I think my Dons, got a good draw. Go Dons!!
Who got good draws? Who got bad draws?
- Thread starter DR.Eireog
- Start date
Rice as an 8 got a tough draw with Batavia and then if they win down to Normal Community and if they win a date with East St Louis in semis and then if they make it past that most like Hersey
Aurora Central Catholic is 3-6 and will win two games vs CPS teams.
Rochelle is 5-4 and plays two CPS teams and they will get Aurora Central in round three.

They can beat anyone in the state. That game is “must see TV”
Not an easy road … But… they’re among the top 5 teams I’ve seen play this year. Unfortunately, that team in the semis is the best team I’ve seen this year.
Providence will have to play the 2 teams that can beat them in round 1 and 2 in Kankakee and Morgan Park
8-1 Aurora Christian, who has their best team in a while, will have to go through Moroa, EPG and Wilmo to make it down state.
Round 1 vs Winnebago won’t be a gimmie either.

Wonder how much higher seed they would've gotten if a certain mustached guy was still HC?
MaxPreps has 6-3 Fenwick as the state's 10th ranked team. One of the teams they could face in the 6A quarters, the 8-1 Geneva Vikings, with standout wideout Bennett Konkey, is ranked 8th.
Lori Lightfoot got a bad draw!
I don’t know. Kenwood gave Provi some problems, and MP is better than Kenwood.
Richmond-Burton got a good draw (again, see 2025 3A north bracket)) as they won't have to play IC or Byron until the semi's. Going to have to beat Princeton, Manteno/St Bed, and Bmac/Dupec to get there. Not bad at all. Staying in McHenry County, I also feel like Huntley received a really good draw being in 8A. If they are as good as they think they are, they should be playing Loyola in the semi's. That's if they get bye a quarterfinal of either New Trier or HF.
Respectfully disagree. MP is the best in the CPL. They lost one game to DGN 17-12. PC let up 111 points combined to MC and Iggy. There is a hole in their defense. It will be a ball game if they play.
Lockport, and if we survive that--Lyons, and if we survive that--Oswego, and if we survive that--MC/LWE, and if we survive that--Loyola?
Possibly the worst draw in all classes. Time for some Unbiased Official Reports.
The games have to be played but I like The Brook to win the first two games but the quarters vs Oswego is going to be one of the best games this year.

I feel Quincy got a good draw. TF South (3-6/0-6) for opening round and then CPS team Chicago Goode. Not sure how (pun not intended) good of a team Goode is, but possibly Quincy may be looking at a rematch with United Township if they withstand Champaign Central and Kennedy (a CPS) team.
Yeah, but you already beat Oswego and you avoid MC/LWE/Loyola until the Semi's, which is really what us "next tier" teams should hope for.

Agreed. Rice has a gauntlet to run. 7A top bracket is loaded.
I was hoping all 3 of them would be on the other side.
SHG/Rochester in 4A south... albeit not their fault, the southern half of the class just sucks.
SHG the easier of the two avoiding Jacksonville who's playing really well atm.

I agree to an extent, but I also really underestimated Breese Central last year.
Are you ready for the "short" trip to Centralia Week 11?
Quincy should clock Sarah Goode and Kennedy if they play them. They play in a lower CPL division it will be similar to the Little Village game they won 63-8. Goode forfeited vs TF North for some reason, the fact that they have a bye is a big reason I don't like this new system. Kennedy is a slightly better situation then Goode as they went 8-1 but again they don't play in a heavy hitter CPL Division and will have a short lived playoff experience
Fair play... Breese is always tough to gauge. Someone will try and tell us Carterville is actually good for once, like they do every year. Honestly Rochester getting the Jax/Cahokia likely winner is much tougher than SHG is all I was really getting at. Kind of like how BC beat Calhoun in a classic, to get the 1 seed in 1A and their reward was CPC or GNW whilst Calhoun gets... probably ALAH... come on man!
And no... not even thinking about Centralia yet. Bethalto CM beat us last time we played them. First things first...
I took my son and his friend earlier this season to Wheaton for Fenwick and St. Francis.
Fenwick and Geneva would be a whale of a game. From what I could tell their defense isn't big but awfully fast and hits like a ton of bricks.
Agree... Quincy was handed a gift after a very mediocre showing in the weaker WB6 this season. Not often Quincy gets an easy path, so I'm sure they're very happy with it.
I feel Shepard is a bit unlucky drawing Naz compared to other the other 5-4 teams in their bracket.
Unfortunately, I don't think United Township will make it out of the opening round. Champaign Central should roll through the opening round and against Kennedy given their level of competition. Just too physical upfront for UT I think.
I think Central got a great draw until they run into Naz.
