The have another common opponent in TV. EPG beat TV 24-21. That along with the common opponent of the Comets tells you everything you need to know. Cats win by whatever score they want it to be.
Still have doubts about Byron being better than everyone else? 27-6 and dominated this game. Beat up the bigger team in the trenches. Defense completely shut down IC. Great game by the Tigers and they had a turnover deep and missed a FG. Could have been worse than the score actually was.
Its easier when the rest of the teams in the state are also looking for the exact same weeks. The pool of potential opponents will be much larger than what it is now.
Wilmington will run away and hide in this one. Downs was able to pull the upset Saturday but mainly because RockRidge fell apart. Downs was just steady the entire game. It didn't matter who won that matchup though. Wilmington was always going to walk in this game. As well as the Semi-final and...
ICCP is a very good program and their regular season schedule is as tough as anyone. Byron is loaded and ICCP has not played a team this year that will ground and pound them in the run game like Byron will in this matchup. The game could be close and ICCP is good enough to beat them. Last 2...
Wilmington will win comfortably. Seneca is decent but close games against St Joe and Riverdale let me know they aren’t ready for what’s coming. Cats Big in this one.
Coal City beat a very avg Sterling team but beat them handily. Dixon is another animal. One loss and it was to Byron. I believe...
Wilmington not only will win this game they will walk in every round including the title game. The only team in 2A that has a chance is Rockridge and I would put Wilmington as at least 2 score favorites in that game.
Manteno did a nice job this season but I think it will be short lived in the...
Comer at RC- Not sure what to think of this game. Just glad the Comets were able to get one. Hopefully can end the season on a good note.
Peotone at Herscher- Herscher has pulled off some late game heroics to beat Manteno and R-C this season. I would like to say I see them winning this game...
RC vs Herscher: Comets have been playing well. Tigers are at home. Got a feeling the Comets are going to come to play in this one. I like the Comets 28 Tigers 14.
Coal City rolls big but I think the Blue Devils will be able to move the ball on the Coalers. Might keep the clock from running at...
In 2A Wilmington walks to the title. Seneca/EPG are the biggest threats to them and I can’t really see either team giving them a game. In 3A on the other hand it’s a different animal. Byron and Hope Academy are both very solid in the north and would pose some problems. The Byron team is on a...
Reed-Custer playoff points are at 27. Of the teams that are 3-3 they are middle to higher end of the playoff points. Also there will be 4-5 high playoff points teams getting in this year. All 5-4 teams will be in. Lot of work to do for the Comets next week but I believe a win gets them in.
Comets over Bulldogs: Comet defense proves it can play last week. Should be able to do enough to win against the Bulldogs. Comets 24 Bulldogs 7
Coal City over Bloom and I think a running clock will be happening in this one. Coalers 42-7. 42-0 before Blooms put one in late.
Herscher over...
Manteno/Plano: went as expected. Would have thought Manteno would have handled them a little easier but any given Friday night I guess.
Wilmington/Sandwich: also as expected. Wilmington won’t have a competitive game until Coal City week 9.
Reed-Custer/Harvard: an interesting game. Harvard...
