BayAreaSection:

your right about the kennedy-richmond but skyline has been on the come up the last 2 years. beating them twice and the 1st 4 games of the season are enough to make a strong case for a regional birth.

8/31 at Bishop O’Dowd 5:30 (1st game is the toughest)
9/8 vs Minico-Idaho at Oak Ridge 4pm (9-1 last season)
9/14 vs West Valley-Cottonwood 7pm (Calpreps has them as northern sec. d1 #6)
9/21 at Oak Grove-San Jose 7pm (always one of top CCS teams)

Good to see Mack schedule against 2 known teams however, West Valley-Cottonwood & Kennedy-Richmond plus the rest of the OAL Teams? Not that impressive even though the OAL scheduled intersectional games. Got some known teams while there are some head scratchers.

If Mack can go undefeated they should have a legit argument with trips to Bishop O’Dowd and Oak Grove-San Jose on the schedule.

The Oakland Sections shud join the NCS & just have their Section as a league or their teams to venture to new ones in the NCS. I doubt we will see any teams from the Oakland/San Francisco Sections in the Regionals any time soon!

There are ton of scenario’s this year in the EBAL and it is safe to say DLS is a lock for running the table against EBAL Teams.

The NCS knows that DLS is a ‘competitive anomaly’ and should NOT be in the running for the EBAL Title. The EBAL provides the best competition from top to bottom across all sports which is why it’s a great league for DLS/Crondelet … with that said, we all know that private schools have advantages over public schools. DLS Football has parlayed their success to becoming a football factory and a program that should compete on a national level each and every season. It’s an unfortunate competitive reality for DLS Football.

The simple reality is that there are few schools that have a recruiting base a perfect as DLS. The demographics across Contra Costa County are perfect for building a football team … low income, high income, black, white and then factor in the best coaches in the business.

I suppose if they finally embrace a national approach to scheduling … they might run across a few other private schools that have a similar geography to build a great football team (St. Thomas Aquinas High).

I believe SRV’s defense is going to be pretty good in 2012. Those LB’s are tough and they typically are a pretty physical team. The offense will be productive again too. Birse has tons of potential. I’m pulling for the Wolves to beat those two very good SJS teams.

Big Joe, We all know the chances of beating or even competing with DLS football are very high. We know the standard DLS football has set is one very few schools can achieve. We may whine on occasion because we feel the frustration of not being able to beat them but our kids remain friends with and respect what DLS achieves, and above all else, work hard to improve. We’re ok with our effort. What we aren’t ok with is your arrogance. The irony is, your football team is not arrogant. If you think we don’t have the right of optimism or that the EBAL is not competitive enough for your school , then find another solution, but don’t belittle our team effort because DLS has a winning football team. Things don’t say the same forever.

Does SRV beat Logan in regular season this year (week 2 I think)?

I saw both games last year- not at all impressed with SanRamonValley. They will have a lot of rebuilding this year.
