    ND opts out of Bowl season. Thoughts....

    I think this is a pretty good assessment of the situation. I'd love to see them play again, but if thats the team decision then I guess that is what it is. Lots of griping about the way they ran the playoff selection this go around. Great deals to be had on ND gear right now though! Happy...

    Who will we see in Bloomington 2026? ---ok maybe too soon

    Wilmington... allegedly a smaller 8th grade class this year which will shrink enrollment some. Sliding them lower into 2A.

    Help us Oswego-Wan Kenobi, you're our only hope

    First half was definitely an awesome game to watch. A tale of two defenses for sure. As the game went on and it started to teeter towards MC the writing was on the wall. Oswego held their own though in my opinion, just couldn't seal the deal. Great game to both teams.

    2A MF vs Wilmington

    With Wilmington lining up a game 2 against Le-Win next year, any word on what game 1 might be? Saw IC Catholic showing some interest and Ratsy said they weren't alone.

    tv play-by-play and analysis

    I think thats a fair outlook. Obviously the announcers don't know the kids from each program like we all do. I watched the Wilmington game again on Saturday to hear the commentary, I think the biggest disappointment in announcing was that they said Wilmingtons last State title win was in 2014...

    NIU needs help

    When we were at ISU it seemed like there was a TON of uncertainty. First, talk of cancelled Saturdays games and post poning. Then there was talk of a change of venue saturday to a campus that would allow it. Ultimately what they decided is what we got.

    2A MF vs Wilmington

    Wilmington also donated $3100 to MF to support their mascot, who is in the hospital with Leukemia. Reents and his staff and the rest of the community rallied the week before the game to get that done. Love to see the respect some programs have for each other.

    NIU needs help

    All fantastic points. Just sharing my shock that there isn't a single option.

    Day 1 takeaways

    Don't know how likely it would be, but someone that looked to be from IC staff commented on a Wilmo piece talking about our open game 1 spot and how IC would love to fill it. I agree, thats a killer season opener. LW may be 1A but they're a Wilmo type team and I think that would be a great game...

    My fault. Responding while at work and being bothered. Thanks!

    NIU needs help

    Hard to believe Illinois doesn't have a dome ANYWHERE for these kids to use. Snow isn't new... maybe playoff's for Illinois colleges are? Not sure. I hope they get this squared away.

    Day 1 takeaways

    It will be exciting to see them play next season. Looked like on Facebook that IC Catholic was trying to subtly get Wilmington's attention for a game 1 as well. That would be fun for them.

    Wilmington 49 Tri-Valley 7 FINAL

    I agree. I think it would be hard to match this years team in terms of efficiency and explosiveness. View from the West suggested this team is better than both the 2021 and 2023 2A State champ teams. I was at the 2023 game and followed that season, I didn't really consider if this team was...
