    Reports say NDSU to Mountain West

    At least NIU will have a school kinda close to them now...

    Best programs that never won a State Title.

    In Lake County, definitely Warren and Lake Forest. Everybody else has won. I believe Warren has only made it past the quarterfinals once but they do have a title game appearance. None of Lake Forest's three trips to the semifinals has gone particularly well but they do have a winning playoff...

    NIU needs help

    I keep reading the Horizon League is a huge step down from the MAC... they're leaving a one-bid league for a more geographically close one-bid league, so what's the problem? Football-wise, yes, lots of long road trips but fans might plan a vacation around Vegas or Hawaii. Probably more likely...

    Bears

    Jordan Love is the better QB and it's not even close...yes, I know he's 3 years older but let's not get carried away. Look at completion percentage (67 to 58.1) and passer rating (104.3 to 88.2) for example. And Caleb's the one who got to play the Raiders, Saints, the 4th-place schedule. The...

    Anyone know if the 5A-8A games will still be on the U?

    I think Judge Judy and Maury will make that call... they're talking with Lane Kiffin right now to see what he would do.

    IHSA Players in College Football

    Lake Forest's Richie Hoskins with the sixth TD catch of his career for Vanderbilt in their 34-31 loss down in Texas.

    Central Suburban Conference changing format

    Seems like a good idea... Deerfield and Glenbrook North shouldn't be with the big enrollment schools. Maybe switch Maine West and Vernon Hills? So would the Division 3 winner get an automatic berth to the playoffs? Would basketball remain a two division setup?

    Marquee complications

    I absolutely despise Comcast with an intense passion... but in their defense, they've been saying all year that Marquee was going to get the White Sox treatment after the season (higher tier). At least they didn't jerk you guys around during the season... like they did to us.

    Lake County Rankings (Revised 9/29/25)

    You're right, there's a lot... I was mainly thinking NSC, should've remembered Edwards.

    Lake County Rankings (Revised 9/29/25)

    That's fine and I'm sure Crusader was mostly kidding (I think). I wouldn't ever diss the football being played in that part of the state. But I thought "midget" was a bit much considering Lake County produces NFL players... A QB from Stevenson was starting games for the Raiders last year, a...

    Lake County Rankings (Revised 9/29/25)

    First of all, you dumped on us but I'm Mr. Confident... that's typical. I stand by what I said. The depth in Lake County is far better. Yes, ESL would truck Warren. I'll take our programs over Edwardsville, etc. I'm no expert on Althoff or any of the 1A schools but I don't think Carmel...
