe Huron is actually 10-1 and done something right in football. They couldn't be any good. Maybe it's the fact that these kids have been playing organized football since the 1st grade. Maybe it's the fact that they are part of the bigger, faster stronger programs that Huron implemented 8 years ago in their high school. Maybe these kids are just talented, athletic, smart and committed. Maybe their hardwork has just paid off. Maybe it's the fact that Huron has a head coach that has been there a decade now and he has changed the culture at the school regarding football. Or maybe they just haven't beaten anyone who is any good. <br /><br />I call it disingenuous, you call it just being honest. Maybe it's just ignorance.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02325928863743778443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-81446670204630745462014-11-13T13:58:18.474-05:002014-11-13T13:58:18.474-05:00Riverview had a solid team, don't diminish tha...Riverview had a solid team, don't diminish that.

Chris has a much better shot at correctly predicting this game since he does know the match-up. I agree with 9:11am that Huron hasn't played any really powerful teams except SMCC, so it's acceptable to be apprehensive about how they'll do against a team that's had success.<br /><br />I don't think anyone here is saying that Huron is going to win a state championship, but they've been performing consistently and beat a couple of playoff teams relatively comfortably. Huron does match up well with Thurston and it is pretty realistic to predict a win out of them.stosentonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4898014593441742663.post-47004014474455971972014-11-13T09:50:03.512-05:002014-11-13T09:50:03.512-05:00I think you are being disingenuous with that state...I think you are being disingenuous with that statement about Huron.
