Defending champion Lenox is ranked No. 1; Tri-County is No. 4.
Linder’s pick: Lenox, 28-18.
you’re nuts clinton only scoring 10 points an scoring over 30 points a game they are big an fast clinton will win
Not so fast my freind! Mr. Linder have you even seen clinton play? If you have not, you should make the trip friday.The defense may bend but it does not break.And if haven’t seen david johnson, it is a treat.Xavier better not come to their house with big heads or all they will be seeing is the back of #32.
Clinton-Xavier should be a great game. Again, no one seems to be giving Clinton the respect they deserve. Go back and read the comments of the Prairie and Cedar Falls coaches after their game with Clinton. These coaches have seen them first hand and think they are for real. Everyone is talking up the strength of the Xavier defense and rightfully so but keep in mind Clinton’s defense is allowing even fewer points. In fact it is the #1 rated defense in 4A. I think the final difference in this game will be the playmakers for Clinton. They are loaded with talent on the offensive side of the ball and have scored almost 150 more points than the Saints this year. This along with the added home field advantage will send Clinton into the semifinals against City High for what should be an outstanding game.
I don’t think you have to worry about Xavier getting big heads when on Clinton’s home page it says “Next beat down victim = Xavier Saints”
well i think the prediction is about right. dont piss off xavier. last 2 times it happened was when jeff spun the football on the basketball on xaviers court then when all the linnmar kids were talking a bunch of smack. so the whole next beat down victum is all around xavier so i bet the same results will happen this week….
U know wat u guys really do need is to acrually give an unbias opinio u had clinton to lose to a team that was 3-6 for there season then agian to cidar falls but u really need to pay attention to stats yes xavier might have a good defense but like some1 else already said you have alot of playmakers to watch on for clinton…… So before u say one thing make sure it’s unbias and yes some people in clinton are getting cocky and over confident but that doesnt mean everyone is or the team is……
I’m no Xavier fan particularly, but I’ll be shocked if they don’t just beat the tar out of Clinton. A Xavier-City High rematch in the semi-finals would probably be the best game played in the state this year.
I would love to see another epic Xavier/City High battle. Two classy coaches and programs going head to head!
In response to King of 2010.
I see you posted at 11:29pm….I am curious had you already been in the bottle or did you go to Clinton? Xavier will smoke them to meet up with City that will once again destroy a very cocky Wash team and coach.
Entertaining discussion on the 4A Xavier-Clinton game.
Clinton obviously is a team to be reckoned with, however, their stats are definitely schewed higher from playing a softer regular season schedule.
Home field advantage may mean an extra TD for the River Kings, but Xavier is playing very well right now and seems to be a complete football team in all phases of the game.
I am going 28-21 Xavier. Wash will close the gap but the Little Hawks will prevail by 10.
Well you boys from CR are in for a very rude awakinging,The River Kings will dominate at home.This team has more weapons than most teams know about(ask Cedar Falls)you will see the back of #32 and #3 all night long.Good luck but its gonna be a long drive back to CR!!
Oh I forgot River Kings 38-10
CF was down this year and Prairie was really down this year. No one was surprised by either score. I have not seen Clinton, they may be loaded. I have seen Xavier play A LOT OF TEAMS with a lot of weapons though. The road factor does not matter here either, ie: City High vs. Xavier last year in the playoffs. Clinton could win, like I said I haven’t seen them. If they do, it won’t be with a lot of points, it would be a score like 13-10, and it would take uncharactaristic turnovers by a sound Xavier offence.
I’d save some gas and watch the ich vs. Wash game if you want a good game this week. Xavier vs. ICH will be a great game.
YEAH, YOU CR FANS DONT EVEN HAVE A CLUE OF THE ATHELETS CLINTON HAS. IM TALKING DJ,MANGLER,TY,AND MO. PICK YOUR POISON. IF YOU REALLY WANNA SHOW SOMETHING MAN UP AND KICK THE BALL DEEP TO MO OR PUNT IT TO DJ AND DONT KICK AWAY FROM THEM LIKE YOUR OTHER MVC COUNTERPARTS. COME on XAVIER DONT BE SCAAAAAARED! KINGS DONT HIDE FROM NOBODY ASK CF. OH BY THE WAY SEEN XAVIER PLAY AND CF PLAY. CF IS A BETTER FOOTBALLTEAM. BETTER RB AND BETTER QB. YOU DID SEE THE OUTCOME OF THAT GAME DIDNT YOU.
