Comments about ‘High school football: Colts parlay solid practices into easy win’

easy to shut down pv passing game cause they dont have one saw them last week i think dixie and snow are better this year

Will the down southers now realize that Pine View isn't as good as originally thought?

he is always bragging about pv,s big hogs up front they played like little wilburs tonight

I think Coach B could have been one of the best additions that Pine View has had. He is a great coach, bar none. I mean he didn't play for Lavell Edwards, like two people to remain namless this time, buy B was a great catch for the Panthers. You have done a great job B and even though it is with circle black I am happy for you.

Hats off to Cottonwood. You've got a great team and this may be your year to steal Timpview's thunder. CW has a big play offense and a more than adequate defense. This team has numbers just like Timpview last year (big, strong, fast, athletic kids at virtually every position) and they're well coached.

Having seen both teams play now, CW has a more explosive offense (Romero and Sofele are flat out better than their counterparts at TV), but TV's defense is a bit better in my opinion.

Pine View had no passing attack and was never in this game even with 300 yards rushing. The absence of wideout Robert Evans hurt, but even with him PV clearly doesn't have the numbers to hang with the Cottonwoods and Timpviews. My message to PV (and Dixie) would be this: good coaching is not enough. With 3A size student bodies (1000 students) you need to either get bigger, allow open enrollment or do both. Otherwise you need to convince our all wise UHSAA to put you back in 3A where you belong.

If Cottonwood can bring that level of intensity to every game, they will beat Timpview in the final.

Cottonwood played awesome last night. It is too bad that Pineview did not compete a little harder. We were expecting a closer game. If Cottonwood continues to play like they have the first three games, who knows, maybe this could be their year!!!

glad to see the south come north and not just for the title games...now they can go back down south and know for a surety that they can't hang with the north and we don't have to read about it all year...thanks

I attended the game last night and I was impressed with Cottonwood. I've commented on the lack of discipline in the past, especially last year.
This year the coach has turned their focus to execution, and it shows. I sat behind the bench, and the players were either involved in what was going on on the field, or getting feedback/direction from the coaches.
That sideline behaved a lot like the Urban Meyer sidelines, no crap, everyone into the game.
The only distractions were non players. There were several that had jobs on the sidelines, and they are not the problem. The problem were a few non essential civilians. Not sure if they were non starters, ex players or what, but they were the only ones that seemed to distract from the teams focus.
Overall the players and team looked great, and they look very well prepared. Good job coaches, starting with Thomas.

At least Pineview got crushed early instead of waiting fot the championship game.

CW, great game! CW.....1 of top 5 teams in state right now, including 5A. Martinez didn't impress me too much against Layton, but that tailback found some key holes in the last 7 minutes when CW took the game right out of Layton's hands.

You guys are showing you are not just 1 of the toughest teams in 4A, but in the state overall. A lot of people thought Layton choked losing to a 4A team. Yeah, Layton could've done things better and missed a couple last minute TD receptions, but bottom line, you guys took it from Layton on their howe field.

Hey?,, where did all the mighty pv fans go? I mean... last week they had like 30 comments on their own aricle.

what are you smoking? pine view will blow out dixie and snow they're just not as good as cottonwood

I'm a TV fan, and although bias of course, I think the main thing that separates CW and TV is not talent, nor has it ever been, it's coaching.

TV has two college level coaches, while CW has a booster calling the plays. This matchup difference was magnified in the playoffs last year.

Not saying TV will win again this year, but I think coaching is a HUGE advantage for timpview.

You could"nt be more right.. C-W has it all,size and athletic.

To:

"WOW"

As usual, you can't have a conversation without bringing TV into the mix.

How about if TV brings the intensity that only they can bring then CWood will be beaten, as they have been, by TV, in the last 2 years, DECIDEDLY, I might add.

Keep wishing, though. Perhaps your dreams may come true...ot they might become nightmares?

No CWood fan can start claiming they can take down timpview. maybe they will this year, but until you prove it on the field (as you obviously haven't) then better not be making those statements.

BLAH BLAH BLAH.
Don't be quick to set up a championship game now just because you took care of a mediocre team from way down south. If the gouts win the region outright then we'll see wassup. You still have to face the REMOOS and of course the LEPATI G FILOS CUH! Don't think about Timpview when Timpview is thinking about BYU.
GO LEOPARDS!

Blow out Dixie and SC you better just shut it and worry about Las Vegas!

CW, flawless game! Good luck the rest of the way.
In this blog, a few of us observed the seriousness of the loss of Evans to PV--his ability to stretch the field, to get off the jam, to defeat double coverage, for being the go-to guy on 3rd and 4th down, etc. In a feeding frenzy of fan denial, we were shouted down. We read how he was good, but not THAT good; That he had talent but PV had the talent to replace him; That younger receivers would "step up"; That a mention of his loss was disloyal at worst, irrelevant at best. PV's 3-game passing yards totals 307, 1 TD. Evans' output, same time last year? 12 catches, 285 yards, 3 TD.
We are STAUNCH Circle Black fans! We hope PV can go 10-0 the rest of the way! But perhaps now our past obserations about the loss of Evans will be understood as realistic assessment, instead of an irrational "love affair." And his loss isn't PV's only problem. "Southern Utah Fan"'s assessment of the PV-CW game is dead on. PV's got some work to do before Las Vegas.
