Great Job San Juan. Hey I was just looking at SJ record and I dont think any team has scored on their starting D since week 2...some teams have scored but from the looks of things its been late 4th Q with the Broncos getting some of the 2nd string in for some valuable playing time. I know some of the South teams are loaded and its going to be a dog fight to win it all this year, but I dont think SJ has ever went into the play-off undefeated and not won it all. Still have that one more regular season game keep your heads up and take it one game at a time and as coach Lee said dont overlook anyone....Good Luck men.

Not a surprise. I believe South Sevier beat Moab 10 to 0. San Juan wins 37 to 7 with Moabs last touchdown coming as time expires. South Sevier you guys have to travel clear to Blanding and you really think you are going to win. It could get ugly this wednesday. But by all means try your best.

Blanding looks strong, VERRY GOOD DEFENSE. Only week spot I see is in red zone, the offense can't overpower opponent with run game. But the pass game makes up for it. I look for them to play for state championship.

it is true, san juan has not lost a state championship going into it undefeated. Coach lee will always put an awesome defense on the field, you put that with a great offense look out 2a they are comming for you.....

I am not sure what all of you are talking about. Clearly the 2A North is the strongest of the two regions, is San Juan good yes. But lets be honest they have not had much if any good competition in league play.

You North teams say this every year and every year a South team is in the championship, I agree the North as a whole...the top three anyways are tough, but San Juan is right there. I see that there has been some common opponents and the North teams have scored more points, but San Juan has less point scored agianst them....try asking all those great North coaches what wins championships they will tell you D. SJ was not that great last year and still only lost to NS by 7 at there stadium....lookout this year they are good and the three North teams are playing for second.

Some of SJ points came in the fourth quarter when the JV was in instead of the varsity.

SJ went undefeated in the 2005 season and lost by three to Grand in the championship.

San Juan is legit for sure. I know that atleast one north team (Juab)thinks they are tough as addvertised. We have to our coach is an alum of SJ. I don't think their is a clear cut winner until it plays out, we may be in a three way tie for first. Weather may have alot to do with the outcome of this season. Also never count out a Millard that is down sometimes the wounded animal is the one that fights hardest. SJ is well coached as always, Monte Lee is a class act. I hope all the kids have an injury free playoff so everyone will be at their best. It is to bad that Manti lost #39 he was a stud. Good Luck!

I have been watching the bronco's pick apart a different team every week! there D is incredible i can honestly say some 4 and 5A teams would have trouble putting points up against San Juans D this eyar. I See very little weakness, the only advise i have is use your passing game. It seems to Me like you love the Power run game and dont get me wrong it's got you this far but once you hit playoff's your definatly need to bust out your secret weapons and show the state what you are made of!!! Good Luck San Juan Hope you stay injury free throughout the rest of the year. By The way You guys are a class Act Thanks.