Well . . . a lot of smack from both sides appearing here!
It should be a terrific game. Clinton IS for real, and the Saints should go in as a slight underdog. I welcome Jeff’s prediction, but think he’s being overly optimistic.
I saw snatches of the Clinton- Dav. Central game on Mediacom 22 earlier this year. In the first quarter, David Johnson touched the ball just seven times — and had five touchdowns. And Central was a playoff team with a winning record. I’ll be very concerned whenever he has the ball.
Still I think the Saints are capable of containing him if they don’t let him get loose in the open field. They kept Garman bottled up Monday. However, Johnson is much bigger — built more like Andre Dawson — and with better open field moves.
If the Saints come out flat as they did against Pleasant Valley, then River King Dad could be right — a long drive back to CR. But if they come out and jump on the Kings as they did the Lions, then the drive will be very happy.
Go Saints!
Bottom line is Solon would clobber any of those supposed power house 4A teams. Xavier is the best team parochial money can recruit though.
I think your right the fans will gain the most from this game because I also belive its gonna be a great game.We hope to get alot more fans fron CR than we did in the CF game and CR Prarie game.Our side of the house will be overflowing our new stadium.Good Luck to both teams!
Oh by the way Solon fan get real!!Yuor not 4 A for a reason!!
Spartan for Life:
Again with the Catholic school recruiting talk. Can’t you guys ever give that up? Didn’t you pull some kids from CR Prairie yourselves?
Look, the Xavier kids have been playing together since seventh grade … some of them even longer in Metro Youth. Before that, they went to school together at the Catholic elementary schools. Exactly how smart do you think Coach Schulte is to spot big-time football players at the age of six, to get them in the Xavier “recruiting” pipeline?
If Clinton can put 38 points on Xavier, this is indeed a topsy-turvy world. The Saints first-team defense gave up FOUR points a game over the last 5 1/2 games of the regular season (13 points over 22 quarters). I know Clinton has some outstanding offensive weapons, and they score a ton of points, but they haven’t seen this kind of defense yet this year. Clinton’s a scary team that has been getting better all year.
If Xavier comes out like they did against PV, they’ll be down at least three scores in the first quarter. If they play like they did against Linn Mar, I think they can beat any team in the state. We’ll have to see which game Xavier wants to play off the bat.
The way to really fix the parochial thing is to have them play up a class or make a separate parochial class. Half of the 2A quarter final teams are parochial. Now don’t tell me it is because they just happened to be better players or have better coaching.
Open enrollment is closed at Solon. Everyone actually lives in the school district.
Solon may not be 4A, but we can spell correctly River King Dad.
I only count three of the eight 2A teams as private schools (Western Christian, Carroll-Kuemper and Regina). Am I missing one?
And since your comment about “the best team parochial money can recruit” was aimed at Xavier … how do they play up a class? I guess they’ll be state champions of 5A every year.
Oh, them and Dowling, I mean.
I can’t say if other private schools recruit. My guess is Dowling probably does do that, but it’s only a guess, I don’t know. I can say, as I did above, that I know for a fact the Xavier kids have been together since elementary school. My son played football with Dylan Martin and Mitch Valentine and Joe Sayre at recess at St. Judes in first grade … pretty awesome recruiting to project how good they’d be as seniors!
But anyway Spartan for Life … I have little doubt Solon will take care of business and give Regina a smackdown on your way to another state title. Seriously, you guys have a great program and a great thing going there at Solon. Good luck the rest of the way.
I would say that Xavier, Assumption, and Dowling ARE playing up a class when you look at there enrollments.
Solon would be Prairie, East, West, Jefferson, and Senior. It hurt to put Prairie in that list, but only this year.
Cedar Rapids Washington beat Cedar Falls. They held them too 10 points.
To everyone who has been talking smack-
THIS IS WHY WE PLAY THE GAME!!!!
Everyone gets their shot on the field, and onl the winners get to the dome!
These comments are quite entertaining. Having seen all the MVC playoff teams and Clinton, I would have to say Xavier has the most dominant defense on this side of the state. It should be a great game, but Xavier’s playoff experience will translate to a 17-14 victory.
I agree Little Hawk Fan.. These comments are very entertaining especially from the Clinton side. Boy, I feel the River Kings are due for a rude awakening when the Saints come to town tomorrow night. Coach Schulte and his staff are one of the best in the state, and Clinton better get used to the feeling of running into a brick wall, because that’s basically what you get when you go up against the Saints D. I’m going to say Xavier by 14.
oh failed to mention cr bottled up d johnson to 44 yds rushing.but he ended up with 267 total yds.oops
in response to little hawks fan 2. Even brick walls can be broke!!!
