ORLANDO \u2014 A few thoughts on Miami Central\u2019s 24-10 win over Armwood in the Florida Class 6A football championship game.<\/p>\n
Stock watch:<\/strong>\u00a0Jones came into Saturday\u2019s game as a FIU verbal commitment and likely left Saturday\u2019s game with several new suitors. Jones said Miami was his dream school and he flashed the \u201cU\u201d but there might be other options as well. Armwood linebacker Jordan Griffin hads 19 tackles, three tackles for loss and two forced fumbles. The Wisconsin commitment left it all out on the field and was crushed after the game.<\/p>\n Mixed on Cowart: <\/strong>Five-star prospect Byron Cowart had a big sack nullified because of a penalty but he did knock Central quarterback Jerrod Thomas out on the play and forced him to miss a few series. Otherwise Cowart just didn\u2019t rise to the opportunity despite being blocked one-on-one for most of the game. He had two tackles and a tackle for loss.<\/p>\n Flag on the Play: <\/strong>Even in victory Central kept the officiating crew active. The Rockets were flagged 17 times for 152 yards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ORLANDO \u2014 A few thoughts on Miami Central\u2019s 24-10 win over Armwood in the Florida Class 6A football championship game.

\nWhat it means:<\/strong>\u00a0Miami Central (13-1) won its third 6A title in as many years and fourth in five years. The Rockets rushed for 318 yards with Anthony Jones (29 carries, 199 yards, 3TDs) and Cedric Miller (12 carries, 116 yards) doing the bulk of the damage. Armwood (14-1) entered this year with one of the best defenses in the state according to the statistics. However, the toughness of the Hawks\u2019 schedule was questioned and Saturday\u2019s result was one of the doubters.<\/p>\n
