The women's arguement is a joke. Average mens high school basketball would beat NCAA woman's champs with ease. Too much athletism!

And I think most of the best high school teams could beat the best D3 teams. Most of the best HS teams have 10-15 D1 recruits.

Wisconsin Whitewater or Mount Union would beat the daylights out of the best HS team. 50+ point margin

I'm not so sure. I think a John Curtis or Katy TX or DE LA Salle (Ca) could hang around with a D3 team. I doubt they would win, but I do not think it would be a 50 point margin.

Because they're fricking good. Mt Union and Whitewater have D1 transfers. They send players to the NFL from time to time. They'd beat the piss out of a group of high school players.

The best high school team would have holes that would be exposed and would have a severe depth issue.

I was having a discussion with a buddy about high school football teams playing a college team (division III). He thinks the best high school football team could beat the best division III team. I said no way. What does the MSB say? Also, he thinks the woman's NCAA basketball champions could beat the best HS boys team I said no freaking way


You are right and your friend has no clue. Weaker DIII football teams would crush the best high school teams...20-22 year olds vs. 16-17 year olds, etc. Lots of injuries for the high schoolers too!

I could see beating some D3 programs, as there's some absolute shite for programs (Trine U. in indiana has OL that would maybe be TEs in other levels). But I'd take the college team almost all the time w/o question

D2...No

Any D1

Not to mention that most of their players are full grown men.
