Week 7 power rankings and predictions

[the dog]

I'm not sure what the argument is about here. Crown Point is by far and away better than Merrillville and this year Merrillville is most certainly better than Valpo. This is not one of Valpo's better teams. Struggled against Michigan City and Chesterton in wins, weren't close against CP or Merrillville. Tiers seem to be tier 1 (CP), tier 2 (Merrillville), tier 3 (Valpo, Chesterton, MC, LC, Portage) and tier 4 (LaPorte).

Ellison did rush for over 100 for the game. But no excuses he did that against backups. If you watch and actually know anyone from merrillville we knew that entire week. Seniors were going in to start 2nd on defense and would play almost the whole 2nd.

It was senior night as much as you may not believe me. Merrillville had no intention of playing that game except in the 1st and 4th qtr.

And even crown point coach said we moved through there defense like butter.


But I stand by what I said. Merrillville has the top defense in DAC. You will see it when they are the only DAC team standing after regionals

This is absolutely not even close to the truth. The same defensive kids that started the game played every snap. It was the Pirates Senior Night, but they played with the same starting line up against Crown Point that they did against Andrean and Hobart.

Key word is starting lineup. It was 13-7


Check the 2nd qtr. seniors in on defense.

Yeah, this is wrong. A junior DB came in for week 1/2 starter senior DB.

Rotated a couple DL, same rotation as week 1/2.

Sophomore LB went in for week 1/2 starting LB.

The Pirates did not do anything different with the line up against Crown Point.

It’s unfortunate you feel the need to stretch the truth on here and also the Facebook page because it really takes away from the successes the players and program do have.

Stick to the facts

Especially since Merrillville"s goal was to beat Crown Point.
This just another vouching for Sease post.

Also, I don't see Merrillville beating Crown point anytime soon

1. I can show you messages from merrillville coaches and players that said that game.. that the game didn’t matter! Exact words used were “ we don’t care win or lose to crown point because they are not a team that we will see in the tourney.” “Confrence titles don’t mean anything to us anymore as we are chasing a state title and you don’t need a confrence championship to win a state title”



2. If JV and freshman mean anything…. Merrillville smacked both of them this year. Plus as a portage coach and a Valpo coach has said on Facebook just recently. Merrillville JV QB (who is ineligible for varsity this year) might be the best quarterback the duneland has ever seen.. so we will wait and see. But hey some people look at JV and freshman others don’t.

1 I can give you specific conversations with Players that said their goal since March that the goal of the this season is to try to win state and be Crown point. Don't give me that B.S. nobody wants to lose. you vouching and giving excuses for Sease and the Pl@&Tion.

2. The Money is made on Varsity. They will not beat Crown point on the varsity level in the near future.