Xavier’s coachs’ will not kick to hathway, johnson or mo. That would be foolish.
It’s funny, Cedar Falls came into the game against the Kings and people said the Kings could not score on them. Cedar Fall allowed on average 13/14 points a game before visiting the Kings, Clinton only put 37 points on the board. Cedar Falls keyed on Johnson and Mangler went off on them. This will be a good game on both sides of the field but Clinton has more offensive weapons than Xavier has seen all year, the KINGS will win this game!!
Its time to take it to the field,I hope after Clinton wins you guys will stop back and eat a little crow!Spartan sorry, must have hit a nerve with you, by the way how many classes above 8 man football is Solon?Kinda like girls basketball?? smacks over, time to play, see you in the Dome!!
CF doesn’t compare to Xavier this year.
Also, the ICH vs. Wash game is going to be great, that game could go either way. I really like what I have been seeing from Wash since the last time they played ICH. Back then they were a wing veer offence, now they are back to their pro-style. They are extremely fast, but their line is really getting after it too. That said I think ICH has the second best D in the league this year. Wash runs a similar D to Kennedy which had a lot of success against ICH. The Wash D is a little underrated I think. This is the game I can’t wait for.
“Solon’s enrollment is closed”
Who are you kiddin one of your best basketball and baseball players last year lives between Mt Vernon and Lisbon
Actually, I believe the Spartans could compete in 4A. Enrollment is the only reason the classes are done that way. I came from a 1A school before the districts, and we played and dominated in a 2A conference. We beat a team (Solon) that defeated a 3A semifinalist that year. Translatively, we could have been a 1A school in a 3A playoff spot. Now, of course the game must be played. How about the fact that our sophomores (Class 1A) played City High once (4A) and beat them? It happens. Solon is quite the team. Watch them if you get a chance.
Linder better find a job that he is better at than picking scores!!!
so what kind of score do Clinton fans predict?
Clinton your a one hit wonder. My fellow mvc Fans lets let the boys talk on the turf. GO City GO Saints GO WASH! Clock strikes 12 tonight clinton just like the saints made it strike twelve on Linn Mar. HAHAH
We will FINISH!!! THE MAC IS ON ITS WAY!!
Well…it’s nice to see that all this excitement hasn’t gone to our heads…
I’m no expert when it comes to high school football. I have seen almost all of Clinton’s home games this year and have never seen Xavier play. That being said, anyone who thinks that Clinton will roll over Xavier is borderline insane. I’m a fan of King football, but look at the teams for who they are.
Xavier comes from a much harder conference and has excelled. Throw in that they typically have one of the better teams in the state every year and you know know that you will have an extremely tough and motivated opponent.
The Kings come from a MAC that was down this year, true, but have also proven themselves time and again that they have the mental toughness to bounce back. Against Davenport Assumption they could have folded. In stead they bounced back and dominated the second half. Against CF they could have been content on making it this far and checked out for the rest of the game. But no, they rallied and defeated a very sound CF team.
The Kings are for real, but so are the Saints. Bottom line is this: if the game is a blow out, Xavier wins. If the game is close, flip a coin. I offer 2 scores for review. the blowout: 38-3 (Xavier) and the close: 28-27(could go either way). Turnovers and big plays will decide this contest as much as the coaching. I feel honored to have been at the Clinton-CF game in what I think was one that will go down in CHS history as one of the best ever played. I can only hope that tonight’s game, no matter who wins, can live up to Monday’s.
Go Kings…But good luck to both teams. PLay hard and make this a game for the ages.
The Casual Observer!
That is the smartest thing I have read on here this week.
This has nothing to do with the games, but it is the only football related place that I can post this comment. In regards to the all conference selections:(and before someone responds by saying “don’t bother, they con’t mean anything anyway”, my response would be “then why do it?”) Wouldn’t it make more sense to have players represent each position? The MVC-Valley has 2 QB’s, 4 RB’s, 1 TE, 1 WR, and 3 lineman. I feel for the lineman that busted their butt to make way for those 4 RB’s. I know it would be hard to decide, but really 4 RB’s? As for D, how can a team who gave up 39 points per game (Waterloo East)have 3 all conference defensive players? Total tackles should not be the only criteria. Not sure how the selection process works, but if your really gonna give out awards I would think they would be a little more meaningful. Otherwise just stop doing it. Not much difference in the Mississipi Division with 4 QB’s. No disrespent to the kid from Waterloo West, but what D1 scholarship offers does he have? And the sophomore from IC West, he’s good. But to call him a first team all conference QB just doesn’t seem right. Did someone just try to pick the best players from each team? Is that really what all-conference is all about? Make more sense of the award or stop giving it!
