OT: The GameTimeCT High School Football 2018 Top 10:

I still think these towns should get over themselves and set up a logical regionalization plan. Ansonia and Derby are headed in that direction (if they can get by those whose only objection is combining with their historical football rival.) Schools need to have a certain enrollment to offer a more varied curriculum and extra-curricular activities.

wow. If Ansonia and Derby joined together, that would have huge implications for football. Ansonia would be bouncing between M & L instead of S

It would make sense, especially as they were once one town (derby and then Birmingham before the split in the late 1880's) before trains and then the industrial revolution invaded The Valley. There is just so much bad blood, rivalries (often intra-family) that go beyond Ryan and Nolan Fields into businesses and even less desirable elements, and failed attempts over the last nearly two centuries (the last discussion to merge Derby and Ansonia high schools that I am aware of was in the late 80's when both cities were looking to renovate/replace their current schools. Eventually, Ansonia built a new one and Derby renovated. Football is just the tip of that iceberg.

If they are terrible Pomperaug might be looking at a 3-0 start - stopped 2 point conversation by East Lyme in OT Friday to hang on 42-41.

I haven't seen Pomperaug yet but with their schedule they could realistically go 7-3 if they play well

so pomperaug still isn't very good lol.

I'll just leave this here for everyone. We should be keeping an eye on this kid

 
Don't look now, but RHAM is off to best start in school history. 3-0 have beaten Tolland, Northwest Catholic, and Avon by a combined 91-7.

The LL playoffs are shaping-up to be epic this year with #1 Dairen, #2 Greenwich, #5 Shelton, #6 East Hartford, #7 New Canaan, #8 Newtown, and #10 Southington all in the mix. St. Joe's will just have to go back and focus in embarrassing Class M again this season.

LL will be a bloodbath. Sheehan is probably the only M team that has a chance against St Joes. I didn't think they were anything special last year, but they look much improved this season. Bogan is one of the fastest players I've seen in the CIAC this year. Someone needs to get him to eat and lift more though, he could use another 30lbs.

I live out of state and never followed HS football. Who is the kid and what are his stats and year?

His name is Nick Henderson and he plays at Brookfield. He is definitely a college level player but it's probably too early to tell if he's good enough for FBS football. He's a JR and has rushed for about 650 yards in 3 games this year.

Big win for Pomperaug tonight. I thought Weston was better than Masuk so that's a damn good week-week improvement

I was nervous about this one. Pomp denied another two pointer towards end of game.

Kids are pumped. It's been a while since they won 3 games in a year...
