Horrible sportsmanship on the Rebels coaching sideline by grownups who should know better, which was then being mimicked by a couple of the players after the game was called prematurely. Embarrassing, actually. The takeaway from the whole thing is that Rupoop, Igloo, and S2S (and the age-eligible Rebels) are all one in the same, with Express playing on another level. And you know Express is dominating when kids 18-32 on the depth chart are on the field. As for Legacy, which won in the other age-groups but threw a goosegg in 2025, you have to wonder where they go from here. I guess the only unknown at this point is 91, and how long Rebels can get away with supplementing their actual team with bring-downs and honorable guests.

Express is definitely alone atop the pyramid. Nobody close. Not sure where you get your info about the Rebels roster. Legacy/Igloo parent? You should be scrambling to get your son out of that burning dumpster.