38-10 River Kings
From what i’ve heard, the all-conference teams are selected by the schools. A team gets ___# of first teams, ___# of second team, and ___# of honorable mentions based on where you finish in the conference rankings. Then coaches decide which players they have that deserve the honors. Each teams puts the players on who deserve it most. If you’re looking for kids who have D1 offers we couldn’t feild a team.
The kid from ICW shouldn’t have been put on the All-Conference list. He wasn’t a full time player, he rotated with a couple other quarterbacks. When he was in, he was really good though.
Pretty safe predictions observer,but get real this team is as good as any and very well coached.they dont grow kids better in another conference some teams do have the advantage of offering a great education and a great price that is if you have a talent that they need.but thats another story lets go watch the games and hope nobody gets injured and may the best team s win!!GO KINGS *FINISH*
They don’t grow better athletes in other conferences, true. But they do grow better athletes in Cedar Rapids. 6 metro 4A high schools, 4 played last Monday. 5 4A high schools in the Quad Cities, 0 played last Monday. Cedar Falls/Waterloo/Dubuque, 2 quality programs combined. In Cedar Rapids what happens is the steel sharpens the steel. To compete in Cedar Rapids football the bar has been set high and this metro area and West Des Moines are the hot beds of Iowa High School Football. So yes, those two areas do grow better football players.
River King Dad!
How you can make a statement like that and just say you are finished. The Xavier Kids have been playing together since 7th grade. And we believe in giving our kids the best education we can in a Catholic environment. You make it sound like your kids are underprivelidged and can’t get a break.
Your team may be “as good as any” but they still have to play the game. They have no common opponents except Prairie and that can be spun in lots of ways. We scored 35 points on them and they had negative yards untill late in the game when they went 50 yards and were stopped by the 2nd team defence. So take away the points they scored on you and it should be even. But it doesn’t work that way.
I think it will be a great game and I hope both teams play their best. Then the winner is a step closer to representing the East side of the state in the DOme.
Any score preditions are nothing more than a guess.
Good luck to both teams!
CR Football Fan..Cedar Rapids a hot bed for football? HA!, when was the last time a PUBLIC CR School won a state title? When you talk of hot beds for football it’s West Des Moines and Iowa City
Well Johnny, I am judging Cedar Rapids based on the fact they have ALOT of quality programs every year. Name another metro area with the number of quality teams we have, not quad cities, not Des Moines, not waterloo/Cedar Falls, not Dubuque, not Council Bluffs, not Sioux City. Yes, West Des Moines.
ICH is really good most years. ICW, outside of a stretch in the 90’s, has never been good. Having one good team doesn’t make you a football hot bed, sorry Johnny.
State Football Titles since 1990
Iowa City 6
Cedar Rapids 0
State Title Appearances
Iowa City 8
Cedar Rapids 1
I’m not counting Catholic schools, but if you want to do that, the number would become even higher for Iowa City with Regina’s recent success.
You’re right, Cedar Rapids is the hot bed of high school football.. again thanks for a solid laugh!!
Johnny what happened in 2006?
14-0 xavier hope they take it to em in the second half so the cocky clinton fans can stfu. Johnny, what about Xavier 07?
River King Dad….As an arch rival of the Xavier Saints, I still truly enjoyed listening to the dominant victory over a very average Clinton football team. Don’t hang your head to low…atleast a MAC team made it this far!
River Kings were beat tonight by a very classy well coached team!If we had to lose this year im glad it was to the Saints.Good luck at the dome and thank you for being a great visiting team.
Clinton folk are quiet…. From what I heard on the radio…seemed to be quite a good game..too bad i wasnt there, would of thought the score would have been closer. Best of luck to the saints against city high. Clinton should be proud to make it this far..theres always next year!
The River Kings had a very good year. I did not go to the game tonight, but I’m glad the game was well played.
kudos to xavier. what a butt whooping. good luck!!!!!
