    Opening round games are on October 24?

    I noticed that all of the opening round games are on October 24, which is a Saturday. This will likely lead to all of the following rounds to be on a Saturday as well as coaches desire an extra day of preparation. This is ruining the concept of Friday night lights. Maybe if the IHSA installed a...

    IHSA playoff seeding process.....

    Completely agree. The South would LOVE to face a CPS school for an Opening Round scrimmage to test their JV or a 1st Round scrimmage in which two CPS schools won for the right to lose to a JV team from Breese, Jacksonville, SHG, Mt. Zion or Rochester. Let the North have their shot at the likes...

    CS8 Predictions Week 9

    I concur with 8te Open. My acquaintances in Quincy love that place. One of whom was a teammate of Roamin's on the 2004 team.

    CS8 Predictions Week 9

    I think the Raiders will duplicate their ground control effort as it kept SHG below 20.

    Rochester 28 SHG 29 Final

    Not at all. We are discussing how the North and South differ in the quality of opponent in the path to the quarter finals. I contend the North has the easy games as they are typically facing CPS schools in the early rounds. Of course we will see an Olney or Macomb go 9-0 and then lose in the...

    What's the call?

    Silly. Shouldn't be a flag. Make jumping in the air to catch a ball illegal if theyre going to turn football into this.

    Rochester 28 SHG 29 Final

    You raised a very interesting point when it comes to the differences between the North and the South. When you run the numbers, and I only do it for 4A because this is where I see the most broad geographical spread across the state in respect to the 4A schools. I could do it for 5A as well...

    Rochester 28 SHG 29 Final

    And yet you're still commenting. Odd how people will get upset when their energy is matched. Focus on Chatham. They are more important this interaction.

    IHSA playoff seeding process.....

    Exactly as I stated. Attached is the IHSA Outlook. You will find Montini is listed as #20 seed as it stands today. When the brackets are geographically separated for classes 1-6, they are a #9 seed. Football Outlook - IHSA I also attached the bracket in which they would be placed if things...

    Q of the Week: How will you define success of the expanded IHSA state football playoff system

    Frankly, whether it's 32 or 48 with top 16 getting a bye, I am good with seeding 1-32 as the only reasonable option. After the opening round, re-seed the brackets according to their original seeding. For example, in classes 1-6, the #16 will play #17 for the chance to play #1 in the 1st round...
