I agree. Would of loved to see them against Sallies this year. Just as big upfront with much better skill players. However, play calling and scheme advantage would go to Sallies and thats putting it lightly.Caravel is the best team regardless of division.
I don‘t agree or disagree because I haven’t seen enough of Caravel, but if DMA & Bonner were “fill in“ games last year for the Sals at the beginning of the season, maybe the Sals and Bucs can play next year. I have a friend who thinks the Sals were really good but believes it was a one off and the Sals will drop back next year. No discussion now…..but I see this gumbah today and will try to follow his logic. I will report back to this august body of scholars in a few hours in a separate thread.I agree Caravel best team in state and they would beat Sallies
It wasn't Smyrna's year...get over it.To quote Nick Saban, Caravel would run through them like s... through a tin horn. Sallies gave up big points to bad teams all season and got lucky Smyrna coaches cut off there noses to spite their faces (sticking with things not working because they just won't change their minds). Caravel's defense would be up for the challenge of the one trick pony offense. Caravel also learned a thing or two from last year's loss regarding not changing schemes. Caravel by 2 touchdowns....easy.
You weren't being honest about watching Caravel play if you believe that to be true. If Archmere was able to shut him down every single time they played (2x in 2021-22 and once in 2022-23), why wouldn't Caravel lol.I honestly can’t believe anyone who watched both Sallies & Caravel play in person would think Caravel would beat them. They’d give them a good game for the first half - no doubt.
They’re both good teams this year but Alleyne would put up 200 yards and 3 TDs alone against them.

I was referring to Class 3AWhat is Division 3 in Delaware?
Delaware has Class 3A, Class 2A and Class 1A; there are Districts (divisions) within each Class
Is it possible that the top division was down once again? Or is that not possible?https://www.salliessports.com/game26924
Here is a recap of the game trap was talking about…it was in 2009. There was no really outstanding D1 program that year. CR, St. Marks, A.I. & the Sals were fairly equal. AI was undefeated going into the tournament. Sals won 2 close games in playoffs. Caravel was solid. Didn’t get in the D2 tourney because they lost to Red Lion in the last game of the year.
I think because that Middletown and Smyrna were "relatively" down this year, it may give us the impression that 3A was down. Having said that, Dover was great until the injuries. Cape was way up and Central was certainly competitive as usual.Is it possible that the top division was down once again? Or is that not possible?
Not a fan of the "when in doubt let the computer figure it out". Sallies didn't play a team that was top to bottom solid like Caravel is all year. CA is just as big upfront with one way starters on the O and D line. Skill players are better and very gritty. Sallies also lost to Dover and should have lost to Smyrna. Caravel didnt play a close game all year but the computer said Sallies would win
You’re referencing Alleyne’s stats when was on an inferior DMA team playing out of position at QB? Come on man.You weren't being honest about watching Caravel play if you believe that to be true. If Archmere was able to shut him down every single time they played (2x in 2021-22 and once in 2022-23), why wouldn't Caravel lol.
