IA HS Football: Semifinals at the Dome
- Thread starter CyFan61
- Start date
Wash QB threw a really nice pass for the last score. Something you don't see a lot of in HS games.
Hell of a season for my alma mater of Waukee.
Still think the most classless type of human being is the average Dowling mom. Majority of them were very snobby, and one of them tried to push me over so she could get outside to smoke a cigarette..

I know, I have almost been trampled myself by a gaggle of Dowling Moms smoking cigarettes. :skeptical:

That Waukee-Dowling game was honestly pretty damn good. Outside of the first four minutes, in which pretty much everything that could go wrong did for Waukee, it was a very tight ball game. Gotta think Waukee went home feeling like they let that one get away.
As for Friday's championship, I don't see Wash beating Dowling. Wash simply doesn't have strong enough quarterback play, IMO; that's not a knock on Snitker, as he's not a quarterback and is only handling that job out of necessity. But Wash's defense is pretty good, the ground game is salty, and they've got some damn good receivers. If Rocky Lombardi were still there, this would be setting up as one of the best 4A title games in recent memory, IMO.
As it is, I'll take Dowling by 14-21 points.
