unpaid D-1 football

I couldn't argue with you, Rocket. There are some big games left to play that may or may not be telling. Is there anyone left on Mililani's schedule that could upset them? Punahou still has to get through Kam. I still wonder if the lack of games against quality opponents could hurt Punahou in the long wrong, though I do understand a team trying get as far as it can without getting beat up along the way.

Punahou will get through Kamehameha. St Louis showed that Kamehameha's D can't stop anyone in the ILH D1. Kamehameha's O is respectable and improving, particularly in the passing game. But they still won't be able to overcome Punahou's D.

The big shocker of the night, IMO, was Kailua's near victory against Moanalua.

How in the world did they win? it was 33-6 when they announced it on OC16, and now they came back and won? daaaaaaang.

I would blame it on Kailua's D. Wasn't Kailua up by 3 TDs in the 4th qrtr? Kailua's D has no excuse for letting Moanalua come back from that far back, in the final qrtr. Meanwhile, Kailua as a team has no excuse for letting Moanalua score 28 unanswered points.

I believe St Louis played Mililani the closest.

Well, St Louis' D is too weak. St Francis scored 19 points and gained over 200 yds offense--almost all through the air--against them. St Francis! And, consider that Campbell is primarily a passing team. I think you have to rank Campbell ahead of St Louis.

Yeah but Campbell only put up 28 points compared to St Louis 47 points against Mililani...Measure the levels of play on a team both Campbell and St Louis played...not no Saint Francis team where starters are pulled out coz the Saints SMASHED them by the half...

Btw there's not a team in this state that is on Punahou's level...Punahou has a complete team...Mililani has sum firecrackers on offense but their D is mediocre..."IF" Mililani makes it to the states, their offense will be facing the same Defense that put the clamps on Malepeai and made Rod York pull plays from a bag of tricks out of desperation...the buffs only lost two true starters on D...trust if St. Louis put 47 up on them, guess what the Buffs gonna do...Blow the roof off

So far so good for Punahou but round two with St. Louis will be more telling. I also think Mililani is a little better this year offensively then last year so a complete blow out against Punahou is unlikely but Punahou does win convincingly.

If Punahou beats Kam, then Kam and St. Louis will have to play off for the right to play Punahou again. There may not be a round 2 for St. Louis. I agree though that Mililani will be a very challenging opponent for who ever they end up playing. Doesn't mean that Punahou shouldn't be favored, but I don't expect anyone to dominate Mililani.

Just to mention: We can't call St Louis the Saints anymore, because that's now St Francis' official nickname. Isn't that ridiculous? I don't see why St Francis couldn't keep their original nickname, Troubadors. The troubadors of medieval Europe weren't females, which makes it a mystery why St Francis selected that nickname in the first place, since it was an all-girls' school. Another problem created by St Francis' selection of "Saints" as its official nickname, is that it screws-up St Louis' touchdown song: "When The Saints Go Marching In". Now that song celebrates a St Francis touchdown! Is St Louis still using that song as its touchdown song? It seems kind of ironic when St Louis plays St Francis, that each time St Louis scores, the band plays, "When the Saints--(St Francis)--Go Marching In"!
Anyway: Were all of St Francis' points scored in garbage time, after St Louis' 1st-string D was pulled-out? I don't think so. Two of their three TDs were scored in the 1st half.

Headliners this week,

No.4.Kahuku and No.9 Waianae.I just have to believe that Red Raider players and coaches will figure it out and beat Waianae.

No.5 Campbell and No.6 Farrington. Govs lost their starting QB to disqualification for this upcoming weekend's games.
Campbell win,IMHO.

No.7 Leilehua and No.10 Kaiser. Going with the Mules in a close one.

Saturday thoughts,

68-0,42-28,54-34....The ILH principals will probably vote to approve the separation of D-I and D-II football competition.

Nice job by Leilehua to lock up no worse than a number two seed for the OIA playoffs.Looks like Kaiser might draw Kapolei out of the blue.Still some things to be sorted out with Saturday games still to come.

Regardless, the 42-28 was not a rout and was a close game until the start of the 4th quarter. I hope the rumors you heard about Iolani are correct.

And looking ahead to the Punahou-Kamehameha game, the pressure is all on Kamehameha. Even a win by them wouldn't guarantee them a bye. Their offense should give them somewhat of a chance against Punahou, but the defense needs massive improvement. I think if Punahou takes them seriously and does not come in cocky, they should win, probably big.

Hilo at 8 is a good rating. Their defense is playing well but their offense is really erratic at this point of the season.

Kamehameha's O is decent, but it's not going to overcome Punahou's D. As for Kamehameha's D, it's weaker than the O, which is ironic. Just before the season began, the D was supposed to be Kamehameha's strength. Then St Louis' O showed that Kamehameha's D isn't anything like it was cracked-up to be. At this point, I would say Kamehameha's O has shown-up their D. Unfortunately, none of all that will matter against Punahou. Punahou by 21.
