Why aren't more people talking about this team? The young gentlemen are solid team. Not saying they would or could beat gordon, but the other teams ranked higher absolutely they vould.
Aquilla?

They haven’t even played a top 20 team. Nobody knows how good they really are. But that’s a bold statement you just made either way. I remember they didn’t start in top 10 last year either, but because of light weight schedule they moved into top 10 and stayed for most of season. They truly didn’t belong there, and that became apparent towards the end of the season when they played Abbott in District and again in playoffs. 45’d both times I believe. Maybe they are the real deal this year but that’s where the skepticism comes from. I wish they would schedule some tougher pre-district games next year. Sure would help.

I hear ya, but unfortunately the common theme for the last 5 or 6 years is that there is a dominate team in both D1 and D2.
Aquila has a good team and could beat the vast majority of other teams but as you said, they are not beating Gordon. So really, that’s all anyone cares about.
I hate it that that’s the way it is because I’d love to go to Jerry world and see some good games. It just takes the fun out of things with both games (as in years past) being blowouts.

Actually sir they have atleast according to the rankings. No not the toughest schedule out there but not trash either. (Side note all the below listed games were won by mercy rule.) Also I'm in NO way comparing them to Gordon.
