    The Playoff Expansion Bylaw PASSED!

    there's nothing different about that, they start in round of 32, just like now.

    The Playoff Expansion Bylaw PASSED!

    here was my projected 48 team 8A a couple weeks before season's end (LWE as 2 seed), but re-creating this is more work than I'm willing to do right now. Gives you an idea, however:

    ESL VS FENWICK 6A

    Funny, before reading this thread I had just texted my buddies that ESL lack of urgency at end of game was like the Russians not pulling their goalie.

    Any insights on Fremd?

    Back to topic of post, my feedback based on our game... Fremd Offense- Obviously centered around the QB... he is really impressive. Evanston's DLine was strong (despite our record) and we put good pressure on him, but only 1 sack. He's really good an eluding pressure and finding someone...

    Fremd 34 Bolingbrook 33 F

    I didn't know anything about their history, but I had to look up what they did in 1992 because I played a year (1993) with Keith Lozowski at Northwestern... that kid was an absolute stud! Sure enough, in '92 it looks like they were 10-0 before losing in 2nd round.

    Expanded playoffs - joke

    Been a lot of discussions on this topic, and although I’m on record in support, doesn’t stop me from laughing hard at this, enjoy! Coach of 2-8 team

    LW-East 55 Palatine 13 FINAL

    It’s absolutely crazy how accurate these kids can be at hs level. That 👆is how I felt when we played Fremd

    CPS Round 1 stats.

    Yep, blowouts continue... as I said earlier in thread: Finally, there are going to be a lot of blowouts in the large school classes because the best players are congregating at a select number of schools. Enrollment is a crude way to group football programs at this point, if you wanted really...

    CPS Round 1 stats.

    Keeping the current playoff rules, HF misses playoffs and team they just beat 56-8 is in 🤷‍♂️. As long as it’s purely based on records, there will be teams that out of the playoffs that are obviously stronger than teams in the playoffs. I’m for a system where any school who wants to...

    CPS Round 1 stats.

    A 3 win Naperville central play in vs several of the teams in 8A field would have resulted in a better opponent for one of the top teams. Similar story for St Ignatius, Nequa Valley, Niles Notre Dame, others. The proposed 48 team field would allow the stronger teams among seeds 17-48 to advance...

    CPS Round 1 stats.

    A playoff expansion with byes for top teams & play-in for weaker teams would result in more competitive games.

    CPS Round 1 stats.

    I agree that safety should be the primary concern in these matchups, but I don’t agree that the current system is necessarily much better than the proposed expanded system in preventing safety concerns. At least in the large classes, when I looked at what an expansion looked like, it involved...

    Feeto's Friday Night Upset Week #9

    Nice wins for GBS over York and Palatine early in season, but just from conference play, wouldn't see them as a clear favorite here. We played both teams about the same through 3 quarters, (6-15 against GBS, 6-21 against NT) before NT got a couple of big plays and scores in 4th quarter. I...

    Sandburg at LW-East Tonight

    Oh, just noticed that Glenbard West is not currently projected 8A. I think they are either going to be largest 7A team, or smallest 8A team. If they go 8A at 8-1, then LWE would be bumped back one spot.
