  And not one of those teams you beat will win a first round playoff game...they can only thank the OHSAA that 8 teams get in!

  Good point. So last year Norwayne lost a game, and only beat 1 playoff team. This year they soundly beat 3 playoff teams.
• Bobcat

  Outscored opponents 52.9 pts to 7.8 pts. Only played the first string offense (and usually defense) in 2 - 4th quarters. Rarely threw a pass in the second half of any game.
• Bobcat

  I'm not sure of the exact numbers but they typically would run the first string offense for 2 drives in the 3rd quarter and almost never threw a pass in those 2 drives.

  CatsFan said "caliber of Norwayne," not "caliber of Norwayne's schedule"
  
  Neither schedule was especially strong, but they were close by comparison according to the final points. And, yes, they both beat playoff teams. Many are picking Hillsdale to get out of the first round as the lower seed.

  brookfield game move to girard
• thePITman

  

  Speaking of Girard, what happened to them this year? WOW! Going 11-2 last year and barely losing to Norwayne in the regional final in Norwayne's craziest playoff game (including the state championship) ... then in 2012 going 1-9. Wow. I know kids graduate and a talent pool can run dry, but that's one of the most drastic changes I've ever seen.

  Yea they were super young and inexperienced this year. They literally graduated probably 20 out of 22 starters plus their kicker.
• TeeGreen

  So who does Brookfield play now?? Beachwood or Edgewood??
• chaz6634

  beachwood and this is total b/s wtf are they thinking
• Im2Godly

  

  is beachwood any good?
• chaz6634

  yeah kinda like ursline of div 4 they lost to last years div 5 state champs kirklind in overtime 20-18 in week nine
• OkieDokie

  Beachwood is a lot better then Edgewood. Brookfield can and should beat them. They still should move the game so Brookfield has time to prepare

  i agree, and the game should be played at the pit. what did teams in high school do before anyone had turf? now all of a sudden we cant line a field if its wet, bull!
• OkieDokie

  I think if it stays Brookfield vs Beachwood then the game should be played Monday night at Adison

  hell yea!
• chaz6634

  they moved all the games from grass fields not just brookfield its been raining like a cow peeing on a flat rock for a week
• theButkus51

  

  yea we wouldnt want anyone to get their uniform muddy during a football game
• theButkus51

  

  we wont know which team brookfield plays till supreme court rules on it fri. the 2nd. lawyers and judges from ashtabula and cleveland duking it out.
• Im2Godly

  

  21 news just said an ashtabula judge ruled in favor of edgewood but how does this all work because wouldnt the astabula judge be overruling the power of the other judge, this is all a big mess

  They haven't moved EVERYTHING to turf, just some schools whose fields are completely trashed.

  Brookfield plays Edgewood tomorrow in Girard.
