Week 6-7 why are we talking about encinal and Alameda? Let’s talk about some real teams. The ebal & bval are the only leagues that have legitimate contenders. Deer valley and Cal are on a collision course for that number 2 spot in div. 1.

Any takers?

Easy Alameda Man, stick to the island blog. Yes, Salesian isn’t what it used to be and they have scheduled weak opponents in the past for many years, they have also played some top notch teams and won, 28 straight is still 28 straight, Salesian would tar and feather any Alameda team, they are way to discliplined and well coached. They are also putting players to the college level. Bye the way, they lost to a superior team in El Cerrito who is undeated. El Cerrito would beat Encinal and Alameda teams combined.

EC is good!!! You have to admit that this year’s EC team is better than the teams they had over the past two years, while Salesian’s teams of the past two years were far better than this years team in terms of depth, speed, and toughness. Too bad that they weren’t out the BFL sooner!!

Salesian can’t hide in the BFL anymore! Time to play some real teams Nightingale. The 28 straight wins they had were a joke and EC just proved it friday night.

Doesn’t look good for DFAL teams Miramonte & Las Lomas in making the playoffs this year. Each team is 2-4 and one sure way to get in would be for either team to go 3-1, but the way each team is playing that is not likely to happen. On top of that, they play each other.

Las Lomas can ensure themselves of eligibility by defeating Dublin at home this Friday night which will give them a 1-1 record in D2 games this season. However, I just don’t see the Knights winning this game.

For Miramonte it’s even more difficult. If they lose this Friday night at Acalanes (The Dons are heavily favored) they would need to win their final 3 games to make the playoffs.

It could be the loser of the 10/26 game between these two teams will be knocked out of the playoffs.

I was down on Logan last year, but must admit I am impressed with their schedule this year as well as their efforts so far against that schedule. DO very easily could have been 3-1 going into that game last friday. Although they lost, it should make them a more battle tested team come playoff time having to deal with that adversity. Unless the brackets are set up screwy, I see no reason why a DLS/Logan final still isn’t possible and look forward to it.

#54…UC Rancher….One other thing about the Del oro/Logan game….The Colts had so many pentalities that…. most 10 and 15 yarders that aided Del Oro and held back Logan…If..(IF)…the pentalities would not have been committed….there was a better then even chance that Logan would have won and there wouldn’t have been any OT….Any number of times I saw Warren Long appear to be breaking out and if so he would have been off to the races…He had a 54 yard run that put Logan deep in DO territory, but the Pentalities killed his effort….The Pentalities is what Logan has too work on….

i really hope logan gets on the dela salle bracket in the playoffs. this way they can finally get the taste of the green machine putting up points on them. hopefully they make it past the first round. logan is good but they have been playing some down teams this year. it’s not their fault, it’s just the way things worked out. b-high and heritage is really down, and sl has not been the program they were from previous years. now logan will have to play the mval teams, which i think will not get them ready for the playoffs. i don’t see anybody in the mval challenging logan. last year logan was not in no way ready for the playoffs. logan will not be ready for the playoffs playing the mval teams. i wish them luck, and hope they get to past the 1st round.
