St. Thomas Aquinas (FL) vs. De La Salle (CA) Football - ESPN Broadcast Highlights

As part of the annual GEICO High School Football Kickoff weekend, no. 1 ranked St. Thomas Aquinas made the cross country trip to Concord, California to face perennial power De La Salle.

[@Liljordyyy619]

De la salle is insane. Were they under sized, yes. But the effort by the players on every single play is why they were able to move the ball. Those run handoffs looked so crisp as well

[@pauljones6629]

Wtf i didn't even see him give the rb the ball first two plays

[@alvinmack376]

As far I can remember they been the same! Attention to detail, nothing fancy just awesome effort and swarm to the ball on defense and execution and ball security on offense. Great program they got running for a very long time now

[@winstonlewis5630]

yep de la selle has been always like this

[@Tennkings-rb3eb]

I just wish they played like a team who believed they had a chance to win. Mentally DLS and fans were defeated before the game even started. They acted like Aquinas were GODS they were just happy to be apart of this i hate that. No way you win when you have no real faith you have a shot at winning.

[@ncg-sg4nb]

My brothers goin there but im staying at madison #eaglenation

[@epatongan]

Y’all must not know. De la salle were never known for having size on there team. It’s there off-season training where the linemen are running track and being timed. Why else do they run the ball 90% of the time. Stop the run you stop de la salle. Facts.

[@hookgrip4jesus310]

epa tongan It’s kinda hard to stop the run when two of your players are forced to be wrong every play. That’s the beauty of the veer; you run it right, the defense can never be right

[@MinisterManDan]

You don’t need size on the line to run the ball, size is for pass pro.

@@Tennkings-rb3eb Yeah because they aren't well coached like DLS. STA is basically a college team playing against kids and DLS still hung with them just because they're so disciplined and conditioned.

[@Tennkings-rb3eb]

Lmao college vs kids sooo they aren't the same age? Your mentality is why DLS lost. I am from fort lauderdale went to the game in 2011 and this year in concord and sat with DLS fans they were defeated before the game even started they act like STA are not humans lol. They loose football games and to teams with alot less than DLS but those teams have heart and believe they CAN win. De la salle football team and fans were just happy to be playing and hosting Aquinas. It was pathetic. They could have easily won this game but that looser mentality will get you every time. And this is the great DE LA everyone talks about? (They have no MARBLES...) Ballz.

[@Tennkings-rb3eb]

@@SharksSJ408 read my reply above. They may as well shut the football program down and focus on school because if STA is a college team what will the real college kids do to dls players on the next level. Thats 2-0

People are telling you their happy to host STA because their trying to be nice to you lol. How is that pathetic?? Anyways, I think DLS had maybe 2-3 guys with D1 offers on their team, so the fact they almost beat a recruited superteam like STA shows the type of heart they got.
