What’s did we learn week 6!?!?!

[LakeCtyNewt]

I guess we have playoff qualifiers ?

1 - That this isn’t the Mt Carmel I had on my bingo card.
2 - That Wheaton North and Conant’s seats at the table are on hold.
3 - That no one had Prarie Ridge and Stevenson a combined 1-11.
4 - That Williamsville ran out of bullets
5 - That someone has to explain Montini to me like I’m 5.
6 - That the scoreboard operator for Geneva-Batavia is gonna need a break.
7 - That Edwardsville is bad bad
8 - That Morris has a nickname and they’re back
9 - That the unexpected demise of Providence lasted - a week.
10 - That if there is a positive to the newly jacked up playoff format is that teams like Joliet Central get in.

That’s all for now

11. Sounds like MC has caught the "undisciplines" from ESL

 

[pjjp]

That Brother Rice didn’t have a lot of returning starters and are led by a freshman QB, but they’re awfully good.

Edwardsville’s fall from what they were is something. I hate to see it.

 

[oldfan123]

Lemont still doesn’t have a nickname & Oak Lawn vs Richards might be something this year

 

[jha618]

That arguably the second biggest game to date in the state doesnt even have a thread on the board.

 

[SiuCubFan8]

That the CCL Green is again one of the most entertaining /competitive grouping of teams in the state.

 

[ODERTY1]

What game?

 

[jha618]

What game?

MC vs BR

 

[4Afan]

8 - where is Morris back from? over the last 4 years Morris has 3 semifinal appearances.

 

[McCaravan]

MC vs BR

There was a really, really bad post by juvenile poster that went way over the moral line later last night that got that one flushed.

Start a new one

 

[McCaravan]

They have issue to fix without a doubt but MC will still be a force in the 8A playoffs.

 

[LakeCtyNewt]

8 - where is Morris back from? over the last 4 years Morris has 3 semifinal appearances.

Well they’re unbeaten for starters - so they appear to be a state title contender Vs a team that was making the playoffs and competing

 

[oldfan123]

That Westmont could go 4-1 or 5-0 & not make the playoffs

 

[Colin2299]

That the playoffs are more open this year and look to be outstanding.

That Geneva can beat you in multiple ways.

 

[80sRambler]

That a very good 8A team is going to get screwed in the playoffs with an early round matchup with MC.

 

[Edgytim]

That Westmont could go 4-1 or 5-0 & not make the playoffs

The 6 game minimum is not in this expanded playoff FYI....Westmont will become a big storyline over the next few weeks....I know Soucie has also been talking alot about the situation as well.

 

[SilverHelmet]

That a very good 8A team is going to get screwed in the playoffs with an early round matchup with MC.

It happens every year and will continue for as long as they use the current system. Same has happened in years when ESL picked up a few out so state losses.

 

[oldsica99]

Don’t use a break through banner for your players to run through on Homecoming. Been a strange year for St Laurence

Morris looks good, big 4A school but I think Rochester and Montini will have something to say, I like Dixon as well in 4A

That special teams matter, ask MC about BR’s average starting field position

Michael Vick was in town Saturday coaching against Chicago State and crazy more fans at the BR/MC game. Would either school agree to play at a neutral site like SeatGeek and possibly pack the place?! Or does it take away from the experience

 

[RamblerPop1]

That Jordan Lynch losing again is an amazing thing given the amount of talent he has recruited.

 

[Still Missing34]

Have we come to the age when even Private School fans are throwing shade over recruiting?

 

[cigaros]

That Westmont could go 4-1 or 5-0 & not make the playoffs

It is very possible for about a dozen 2-7 teams will make the playoffs. Westmont is definitely in.

As a Rochester fan, I see Morris as the true favorite in the North. While nearly of us want to see a rematch of last year vs Montini, I think Morris is better. Montini defense has been suspect and the run seems to be their achilles heel

That if we've learned anything this year, it's that Rochester is more of a "we'll just show you how bad you really are" kind of team. No time for talkies, just big hits, INT's, and tuddies...

26. That SHG was saving their best against QND for Lanphier this week.

I think Montini is just as strong as last year, a little different CCL schedule makes a difference. Watched a few games online and definitely need to clean up a few things defensively. Morris will be right there as though and will be looking for rematch as well.

As a former coach I’d like to see how Rochester installs their offense. One of the top offensive minds in the game. If Coach Leonard ever has a clinic send it my way please lol

Morris will score on Rochester and Montini. Just don’t think they will get enough stops on defense to beat either.

How good is Morris QB? Looks legit on film, bigger than most defensive linemen in 4A.

They’re not far off defensively from what I’ve seen. With a few tweaks and utilizing some of the other guys on a deep roster, I think they could slow either of them down.

He is massive and appears to be the real deal. Amazing athlete, but personally I'd like to see him improve his mid range passing.

Defense is still very much an unknown to me because they have yet to truly be tested. Pass defense will always be their downfall which isn't a good thing when you have to go through Montini and Rochester.

He clinics every winter at SHG. Forget the name of the clinic however…

Lots of stuff of his on YouTube and podcast