River King Dad:
I came here to give you a hard time about your 38-10 prediction, but I see your gracious and classy commendation to the Saints team and their fans.
Thank you. You should be very proud of the Clinton team and their amazing accomplishments this year. The River Kings played a hard-fought game tonight. You have a lot of talented young men playing there at Clinton High. I saw some of their comments on KWQC after the game, as well … not just talented, but very classy and well-spoken, too!
We’ll humbly take your congratulations, and all the luck you can spare us on our trip to the Dome next week.
Congrats to you on a great season!
Thanks guys,we all love this sport and love to chatter,Its been a fun year in Clinton.What a spectactular sight it was seeing almost 6000 fans at the game watching our young men play the game.We were very impressed with the fan and family following the Saints had.Please take all of our leftover luck and kick some butt in the dome we will be pulling for you to go all the way,but…..now its time to start thinking about how were gonna whoop ya in baseball ,,Take car and good luck..River King proud dad
RIVER KING DAD- you are so cocky.
Clinton talked a lot of smack, good to see them lose, great season however for them. It was great to see all of those Xavier fans there, same with clinton.
SR# your a dumbass
WHY DO YOU KEEP TALKING RIVER KING DAD? SR#1 said nothing wrong. you lost get over it, you had a great season, why can’t you just be happy with that and get off here! I hope your son reads all the stuff you post and is embarrassed! I know if you were my dad i would be ashamed and would tell you to shut the f up!
why did all of you guys think clinton was good…they play in the mac…the worst division in the state
hey river king dad..what was the score????…o yea i think it was 28-6 clinton was only good cause they were in the mac….if they had xaviers schedule they would be 6-3
hey johny…what was the most recent state title for a iowa city team..i belive they havnt won for a while and xavier got one 3 yrs ago
For anyone who reads these posts I would just like to say that the previous 3 posts by “Guest” are not representative of the Xavier High School community. They are most likely posted by an immature high school student because only someone so insecure would feel the need to respond to criticism in such an uninformed manner. Think about what you’re saying, if you’re saying that Clinton is not that good then it takes away from the impressive win by Xavier, all they did was beat a team from “the worst division in the state”. You probably have not watched any other Clinton games because if you did (assuming you knew about football at all) you would immediately recognize their great team speed and fundamentals. Also the MAC is not a division like the Mississippi division of the MVC is a division, it is a conference in which the teams all play each other. Let River Kings Dad and Johnny think whatever they will, who cares? If you had any idea about the Xavier football program you would just keep your MOUTH SHUT
these guys are just really cocky
friday night score so far cr 3..iowa city 7
hawk your a DORK!!
cr 3 iowa city high 14 2nd qt
3rd qt cr 3 city high 21 ouch!
well guest I guess you should not have got such a kick outta the clinton score because it looks like CR will be beat by about the same amount,To the Saints GREAT SEASON!!! HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL IN BASEBALL.
Glad that Xavier could represent the MVC and congrats on a good season. Now, GO LITTLE HAWKS! TAKE STATE! Just wish we could be there to cheer you on. We miss Iowa Prep football and WE LOVE CITY HIGH!!!
To all of you that did not see the game or who did see the game, please rewatch Riverking vs Xavier on demand when it comes out. They probably won’t air this game, but just in case they do, please watch it very close. David johnson scored the first touch down right off the back and the Ref, right away start cheating. THAT WAS AWEFUL how they cheated. you will see that Clinton scored the first two touchdown in which the Ref claim face mask penalty on clinton. The Ref claim he did not see the turnover on Xavier inwhich Clinton caught the ball and ran for a touchdown. the Ref said he did not see it. another penalty on Xavier when two of Xavier team pull David johnson by the face mask in plain view and the Ref claim he did not see that either. how can any one Win a game when the Ref cheats and give the game to your opponient. I think the Ref should have been fired in the middle of the game. with the game being postpond
the River KINGS won that game. it was Clinton 14- Xavier 0 in the first quarter of the game. the Ref gave our points to Xavier both time by giving the ball to Xavier. I hope their conscious work on them.
HEY GUEST,
Xavier didn’t Win, The Ref cheated, I wonder where the REF was from.
I know you know where they are from
I hope in the future they make rules for Refs that cheats.
oh, its on youtube,riverkings vs xavier. the first touch down by david johnson..
the only touch down they gave us is the one in the 4th quarter, 6 points. we score before that. the riverking lost hope when the Ref start cheating. all that hard work and the Ref cheated them out of it.
Leave your response!
