ICE Power Rankings
1) Wilmington - This is the week
2) Coal City - Licking their chops for a shot at the champ
3) Peotone - The Route 50 Rumble results say it all
4) Manteno - See above
5) Reed-Custer - RC looked bad against Wilmo, but that may not be a great gauge
6) Lisle - The close win against Streator gives me a bad feeling about this week
7) Herscher - Cemented into 7th from the head to head result
8) Streator - It is what it is
Lisle (4-4) @ Reed-Custer (3-5) - Like I said in the rankings, the close wins that Lisle had against Herscher and Streator compared to the comfortable wins that RC had against them, lead me to believe that RC has to be have the edge. I do think this one will be close and aside from the big showdown in CC this week, these may two of the more evenly matched teams in all of the ICE in any given week. Any other week I think this is GOTW. RC shows out at home one last guaranteed time. RC 28 Lisle 21
Herscher (1-7) @ Peotone (6-2) - Peotone flying high after last week. No chance it affects them hear though. Tone 53 Herscher 7
Manteno (5-3) @ Streator (1-7) - Manteno morale in the dumps after last week? Even if that's the case, it won't matter here. Manteno 36 Streator 10
Wilmington (8-0) - Coal City (7-1) - GOTW!!!!!! This game has been referenced countless times all year and it's finally time to see who the Champ of the ICE is. Wilmo has the undefeated season in tact and would like to keep the momentum going into the playoffs. CC is having a year and even people around hammerville are saying that this game is giving more worry than it has in years prior. I personally believe if there was any year within the last 5 that CC could beat the Cats, that this is it. I think it's going to be a physical grinding game by Wilmo offense and CC will be prepared for the same old song and dance. Honestly a coin flip in my opinion but I think Wilmo has had the Coaler's number for so long that Reents will pull it out. Wilmo 24 CC 17
