    Watching less NFL FB lately?

    The overall product has become bland, generic and mediocre......all teams pretty much play and look the same to me. The teams could swap uniforms and I couldn't tell and wouldn't know. Broadcast over-saturation as well.....it's great though for taking a really good nap.

    Naz in 5A

    Perhaps they will never seed and bracket 1-32 because there would be too many awful slaughters, massacres, total mismatches and running clocks in mass quantities and heavy doses in the first 2-3 rounds in all classes?! Imagine eight 1/32, 2/31, 3/30 and etc awful match-ups for a grand total of...

    Question on the Ochs of Anti, Sterling

    I can vouch that Sterling is a very good and fine football team in all phases of the game. I have not seen any weaknesses. Their defense is superb and sets up their offense. They are my pick to win 5A.....because of their defense and it's the difference.

    Geneseo (6-2) @ Morris (6-2)

    This year's Geneseo team is not a typical Geneseo-like team and subpar by Geneseo standards. They are not very strong, good or tough in the front 7 on both sides of the ball. If Morris doesn't mess around and just runs, pounds and attacks straight ahead on both sides of the ball......they should...

    Sterling Golden Warriors

    Sterling is the real deal and they have a legitimate shot or opportunity to play on Thanksgiving weekend this year. Excellent team quickness, speed and power on both sides of the ball. They come off the ball very well and have enough good depth. Very well-coached and prepared. They attack very...

    Which team has had the most significant era as THE program

    No....I disagree. I'm old enough and watched Geneseo football since 1960. Geneseo's best football teams were in the era of 1965 thru 1970. They were dominate, a juggernaut and put on football clinics every Friday night regardless of their competition.....this era of Geneseo football was...

    The State of State colleges....

    Well....then that means not much has changed at the UIUC campus in 40 years going all the way back to the 1970's. It was Asia of the Midwest with Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and etc Asian students all over the place back then. Heck, I was in the extreme minority as a white native Illinois...

    The IHSA should pull a Big East

    This entire thread and almost other threads on this subject provide all the justifications and reasons for private/public separation.......in addition to just plain simple common sense.

    New years day bowl games?

    Way too many bowl games and too many that are too meaningless to most fans. And then some teams haven't played a game in 20-30 days. Not exactly a lot of good football being played. Four week 16-team tournament for the national championship for some good football, fun, drama and excitement. All...

    If separation happened how would it work?

    Whoa and hold on there ramblinman. Don't speak/post on behalf of all public schools and their supporters with such a one-stroke very broad and wide brush with such strong language and meaning that is simply not true. Geneseo has had their fair amount of both success and non-success against...

    DeKalb - Montini

    Geneseo being the smallest enrollment school (814) beat and handled the largest enrollment school Dekalb (1640) in the NIB12(-2) conference in week 9, 21-14. After Geneseo fans were re-calibrated to Montini's current personnel, talent and program state in last year's 5A semi-final...

    It's On......Geneseo At Phillips

    Geneseo doesn't have the speed relative to Phillips obviously.....but they do look much faster in mud so we won't be seeing their speed version at Gately. So I guess the Maple Leafs will just have to get a lot of their slower 11 bodies maximizing body contact time on Phillips to contain or slow...
